Re: Television (no longer temporary)
Is anyone watching the new season of Top Chef (in Houston this time)? The challenge this past week was pretty cool. 2 person teams, making two dishes that look the same but taste totally different. Interesting idea. I'm surprised how well the chef who lost his sense of smell and taste because of Co...

Re: Electric Vehicles
There are still some federal credits available, I think. It was based on vehicle sales, so Tesla's have all been used. Though there was talk of a new round being available which would allow new Tesla buyers to get a credit again. Some states also offer credits in addition to the federal credits.

Re: Electric Vehicles
It's me, and I agree wholeheartedly with the above post. The only drawback so far is the monthly payment. I got through about 2 months of just using a supercharger and not plugging in at home. I was planning on doing that exclusively, and then the free miles I got from phxgators from his referral r...

Re: Electric Vehicles
I have a Model 3 (pretty sure there's a Model Y owner here too, but I'll let him speak for himself). I fucking love it. If we can take the Elon filter off of this company (man does he need to just shut the hell up), they really are the best option as far as range, reliability, features, and not catc...

Re: What?? Are you drinking?
I found that Deschutes has an NA version of their Black Butte Porter. It's been a while since I had the real thing, but the NA version tasted just like I remembered it. I'm not a huge porter fan, but will definitely buy it again.

Re: What?? Are you drinking?
I now feel guilty in advance about drinking when meeting any Swampers in the future. This is something I've talked with my wife about several times actually. I've tried to make sure she knows that if she has a drink or two, it's fine with me. But she has cut her drinking back (which was nowhere nea...

Probably the same for most of you, but I know, or know of, more covid positive cases in the last 2 weeks than at any point over the last two years. Pretty staggering, really.
