Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Hope you find Texas welcoming. I moved here from OC California 6 years ago. The biggest issue for me was the food (aside from the weather). "Mexican food" especially is a quandary of processed cheese and unseasoned meat. They even have their own name for it "Tex-Mex". Anyway, I ride my bike almost every year from Houston to Austin. I love it up there. Many more things to get you moving outside. Well, I hope you enjoy it here. It has become my home rather quickly .

Too bad he missed the days of Dacquiri-Factory "watering holes" up and down Westheimer and Yucatan! but plenty going on up in Austin! Film festivals, Music fests .....and F O O D! they even got a KRISPY KREME!
 
Good to know. Will have to find a good (greasy) burger joint when we get there.....
We actually have Habit Burger here, which we like better than in and out... But we will see.
Wow a couple of RL AF peeps in Texas! Woo Hoo!

I refuse to post over there until they reel in how rude and elitist attitude over there. I simply lurk in silence and grab anything if I need to.

Well, if you know me,...i used to jump right into those snark-infested waters, post a question, and like fresh "chum" wait for the feeding frenzy. When the snides start,i snidded right back......but the the experience aint worth it.

....wanna know my secret to keep them from biting?...

I would still get my answer eventually , but I was to be "dayam" if I was gonna let some cyberjerk tell me I couldnt post or tell me "there's this new thing called Google....use it"

Once I responded back "theres this new thing called 'life'....get one"....
 
There are other Texans here, just now live in NC. I was raised in Dallas, family still there. While I love Texas, I have to say you could not get me to leave the Carolina's. We have wonderful 4 seasons and no extremes, the Ocean and the mountains only 6-7 hours apart. Now if I could move those factors to Texas, I would be there in a heart beat :). As far as Tex Mex goes, now for someone who grew up with great TexMex in Dallas, nothing here compares and I can't wait to go home for a filling. And restaurants, well Austin has tons of them and some great BBQ as we have thoroughly discussed here in our great little hole. Austin is a great town, I think if i ever were to choose a place in Texas it would be San Antonio or Austin. Dallas has become a city I do not even recognize; when i was growing up, I had a horse that I could ride all over, and not a worry. Now a days, I need a street map to know where I am and the amount of concrete that has taken over all the places we rode is unreal. What is amazing is the steady stream of growth Texas has enjoyed from its boom days in the 70's until now. The Lone Star state is an awesome place.

I am orig from midwest and miss four seasons the most! Miss the fall colors of Rhode Island and the new england states. Dont miss the snow. I do miss visiting the upper mountains in Ny, the easy quick Toronto trips. But I love me some HOUSTON
 
Now now BB, with parents like Anti and Mrs. Anti, you left out pure unadulterated innocent happiness! :thumb: Just like we can say about your happy cherub and the cherubs of all of our Nexicans. Here is to a great group of family people dedicated first to RL! Lots for all of us to be thankful for as we enter the week before Thanksgiving!

Did anyone with yakju got 4.2 update?
Click to expand...

You might be hard pressed here. I don't know if there's anyone here with a Maguro Nexus. I'm still waiting for a 4.2 based ROM myself.

So it looks like the N4 blunder gets worse. Many folks who ordered successfully are now looking at a 3+ week backorder. Nice job, Goog. :congrats::rolleyes:
 
Dread, Yeah I saw that. Google better shape up or people are going to start getting turned off.

Morning all! Happy Friday! Well I have HW due and a presentation in my class, and then a week off, and then my final. After that I will be down to one more class, and my thesis. Which I haven't even started, on account of how busy I am at work :p
 
Morning Dread, Morning Anti! I am surprised at Google's ill planning, i sure hope they are able to get it better organized. Anti, you are almost there, way to go! Hope everyone has a great Friday!
