If it is still operating, consider spending part of Saturday at Luckenbach. Not far from Fredericksburg. ice cold beer and music under oak trees.

Gruene Hall tomorrow for long necks horse shoes and live music after golf

I’ve been drinking. Hush. Just left Messina Hof with 6 bottles.

Hey, I was a fan of the use of the double-negative. Not not judging you = judging you.

Do you hold out your pinky when you drink?

Go to Austin and drive slow on Guadalupe by the UT campus around 4 or 5 o’clock. Talent is completely inadequate to describe.

Man..as a child I had a Z50 and let my friend ride it..his Dad bought him a YZ-80 and he was scared of it. Never rode it after a light spill. Then I got a POS Suzuki RS-125..couldnt even touch the ground, and he said you just had to get one bigger than me. I said I will trade mine for yours..he declined. I have never had such a want as a YZ-80, even into adulthood for any vehicle. I mowed lawns at 13 YO hoping to save up over a summer..just like $600 at the time. Of course I blew the money on candy and gum and pinball at the Handy Andy, Dirt Bike mag, etc.
That suspension, travel, and yellow, blue smoke baby..



Sorry just reminiscing. Tiny looking now

Maybe. Hell if I’m hammered who knows

Getting hammered off wine is not a good idea.

I was sampling ports and dessert wines. 20% by volume. It’s a lot easier than you think. My favorite tawny port is a Messina Hof

Sounds like a job opportunity for you.

I worked at a corpo hotel once... never again.

I’m big into wine. As far as tawny ports go, my favorites are from Australia. I don’t drink too many tawny ports anymore though. I was really big into Australian wines back around 2000-2005. They have some seriously old tawny port stocks in some of those Australian wineries. Their fortified tokays and muscats are really good too.

Turn in your man card immediately.

That would be the TU campus.

 

[GroverCleveland]

That would be the TU campus.

I stand corrected.

 

[UT_Dutchman]

You’d be shocked. It’s second in the country only to Napa Valley I believe for wine country destinations

We liked the Russian Valley better than Napa.
Also on the river walk try out Durty Nelly's Irish pub.

I don’t even know what a tawny port or desert wine is.

That’s because you're an uncultured heathen.

Lets see what mistakes an old man that is hung over will make this morning.

I was thinking more along the lines of consulting and training. Seems like a needed addition to their portfolio.

I'm sure you meant to say Texas because there's only one real UT, and it ain't in Austin.

That's what it was. It was 6 months of herding cats at the same Marriott.

Fair enough.

Never thought of corporate "culture" like herding cats, but it really does seem appropriate - especially in larger corporations - they all gravitate toward bureaucracies at some bloat point.
