Utee,

Yes, plans changed and were quite fluid that week.  My brother's schedule wasn't as demanding as he thought @ UT-Arlington

and since it was 5-10 degrees warmer in the Round Rock / Leander area than Arlington / Flower Mound, we spent a couple days in Round Rock.  My brother's house has better accommodations for guests than his one-bedroom apartment in Arlington

I apologize if you and Charley feel cheated from your "treat" of a trip to Bone Daddy's.

Come when it's warm.  I don't like to get out of the house when it's so cold.  People don't live in Texas to contend with frigid sub 65 temperatures.

Last week we had a cold day.   Everything was closed but it didn't snow.  At least not at my house.  It was just cold.  Yikes and yuck.

might be visiting the area the week of February 19th

but, might just stay in Arlington and avoid the additional 3 hour drive down I-35 with all the annoying types of drivers

I'm curious as to the ownership and dress code for the staff at the Austin Bonedaddy's.

The last time I went to Monument Cafe, I took my mom by there, after taking her to a doctor's visit, about two months before she went to be with Jesus.  

She was terminal and didn't have much appetite but there was something on the chalk board that appealed to her.  Something weird like King Ranch Chicken Casserole or something.

The waitress said it was all gone so my mom settled for something else.  It was okay but nothing really exciting.

As we waiting to get our credit card and final receipt back, the very same waitress brought plates of King Ranch Chicken Casserole to the table next to ours.

So... you know... they can go to hell.

The week of February 19th, I'll be taking a team up to Fort Worth for a review Tuesday through Friday so if I can't catch you in the ATX, Fearless, maybe I can catch you in the Metroplex.

well, I'm certainly not going to stop there for pie after hearing that horrible story.  I'm not even a big pie loving person.

Mostly older ladies on my team.  I doubt they'd like Bone Daddy's.  I tried to hire a young lady who looked like Zhang Ziyi in "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" when she walks into the restaurant before she beats up everybody in the place, but my boss said I needed to hire somebody with more experiences.

Bosses.  What can you do?

Underwoods made an aggressive push into Austin in the mid-70s, abruptly departed shortly thereafter, but left buildings that subsequently housed iconic businesses.

Sugar's Uptown Cabaret over on Highland Mall Drive is in an old Underwood's.  The other Austin Underwoods was on Burnet at Ohlen where Shu Shu's Asian Cusine now resides.

My dad took me to the one that became Sugar's when I was 11 or 12 (circa 1973 or 1974).  I remember they wrapped my chopped beef on the bun in aluminum foil instead of butcher paper.  That's about all I remember.

My father was a bit of a barbecue snob.  He was open to trying new places but we never went back after that one visit.

Wait....

I was writing that last message in the football fiction thread.   I was pecking it out on my iPhone and I had tostop in the middle to answer a call.

Then when I finally posted, it was in a different thread.

Weird.

No problem.  We need some unpredictability around here.
