  1. I don't think they will get past the dam, at Canyon. Everyone knows why, but I ain't gonna say it. CHIEF
  2. In 2016, our neighbor tied his johnboat to a sliding chain, about 6 miles below the Granbury dam. It had just gotten dark, about 8:30 pm. We all went back to the houses, above flood stage. Before 6 am, he had a call from the Corps of Engineers to come get his boat off the rocks at the Whitney dam. Over 100 miles in, at the most, 8 hours. How it didn't get snagged? I don't know. Having lived all but six years of my fifty seven years on the Brazos river, I've seen it bone dry, and I've seen it 40 feet deep, a half mile wide, and runnin' 30 mph, in the middle. God only knows how far they can travel. CHIEF
  3. Well godspeed. You are a very admirable dude. You, my friend, have fought some of the most crazy shit I have ever seen and, somehow came out sane on the other side. CHIEF
  4. This was your friend's baby girl? CHIEF
  5. Josh Weathers, one of our Church's song leaders and a rising Red Dirt Country star is doing a FaceBook concert, and has raised $206k in less than 2.5 hours. I bid $7500 for a "house" concert, it went for $36k, I thought I was overbidding. Someone has another big heart, and a bigger checkbook. Just wonderful to hear. CHIEF
  6. That's almost as bad as me on the toilet, after eating Flamin' Hot Chicharrones dipped in Crystal Hot Sauce. CHIEF
  7. I’m sure this is crippling. So no Guinness, butter, Jameson, leprechauns, or pots of gold. I give Ireland 30 days and they cave. CHIEF
  8. Here is my current setup: I I'm a Sonic ice chewing dude all day. I have been through three additional ice makers, before this one. All made really good ice. All others succumbed to lime scale. Our water is really hard, and the scale made them eventually just grind to a halt even with routine cleaning and descaling. I went to this pitcher, made by Culligan, that gets the ppm down to RO level water. The problem, the water is so pure and clear that you have to eat it fast for that Sonic ice texture, or it will end up a hard, clear crystal. But, the ice maker, itself, is clean as a whistle. CHIEF
  9. Better be 101 not that sissy 86 proof shit. CHIEF
  10. Another reason the US is so protective of Israel, is there are over 700k American citizens there, either full, or part time. Over forty of the 1200 victims from October 7th were American citizens. If Israel was wiped off the face of the Earth, it would be like killing everyone in Wyoming. Same reason we won't see anything from the Russians, three million of the Israeli settlers are Russian jews. CHIEF
  11. If the regime is toppled, I bet there will be an Iranian "Audie Murphy". A war hero with more western values, and the backbone it will take to be the Prime Minister of a democratic Iran. Let's just hope he doesn't get power hungry. CHIEF
  12. This will only end with a regime change. Which will not be possible without arming some of the populous, and convincing most of the IRGC to join in. I'm not sure the IRGC would do it without some serious concessions from the populous, that basically leaves them in power. CHIEF
  13. The BBC's Armstrong & Miller "The Origins of....." videos, on YouTube are absolutely killer. The facial expressions are probably some of the best I have ever seen: CHIEF
  14. I said if it were ME. He is a smart fucker, I'm sure he has it on the iCloud somewhere. CHIEF
  15. It's like John Daly hitting his driver. Thousands have hit off the same tee box, but very few have hit it so deep down the fairway. CHIEF
  16. Probably girth. She had wide hips. CHIEF
  17. Fuck, I told him if he was a 4.5 on Amazon Prime, he would be a #1 seller. I bet her biggest knock was that he wouldn't skip work to drive to downtown Dallas, drunk, at 3 am on a work day. She has a complete disregard for shit that will get you arrested or killed. CHIEF
  18. Apparently, it was for the overall "boyfriend" experience. Saying he was a good dude, and he was good in the sack. If it were me, I would get a print out of the review and keep it in my wallet. CHIEF
  19. Mrs. CHIEF and I were laughing about this a while back. CHIEF Jr. has very little to almost no social media. He still meets gals at the bar, or on the lake. Something I didn't know, and he was a bit embarrassed by, was that his old girlfriend gave him a YELP review, not sure if it was on a dating site. I never looked for it, but my wife did. I finally confessed to him one night that I heard he had a YELP review. He didn't want to discuss it, but I told him I had to know if she trashed you to all of the internet. He said it was a very fair review, she gave him 4.5 stars out of 5, and a 5 on shaggin' (his proud moment). She was always a gracious, and very kind person during the day, it was that she was a drunk, verbally abusive insomniac at night. CHIEF
  20. Got some rain pushing through. Sucks sitting at the house and waiting it out. CHIEF
  21. That is what I do as well. We rarely get many lowball offers, mainly from people that aren't familiar with our area. Our market is still rolling in my neighborhood. Most are retirees that have had their house paid off for a decade, and also tons of cash buyers. CHIEF
  22. "Wouldn't It Be Nice" is one of my all time favorite wedding reception songs. It was played at mine. CHIEF
  23. @troph what was that badass wakesurf board that you bought? In fact, I think it was two of them. Was it one the Chaos boards made in Austin? We are getting boards for the new boat. Bought a $900 Doomswell Kevlar on sale for $550. Got our Ronix bungee rope to save shoulders. CHIEF
  24. I actually like it on my chargrilled Gulf oysters. CHIEF
  25. I think when people ask me my weight, I am going to answer them with the "Jew Pound" calculation. CHIEF
