  1. I’d like to bring up an extremely subtle point from last night that I believe subconsciously produced a very strong positive response from women. My wife several times last night while watching the proceedings remarked how happy, excited, and supportive Kamala’s husband seemed. Apparently that really made a positive impact on her. It’s something I probably would have not noticed. I’m thinking a lot of women noticed that, either consciously or subconsciously, and made them feel good too.
  2. The only supposedly “rationale” pro Trump argument voters point to is that they are voting for the platform, not Trump. That means basically Project 2025. So I guess there are people out there that believe the ideas in Project 2025 are actually reasonable and consistent with American values, which of course they aren’t not. So to summarize, no. There is no logical argument.
  3. Yup. This is exactly the Trump voter. I would just add that you could call the Pro Life voter, the religious voter.
  4. As much as he was a policy geek, I really liked him. He had a plan to solve the deficit. With both taxes and spending.
  5. This is awesome!
  6. B10 Ohio St over Oregon B12 Utah over Iowa St ACC Florida St over Miami SEC Georgia over Alabama The rest of the playoff - Texas, Oregon, Miami, Bama, Penn St, Mississippi, Memphis, LSU Georgia beats Texas for the title.
  7. I wish they wouldn’t have put the Chicks on tonight. No upside. Some downside.
  8. She only sent her pajamas? What good will that do?
  9. The bigger question is why are all the gifs now found in a Google search mostly found on yarn? That abortion of a website is completely unusable. Eff yarn.
  10. This board would be much better if everyone would just put the troll futureman on ignore. Trolling really shouldn’t be allowed in this thread imo.
  11. July and August recruiting under Sark is never a comfortable time period. There are always misses mixed in with hits, and as a result it always feels on the edge.
  12. I’m going to need you to fill out a form stating your whereabouts 49 years ago, along with a stool sample and fingerprints.
  13. 4th and 5 and Crash Davis, if you are ever in my vicinity in person, your drinks are on me.👍 Now, game on, motherfuckers! No updates to report as of 10:17 am this morning, but new shit has come to light.
  14. The arguments over inflation are maddening for me. Both parties have been massive stimulators for inflation. Go back and look at deficits under Trump and Republicans. They are terrible. And while Democrats have used taxes to often run lower deficits, they’ve still been too high. But @Enchubban can’t see it, and the left Surly Cabal ignores the factions of their party that want to overspend and overtax. Just implement the recommendations compiled by moderates bipartisan groups and the problem would at least be under control. The plans are there already. But nope.
  15. Fun fact that will blow your mind. There are areas in Portland, Eugene, and Seattle that have the same average annual rainfall as Austin.
  16. The Republican Facebook propaganda copy and paste, explaining why Trump doesn’t matter. This is the disinformation that is capturing the dipshits. From Facebook: *********************** I shake my head sometimes with Trump and Twitter, BUT To all those who say..."I'd vote for anyone but TRUMP... I can't stand him!!" or "I can't believe you're voting for Trump!" Well folks listen up! This is not a jr. high or high school popularity/personality election!! I'm not just voting for the person, I'm voting for the platform! I'm voting for the second Amendment. I'm voting for the next supreme court justice. I'm voting for the electoral college, and the Republic we live in. I'm voting for the Police, and law and order. I'm voting for the military, and the veterans who fought for and died for this Country. I'm voting for the Flag. I'm voting for the right to speak my opinion and not be censored. I’m voting for secure borders. I’m voting for the right to praise my God without fear. I’m voting for every unborn soul. I’m voting for freedom and the American Dream. I’m voting for good and against evil. I'm not just voting for one person, I'm voting for the future of my Country and our Constitution which was written based on Biblical values and protects our freedoms under God! What are you voting for? God Bless the United States of America Copy and paste, I did!!! ************************ I can’t believe people are so gullible.
  17. #dump-mlb-umps. Bring on robo-umps
  18. Yes I remember him saying a few things. And Ross was from Westlake, so it sorta made sense that it was really Ross.
  19. I have a very sophisticated approach in play that will ultimately end in exactly what you describe.
  20. Not so fast. I have found some information which is relevant to this situation that would partially corroborate my memory. However, I will not publish the information here yet because I don't want to sully a potentially innocent man. I'm looking for more solid evidence to bolster what I've found. However, in my commitment to this thread to document my Putter Revenge Tour 2024, I have reached out to one of Bobby's descendants to investigate the whereabouts of the putter. I will report back if and when I hear something from this person.
  21. ya, I'm searching and thinking that maybe the reason I remembered the name Bobby is because he was the pro there when we played. It may have been someone else in the clubhouse.
  22. Holy shit, this might be the guy. He had curly hair back then but wore glasses like the picture.
  23. Silas The Serious.
  24. And I want it back. As a young boy in the mid-1970’s, I played golf with friends at Hancock golf course in Austin. We played all the time. Someone would drop us off early in the morning, we’d play all day, and then someone would pick us up in the late afternoon. One day the guy working the clubhouse noticed the putter in my bag. He wanted to buy it. Unbeknownst to me at the time, it was valuable. It was an antique MacGregor putter. My grandfather was a PGA golf professional and I inherited it when he passed away. With that putter I was deadly good. It was incredible. When I later came out of the clubhouse, it was gone. Fucker had stolen it, but I had no proof. The adult me would have beaten the shit out of him until he gave it back. The 11 year old me had no option, so I just had to brush it off. Another day, this asswipe tried to setup private lessons with me and my buddy. We both declined. Years later, this asshole was arrested and convicted of diddling little boys, presumably found at Hancock while he worked there. He went to jail for awhile. This guy might be dead. He might be alive and in jail. Or he might be alive and out of jail. If he’s alive, I want to track this guy down and find out what happened to my putter, even if it means visiting him in jail. I can’t remember his name or the year he was caught. Google searches proved fruitless. His first name might have been Bobby. He was caught somewhere between the years 1978-1995. There were Austin American Statesman news stories about it. That’s how I found out originally. If anyone can help me figure out who this guys was, I will chronicle my putter revenge tour here on Surly, and forever be in your debt. Edit: this is all allegedly.
