Its all good.

Unless you've keyed in the word yourself, auto-correct typically does more harm than good sometimes. For example, I had text'd a friend that I needed paper plates for a cookout and didn't proof read the text... I got a reply asking "Why do you need paper slaves?" *insert head scratch*

 

I think I have a very big problem on my hands.... Bttrthnezrr3 turned me on to a dog that her father had to find a home for last month and he is a mess... Right now the mess is very messy and it's bad.. He found an almost empty cardboard grease gun cartridge of molybdenum graphite synthetic grease and ripped it up. The stuff is everywhere and he is covered with it.. He even has it on a cow skull he dragged up to the house and is chewing to pieces on the porch.... Dragging up old combat boots and huge skulls is kind of humorous but this grease is tough stuff that is used in CV joints and stuff like that and won't come off... At least the critters fur is mostly black or silver with black ticking but that makes it hard to see where I need to wash him....

 

Sorry Coyote, but all I can do is smile. Some dogs are just plain crazy - they make me smile the most. Yesterday was a real face day!

 

He isn't as crazy as the one that disappeared but adjusting well as can be expected of a cattle dog... He is a big one and 13 months from reaching full maturity.. The larger dogs of a breed seem to be more laid back, I just hope he doesn't freak out over soap and water... He looks very sad sitting outside alone on the porch, I'm a pushover for these crazy critters.

 

I *always* take RR tracks going as fast as possible...It actually minimizes the bumping. It makes me really crazy when I don't have a clear lane to get some speed up before crossing them and then I have to bang and bump over both sets of tracks like the scaredy-cats creeping over them like their freaking car is going to flat fall apart...GET OUT OF MY WAY I'm not stoppinggggggg.....

 

whats up "whores". long time no fitfreak

 

sjdhfjsdhfkjh hoarrrr

 

Whoa. Don't hate.

I take rail road tracks at 5-10 mph at most. When in my car..but I'm low with 12/10k spring rates, a front lip and an exhaust that HKS attempted to make as low as possible.

/not fit

 

I know rite. Still got your GE?

 

Actually, that was my intention... on most railroad crossings, the slope up to and out of the track area isn't too steep and the track area is mostly level. So, I would go fast too, to avoid the "washboard-ish" bumping.

The problem was... I didn't realize how steep the area before and after the tracks were. I'd brake, except it was pretty much too late by then.

ADD to that, for some bizarre reason... the tracks (only one set actually) and what little pavement between them was LOWER than the outer pavement. As if something was pushing the outside pavement into that slope shape.

So, when I saw it, I was like "WHAT THE HELL?!? CRAP!"

 

Thread bumpage!

Sitting in the auto classroom and felling like a fatty...just nommed on 4 potato tacos from Taco Bell and sipping on an Arizona tea.

 

^ Crunchwrap Supremes are only 88 cents now! God, I hate to admit it, but I love those things...

 

I seldom do the fast food thing but the Mexican Telephone Company and Subway are where I usually stop when I am on the road miles from home and haven't eaten all day. I like the Nacho Supreme and Steak Burrito...

 

i'm a grilled stuffed burrito fan...with chicken.

 

It would really make me happy if there were some real authentic Mexican food in this part of the state... There are just enough Mexicans here to make it difficult to find beef tripe so I have to kiss up to the butcher at the store I shop at if I want to make menudo.... Beef tongue is impossible to get a hold of without driving to a big city with stores that cater to the Mexican population... At least my wife can make real tortillas so it ain't all bad.

 

I never had one of those, whats in them?

Great... now I want nachos. Thanks a lot Dee. Subway has some good sandwiches though, the tuna is my fav in particular. Way better than places like Quizzos, which everything tastes the same... and is soggy as heck.

*high fives* Nice choice in stuffed burrito. Those things are amazing with 3 or 4 packets of their fire sauce (red packet).

Same here, its kinda hard to find proper Mexican food places around here. Either have to hear about them by word of mouth or keep a sharp eye out for a place.

 

I would think that there would be a lot of good Mexican places down there... There was one intersection that I was stuck at while in Pearland where there was a flea market... Man it looked like Matamoros there were thousands of Mexicans coming an going from that place and inside... They had cops directing traffic and it still took forever to get out of there.

 

I don't really know what Pearland has to offer because that city is growing so quick that I can barely get around it due to construction and heavy traffic. Wouldn't doubt the traffic jam though, I barely go there because its a hastle getting around and if I do go its usually within a 2 mile radius of 288 every three months.

All of the Mexican food places in I've seen so far are pretty much on the outskirts of the towns or "blended in" with a cluster of buildings. Hard to spot, but they are around here... usually with horrid lots that can make 2WD pick up trucks scrape.

 

I was really surprised at how bad the traffic was there, especially on a Sunday... What you say about the way the restaurants and the parking at them is true.. I remembered a post of yours awhile back where you spoke of the poor condition of them and thought the first one I saw must be the place you were talking about but they all were like that and I saw quite a few on one street. It was so congested there compared to here that we waited until we reached Huntsville to get something to eat.

 

Traffic is ridiculous in Pearland almost all the time. The amount of traffic and amount of people that drive erratically in that city is dumbfounding. Everyone is either yapping on the phone, texting, or recklessly darting across lanes. There were several times that I've seen the main exits into Pearland being backed up from the signal all the way to were the exit merges from 288.

And it place I was talking about a while back as Angleton House of Tacos in Angleton off of highway 35. That lot gets worse and worse each time I go to it. There is a drop off from 35's surface to A.H.O.T.'s driveway and originally it was barely a 2 inch drop. Now, it eroded down to a 4 to 5 inch drop and I can barely make it in there even though I'm slightly taller than factory with the 205/55R15s.

So to save the hastle (and a $200+ lip), I just park at the pawn shop lot across the street. Easy in and out. LOL
