DART student GoPass is clutch if you go to UTD or UNT Dallas. No reason to pay for parking.

The COPC clinics are the best kept secret in Dallas County healthcare. Full primary care, sliding scale, locations all over the county. Use them.

Double Wide is the most Dallas bar in Dallas. If you haven't been there you haven't experienced Deep Ellum.

Al Biernat's fills up in literally 24 hours after they announce. Set a calendar reminder.

Aldi is unbeatable if you meal prep and don't need brand names. I feed a family of 4 for under $100/week there.

Kobbie Mainoo is the most naturally talented English midfielder since Lampard. His composure at 19 years old in Premier League matches is absurd.

Opening Bell in Oak Cliff is my office 3 days a week. Great coffee, good people, fast internet.

Disagree — scheme fit matters more than raw ranking. Watch the Alabama film.

The Watkins development story is brilliant. He was a Championship player 4 years ago. Now he is starting for England. That is elite coaching and player development.

TexasLawHelp has the free statutory forms that are legally valid. Printed them, filled them out, got notarized at my bank for free. Total cost: $0.

Audi is the dark horse. Volkswagen Group engineering resources are massive. Year one will be rough but by year two or three they could be fighting for podiums.

LBJ East project has added 15 minutes to my Garland-to-downtown commute. I've switched to the DART Green Line.

Cedar Ridge Preserve is the closest thing to actual hiking in DFW. The butterfly garden trail in spring is beautiful.

You're not wrong about defense aging. But 2024 draft class PFF grades for young corners are top-15.

The assignment of benefits scam is the worst one because it sounds reasonable. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING that lets them deal directly with your insurer.

I started tracking my commute time and it averages 43 minutes for a drive that Google says should be 22. I have trust issues now.

The thank-you email tip is 100% real. I've sat on interview panels where candidates were ranked equally and the thank-you email was the tiebreaker.

Fort Worth > Dallas for LIVING is not unpopular anymore. Cost of living, culture, walkability in key areas. The secret is getting out.

Always ask for the income disclosure statement. Primerica's shows that the median rep earns $6,030/year BEFORE expenses. After costs, most are negative.

The SEC stakes make this game matter even more. Before, it was a Big 12 game. Now losing to Oklahoma could cost Texas a spot in the SEC Championship Game or the CFP.

Usyk at 220 lbs outboxing a 270 lb Fury is the purest demonstration that skill beats size in boxing. He made Fury look slow and confused.

Visit shelters in person. Cannot stress this enough. My cat was at Dallas Animal Services for 3 days and didn't match the description I gave over the phone.

Asking for the signing bonus to "bridge the gap" is brilliant. Companies often have more flexibility on one-time payments than recurring salary.

Bottle Rocket is essential Dallas cinema. The motel scene was shot at a place on Lemmon Ave that's a Starbucks now. Progress I guess.

Declan Rice is the most important signing Arsenal have made in a decade. He transformed the midfield from a weakness to a strength overnight.
