  1. I don't know but I think charging $1,100 a credit hour and doling out no-doc $150k+ loans, that are not subject to bankruptcy, to every HS kid with a pulse for an "education" that may or may not contribute to the earning potential of the liable party is a pretty solid grift.
  2. I can't find a link but upthread somebody posted that SVB incented clients to keep more deposits with them via favorable loan terms? So it sounds like Roku et. al. may have maintained deposits in excess of insured-levels not because they did no risk mgmt. but because they needed/wanted those better terms. Maybe we shouldn't allow that (banks to encourage customers to exceed insured deposit level). It also sounds like a lot of their customers don't have significant revenue so their deposited loan is how they make payroll, next week and every week after that. So without any cash flow to fund ops, you are more likely to see a bank run. But I'm an idiot.
  3. Yeah it's not the term it's the buyout.
  4. too late to edit but you can see a roll-off in this Street View from 6/2022 https://bit.ly/3JphdQh
  5. I think I found it, maybe, 810 Goliad St Ck. street view from: 32.248433, -101.469646 https://bit.ly/3ZyMvtA
  6. Always thought Swayze should shoot the abandoned Mental Hospital (?) or whatever right there in Big Spring (unless they have torn it down). I can't find it now but I drove by there many years ago and snooped around outside some. Looked proper spooky.
  7. I've been on a few ranches up around Springer, Clayton etc. If there is good ranching anywhere in NM Des Moines haz it.* I doubt the Route 66 gift shop does that much business. * Nearest tourist attraction - Goodnight Loving Trail rest area
  8. I have taken a few pics of that myself. Some years ago I did some work very near the Rattlesnake Air Base (?) and immediately when I saw that building I was like "holy shit is that the Pecos Parachute School from Fandango?" I googled around and went looking around for other locations.
  9. Can confirm pretty decent HEB there in Big Spring.
  10. The Casa de Groover's from the movie Fandango (in my avatar) was/is in Pyote. I had a pic of what I thought was the house but I can't find it /csb edit: Fuck me there are now open, operating businesses in Pyote, incl a restaurant, C-Store, and RV Park.
  11. No I was jealous of that one too. I lived in a town that was an hour from being an hour closer to something much, much, much shittier than a Walmart. If it was open.
  12. You think the majority of rural Texas is 80% Trump? 1 - that is oddly specific, so you may be right, but I would be surprised 2 - it appears your aversion to a good portion of the populace is sincerely held. So if anybody knew the specific % contagion, it would be you. I'm pretty sure I've lived in a 70% TX (or close)Trump county, and I'm sure I now live in a 70+% Biden county, and those two things would be the absolute last on my list of relevant factors in what it was like living in either. It sucks this would matter to anybody. One of them has no fucking HEB, I will tell you that. And then I will tell you again. Also forgot to mention if I had enough money of course I could live anywhere, even Oklahoma.
  13. Folks who think small town Texas sucks have not been to other States' small towns. I grew up in one and have lived in others and am pretty much jealous of every small town in Texas. For small town smack talk I'll submit my Hometown and places I've lived in were listed as ghost towns.
  14. My bad I thought the OL got credit for the first 3-4 yards regardless. Withdrawn. But I was hoping the first Bijan highlights I found did not show unblocked DL in the backfield. Call me crazy.
  15. It helps when your back makes unblocked DL miss in the backfield. That is really my only point, I only posted the video because the very first play from the first and most popular search result showed a missed block and Bijan negating it in a way very few players did last year, for a result where the stats posted gave our LG credit for a successful play when he whiffed completely.
  16. I was going to find a I love these stats, but I decided to find a run where the line gets credit for Bijan's effort. The first play of the most popular 2022 highlight vid on (my) youtube the LG misses his block almost completely and Bijan makes him miss (youtube https://youtu.be/5Mmtfmqb0MI?t=17 won't embed). I don't know that I disagree with that analysis overall but it is obviously not perfectly objective.
  17. I would say that Nick Saban won 7 and the SEC tied him with 7 of their own, which is impressive.
