  1. Spent an idyllic week in the first campground on the other side of that creek. Even a small squall swells it enough to make things sporty.
  2. I am very very close friends with her mother. Just gut-wrenching. Texting right now with her husband, to whom in some ways I owe my life.
  3. Shit. I remember the day Ella was born. Her mom and Dad are two close friends. https://kfdm.com/news/local/search-underway-for-kelly-hs-grads-missing-in-catastrophic-hill-country-flooding?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR4HO9TMSU6vvH5zx7qyVSODdnoGk8I0CFl6M660C50BG3KfjnfNTfwLNWwLjg_aem_WRQL1u6kacGok7ZBH8_xsw
  4. Thanks, fellow Presby.
  5. I'm reading a biography of John D Rockefeller and discovered he greatly endowed the Spelman Seminary for Black Women in the 1880s. That's where Martin Luther King’s mother and grandmother studied.
  6. Skote Outdoors. Guy buys a decrepit shack on an island in Newfoundland and goes off the grid with his cute little wife. Oddly satisfying to see adventurous living.
  7. Oh man…sending positive energy your way.
  8. The weird thing was they were airside of TSA, so intended for departures.
  9. The cops always have the best drugs. Just saw this at ORD and guffawed.
  10. Walked around the Manassas battlefield this afternoon. Twas but 103 degrees but I did take a while to imagine the short-range artillery battle in July ‘61 at first Bull Run where they wailed on each other from a mere 300 yards. One can imagine the blood soaked earth.
  11. TIL i can buy a San Angelo Husky bar for any upcoming hole requirements.
  12. My daughter's friend group in Chicago has someone periodically bring it from Michigan because IL set their taxes…too high
  13. Small world. I too passed Cornerstone while taking my kids to the best early childhood program in San Antonio, at the JCC. Was so happy when they moved it to NW Military.
  14. Honestly I don't give a shit about the weed as I gave it up almost 15 years ago. I'm just impressed that wheels vetoed something this insane clown posse of a lege passed.
  15. Wait, you're not completely out by now? Color me impressed. I'll never underestimate you again.
  16. At this point Putin should just release the video of Trump getting pissed on by the Russian hookers, it wouldn't even blip the simulation.
  17. Or income. I knew the grift was there somewhere. I'm thinking of sending them a nickel.
  18. So what’s the current depth? Genuine holy jackhammer, Batman! you de-gloved part of your hand?
  19. RTX (Tomahawks) NG (B2), Boeing (GBU-57) plus 200 other suppliers all stand to benefit, as does TX OG. Some of you might have noticed Midland’s own ASTS stock price doubled since Musk pissed off Trump, reducing the likelihood that Starlink gets to fire up their direct to cellular 5g Sat service which would incidentally cause mass interferance on Verizon, AT&T, and Vodaphone’s terrestrial cell service. I was at SOF week in Tampa a few weeks back and I’m sure the drone war folks are just chomping at the bit to see what Iran does with the Strait so they can field test their systems. IMO this was 100% a demo of what we could do to an uppity non-christian, theocracy who probably didn't actually have the bomb. And it gives the cyberwarfighters some needed exercise. I'm headed do DC for meetings tomorrow and this post is a bit of a thought exercise for client discussion. In church this morning, during a sermon on Matthew 5:13-16 I tuned out and prayed for the Iranian people. Politicians and dictators need enemies and it’s Iran’s turn in the barrel.
  20. So how's the hole progressing? The Iran thread got me to thinking.
  21. I hope so.
  22. Poor Justin. Took a quadruple 9 on 13.
  23. Oh yeah, I know all about The Iconoclast. I've told this story before, but indulge me. The woman is my stepmom, great grandaughter of James Harris. The man on the right is the great grandson of Judge Gerald. He was in my 2nd wedding and is one of my closest friends. He and his wife, and my dad and stepmom traveled the world together, lifelong friends. One night while enjoying a fine Italian dinner I asked Gerald what he had been doing, and he replied “well, I was in Waco doing some research as my ancestor was in a gunfight with a newspaperman named Harris.” my stepmom paled and said “ wait, my ancestor was killed by a judge in Waco” I stood up and said “Yall need to hug this out right this minute” All because then president of Baylor, Rufus Burleson, took in an orphan who ended up pregnant. http://wacohistoryproject.org/Moments/geralds.html Tl;Dr if the Baptists aren't actively involved in a scandal, just wait a bit and it'll happen.
  24. Well said about Waco. Which editorialist?
