  1. OU badly, badly want revenge for the dick stomping we gave them last year. Every extra rep, every extra stair or lap for the Sooners was focused the last year on trying to erase the memory of the brutality of last years loss. They want it so bad they can taste it! But alas, they are gonna take it in the ass...
  2. the primary thing that makes Fos NOT a News Station, is the omission of actual news when it might make the snowflakes shiver. Today one of the big news stories is one of the co-conspirators in the Trump elections RICO case in Georgia took a plea deal. Try to find that actual piece of news ont he Fow "News" website. It doesn't exist! Because Fox isn't a new station, it is a propaganda network run by foreigners with no allegiance to the United States at all. And the lemmings slop it up....
  3. McCarthy should have presented some bills with his new and ever evolving demands. The border is a mess. But the GOP has blocked funding of judges that could more quickly handle asylum cases and folks would not be here for years without a hearing. But... they needed tax cuts for millionaires The funny thing about the Drug Cartels, is that we gave them idea of becoming heavily armed, and dominating regios, and later countries. We sent arms and created militias in South and Central American during the Reagan and Bush administrations that lit the candle for today's cartels. Once the CIA money dried up, there was a profitable business for the taking. We supply so many fucking guns that originate in the US to the cartels, but that's not something the GOP can talk about. Plus as far as the Cartels go we had a fantastically forward thinking Republican policy when the war on drugs began. And it's so simple! .... wait for it...... "Just say No!" Immigration was the lowest when Obama was in fucking office! Because there were 8 years of forward thinking policy that was aimed at trying to work with the countries that refugees were fleeing, to help keep them there. As for "the wall" why didn't the GOP fund it when they were adding Trillions annually to the debt? Because they don't give a fuck about it, except to cry about their not funding in and blaming... you guessed it the Dems. Hell White Supremacist Orange Jesus didn't build even 100 miles of new wall... but... dems fault! The GOP house is most akin to a 4th or 5th grade student government. They just can't do a fucking thing about anything! Just whine...
  4. Nope. It's because McCarthy didn't have the balls to say "fuck you" we can go to 63 votes on the initial speaker election. But the one thing that is certain is that McCarthy will go down as one of the most cowardly speakers in the nations history. Just like he flew down to kiss Trumps ring. Him being speaker is simply more important the entire United States government. HE is a cow, not a bull, so he can't lead. What sucks is we got great inflation news today and the markets started to move upwards. But the children who added $8 trillion to the debt in 4 years now want to damage the economy. They are fucking children! Fuck when was the last time the Republicans actually solved a big problem nationally? When was the last time they even made a proposal that could even remotely possibly pass on anything big? Just whine, and whine, and spend and spend, the cry about the spending. Repeated again and again. Hell, I've been waiting 30 years to hear about their healthcare plan!
  5. Actually the debate stage looked like the Seven Dwarves, and they were simply visiting with each other, while waiting for their Snow (bronzed) White Supremacist!
  6. The debate stage last night was really a behind the scenes snapshot of what the GOP is today. A group of children, talking over each other, and refusing to engage in debate, and having absolutely no class or manners. What is the difference between that debate stage and McCarthy leading discussions with the nimrods wanting to shut down the government? Not a damn thing! They are identical. This is the party of children, and the party of liars. And their kids are gonna be as fucked up as they are.
  7. Agree with all the above. That's why I said "A Republican Style..." Which sort of by definition means stupid...
  8. Since the State of Texas has chosen not to address the clear and urgent issues regarding the stability of the energy grid here in Texas, I believe it creates an opportunity. What if those who want weed legal simply take advantage of this gross dereliction of duty on this issue. I also assume that when those nearly daily energy conservation alerts are put out by ERCOT the folks most likely to turn down their thermostats are the exact people that the State of Texas hates. I would actually love to see a chart of who does and does not adjust their thermostats with the pleas from the state to conserve to save the fragile grid they designed. What if on the same days that ERCOT is begging the citizens to conserve, folks that want weed legalized run their air conditioning down 2 degrees all across the state at 4:20 pm, when energy supplies are lowest. Now I know that this is not a real possibility, because most Dems would not actually want the power grid to fail to make a point. I do NOT think you can make the same sort of assumption with our Republican friends. As Republicans routinely damage the economy and the country with their hypocritical government shutdowns over spending concerns (they never have when GOP presidents are in office.) But it's and interesting proposition to me. Of course since Greg Abbott and company didn't fix the grid, they probably don't have a plan for fixing it after it fails. So I don't think the risk reward would be worth it. But damn, if Dems were only as consistently irresponsible as our Republican friend it would be an interesting way to pressure the legalization of Marijuana, to the rural racist based current government control. #420blackout
  9. Ok got a little delay but heading down next week for a month on and off stay. Water looks great on the good days, and I see some trout and redfish heading to a plate nearby. With the OU 11:00 game time locked in, I see some early burnt orange sunrise surf fishing followed by a complete Burnt Orange eclipse! (I hope like a mofo!!!) Anyhow, if you see a fat fuck with an incredible head of hair in Port A over the next month, say hello! I can't fucking wait for my beef fajitas, and hopefully the off menu crab stuffed portobello at La Playa! Just need to hear the surf again, and see that long sunrise.
