[LDS Jock]

4. Latter Day Saint

although some of the others might apply as well.

and thanks

[salin]

11. That had been my assumption

but you know what they say about making those - so I thought I would check :D

[intheflow]

5. Leaky Damn Sink?

:P

[intheflow]

2. Ever been to an Austin Lounge Lizards concert?

I have been. Back in '89 or '90, in Boston of all places.

[LDS Jock]

7. no, I don't even know what that is

sorry

[intheflow]

18. They're a satirical country band.

Very funny. Figured you'd know them, since you're both from Austin. I've never been to Austin, but have always wanted to go because I've heard it's a great music scene. Is that true?

[LDS Jock]

22. it is supposed to be

I don't go enjoy all the town offers as much as I should. I'm kind of a homebody.

[intheflow]

32. Me, too.

Guess that's why we met on DU!

Did you grow up in Texas?

[LDS Jock]

33. no, I grew up in Arkansas, extreme north part in the Ozarks

but I needed out of there. Not the best place for a gay man wanting to live freely. Too much judging from too many relatives.

[intheflow]

34. Strange you should move to Texas!

I have two lesbian friends that fled from there because of jugemental relatives.

Sitll, it must have been one hell of a culture shock going from the mountainous, forested Ozarks to flat, treeless Texas.

Congrats on the 4000 posts!

[LDS Jock]

38. thanks.. Texas is very different

but it is home now. The Hill Country west of town looks somewhat like the Ozarks, but the Ozarks are much greener.

I had family move down here. Ended up four of us nine kids live in Austin. I wasn't the only one who wanted somewhere new. Its kinda odd, since my family has lived in that town forever. In fact, the town in Arkansas I grew up in is named for my mother's family. I really needed out of there.

3. Who was the last tsar of Russia?

[LDS Jock]

9. Nicholas II

[Benhurst]

20. Actually they are wrong about that. When Nicholas II abdicated for

himself and his son, Nicholas' younger brother became czar Michael II. Kerensky persuaded Michael to abdicate one day later.

[LDS Jock]

23. I'm just quoting CNN

you know they can't be wrong

[Benhurst]

26. LOL! Check out Robert K. Massie's Nicholas and Alexandra

for a very readable account of the period.

CNN should have asked Judy Woodruff, since I sure she was probably there when it happened. :silly:

[NoPasaran]

[LDS Jock]

21. lol.. where do you live?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

24. 50 Miles NW of Austin.

I went to UT and lived there for four years. :) Take my advice DO NOT drink margaritas at a place called Uncle Nasty's just off the Drag. 1/3 everclear 1/3 Tequila 1/3 mixer. They hurt!

[LDS Jock]

25. why are you living up in the sticks?

I've never heard of Uncle Nasty's. I like the margaritas at Chuy's. I love Chuy's.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

28. I moved here after a 7 year tour in Houston

I bought a small business and hang out on the lakes most of the summer. When I need to detox I head to Austin. It works out pretty nice. :)

[LDS Jock]

30. are you around Lampassas?

Sometimes I wouldn't mind being outside town. I grew up in a town of a thousand people. I miss the calmness of it. Now I live practically downtown. When we move we are thinking of outside town, but no where as far as you are.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

31. Mercy no! Lake LBJ, Kingsland area.

Actually closer to Marble Falls but it's still Lake LBJ.
