For fans of Dazed and Confused, Top Notch Burgers in Austin is still open - near Burnet and Northcross.
When I think of Lonestar Beer…
I can’t help of thinking of three things:
1. Mel Brooks’ Spaceballs
2. John Travolta in Urban Cowboy
3. There are so many better choices for a “national” beer of Texas, why did we choose this one?
Congratulations Austin, Texas; You have been ranked the 10th worst place to own a car in the US according to the commentariat at Jalopnik.com. But don’t take their word for it, apparently, according to the Statesman, other groups hold a similar opinion of the live music capital of the world.
I’ve lived here for over a year and really the only major complaint I have about the city of Austin is the traffic (a minor annoyance) and the drivers (a threat to all life in general).
It wouldn’t be so bad if Austinites would just put down their double mocha frappuccinos and smart phones and keep their hands on the wheel. That and if the city’s civic planning wasn’t executed by a couple of 4-year-olds and a box of crayons.
Vader Has a New Ride
On the way to work today, I passed a new, black-on-black Acura ZDX with tinted windows. The license plate on the car read, VADR.
