I'm confused...you're talking about the ACL being held NOW? MIGHT hit 80 tomorrow?

And this is just me but I just can't deal with the smell of weed. It turns my stomach something awful when I've been in the sun for that long and eaten whatever re-warmed over-priced food I chose to go with.

I suppose this is what getting old is. I need a lawn to yell at people to get off of.
That's pretty funny.

& I agree with the rest of your post Spacepup....except I've always liked the smell.


ScoPro, can't help with the puffy taco. Vivo's is overpriced & average at best, I go to Henry's in SA when i need to satisfy a puffy taco fix.

He was talking about the toasty-ness of AquaFest - always the end of August.

There's no place like El Mat's anymore. Do you like El Patio? It's my favorite old school restaurant. They used to have puffy tacos, but not anymore. Not to my knowledge anyway, but the tacos are pretty good, open faced. Queso is great as always, with whole, fried tortillas. If you're in Dallas, go to Desperado's on Greeneville near Lover's Lane. They have puffy tacos, but it's the Desperado's Tacos that are pretty much out of this world.

Quit whining. Later on today when you wake up, we're all going to awake to another reality and that's the Central Texas drought. Wait until you read the Statesman. Mean while, stop sniveling.
