  1. Normally I would agree and scoff at a prediction like this. However, in this particular case it is far more likely due to the fact that I have a Golf trip scheduled in Houston that Friday through Sunday.
  2. Shouldn't "Frank" be capitalized in this sentence?
  3. Blue Bell can/has feasibly fixed their listeria problem. Blue still intentionally uses high fructose corn syrup as a cost savings measure, while Creamy Creations uses cane sugar. If you do a legit blind taste test between the two, I suspect Creamy Creations wins and there is less chance you will die. I agree with whomever said the worst part of Buccee's is the people shopping there. I think it is also impossible to walk out of that store without dropping at least $50. There's damn near that much just between the jerky counter and the fudge table.
  4. Has there been any mention of how much actual territorial gain the Russians have made? Like how much actual square mileage? 100+ days in, over 30k dead soldiers, 600 officers, 800 tanks, countless APCs, the Flagship of the Black Sea. That seems like a stupid price to pay for barely gaining any new ground. Good work Putin. Keep it up!
  5. The streets in my neighborhood (Bull Creek/36) were damp this morning at 5:45 when I left the house. The area around 360/183 looked like it had received a pretty substantial shower. Hydromet don't show a trace of either receiving any rain.
  6. Yup. This has to be Putin's plan. Let's hope so. It seems like there has been an uptick in mutiny stories and the equipment situation is obviously deteriorating. At least from the vehicle standpoint. Seem like the missile strikes slowed way down but the artillery doesn't seem to be affected at all.
  7. There is about to a huge roaming pack of aggie gestapo scouring Colonial and trying to figure out who is Randy Duke.
  8. There should be a mega yacht repo man walking the docks of Monaco this weekend looking for ruskie Oligarch yachts at the race.
  9. 1.12" last night. 2.76" in the last seven days. 360@Bull Creek. So this is what it feels like to live in Bee Cave?
  10. Seven tanks? What is that? A typical Thursday afternoon for the Ukranians and those are gone-zo.
  11. <snacks> They're just saving time and being more efficient </snacks>
  12. Time did a piece tempering the positivity surrounding Ukraine for the short and long term. https://time.com/6176748/ukraine-war-economy/
  13. Kind of significant also because a lot of folks thought ol' Shoygu may have suicided himself.
  14. Maybe whomever throws the coup on old Vlady will just tie him up and drive over Kyiv and just drop him in the middle of the town square and drive off and just the Ukrainians do as they please.
  15. Only as long as western money and supplies keep rolling in. Once this war is over, the West will likely have to focus money to Ukraine on rebuilding it. I am not sure the constituents in the Western countries will be ready to not only have funded the Ukrainian War, and then rebuild their country and then completely fund re-arming them.
  16. Send in some nice CIA fellows with briefcases stuffed with American dollars and US Passports and see what they know.
  17. Please be a russian sub. Please be a russian sub.
  18. Is my 4:00 tee time this afternoon going to stick?
  19. So you are saying that what "happened to them over time" is the same thing as "Western nations confront Russia immediately with strength and severity, Russia crumbles under the weight of their bravado"?
  20. Are there other examples of this happening? I hope you are right but I can't think of anytime this scenario has played out in the past, and it seems like, for now, you are just sort of wishcasting.
