    Yeah, I saw that a week or so ago at the HEB in Leander and Cedar Park; (pic below from 8/13 in CP), one of my peeps confirmed it is at the G'town location as well. I think it was made possible when Abbott released some of the rules about where breweries could and couldn't sell, due to COVID.

    It's $18/4 pack, OTD at PP. $16.62, plus tax. About the same at HEB, but you'll have to pay 8.25% on top of that. However, no need to tip the person running the register there, so for larger purchases, like the 4 - 4 packs I am running to Colorado for an out of state buddy next month, I'll be hitting up HEB.

    Always need mods! :)
    Anyone had a shop replace a u-joint? I have one with a ridiculous amount of play, and I'm curious what that's gonna cost me. I've also recently discovered that I'm due for new tires, an alignment, and possibly the TC actuator...yippee!!!
    ;p

    Uh, I live a mile from Valentina’s and happen to be awake. It’s pouring hard here right now. Just pissing rain with heavy thunder and lightning.

    I vote we postpone until next week.

    Canada is out for today, I can make next week. I just mentioned to Zach we should have planned this before, as we could have used the rain earlier. o_O

    Yeah, it seems outlandish, until you think that a pint of even piss beer in an establishment is going to run you $4-5 each, minimum. I bought some of this, for around $20/4 pack, recently, and wish I had gotten two, because I can't find it anymore.

    Community's regular Mosaic is fantastic, and this one is surprisingly smooth, for a triple.

    Our oldest, Daisy, has CBD and Xanax on board. Our youngest, Charlie, seems to be fine with it, which is nice.

    I would suggest if you do one, you do them all. You may consider doing the center support bearing as well. It may be cheaper to bring the drive shaft to the shop instead of the entire vehicle.
