  1. Maybe 2 or 3 of those guys would have made the cut in San Antonio. Maybe Fatrick or Bryson makes the Masters cut. Possibly Phil because of experience.
  2. She’s a true believer in public service and protector of the oppressed. I think she is courageous, especially if she can prevent chicanery.
  3. Oh, and she interned for Al Gore and hasn’t once voted R. They hired her without an interview.
  4. And I loved your text, let’s talk on Monday.
  5. Thank you, and I agree. I’ve already got a major aerospace project dead in the water because the FedRamp professionals have all been fired and replaced by 23 year old Tesla bros. Shit is going to start breaking in federal IT. Actively adding to technical debt isn’t the flex they think it is. Nobody on my team can reach any contracting officers. Still, unless they decide to PIP me I may have just deferred taking a package at EOY2025. One of my very good friends used to be in IT Management with JPMorgan, and now he runs a construction contracting company. Happy as a lark.
  6. I chuckle when my generac app notifies me that my unit is “exercising.” I’m guessing it charges the starter battery and moves oil around. That reminds me, I guess I need to extend the warranty past 2026 as mine was installed in late 2021. And to the previous post, I need to change the oil on my small Honda backup backup unit.
  7. Some guys on YouTube also said cottonmouth scales protrude over the eyes and cover them when observed from above.
  8. Some of these Amazon reviews are hilarious. I’m glad my wife is a noncombatant. Dirty bastard lol
  9. If I had acreage and outbuildings, I’d get a cat. But I have a regular lot surrounded by public wetlands and detention ponds, and my dogs love to eat cat shit so that’s the friction there. Just found this water snake in the back, maybe he will eat them. Since zero day when I started this thread, enemy casualties are nil.
  10. Found a cool snake ID app. It saved his life. My dachshund found him in the garden.
  11. Cottonmouth or water snek? I’m thinking the latter.
  12. On Monday my sister starts her job as a lawyer with CBP.
  13. She’s a beaut, Clark.
  14. Which is why I’m using them inside the house exclusively. I didn’t choose to escalate the conflict. I was happy to send POWs merrily on their way.
  15. Well at least the 6 figs I have sitting in a passbook savings account is safe for now. How much can I get for selling blood plasma?
  16. Have him consider Space Force.
  17. That might be a good idea for the garage.
  18. Haha From @southland, I mean. Not to threadjack but my wife was facing some serious retaliation bullshit in her state agency by a smarmy little fucker who was trying - and failed - to force her out. Wanna guess what that guy does in his side gig? You guessed it, minor division college football referee. Not enough that he gets to destroy morale and cultivate toxic work environments M-F, he spends his Saturdays insisting upon himself on the gridiron. Mr. Whistles is his nickname. I’d imagine a lot of referees are real assholes IRL.
  19. Thanks for that, @monkeydonut. I may just do that to expand the combat theatre of operations. I love king snakes and usually have a few of those huge scary looking fuckers visit from time to time, but obviously can’t rely on them. Regarding bait, what is the very best? I came across a tube of something at Tractor Supply last week that claimed to be superior to cheese or peanut butter, but didn’t buy it. Around Christmas, I threw a half dozen mice into a Home Depot 5 gallon bucket and when I returned a few hours later half had been killed by the others. And outdoor cats leave too many snacks for the dogs. They may be 99.99% wolves genetically, but I’m not raising them as wolves.
  20. Any updates?
  21. A trade-off in moving directly next to a 10,000 acre woodland/field is that for the first time I’m in a kinetic war against mice, both in my house and in my garage/shop/office complex. What started last winter as a humane trap campaign is finished, as the little fuckers have figured them out. No more LARPing. The rubber-bullet halcyon days of humanely tossing live mice into the grass 300 or so yards away has escalated into a full-blown holocaust. So I ordered a big box of glue traps, a pile of cardboard and adhesive contraptions that can be folded into a small oblong box for discrete and sanitary disposal. I caught the recon patrol this morning, and euthanized them while asking God’s forgiveness. My CYHMWT question is other than having a professional inspect and protect my house against infiltration points, is there a better solution than glue traps? Constraints - I’ve got 3 dachshunds, and would rather they didn’t get their inquisitive little faces ripped off by snap traps. And no indoor cats.
  22. I just had a flashback. Would y’all find it weird for a woman have a C-section and then a tummy tuck while still under anesthesia? The way I remember it she was trying to swing a twofer with the hospital and anesthesiologist. It was 25 years ago, but at the time I could buy the logic.
  23. Agreed. Awful. I couldn’t imagine that call. I grabbed a few hours with my soldier at Ft. Polk/Johnson on Sunday; enough time to eat Crawfish in Deridder before his TDY ended. SF treats their guys like adults.
