Eating my way through DFW one neighborhood at a time. Oak Cliff roots.
Dallas Animal Services is at capacity almost year-round. They desperately need adopters and fosters. Even temporary fostering saves lives.
Dallas Foundation has over 100 scholarships and most DFW students don't even know they exist. $500-$10,000 each. Source: dallasfoundation.org/scholarships
Filed a TDLR complaint against a fencing contractor who took $3,500 and ghosted. TDLR investigated, found 11 other complaints. His license was revoked.
UTSW is the prestige play. Having UT Southwestern on your resume opens doors nationwide. The pay is slightly above market and the benefits are solid.
Rate shopping counting as one inquiry is the most important thing most people don't know. Shop 5 mortgage lenders in 2 weeks and it's one pull.
Round-Up karaoke nights are an institution. The crowd hypes up EVERYONE regardless of talent level. I've seen standing ovations for objectively terrible performances.
It is a myth until it is not. Eventually the bill comes due. The Saints have been competitive but not championship-level because they are paying dead money to guys who retired 3 years ago.

Giannis is more impactful in the playoffs. Jokic regular season dominance does not always translate. The 2023 championship run was incredible but the 2024 second-round exit matters too.
Riddle Room in Frisco is my top pick. The puzzles are creative and the staff actually cares about the experience.
The fake tickets are getting really good. Side by side with a real one, the font is slightly different but you would not notice unless looking.
Thunderbird Pies is so slept on. Detroit-style pizza is having a moment and they're the best version of it in Dallas.
US-380 construction in Collin County is going to last until my grandchildren are driving. There is no end in sight.
You're not wrong about defense aging. But 2024 draft class PFF grades for young corners are top-15.
Deerfield in Plano is free but the traffic on weekends is INSANE. Go on a weeknight. Tuesday or Wednesday is best.
Got a CatClamp installed on my Tacoma at Christian Brothers in Plano. $250 all-in. Peace of mind.
FWPD told me straight up they don't have the resources to investigate most auto thefts. They take a report and that's it.
The move-in condition form is CRITICAL. If you didn't document pre-existing damage at move-in, the landlord can blame it on you at move-out.
The switch-hitting is what makes Crawford special. He changes stances mid-combination and maintains power from both sides. The only other fighter who did that at this level was Marvin Hagler.
White Rock Lake is the most important place in Dallas. It's the lungs of the city. Every neighborhood around it benefits from its existence. If you don't love White Rock Lake, you don't love Dallas.
Happiest Hour gets the volume but HG Sply Co rooftop on Lower Greenville has a better vibe. Less crowded, better food, same quality sunset.
Meddlesome Moth truffle fries at happy hour price are a cheat code. Also their beer list is top 5 in DFW.
The scary part is not the packages, its that someone has your name and address. Check HaveIBeenPwned.com to see if your email was in any data breaches.
TxDOT cameras confirm all lanes blocked. Wrecker is on scene but this is going to be a while.
Houston food > DFW food and I will die on this hill. The Viet-Cajun crawfish alone puts Houston on top. DFW is catching up though.
