  1. Gimme shelter sweet emotion run like hell
  2. I guess we will have to have a 100 million dollar roster to have a 100 person roster of top level talent. Probably the legit expectation of a few posters here.
  3. Well, at least he hasn’t blamed the little girls yet for lack of personal responsibility
  4. And they were unwilling to use a portion of their regular budget.
  5. I sure hope the argument isn’t that nobody in elected office has any clue about what may have happened prior to their taking office.
  6. That’s been addressed earlier up- they let the older, bigger campers traverse the hill up and down to their cabins because it is easier for them. They had the young ones stay low where much of the activity takes place.
  7. Plus the idea that it would take new, additional tax to fund it is fallacy. They have tax revenue. They can budget things in if they believe they are important.
  8. Isn’t it fyre? Some branding.
  9. In my experience, it’s incredibly easy to not shoot, or even shoot at, people.
  10. Were they going to knock on doors? How many people are we talking?
  11. Still gotta hit it well
  12. What the fuck were the swift water rescuers going to do in the dark of night with everything being swept away? We aren’t talking about a bunch of people stranded that they could locate and extricate. they aren’t going into that water to catch whatever people happen to flow to them. It would have been over and they’d be a few more eyes looking for survivors in the morning. eta: that’s why all this bullshit from all over about being ready is such bullshit. They couldn’t have saved any during the event, they didn’t save many after the event. The time to save lives was before the event. And since they, more than once, made the conscious decision to not have the siren flood warning system that others have, and didn’t have any kind of warning system besides apparently door knocking, in an area called flash flood alley in which they claim to be experts at handling floods, it falls on them to have a legitimately actionable plan with a good chance of success. And that plan wouldn’t include ignoring weather warnings. &nbsp people still would have died- there were too many to locate. (Loud sirens could mitigate this issue derp) but they could have saved lives with appropriate action in the hour or so before the event unfolded.
  13. Bill fans are closer to the border
  14. We haven’t “missed” on any 2026 guys yet. We are just in a firmer position of not winning yet for some.
  15. Sounds auspicious
  16. They booked a band called Next of Kin?
  17. Are you trying to tell me that Trump doesn’t know the history of Liberia? if informed, it will certainly give him ideas.
  18. Not sure how to phrase this exactly so I know how callous it sounds, especially for those affected that didn’t vote this way, but at least it’s the state, local, and federal government that the people of Kerr county and Texas voted for. As opposed to it happening to a majority blue area where most impacted would prefer alternate representation and governance than what has been foisted upon them.
  19. Elko recruited that entire defensive class.
  20. Is the lake under the no fly zone or could you drone it and report?
  21. My first thought is how many of those other natural disasters were predicted to occur, from the day before to an hour before, depending on how you view general flood watches vs specific flood warnings. Time of occurrence is a major factor in this particular type of disaster. As is date of occurrence. Both magnified the death toll substantially. it’s the same as if a large population spontaneously gathered in the direct path of a large tornado, and then went to sleep a couple of hours before the tornado spun up.
  22. Is there any public knowledge of how Deloitte will define market values? I guess a second question is will they be sharing their valuations with teams and athletes, to shape future contracts? Would let the athletes know if they are being offered under value. Are undervalued contracts (if there are any) also rejected as not aligned with the market?
