  1. Added the bold. This is truth. You're beaten down from knowing the truth, living it, and being hurt by it. Don't look for validation from the world or from those you're physically serving. Jesus didn't. Seek contentment in all situations - you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.
  2. Good seeing AA and Mari hitting more backside. Or at all.
  3. I'll go. I did not vote for Trump. I could vote for a penitent felon, but not one who refuses responsibility and accountability. I can't vote for someone who treats others the way he does. I think his tariffs are shortsighted and frankly disastrous. I can't wrap my head around the idea of a President who considers Kim Jong Un and Vladimir Putin as friends. I would like to see complete nationalized healthcare as a backstop available to every citizen. I want our President to value different cultures and be the figurehead of a country who embraces those looking for a safe haven. I did not vote for Kamala. I cannot vote for a candidate who would make abortion legal. I believe in individual rights of freedom- that we are created in the image of God and part of that image includes the freedom and dignity of choice. I believe in protecting and speaking up for those who are destitute, needy, and without voice. I believe God the creator knits us in the womb, that life begins at conception, and that He views miscarriages and failed pregnancies as deaths. When individual rights clash with protecting the innocent I look to Jesus's example of how He gave up His right as God in Heaven to come live on earth to unjustly suffered and die at the hands of his creation to save not the innocent but the guilty. He models how personal rights give way to protect life. To answer your question, yes I am on board with those measures. There's a far cry between handing out contraceptives at the door with a wink and a high-five and making them available while teaching responsibility and dignity. That needs to happen within the context of the home, but schools need to share responsibility in education because it's obviously not happening in every home. If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
  4. I'm through the first set and a half. Our rhythm and pace is so much better so far.
  5. Yesterday in Austin was gorgeous. Woke up to high 40s and had dinner outside in the 70s.
  6. I know others will differ but for me it's 1.) TJ 2.) KD 3.) Mihm 4.) T Rencher It would take a lot to crack the top 4.
  7. UT vball color lady has the same habit.
  8. Evolve just sent out an email saying they've reconciled and will pay out amounts held in their banks (vs other banks across the Synpase ecosystem). I had $.23 in Evolve banks. Rest of the money's in other banks.
  9. Our go to is Terry Black's.

    Cart Narcs

    What's that blue line at the edge of parking lots? Looks to form a square of some sort and every grocery store in Texas has them but I've never found an explanation.
  11. I'm pretty sure it was just a show piece showing off the prestige of the store. They're normally in the few thousand dollar range.
  12. I saw one in Hong Kong once where the asking price was over a million HKD - that's about $120,000.
  13. A few months later JFK would be in Dallas. Amazing to think about.
  14. What was the target temp for your frying oil? One end's a fork, the other's a paddle.
  15. Last night KXAN said there were 1mm more Rs than Ds in Texas who early voted. What's the expected number?
  16. We had to do it for our rental house in Dallas, it was $7100. Included a one year warranty where they'll come out and fix anything that was there before but won't do work on any new cracks or holes that show up. Highway robbery.
  17. four. wins. in a quarter century. we had just as many superbowls the previous quarter century as we do playoff wins this one.
