  1. Had the castle as well. It was awesome. Until I discovered BB Guns and fireworks.....the amount of crap I destroyed relative to it's value now. Sigh....
  2. So you have the power?
  3. I ranged the distance from the porch of the cabin to the far side of the stock tank. 129 yds. We have steel plates set up. Loading a single round. I could hit steel shot after shot with mine. Angled a few inches high. Consistent as the seasons. Great guns. Everyone should own one.
  4. lol. No you didn’t. Unless it was pop Warner or a school so ridiculously small it was a temporary situation. Or do you think it’s common for coaches to discuss strategies and tactics in front of the team they are competing with. Especially at the HS level where there are implications for post season play.
  5. My kids directly. No. Have other kids in the team. Yes. It’s not exactly uncommon. That’s why the coaches have kids parked at the tents between meets. Phones. iPads. Lots of older kids drive, so you have wallets as well.
  6. It’s off Limits because of theft. My Kids have run countless meets at that very stadium. Theft. That’s the concern. There are countless stories of phones and other belongings being stolen at these events.
  7. It was a temporary halt. Resumed in early ‘25 then halted again in May of ‘25. Then later reopened in late ‘25 when the USDA determined Mexico has done its due diligence. Currently there are livestock restrictions adjusted based upon disease control efforts. As of now. It’s closed.
  8. God damn I'm still jazzed up. Being a girl-athlete-dad, with a daughter going off to play in college, I was so GD pumped to see those girls do what they do! Mu daughter and I watched both games together. She was hooting and hollering and just so excited. Softball is just so exciting. I know we all probably know this, but with the shorter distance between the pitched and batter, a 70-mph pitch - translated to equivalent speed to a baseball on a longer field, is like 95-100mph. That shit is coming quick. And it's coming up at you. I've stood in the batter's box and tried to hit a fast softball pitch. From a life of trying to hit overhand pitches, it's unnerving. Those girls are savages!
  9. Looks like they are already releasing 100M sterile, horny little male flies a week 100M flies released a week
  10. It started in Panama. Goes back to the early 2000's. I want to say they released sterile flies back in the late 90's, then declared it worm-free in the early 2000's. Much of the neglect in the 2020's was also taking their eye off the ball during Covid. Massive surges in the Darien Gap to the tune of hundreds of thousands of people created different priorities as well (humane vs animal). There's also a not insignificant of modern-day cattle smuggling that goes on the South America. Unregulated cattle movement is completely outside the purview of APHIS. These all-accelerated things northward toward the border. To your point, yes, the Panama Facility was neglected and could have helped mitigate things. I just don't know how unregulated cattle migration could have been stopped, especially in Mexico. The $700+ facility that is being rebuilt was moth-balled back in the 80s when the flies were "eradicated".
  11. So far the protocols are as such: If a case is identified, Texas Animal Health will establish a 12-mile quarantine zone around the area. A 72-hour quarantine is established. After 72-hours, and the assessment of the severity is completed, they will allow the cattle to move after inspection and treatment. This is what we have been told - after notification, they will come out and verify if any animals have open wounds. Anything identified will be treated and quarantined as outlined. The rest of the herd will be treated with Dectomax injectables or a pour-on like Exholt. They are reinspected after sed 72 hours. The treated cattle will be released with a permit or CVI to head to a sale barn, etc. If they are slaughter animals, it's the same process when they are released to the processor.
  12. Abbot issued a disaster declaration back in February. This didn't just sneak up on anyone. USDA committed something like $700M for a sterilization production facility in the Rio Grande Valley. They broke ground in April.
  13. He's explaining why he thinks screwworm reporting is down - because of the perverse incentive to the ranchers that report cases.
  14. Great guns. Everyone should own one as they are the pinnacle of teaching and plinking pistols. They are also an absolute ass-whip to completely disassemble and reassemble. This was the ever earlier version I was bitching about - same everything except the barrel isn't heavy and the grip angle is a little different on the two.
