  1. When I read Putin's statement I thought it was kind of weird that he ended with Maduro always being welcome in Russia. Seems to me Putin may have had information that Maduro would need that refuge, and right soon.
  2. He looks like he's fixing to play Tequila on the jukebox and dance on the bar, except not nearly as cool as Pee Wee.
  3. I've thought before that a squadron of P-51s or Corsairs would be right handy to intercept drones. Better yet, a squadron of A-1 Skyraiders. Those things had loiter times measured in days, not hours. (Ok, slight exaggeration. Still...)
  4. Hmm. Every time that the Democratic candidate gets some positive press or momentum we are graced with some "both sides!" posts. No, it's just coincidence.
  5. Didn't you know that Schloss threw the last two games to screw aggy on his way out the door at the request of the evil CDC and Texas? In fact, the team did so well in spite of that no talent hack, not because of him. It is only wild coincidence that 3/4 of aggy's wins at Omaha, and their only appearance in the final series, came under his coaching. Schloss had nothing to do with it. Texags said so.
  6. Wait! There's wanted anal leakage?!
  7. Every woman I know says that Pete's big head gives them the boo-boo geebies. No way in hell he's getting laid, even if they're drunk.
  8. Great thread to have. On KBTX news last night they ran a story about a woman in Brazos County who is challenging hundreds of voter registrations at the county voting office. While almost all of the challenges are thrown out, some are not, and I bet that other voting officials aren't being as conscientious about it. I suggest that everyone check their voter registration status at https://www.texas.gov/living-in-texas/texas-voter-registration/ to make sure that they haven't been improperly removed from the voter rolls. Get your family and friends to check, too.
  9. I used to work with an aggy engineer who had seats in that end zone. He left before the start of the first game because they were swaying dangerously just from the crowd entering and moving to their seats. He told us later that he reviewed the plans for the reinforcement and didn't believe that the planned improvements would adequately address the problem. He refuses to sit in or near that section. He is aggy, but I trust his judgment on structural engineering matters. Operational matters, well that's a very different discussion, but he knows structures and construction.
  10. My dad tells me that this was my first in-person football game. I was 6 months old, so I don't remember this play, but I was there.
  11. So Newsmax is trying to convince me to vote for her? It's working.
  12. If I see that right, the shooter cop sent her over to the stove, saying that he was worried about a fire. I think that shit went sideways that fast because he set her to be shot.
  13. That is not smart at all. Dems lose the tie breaking vote in the Senate when she becomes President, and there's no way the Republicans allow any approval vote for her VP pick to even be taken. We'll be without a vice president until January, and next up in succession is Johnson. Harris wouldn't live a week. Nope, it's ride with Joe until his term is up.
  14. Oh, what I wrote doesn't mean that I'm not practicing and accumulating necessary supplies. If someone starts I mean to finish, but I'm not going to start.
  15. I agree that political violence is unacceptable. I also believe that political violence from the right is unavoidable now. I have several acquaintances who are full scale MAGAts who regularly post right wing violence posts on Facebook. These slowed in the days after the assassination attempt, but never stopped. They are too far gone in their fantasies to come back now. If it had been President Biden instead of Trump, we would have already had Boobert, MTG, or Goetz file a bill in Congress to require mandatory marksmanship training in public schools.
  16. I saw a picture of one of the RNC attendees like this on the news the other night. The TV was muted, so I got the picture out of context at first. My first thought was, "Why does that dude have a teabag taped to his ear?" Took me a bit to realize the cult connection.
  17. Or their turrets removed and used as ersatz armored infantry transports.
  18. Before the 2011 game an aggy former coworker was telling me that the crowd noise would disrupt Texas' play calls and timing. When I pointed out that my high school football team had worked out how to overcome crowd noise in the 70s, he shifted his story. He said that the overwhelming noise from the crowd struck actual fear into the hearts of opponents, and that it made visiting players envious that they didn't have such an awesome home crowd. I just had to laugh, which wasn't appreciated.
  19. I think that hitting Chernobyl would cause enough radiation leakage that Europe would have to respond militarily. That would be very counterproductive for everyone.
  20. Might have been rude of her, but now we'll never know. Way to go, Romeo.
  21. Military and LEO snipers are trained to only shoot when they have a clear identification of the target and are certain that the target must be neutralized. If the local LEOs were responsible for that particular rooftop the SS snipers would have to ensure that the shooter was not a local LEO and that he was an actual threat. That takes time and judgment, and usually confirmation. It seems to me that once the shooter drew down on the LEO who climbed the ladder, the SS snipers assessed the threat and got lead on target as quickly as possible. The shooter was just able to roll back over and fire at Trump two or three times before the snipers got their rounds off. The rooftop should have had a law enforcement presence on it in the first place. That's where I think the failure lies, not with the speed of the snipers.
  22. Bitch, you're just mad because the dog you starved and abused then let off the chain hoping it would attack the neighbors bit you instead. Shut up.
  23. Death stalks the land.
