  1. Past hour
  2. She better be careful, she’s getting up there. And Bill the Thrill is back on campus
  3. Anytime any of you find yourself in Fort Worth, please consider visiting the Harbor Club. The 7am meeting gets my day started in the right frame of mind and has been a vital part of my recovery journey. I'll buy the coffee when you get here.
  4. Aggie don’t care about Texas. Really. And also winning on merit is better than winning. Like Aggie isn’t paying for their players? It’s literally the way it works now.
  5. Their eldest should be ~8yrs old
  6. Bless your heart. Took until this morning to get my internet back up on the mountain. Guess the cell sites lost their minds.
  7. How are Aaron Ross and Sonya Richards coming along with their family?
  8. 19/31 v 20/22
  9. I looked that ref in the optic stems and I said… ”BISCHHHHHHH… …El Fenix is closed at this hour.”
  10. Today
  11. More fun today for the announcer. Naomi is also playing in that 125.
  12. I'm sure glad Quinn going pro and being drafted has finally silenced all the hot takes related to Quinn.
  13. >90% of college athletes are saying way worse in DMs
  14. Miami is another team in bad shape. Not as bad as phoenix or now Milwaukee, but still bad. Bam is going to start making $55m a year. He has proven year after year that he is not a #1. He is not really even a strong #2 imo. Herro has an ok contract, but he is not a 1 or 2 either. Rozier is still owed almost $30m and he is worthless. Robinson has 9m guaranteed. They are probably just going to cut him. They even owe Kevin Love $4m (is he even alive?)
  15. And he did so by swinging a prybar.
  16. TFG’s first 100 days: β€œYou are not the keeper of our pot of gold; you are a temporary leprechaun."

  18. the dialogue in those scenes was pretty bad. mainly because, to your point, I think Gilroy was trying to rush through it. "We need a Lord of the Flies type scene somewhere, hey how bout this?(writes it in 30 minutes)". I'm not sure I'd put it on the actors but just my opinion.
  19. Lost my dog of almost 15 years (June) this weekend. Ran off at the ranch he's enjoyed for most of his life and never looked back. Searched day and night until I had to quit. Tough pill. I hate that this is how it ended, but maybe he knew better. RIP Kaiser Maiser. Took this during the search. That's how I feel. Don't care if understand.
  20. Blotto

    Pizza

    Yeah they can GTFO with that $4.25/roll bullshit.
  21. s) Midland, Pecos, Wink. It's all Permian Basin oil. Mineral value is added to regular dirt value when it comes to property taxes in Texas, so you get some rinky-dink rural school districts in the Permian Basin with astronomical property tax bases and very few students that have to be educated. That money goes back into statewide coffers in much the same way that Austin ISD has to - just at a different scale. In the district I attended back in the 1970s-1980s, the boundaries barely reached the city limits. Hell, in parts of town, other districts actually cut into the town proper (still do), which means my district didn't benefit at all from the oil getting pumped out of the ground. We were "property poor," but the district just south of us was based in a town with fewer than 300 people, and they had ALL THE OIL with wall-to-wall carpeting in the high school hallways and an astroturf football field...back in the 1980s. They couldn't spend the money fast enough. The funding disparities were DRAMATIC before Robin Hood. Shit definitely still needs tweeking/fixing, but the intent at that time was noble because our district boundaries are all kinds of fucked up. San Antonio's very poor Edgewood ISD lawsuit (if I recall correctly) back then was what forced the Texas Supreme Court to declare our property-tax-based system to be unconstitutional because it didn't guarantee even close to an equitable education for all kids. Personally, I'd do some serious school district consolidation to even things out and then rejigger the formulas once the property tax base disparities were flattened out a little bit after consolidation, but that would never fly politically because suburban districts make out like bandits under the current system. Where you live in a proximate area shouldn’t dictate whether your kid gets a decent education, especially within a county or metro area, imho. It's kind of dumb to begin with, because what does the value of property in a specific place have to do with funding education, to begin with? I mean, do bigger houses or whatever mean the kids living in them are inherently worth more? Don't answer that.
