And I'll add there are way too many doctors who do.

That's the core difference between the two board discussions: one is a discussion among people watching the trial and one is CNN viewers screaming.

It is not like we've been tearing up XII over our tenure.

They've probably already started a bail fund for the killer. I continue to be fascinated by what triggers the crazies.

Please let it be Longhorn Monkey!

For the real lawyers here ... not looking good for the defense, eh? The jury taking this long points to conviction on something?

I couldn't hang with Ozark and Peaky Blinders after Season 2.

https://www.dallasnews.com/news/education/2021/11/17/feds-open-civil-rights-investigation-into-southlake-carroll-schools-nbc-reports/ The U.S. Department of Education opened a civil rights investigation into allegations of discrimination in Southlake schools, district and federal officials confirmed. The department’s Office for Civil Rights last week informed the Carroll school district -- which has been at the center of an ongoing firestorm on how to handle diversity and inclusion -- that it opened three investigations. NBC News first reported the news of a federal probe. An education department spokeswoman confirmed that the investigation is looking into “allegations related to discrimination based on race, color, national origin, or sex.” Karen Fitzgerald, a spokeswoman for Carroll ISD, wrote in a statement that the district is “fully cooperating with this process and diligently pulling all documents requested.“ She declined to share more information on the specifics of the requests, citing student privacy law. “Our focus will always be what is best for our students as we prepare them for their next steps in their educational journey,” she wrote. The affluent, mostly white district -- the subject of a six-part NBC podcast -- has become a symbol for what backlash against “critical race theory” looks like. The district recently attracted national attention after an administrator advised educators to teach students about the Holocaust from “opposing” perspectives, according to an audio recording obtained by NBC News. Trustees also voted to reprimand a teacher who gave one of her students a book about anti-racism entitled This Book is Anti-Racist: 20 Lessons on How to Wake Up, Take Action, and Do the Work by Tiffany Jewell. The book is a New York Times best seller. Last week in a video message to parents and students, Superintendent Lane Ledbetter vowed to shift his focus from uniting the city to uniting the school district. Ledbetter has been in his role less than a year. “My job is to take care of our staff and to ensure that we’re providing a world-class education in a safe environment for our kids and our staff,” Ledbetter said in the video. “And I apologize that I’ve been distracted.” Ledebtter’s first year as superintendent has been embroiled in controversy over the district’s proposed diversity and inclusion plan, called the Cultural Competence Action Plan. The plan -- intended to make the district more inclusive for students of color -- was drafted by a council of more than 60 parents, students and staff after videos of Carroll students chanting the n-word went viral in 2018 and 2019.

When you argue with a fool, it's just two fools arguing.

FIFY.

I get it. I guess I was just distracted by the focus on it being Pirate's Booty. I mean we've bought it for the kid's, but did not realize it had reached zeitgeist.

I ponder this a lot ... it is a weird time. I think we have historic precedents where there are armed thugs in the streets doing the will of the state and being actively supported by

I heard the guy that hosts the legal insurrection channel that is covering the trial. They prosecution charged him with arson and has him on ice so basically he could take the fifth during the Rittenhouse trial to avoid implicating himself in the arson charge. I have not taken the time to research it, but that is what the legal insurrection guy said, and he seems to have a good handle on the events of this case.

Larry as our collective Id.

It did a great job of showing how the Cold War played out in the trenches. At the end, I was not really cheering for anyone. Your post reminds me time for a re-watch ... I have a genetic defect where I cannot remember TV shows or movies LOL. Just reminds me again of how it's begging for a sequel.

My wife just broke my Cole Hamels shadow box with a throw pillow. That is all.

It seems like they always default to whatever is the hot name at the time vs. looking deep to find the right fit for Texas. That's why we keep ending up with Strong, Herman, Sarkisian. Even Mac underwhelmed outside of the Vince-Colt years. A good coach has be be not only a good coach but also a good coach for a particular situation.

Getting destroyed by Kansas ... I would have been willing to put Dicker under center. At least go full Idiocracy and put Canseco on the mound.

And how they're going to miss Fatterson.

You ever seen a movie or TV show? Need more Mo - his family breakfast was a nice touch. The final scene should be him and Rip sitting on a porch, sharing a beer. That California guy was not a stereotype. The llamas were a nice touch. That was peak Californian.

The entire Pirate's Booty thing was completely lost on me ... The Leon watermelon thing with his buddy from the Whole Foods was funny ... more Leon always good.

That's the greatest thing I've seen in a long time.
