  1. Nill already out front for 2025-26 NHL Executive of the Year! lol
  2. I think the idea is you need flood sirens in places along the river where people congregate and camp, not "downtown" Kerrville. That's near the summer camps, the RV parks, etc.

    This is true. I finally gave up and leave it uncovered. I finally just ordered replacement stainless flavorizer bars from Home Depot. In hunting for the serial number -- for the life of me, I can't find one on the damn thing -- I clicked the igniter and it seems to be working again. In retrospect, I think I helped my wife (then new GF) pick out this grill for her house back in 2013 or so we've got 12 years with it. It's been a workhorse.

    I've got a Klose offset, a large BGE and a Weber Spirit propane grill. The offset doesn't get used that much. The Weber gets a lot of mid-week action but it appears my ignition starter went out last night. It's 10+ years old with heavy use and the flavorizer bars needed to be replaced too.
  5. Wow, Amy is my best friend from HS's widow. I mentioned it on one of these Hill Country flood threads. Amy, originally from HP but lives in SAT now, was the equestrian instructor when my buddy was working in the kitchen during summers off from Baylor.
  6. This.
  7. The fuddy-duddy "Howdy Doody" mayor thought his entire time in office would be cutting ribbons and riding in parades. He's wholly unqualified to be the face/POC of one of the biggest tragedies in state (US) history. Twenty-seven girls from well-to-do Texas families are gone forever and he looks like an incompetent clown in the PC's. What a dope.
  8. I've stopped watching them. It's clearly amateur hour when the Kerrville/Kerr County folks are up there. I expect the fuddy-duddy "cowboy" mayor from Kerrville to be worthless. They know they fucked up bad. The governor of Texas should not. Director of Homeland Security should not. I'd call that a win if they can get a system where sirens go in down there. I bet sirens would've saved every last one of the Mystic girls who drowned. When we dropped by to see our friend and his wife, we were there less than 10 minutes and he said they're gonna sue the shit out of somebody before this is done. His wife is a Park Cities lifer and went to Mystic for many, many years. Lots and lots of loyalty to Mystic. Rest assured, Mystic is done.
  9. In that vein, the special session is coming -- and they're gonna discuss the important issue of redistricting. I'm sure this has nothing to do with trying to protect a razor-thin margin in the House of Reps.
  10. Mystic is going to get sued into Bolivia and will not exist moving forward. Yes, they should've been more prepared considering they were ultimately responsible for 750 or so young women aged 8-18 or so. It does not change the fact that there apparently was not a well-oiled early flood alert system in place for Kerr County. That's on them and also to the state leadership. But Mystic will pay the ultimate price because you can't sue City Hall and all that. El Paso, Uvalde, Mystic -- ain't nothin' gonna change until enough people get fed up and vote these no-talent assclowns out of office. I hope I live to see that day.
  11. Wasn't she "boots on the ground" and at the press conferences starting Saturday or Sunday at the latest and still didn't authorize the additional help until fucking Monday? Not sure if I read it in one of these threads but I don't believe the actual director of FEMA has even made an appearance, or spoken about the tragic flooding. This is the same moron who had to be told, "Yes, Virginia, there is a hurricane season." It's been pointed out that $1M was ear-marked for Kerr County to set up some sort of early alert system, perhaps even a siren, but Kerr County officials didn't want to accept any moneys from a bleck POTUS who wore a brown suit on occasion. Biden later authorized moneys but same story -- we ain't takin' no 'sistance from a Dumbocrat libtard. MAGA!!!!!!

  15. Who died and made you MBS? Or are you MBS? Elon isn’t gonna have nearly that much money if he keeps fucking around like this. The finding out part is coming.
  16. The Eddie Charles character was pretty damn funny. (That actor was on Seinfeld as the boys club director that wanted George to chaperone a kid to Paris.)
  17. Probably not in retrospect. The reason I've seen for the camp geography is that the hill is a lot more difficult for the younger girls to traverse as many times as it must be done during a typical camp day. The mess hall and other activity areas were down there so camp officials must've figured it's better to have the younger girls located closer. Where the cabins were situated was a much bigger factor than who was sleeping in them. There was enough water to kill whoever was in those cabins when the water reached them. The camp should've been aware what was going on sooner than it was.
  18. Rita is a FB "friend" that I've never met. She's a very accomplished BBQ cook in Texas and that's how we connected online. (Really close friend is deep in Texas BBQ scene and knows all these folks, including Rita.) I had no idea any of this was going on until I jumped on FB mid-morning on the Fourth. I saw her videos, read her story and was aghast. I knew she was in the Hill Country but I wasn't exactly sure where. As the day went on, the news got worse and worse.
  19. Good? LOL
  20. Not sure who this Ashly Moody twat is
  21. He ain't wrong.
