Battlestar at the Alamo

[finglegend]

I know I’ve told some of you about the Alamo Drafthouse, the movie theater where children under 6 are prohibited, and they serve meals and beer during the movie. Well I’ve just found out from my fellow Battlestar-buddies that they are also showing new Battlestar Galactica episodes every Sunday, commercial free.

I think I’m in love.

This information prompted a quick survey of universities in Austin.

I don't know whether this helps or hurts:

Guess I shouldn't use my phd as a travel opportunity, but...how cool would it be to be able to hang out on a regular basis?

Why not? Everyone else does. Do you think geophysicists and geochemists would be so interested in mantle plumes if Hawaii weren’t a potential plume? I mean Iceland is nice and all, but its surfing sucks.

So the surfing in Austin is good? :)

I really should go to London, but I'm open to persuasion on the subject.

one option is always to apply to austin and go visit (which i'm asssuming would be paid for) after admission. and hten go to london anyways. :)
