re: Sweetwater - Sugarland to be a TPC course?

Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 2/6/26 at 6:08 am to MAROON

How would that work for existing members? If you joined a club for 48 private holes and they drop it to 24. Would they be grandfathered in for access to the TPC or what?

I’m a member at Sugar Creek and thought about leaving there in the near term and joining Sweetwater at some point down the road. Guess that’s out of question now.

Demographics in sugar land are vastly different than they were when these clubs and courses were built but seems like demand is higher than ever.

…not to mention the lost time this a-hole spent scheming up all of this instead of actually doing the job of making CATS function and operate properly.

Yea it’s all semantics but I think point is that things we are told about history aren’t necessarily accurate. But yes, relative to their contemporaries is what I think most of these discussions revolve around. Even within that concept, there may have been some technologies or know-how that would impress or leave even modern humans in awe similar to Roman concrete until recently or the “how” behind the placement and transportation for some of these massive stones found throughout the world.

The working wage for someone in late 20s is like $25k USD. I went to a bar in Lisbon and ordered a round of drinks for some buddies I met at a hostel and all the locals looked at me like WTF are you doing you lunatic.

All that said, the locals I met there were super chill and seemed very happy.

Moving a Trailer

Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 1/17/26 at 9:16 am

I have an elderly family member in East Texas I need to move a sizeable travel trailer for to a different property of theirs about 1 hour away. It hasn’t been moved in a few years and I don’t trust axles/tires on highway.

Never had to do before. Besides getting a spare, what do I need to be worried about? Bearings, brakes, brake lights? Would it be easier to pay a service to move on a flatbed? I imagine that will be cost prohibitive but no idea what that might cost.

Think about it this way. Our floor is the same as this season considering we didn’t have an offense last year.

This year and that year were similar in that we leaned on elite defenses but you knew it was coming in the sense that defenses can only take you so far. That championship game hurt and left some scar tissue.

This is why everyone knew to immediately call CBK out on his bullshite when the offense started sputtering this year and he talked about playing to your strengths. Been there, done that dude. You are getting paid millions, don’t talk down to us fans when we’ve already seen how this is gonna play out.

I was in same situation as you (lived off 18th) and moved to Sugar Land. I work on west side and wife in Med Center area so we thought about Spring Branch but landed on moving out to the suburbs and used our equity for renovating an older but larger home in a nice neighborhood. We had 1 kid at time but writing was on the wall for #2 and we quickly ended up with #3.

Money aside, I don’t regret it but pretty boring and my commute sucks.

Maybe I missed but are you doing 529? We are stuffing a good bit each month there instead of buying more house. I think future me will thank current me when I’m not paying for their colleges out of pocket in 15-18 years.

I have 3 kids, my oldest having just turned 5. I pay $4k/month in daycare and will get a break starting in September. My wife and I have been fortunate enough to have a decent career so we are super lucky.

This is a big reason why people delay and say they can’t afford kids.

They are taking the Dominoes pizza approach for rebuilding their brand image and admitting their product is shite. The hard part will be fixing it.

In the case of the pizza company, they fixed things or at least put things in place to address the issues BEFORE openly calling out their faults. Hopefully CBS was smart enough to do the same.

Almost right. The illusion is that is voluntary but in reality we rely on a robust and enforceable legal system that people can depend on and serves a framework to build our businesses and lives around. Business laws, labor laws, employment laws, tax laws, traffic laws, etc that is enforced…

In the US, we inherited this from Britain and it’s served us really well. That said, we are at a very dangerous point where it’s value is diminishing and it’s no longer serving that purpose.
