re: Any Houston area folks have an absurd property tax appraisal?
Posted by bamaphan13 on 4/23/25 at 2:39 pm
10% max is with homestead exemption.
If you aren’t in the house on Jan 1 you can’t get it for current year. Be sure and it though so you have it for next.

In truth Dunlap would have been better served by cutting his teeth a little longer.
Nobody would turn down what he did after AMEX absolute insanity to give up that two year extension.
Win at Baracuda tells you there is talent there just the week to week consistency is not.

re: Has Trump tried to become an Augusta member?
Posted by bamaphan13 on 4/14/25 at 3:41 pm
I don’t know how much you try to become a member. Always understood if you start trying to become a member then you will never become one.
At this point the club probably doesn’t want the circus and headaches that come along with Trump.

Only been to Antigua in the Caribbean but much better than 30a. Price points may be comparable at current rates.
I love the Yucatán. Easy 2+ hour flight from Houston. Just stay away from the AIs and large resorts. We get a condo down there just about every year at this point. Cheaper than 30a for sure

I've only been to Rosemary and on the actual beach and water it doesn't get much better. Once you are off the beach it is so damn upity it takes away from the overall experience.
I assume the rest of 30A is that way.
Plus the times I have been are late August once most of the crowds+kids are back in school. I cannot imagine what it looks like in June/July.

DJ's give a frick went out the door in November 2020 when he put the green jacket on.
LIV money in 2022 made that $100 mil+ reasons to never have to worry about money on top the pile of cash he made on tour.

re: In NYC, how to get started on subway
Posted by bamaphan13 on 3/5/25 at 9:02 pm
NYC Subway in Manhattan may be the easiest to understand in the world.
Google Maps now makes it stupid easy and gives step by step even if transfer to another line is needed.

re: Has anyone ever done one of those music cruises?
Posted by bamaphan13 on 2/11/25 at 11:09 am

That Jam Cruise lineup looks like it could be the same from 2005.
How come of those bands make enough of a living to keep it going for 20 yrs I will never know.

What a fricking sill arse sport at this rate.
Now the Paul fight is off and he signed a 4 fight deal with the Saudi group.
Until something changes again.

No need to keep kicking the guy after he has moved on.
We did win the conference with him as the starter and prior to 2007 that was a pretty BFD.

re: Planning college trips this summer..

The cost to achieve any degree needs to be measured against the "output," financial or otherwise. Chasing your passion obviously counts 800% more than annual salary. Spending $80k on a "multi-disciplinary studies" degree distasteful, but spending $150, 200k+ is just insane. Kids work nothing jobs like serving to be flexible with school schedules. Or, they could take night classes and be a gopher at a construction management firm and actually learn shite both ways.
This is good advice but try selling that to a HS kids that wants the typical SEC college experience.
I was working as server most of my way through school and had no where near that debt load. I was OOS that transitioned to in-state. 20+ yrs ago Alabama was cheap OOS and there was path to in-state.
Things are different nowadays though.
Living in Houston and think UH should a more viable option for kids but the commuter aspect and location just suck. Not sure how much of an on campus social experience there is to it.

I did it at Alabama and made good friends. Nobody should take it too serious after the first and second year.
re: Planning college trips this summer..

UH is a good school and can set you up in the 4th largest city in the nation but commuter aspect and location really drag it down.
