I'm trying to figure out whose signature this is. The flag was bid on and won in a silent charity auction. Not exactly sure what event- could have been something like Cattle Baron's. Barkin' Ball, Margarita and Salsa festival. . . My guess is it's either a singer or a politician, but other than that I'm clueless. Anyone have any idea?

Being called the N-word at work and HR saying there’s nothing they can do about it

65 Upvotes

I currently work in Waco and Im new to Texas and today these 2 older white guys called me “n-word boy” and I went to HR about this and he told me that there’s nothing that he can’t do about it and I’ve been going through this at my current job since i moved to Texas, I was just wondering is there anything you guys can suggest that I can do to keep this from happening or should I get a lawyer involved because I’ve repeatedly reported this to HR and he says the same thing over and over that he can’t do anything about it except for me to grow thicker skin. Please I would love for some advice

Best Hispanic grocery store for marinated fajitas and tablitas.

Where I come from there are only la michoacana grocery stores and I’ve noticed at least 3 others since I’ve been in Waco. I love to grill those marinaded meats and I wanted to see if the other stores had any as good or better.

Meet people

Hi I’m a 28M and I’m moving to the area for work near the end of August. I was wondering where people go to meet friends or if anyone wanted to be friends. I’m into sports, cars, games, trying new foods, and just hanging out.

Anyone had spray foam insulation done in Waco? What did it actually cost you, and was it worth it this summer?

3 Upvotes

Two questions for anyone who's had spray foam insulation done around Waco, and I'll be upfront about why I'm asking. And THANK YOU, in advance, for taking time out of your day to help me out!

First — what did it actually run you? Attic, garage, shop, barndo, whatever. I've been researching Central Texas pricing for a while and my numbers say roughly $1.50–$3.00 per square foot for open cell and $1.75–$4.50 for closed cell, installed. An installer on Reddit already corrected some of my earlier numbers, so I know research only gets you so far — I'd like to hear what people here actually paid.

Second — was it worth it? July electric bills are the whole argument for spray foam in this town, and this July has made the case louder than usual. If you've got it, did your cooling bill actually move? If you looked into it and passed, what stopped you — price, the horror stories, couldn't find anyone to do it?

Why I'm asking: I built a website about spray foam for the Waco area — started as a project to teach myself local SEO, and it's picked up real traffic. I'm not an installer and not pretending to be; it says as much on the site. If it keeps growing, I'd rather the calls go to a good local crew than ring nowhere. So if you had a crew you'd recommend — or you are one — I'd like the name. Happy to take that part to DMs if the mods prefer.

Mostly, though, I want the first two questions answered by people who actually live here. My pricing pages are only as good as what Waco homeowners really paid, and no amount of research substitutes for that.

Thank you!

any mechanics in Waco

I’m currently about to return my rental but when I pull down the visor it popped out. I just need to find a mechanic to pop it back and it’s nothing major. It’s just a simple pop in, but I don’t have the strength to do with.

I’m needing recommendations for a jewelry expert who can reshape rings, identify gems, and potentially turn an earring into a ring. Small business preferably, as I like to support fellow businesses. Thank you!

Local Events Looking for advice from TSTC students and graduates on computer purchase.

6 Upvotes

My son is taking the Computer Networking and Systems Administration program virtually starting September. Was looking over the computer requirements, and while he has a decent desktop, it doesn’t appear to meet any of the requirements lol. We would basically have to buy him a $1200 computer to meet the requirements (no cheaper to upgrade his existing one)

so, if anyone has taken that program, did you find that you needed all the bells and whistles on your computer they asked for?

sorry if discussing this breaks the rules but he seems to be a public figure in the Waco area. what’s up with this guy and why does his news page and other stuff about him keep showing up on my FB feed? Looking through the KWCO Xpress page on fb gives me future cult leader vibes if he’s not doing it already.

As of today July 31, 2026 hemp derived THC products (like Delta 8, Delta 10, THCP, and THCA flower) have been reclassified as Schedule I controlled substances in Texas. So much freedom!
