  1. this buck and these exact coordinates will appear in a new Turnpike Troubadours song in 2025. "The Bow Hunter"
  2. if I were to need to burn my insider trading source, I do a professional hit and have them purposely lay a false trail with a well known book title clues as a red herring.
  3. Son got an antlerless up at the ranch with my father in laws LH savage 7mm-08. Not sure if it was really legal, but I'm sure it looked like a doe to a 12 year old and a 72 year old geezer. Im not a hunter myself - I just drink bourbon in the woods without that excuse, and sleep in on those 33 degree mornings. Holes are more my vice. Son is getting a savage axis II in 7mm-08 for xmas; he really wanted a wood stock, so that is what I found.
  4. When they turn the pages of history When these days have passed long ago Will they read of us with sadness For the blizzards that we served? We turned our cream From the in the distance Up side down On the path of least resistance
  5. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc2hjy
  6. The real danger of AI is now apparent...
  7. what we've found (Mills County, near a tributary of Pecan Bayou)
  8. Hoist! not too much progress. Below where I was is a shelf of rock at least 8". Started at I was hoping to bring back the big jackhammer to sell it but it was necessary. Hoist was good to lower it down. from 152" to 168" but for part of it. I can tell how rocky it is, because the last bit was generally a ratio of 1 bucket of rock to 1 bucket of dirt. But today it was probably 2:1 rock to dirt.
  9. lagging (side support that resists horizontal force) in for all 3 levels. No excuse but to dig deeper. Emergency ladder in.
  10. bev-hole update Put in 2x8s on all 4 corners. Of course the walls were 1.4" wider than the 4x6s, not 1.5". Had a coupe of rocks that were sumbitches. Took out 3 buckets of dirt and 3 buckets of rocks.
  11. Somehow the parties have reoriented around the 1973 Armadilo World HQ Redneck - Hippe axis. Ds got the hippies, Rs got the rednecks. And there are more rednecks than hippies. Now I happen to think Ds have better economic policies that benefit the working class, including rednecks. But clearly cultural issues bring rednecks to the Rs. I'm not going to argue that is a narrow media bubble phenomenon, because I think on certain issues (immigration, trans) there are real differences. But I do know there is only one solution: Willie Nelson. Only Willie or a Willie-like figure can bridge the rednecks & hippie divide. Ds need to ask themselves: What Would Willie Do? And if that means sparking of a J to share with Billy Joe Shaver, to see what rednecks want, then make it so. And Ds need to find out what Hispanics want and not just assume they will vote D. Amd after all: Willie made a hit country song with Julio Iglesias. Ds can find themselves back in the White House - just as Willie once smoked up on the rooftop with Jimmy Carter - but they have to stay the course. Maybe consider some populist tax policy, like Willie and the IRS Tapes. Now maybe the 2024 election was like with Willie's wife sewed his drunk ass in a sheet and beat him with a broom. But she forgave him, and the American people are fundamentally a Good Hearted People.
  12. not sure if this helps but my mom is in assisted living, and I bet any ADU is comparably larger than those units. You are a good in-law.
