  1. Thor Ragnarok. I laughed with it. Not a bad movie.
  2. 358 users on shaggy is absurd. Who is so dense as to continue to visit and post on Shaggy?
  3. Selfishly, I wish the state of Texas would invest in water infrastructure projects. Namely additional reservoirs along with desalination plants along the coast that pipe that water inland. It isn’t economic to build but Texas is going to need incremental fresh water supplies in the decades to come.
  4. Natural gas has already given us very low energy costs in the US, to the point that nuclear plants are not commercially competitive at the moment.
  5. Not a chance in hell he resigns, unless doing so makes him more money than staying in office. Resigning in disgrace is not likely to lead to profit.
  6. TCAD says values for 2018 not available yet. Where are you seeing your numbers ?
  7. A few drops in 78757. I want a lot more.
  8. Good to see the US acting in concert with its allies against this Russian assault.
  9. ^^should make for a fun filled election night.
  10. Have to sell that click bait. Lots of time between now and Election Day.
  11. That thread is the Bogleheads forum. If that is your strategy, that forum has everything you need.
  12. Do Pompeo and Bolton share similar views and goals ?
  13. I don’t see impeachment happening with a GOP Senate through 2020.
  14. Great. We can improve to 8 wins. Yippie. Doesn’t make me enthusiastic. Let me know when we are winning the conference.
  15. Checking in. Been cord free for 10+ years. Sports are the only challenging aspect.
  16. Assume Dems take the House in spectacular fashion. Assume GOP keeps the Senate. Do Dems stay energized for another 2 years when realistically, controlling the House slows Trumps agenda but does not advance the Democrats agenda ?
  17. Not a chance. Looks terrible.
  18. Need to block out the work calendar for this.
  19. I am trying bkackberries, but in pots. Lots of online stuff recommends them in container. Getting multiple varieties. Planting them in peat moss + pine bark soil conditioner plus drip system on timer for pots. Don’t expect any real production for first couple of years. Also trying 2 blackberries in the ground this year. Both are thornless floricane varieties, so no real production till next year. Put a couple different varieties of tomatoes in pots over last 2 weeks. We I’ll see how they do.
  20. I put on my application of Milorganite. Crabgrass seems to have overrun my St Augustine in large spots. Premergent didn’t hold it at bay. Not seeing many chemical options that are safe for the St Augustine. Been doing some hand pulling, but that is too little too late. Hoping the St Augustine will crowd it out here later in the spring if I keep it mowed but a bit longer. Just don’t want to see seed heads on the crabgrass.
  21. So maybe the search committee should focus on candidates with actual government, politics, and education experience for a larger higher education system.
