  1. Gotcha. When I was in Oaxaca, a couple of times a shady street dude would offer to sell me some “mezcal”. Felt like some dude was offering me coke. Obviously no way of knowing if it was legit or not.
  2. You need to audit better.
  3. Not sure I agree with you… Internationally, mezcal has been recognized as an Appellation of Origin (AO, DO) since 1994.[31][32]There is also a Geographical Indication (GI), originally limited to the states of Oaxaca, Guerrero, Durango, San Luis Potosí, Puebla and Zacatecas. Similar products are made in Jalisco, Guanajuato, Michoacán, and Tamaulipas, but these have not been included in the mezcal DO.[32] Within Mexico, mezcal is regulated under Norma Oficial Mexicana (NOM) regulations, originally NOM-070-SCFI-1994 (in 1994), by the industry body Consejo Mexicano Regulador de la Calidad del Mezcal A.C. (COMERCAM, the Mexican Regulatory Council for Mezcal Quality). This regulation became law in 2003, and certification began in 2005.[33]
  4. Upland bird hunting is a big deal in the Dakotas, KS, NE, etc. Selling bird hunts is a nice way to supplement farming and ranching income. Those bird dogs cover a lot of ground and do it very quickly. For those of use that hunt, it’s a sight to behold seeing good bird dogs do their thing.
  5. When I was a young man, I trained my black lab to retrieve dove. Best damn dog I ever had, retrieved duck too. I lived on the edge of town and had access to 20 acres of raw land to do the training. One day I decided to buy a few guinea fowl because I thought they looked cool. Bought em over lunch and put them in the back yard. Dog figures out what’s going on and after I leave, gets out of his enclosure. I come home and see the three bird carcasses in the yard with my dog just looking at me wagging his tail. It suddenly dawned on me that I was the dumbass, not the dog.
  6. I’ll cut her a little more slack on the goat. I’m assuming it wasn’t a pet and an old uncastrated goat probably does smell horrible. She said it would piss on its own head to attract the ladies, and it was near impossible to get the smell out of the laundry. And I can believe it probably did knock the children around. So I guess if you decide to get out of the goat rearing business… But she decided to kill the goat because she was on a rampage with the dog, and it was a stupid idea to put the story in a book.
  7. Listened to a longer audiobook excerpt; she got mad and executed the dog for her own stupid mistakes. A valued client group from Georgia that gave the family repeat business was about to go on their last hunt. In preparation for the hunt, the family drives many birds into a particular parcel of land. So what does Noem do? She decides to introduce a dog with known training issues into the hunt, and the dog proceeds to screw up the last hunt of the trip for valued clients. When the hunt is over and the dogs need to be transported back home, she is short a kennel, so Cricket is the only dog that wasn’t placed in a kennel. She narrates in the book that she wouldn’t care if Cricket jumped out of the pickup bed on the way home. Then she stops by a neighbor on the way home. And the one dog she failed to secure in a kennel, the dog that just screwed a hunt by chasing birds all over the place, jumps out of the truck and proceeds to go ham on the neighbor’s pet chickens. After apologizing and writing a check to the neighbor, she then puts Cricket in the cab of the truck instead of the bed. Maybe she should have put the dog in the cab before she got to a place with birds milling about in the open. So instead of reflecting on her screw ups, the dog is summarily executed.
  8. Now aren’t y’all glad y’all refrained from bashing the young Barron Trump? ducks…
  9. Slight addition…
  10. The boy is probably just a pawn being used by daddy and his crazy half-siblings and will likely just dutifully cast his vote for the great orange one. He should still be off limits until he opens his mouth and spews the usual Trump propaganda.
  11. I’m saying the political pro-Ivermectin crowd isn’t making a distinction between its effectiveness as a dewormer (which I believe there is no debate) and dubious effectiveness as a treatment for Covid.
  12. Oh there are Twitter posts revalidating the magic of Ivermectin after this news came out. Some have tried to point out its effectiveness on worms vs a virus but these idiots are sticking with their preconceived notions and whatnot.
  13. When you’ve lost NewsMax…
  14. Reading the responses, could be someone at The Fan.
  15. You’re new RNC spokesperson…
  16. “I’m saying I’m not talking about that meeting.” She’s not talking about that meeting that never happened.
  17. To be fair, a lot of kids would love to go to UT, my nephew included. Both his parents went to UT as well as three uncles and two aunts. But UT was harder to get into than when I and his father were admitted. He graduated from a prestigious private HS in Houston but wasn’t the crème de la crème. So he went to Arkie because some of his buddies in a similar situation in HS were going there. He is not dumb. i wouldn’t have gotten into Texas today…ok maybe I’m dumb.
  18. Republicans can’t tell the truth to save their lives. And to think I was one on them…many years ago.
  19. Alternative facts Sir
  20. Lots of RWNJ’s supporting him on Twitter. He’s not likely to do a lot of serious reflection. He’ll fit right in with the DFW realtor crowd.
  21. Yeah, aggie, $9.4M is in the same ballpark as $16.67M…
  22. I’m sure you can depend on Ole Miss to do the right thing when it comes to white racial misconduct.
  23. You’re a nice guy, but it’s a dumb idea. scenario 1: Quinn leads offense to 10 points on first two drives. Arch comes in and throws an interception. Opposing team scores on next drive. We lose a close game by three. Shit storm with fans and media ensues. Arch has to wait until the next week to hopefully redeem himself, with only one drive to prove it. scenario 2: Offense is scoreless first two drives. Arch comes in, scores a touchdown. Quinn comes in the rest of the game but doesn’t have his best game. Shit storm ensues. Now we have a quarterback controversy. Do you really want that? Arch will see action this season, at the place and time of Sark’s choosing.
