Do you think that E took any responsibility for the dinosaur skull that he caused to break / ruin?

I am on the episode where E gets all bent out of shape about Vince hanging out with his Co Worker, and goes over to his party, and picks a fight with the guy, then ends up pushing him into the skull, and breaking it.

E has always been such a hot head.

He leaves his soon to be wife, to go pick a fight with his co worker, when he could have easily just waited until the next day, to talk to him in person at the office.

Also, why in the world would Vince have such an expensive and rare dinosaur skull just sitting there, during a party, where any drunk person could lose their balance, and knock the thing over, and break it. That made no sense.

Should have had that thing locked up in a safe, until they got some sort of ultra secure clear glass protection for it, to display it.

I think that E was pretty dumb, to pick a fight right near that dinosaur skull, which he really should have noticed, due to him probably being the only sober person in the room at the time.

Question about cosmetic flaw on a pool cue butt.

I purchased this used Bull Carbon pool cue recently, and when I 1st seen this cosmetic flaw, I thought that it looked like a repaired crack, just by the shape of it.

Hoping that this is just a very weirdly shaped scratch though.

When running my finger across it, I can feel what I hope is just a scratch in the finish. If it is just a scratch though, then the shape of it just looks so strange to me.

Thanks for any thoughts.

How do keep your Carbon Fiber shaft feeling as smooth as possible?

I need help.

I got this used Bull Carbon shaft, and it just does not feel very smooth at all. It is not too bad, but it feels more on the sticky or rough (or both) side, then being very smooth.

I believe this Bull Carbon shaft is a Raw CF shaft, without any type of finish over it (though I am really not sure), but it just does not feel very smooth.

Maybe I need to take it to a Pro, and have them get it smooth for me? I understand that you should never sand a CF shaft, and that the CF particles can seriously mess up your lungs, if you breathe it, so I have always been too scared to do any type of Sanding to a CF shaft.

Anyways, what are some very safe methods to get the CF shaft as smooth as possible? Again, I have a Bull Carbon shaft, if that makes any difference.

By the way, I did order a Glove yesterday, but to be honest I really hate gloves, so I am trying out one of those 3 finger UnGlove types of gloves, in hopes that I will like it. Because I just really hate the feel of a glove, while playing.

Thanks a lot for any thoughts.

Hillside Farmacy is such a unique, and super nice looking restaurant.

I visited Hillside Farmacy today, just to try the Chai (tea) that they offer, and take it to go.

I wish that I would have got a few pictures of the place, because it looked so nice in there. Too hard to describe how the place looks, but the atmosphere just seemed really unique to me.

I just stopped in there to get an iced Chai to go, and the bartender was so nice, and allowed me to try a small sample, lol.

When I tried the sample, I knew right away that it was my favorite Chai ever (Evergreen Chai, which is a local Austin company that makes Chai into a an instant Chai powder).

Like most coffee shops, they make a large batch of it, for putting it in a large container of liquid Chai concentrate.

I overheard someone order the Steak dinner, and then I seen a sign outside that said that Sundays offer a Steak Dinner special for $25.

Really surprised how reasonable (fairly cheap) their menu prices are, for how nice and classy the place looks.

I really love that area too, near East 11th and Rosewood. It is a really nice lively block, with bars, coffee shops, and restaurants.

Shout out to the Taco truck next door to Oye Taquito, on E. Cesar Chavez st.

Edit: I was not able to add more pics, so please view my replies below, for pics of the place, and the menu. And, give them a try if you are ever in the neighborhood. It is really good, in my opinion.

Please forgive me, but I can't even recall the name of this Taco truck, but it is located literally right next door to the Oye Taquito taco truck on E. Cesar Chavez St, kind of across the street, near by Flat Track coffee.

For anyone who cares about value for the amount of food you get, their tacos are around $5 each, and they are huge (the biggest that i have ever had, lol), and they are pretty good.

I have had the Steak, and the Al Pastor, and I really liked them.

Pictured is the Steak taco on flour, and an Egg taco with Berria meat, and Avocado on top, that my mother told me that she liked.

Anyways, just want to give them a shout out, because I honestly feel that they offer good food, based on the few experienced that I have had with them so far.

Again, they are right next door to Oye Taquito taco truck, which has decent tacos, but the tacos are far smaller.

Oh, and the staff has been so nice and friendly. They are super cool, and very nice.

I do not recall the name of the place though, and it is NOT on Google maps.

I should have taken a few pictures of the place, and their menu. I will do that next time, and share the pictures.

I wish them the best.

Shout out to Coffee Cartel for their great Espresso, and very friendly service.

I just wanted to give a shout out to a fairly new Coffee truck in the East Cesar Chavez neighborhood, called Coffee Cartel.

The guy who runs the Coffee shop is pure class, and so friendly.

My mother really likes the Espresso that he offers, which is rare for her, because she has only really liked the Espresso at a few other Coffee shops that we have visited in Austin.

He offers David Rio Chai, which is a very good Chai, imo, too, for any Chai lovers out there.

Anyways, the guy who runs the Coffee truck just has such a great attitude, and is super friendly, and seems genuinely caring, about the satisfaction of the drink.

He offers muffins, which he says are very good, but I have not tried one yet. They looked good though.

Anyways, I just wanted to give him a shout out, and wish him the best.

I forgot to take pictures again (but I will the next time I go, and update, if possible), but I just wanted to give a shout out to Taqueria Chapala (in East Cesar Chavez).

Have had the Steak, the Al Pastor, and my mother had the Grilled Chicken (with onions and bell peppers on it) a few times, and we both really loved the tacos.

The restaurant is in kind of a ghetto part of East Cesar Chavez, but there are a lot of bars, and food trucks, and very lively nightline right there, maybe a block West of the restaurant.

The staff have been so friendly too.

And, the amount of food they give you, on a $4 taco, is really impressive. The tacos are huge, and really great, in my opinion.

There was not really anyone in there on both occasions that I ordered to go, so please give them a try if you are ever in the area, because I honestly really enjoyed the tacos, and my mother really loved hers too.

I will be going back very often, and really wish that I would have learned of the place around 7 months ago, when I moved to the neighborhood, because I mostly just went to a Taco truck that was near Comal and 6th street, up until very recently finding this place.
