they got no seoul and another b-scene

one of our favorite happy hour stops has scaled back on the happy. part of an alarming trend among the upscale HH spots. notably absent from the HH menu, the fried goat cheese balls with pickled red onions drizzled with honey. we still managed to enjoy ourselves.

some of the happy hour food offerings and several varieties of sherry for only $1 per glass.


attended b-scene at the blanton museum of art. we enjoyed the member's lounge with some gifts, free white sangria and el john selector (from thievery corp) as DJ.

free sangria is a good enough reason to buy a membership!

not in the face played a show on the inside stage.

600,000 pennies, 800 communion wafers and 2,000 bones all cloaked behind a black veil . It is called Mission/Missions (How to build a Cathedral). part of the blanton's permanent collection by Cildo Meireles

I made a run down to san antonio to fetch my brother and a few of his new army friends. they got released late so I killed some time in the seoul market right by base. I was shopping for my wife, emailed her pictures of things and called her so she could instruct me on which items she wanted. THEN, when I took a pic of their menu, this lady got very upset at me. she really chewed me out good.
I took the army crew for a float down the river. this being a drought year has the river going slow... we ended up doing a lot of paddling to get where we had planned to get out. I did not take a phone or camera after last weekend's iphone river loss. kat says I am having a knee-jerk reaction and am now too cautious. missed some hilarious river pics. what a sight to see army dudes deflating their rafts on the dock by smashing them with their person. after the long float, we landed at deep eddy cabaret and then took them to guero's

this was only the third margarita of his life. we've set the bar pretty high once again. nothing but top shelf ingredients and fresh lime juice.

let the kids destroy some fried oreo from pluckers

drove the van to the shop where they will install a 300 ci engine that will double the current torque and hp. I had one false start, made it about 100 ft and ran out of gas!


as I am nowhere near done working on kat's 72 bmw daily driver, and it was not very efficient for me to be using the excursion as my daily driver, I found kat a e30. these cars are known for good mpg, and reliability (when properly maintained). and the ice cold a/c is a welcome modern comfort too.