  10. Well that sucks. The amount of Tax increases the Texas government has created via fees, sales tax on restaurant liquor sales, snowpocolype consumer pass through, and shit like this is why the coffers are overflowing with tax revenue. Shit like this is fucked. Especially when we allow ridiculous Ag exemptions for the super rich to avoid property taxes. Sorry.
  11. Her purchase price was the value of the home at the time of sale. Property taxes are paid in Texas on the prior year instead of in advance. You need to appeal the appraised price, as it was the value at the time of sale. And the increase in appraised value may indeed be $600,000 more, but she should only babe on the hook for a 10% increase per year. But this also should have been done the second she received the proposed value letter. I don't know what you are talking about with a 12 month anything related to homestead. It's either your homestead or it is not. Did she buy the home and not move in as her homestead? If not I don't see how the value should not have been the purchase price. Unless she should have protested the error sooner and there is some clock on that legally. I had a high appraisal on a house I bought at Auction. I went to the appraisal district, showed the documentation of the sale price and they adjusted it to the lower price. YOu might also asked for this to be moved over to the all encompassing real estate thread.
  12. Welcome to the home where you are going to build your legacy! Hook'em!
  13. Hell I barely drink beer, but when you woke at 4:30 am to go fishing and it's after 9 am often a beer is the only option for breakfast. That's why each beach trip I buy a 12 pack of Modelo. To give to others... or for me for breakfast!
  14. If Bob was smart he would just switch parties. Then claim he was prosecuted because he switched parties! And the Republicans will make sure that he doesn't go to jail from a weaponized Biden crime family justice department!!! The fact Melendez changed parties after he was indicted, won't make any difference at all. Just like nothing factual does!
  15. You know how when you thought a guy who wasn't asking any questions wasn't serious about his Job? Well that mofo was serious as shit about getting benefits to live lifestyles of the rich and famous, and the law doesn't apply to him! Welcome to The GOP Supreme Club! Corruption is fine, pass the fine wine!
  16. Hmmm.... Looking at at all the numbers, this sort of seem like a case of "you can't teach stupid!" Or more accurately, "you can't coach aggie?" But you sure as shit can fleece the fuck out of Aggie! 😉
  17. The funniest thing about the best win of that season, against Alabama, would have been impossible. Except for the complete and total lack of respect the Alabama football team had toward A&M. Without that complete and total lack of respect, A&M doesn't beat Bama.
  18. Aggies just do Aggie shit. Which is code for ... fucking stupid shit. Just focusing on recent history of stupidity... This week they were proudly identified among the most conservative college campuses in the nation. But fiscally they are really, really really dumb. They just botched a hire where they gave a settlement to the head of the UT department of Journalism... Because they were so conservative, they allowed the evil of diversity to not want a former A&M graduate who made an incredible name for herself. Cost $1 million. They also love to make long term guaranteed football head coach contracts. Where they paid Kevin Sumlin 10 million not to coach, after amassing a .667 winning percentage. And presently are looking at a $70 Million buyout of Jimbo Fisher. Since Jimbo signed his 10 year no cut contract prior to the 2021 season the Aggies have had a #1 recruiting class and a 15-12 record with their a $9 million a year coach! Here is the buyout by year for Fisher- Jimbo Fisher's Buyout: Amount & Breakdown 2022: $85,950,000. 2023: $76,800,000. 2024: $67,550,000. 2026: $48,750,000. 2027: $39,200,000. 2028: $29,550,000. 2029: $19,800,000. 2030: $9,950,000. I too believe that A&M is a very socially conservative campus. But the amount of money they spend where they receive nothing at all in return, is staggering. And that is FUCKING STUPID!
  19. Finally got my shoes in and they look pretty good. Combination of leather and nylon mesh. Color could be slightly darker, but as good as half the gear out there. Pretty please for $110. Still wish I would have just gone ahead and put "HOR" "NEY" on the heels... but stitching is clean so unless they fall apart I will be happy.
  20. I guess the fun question is... Is the Big 12 so bad that A&M could come in 3rd?
