I don’t think pence is the problem if this is trueÂ

Pence is the car window that won’t roll down right, after you’ve already put a rod through the block, and blown the transmission by putting it into park while still movingÂ

I could get on board with a football season that started in late February and wrapped up around Memorial Day.
March football in Ames would be wild, and I could actually go. Â You would have equal likelihood of raging blizzard or 75Â degrees and sunny.
Plus spring snow is more likely to be heavy and wet vs. dry fall snow for extra fun

 Mike Tyson’s greatest quote ever was “everybody’s got a plan, until they get punched in the mouth.”
Although I like Mike, there is no way he came up with that on his own. Probably something Cus D’Amato told him when he was training him when he was young.
Anyway it’s the absolute truth, and the dems could learn from that if they would. The republicans have.Â
Tex Cobb used it after Larry Holmes beat the shit out of him too.

Or you’re probably still paying Bo Pelini to not be there and some poor sap lost a jobPelini deal was paid off at the end of last season, why else do you think he suddenly was interested in much higher paying coordinator jobs again? Riley was a lump sum buyout, only coaches getting paid off is basketball now

Nebraska still plays football?
The point is it’s a high budget program who laid off a key part of the game day program

I haven't done a livestock update for awhile, but probably should with the things going on. We are actually running cattle and hog plants ahead of a year ago pace now, but will have a short week next week. Fresh pork and beef are at the lower end of the ranges which should aid in restocking. Assuming we can keep the plants moving cattle supplies will get tighter into the 4th quarter of the year, while farrowing intentions are down sharply which could leave us pretty tight on hogs into 2021 especially if exports keep up the rebound.Â

I was a kid during the Carter administration, but I rememberer how the Iranian hostage crisis just took over the news during an election year and whatever Carter tried, it didn't work.  Most Americans were not affected day to day, but there were yellow ribbons everywhere supporting the hostages.  Ted Koppel had a show after the local news (which became Nightline) with "Day XXX" as the headline and news of the crisis, which after a while wasn't much news at all.  At first it was Day 20 and later Day 50 but by the time it was Day 300 it sucked.  There was also economic trouble, with high inflation and high interest rates.  Times were uncertain.
This feels to me like a worse version of those times. Â Now we are all affected by the shutdown and maybe less than a month away from real sickness and maybe death. Â AÂ lot of us are out of work, or a paycheck or two away from real trouble.
Reagan beat Carter, scared the crap out of the Iranians and the hostage crisis was over.  It was a turning point for America; after a year of gloom we had a happy day.  The economy turned around by 1983. By 1987 we were all talking about "greed is good" and Wall Street.  I'm not glorifying Reagan, he blew up the deficit and got us on track to more and more debt.  But he did scare the crap out of Iran, I remember that.
But I think Trump is toast, using the 1980 election as a reference. Â Carter tried and failed to solve his crisis and it took a change in leadership to do that. Â Trump seems to not be seriously working on solving his crisis;Â it won't be solved by his administration. Â America will want to turn the page. Â Unfortunately Biden can't just scare the crap out of coronavirus.
At least Carter was able to become one of our best ex-Presidents, I don't see that happening here.Â

I agree that it smells. The story seemed too on the nose. And you had to assume that NASCAR has security cameras around their garage and something would be caught on tape.Â
I didn’t know that Bubba’s crew reported it. But did he confirm it? You’d think he would want to see what was there, even if almost out of disbelief.Â
ÂRight wing people are all up in arms because it was such a questionable story from the beginning but media ran hard with it. It fit nicely with their agenda. It helped further rile up people. It’s one of their main functions now.Â
ÂAs a story it was eerily reminiscent of LeBron’s supposed incident at Brentwood California home. The one that wasn’t caught on tape, where they supposedly cleaned the evidence before even calling police iirc.Â
Maybe we stop making the one black guy have to be the lightning rod for everything. I’m sure Wallace’s team has been getting an enormous amount of shit from racist cranks already. You had fucking people flying Confederate flags about the race track like Greg Davis is running the organization, and everyone’s on edge. People got excited and carried away, but it’s not like it ended in any sort of brutality unlike a lot of interactions I could mention. But, sure let’s try and funnel all shit on to Bubba instead, regardless of who reported and how the officials handled it. Â

When I moved to Giddings for work in 1967, the beer joint across the street from the newly integrated elementary school still had separate signed entrances for “white” & “colored”.
I can’t say I’m surprised by that.Â

Maybe this will lead to an inverted Ceausescu where instead of the crowd turning on him, they’ll stop turning out triggering administration collapse that wayÂ

Oklahoma is hard core trump territory. Should they be worried or blame it on covid ?

A strip club in WIsconsin, huh? How much concrete or rebar do they need to reinforce the pole?
Generally the rule of thumb is a silo footing needs a 100 yards of concrete, so I suppose it’d be similar to that.Â

When the hell did the trend of "barndominiums" start up?
It's an overpriced structure that looks like a barn with shiplap installed. Â Calling it a "barndominium" is just a ploy by developers to make you think you're living a rural/ranching lifestyle.
It works better if you build a shouse, that way you can step out of your living room and do some weldingÂ

I'll always remember learning about Juneteenth as a non-Texan. I was 13 years old in the mid-90's, and visiting my Aunt and Uncle near Giddings, and we got brisket out of a shed that a guy my uncle worked with had made to celebrate it. It was the first brisket I had as that particular piece of barbecue culture had not made it north to the beef state yet in significant amounts. The experience left quite an impression on me.Â

So, at 30 Gaetz "adopted" a teenage boy.
Also, the argument in the committee was about black children and here comes Gaetz with "my son is Cuban." Â M'kay.
An adopted teenage boy that he never mentioned before today as well.Â

Just so I'm clear, Gaetz is definitively fucking his page, right?Â

Besides the fact that they were obvious racist caricatures, how many people even registered what the selling points of those stereotypes are for the non-old demographic?Â

I have noticed this as well about @EMAWesome.  He quick hits and then disappears.  I would honestly like to hear a clear explanation of his position.  But that shit in the OP was cryptic and nonsense. What is the issue he’s pushing back on?  I’ll just assume it was NASCAR banning the Confederate flag.  And does that mean “Dukes of Hazzard” reruns will be banned too?  Then I’d be pissed not being able to see Cathy Bach in dem daisies.
Say what you want about the flag, but the Dukes were right about cops.
