  1. I tend to think that those majors are already dominated by the privileged class. 30 years ago, those degrees were rather "cheap" to get. You could get out of college with little or no debt, and have a career that just required a degree, and you got to study something of interest. Now, with so many people going to college, there aren't as many of those type of jobs available. You need to get a degree that is specialized, and can put food on the table, or have a high GPA in those studies to get into post graduate schools. CHIEF
  2. Would be a good time to blow the Kerch bridge. Make that fucker try to get out by boat or plane rather than an armored train. CHIEF
  3. I dated a girl from Holy Cross, IA one summer. She came to Texas to spend the summer with her aunt, in Clifton. She had the most spectacular tits of any woman I have ever been with. Pre-IPhone years, so, unfortunately, I have no pictures but wish I did. Thats my only Iowa story. CHIEF
  4. Can’t wait to see her on Meet an Inmate thread. CHIEF
  5. I wear these, I have three pair (two gray, one black) because I simply refuse to bend over and tie my shoes anymore. Other than tying my dress shoes up for funerals, I haven't tied shoes in probably 3-4 years: CHIEF
  6. Judging perps who eat peeps. At 14, I would have eaten a peep out of that perp. CHIEF
  7. This. Young adults think they have to live a "cultured", affluent, young urban lifestyle. There are $100k+ jobs at Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, but you are gonna live in Glen Rose, or Granbury. But $100k in this area is like $60k in Austin, or Dallas. CHIEF
  8. Wrong music, should have been set to this: CHIEF
  9. Round one of sanctions. We ought to threaten it just for them “ saber rattling. “ CHIEF
  10. My Dad's number was $2000/acre to break even. Maybe $5000/acre for sprigged coastal. If you own the land outright, there is money to be made. We would buy cow/calf pairs with the cow already bred back. By the time you sold the second calf, you pretty much had your cow note paid off. If cattle prices were poor, it sometime took the third calf. You have to go way out in the fucking boonies now to find $2k/acre land, and that land can probably only support a cow per 30 acres or so. At our lease, in Benjamin, you can buy farmland at $1k/acre, but it only gets 10 inches of rain per year. The ranch we are on probably runs 60 acres per head. CHIEF
  11. 95 years old. Ol' Red made it to the end of the roll of toilet paper of life. He should have no complaints. CHIEF
  12. Not a new car, but this thread is filled with folks that might be interested. I have a buddy on my lease, that lives in Salado. He bought a new 911 Cab, so he is getting rid of his 2006 911 Cabriolet to make room in the garage: It has 44k miles. He is asking $53,500. Always garaged, obviously not his daily driver. CHIEF
  13. I had a Great-Great Uncle that went pronghorn hunting back in the 1950's. The rancher was his guide, and simply hung his coat on a fencepost next to a water trough. Pronghorns are extremely curious, and after a while the whole herd had to come see what it was that was hanging on the fencepost. He picked out the biggest buck and shot him. CHIEF
  14. We have several pilots, that live here, some are based out of DFW, Love, and Houston. They fly their planes to work, land at a smaller regional airport, and Uber to the international airports close by. CHIEF
  15. We have them in King County, but they are sparsely populated as there are no large wheat fields within 7-8 miles of our pasture. When we hunted at Aspermont, they were as thick as mosquitos. You would see 75 a day, mainly in the wheat fields.In the winters, that's where they concentrate as it is the only place to get grass with nutrients. If we see any in King County, it is big individuals, or small sounders that show up to the feeder. CHIEF
  16. See that feed pen? I built it with me own two hands, but do they call me CHIEF, the pen builder? No. But you fuck one post driver… If you are in dirt with minimal rocks, it will drive a 6 ft. T-post over two and a half feet deep in about 10 seconds. CHIEF
  17. I bought one of these last year. We move feeders and pens so much, works like a charm. I think I may have brought it up earlier in this thread, or the one from last year. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073DBLL29/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 CHIEF
  18. I just listed a private home, built in 2017, by a retired AA pilot with a 40x40 hanger in our subdivision. These do not come up for sale very often. Concrete taxiways behind each house. Two golf courses. DM me if this has always been your dream. Had a guy fly in to look, but he had two bigger planes, one on turf tires, but there isn't a grass strip at this location, so he passed. Here is the info on the strip: https://www.airnav.com/airport/66TE CHIEF
  19. We have three state parks in my area, Cleburne State Park, Meridian State Park, and Dinosaur Valley State Park. Dinosaur Valley is the only one that gets steady traffic. The CCC built them all in the 1930's. My grandfather told me when they were first built, during Prohibition, that's where you went every Saturday night for dancing, and to buy moonshine. There would be hundreds of folks there. After Prohibition was repealed, the state parks just dried up. CHIEF
  20. Our State Parks are woefully underfunded. A decade or so ago, I read some article on their funding. There was a crazy quote that caught my eye. It said that at current funding, state parks could replace their work trucks every 700 years. Trucks are a lot more expensive now. CHIEF
  21. Well, monkey pox never really took off, so maybe we have a puncher’s chance. CHIEF
  22. CHIEF: Chief Jr., why aren't you going back to UT-D? CHIEF Jr.: Because it's full of ugly bitches, and there isn't a motherfucker there that likes Merle Haggard. CHIEF: Well then, I completely understand. CHIEF
  23. Fuck, that is a UT-D eight. When CHIEF Jr. was there, we would visit, not a group of homelier female coeds on the planet. CHIEF
  24. I remembered this thread from last year in CYHMWT. It was LTBear asking about having kids or not. Several of the posters in this thread, commented on that one too. Posters telling why they decided to have kids or not. I thought I would add a link, here, if anyone wants to see the mindset of people who wanted kids, and those that did not: CHIEF
  25. I’ve come to the conclusion that Olympic coverage, on TV, is about what is the easiest and cheapest sport to film. It isn’t about what sports people actually want to see. It’s all about profit margin. CHIEF
