Thank god I just stocked up on TP!

LOL! I bought a Members Mark package at Sam's last weekend.

Do not let overpriced USA living cloud your judgment.

Just compare what $1million gets you in Manhattan vs. what $1 million gets you in say Enid, Oklahoma.

---

Enid is actually pretty affluent, relative to other cities in Oklahoma.

Harold Hamm (Continental Resources) lives there. He's one of the wealthiest people in the US.

Horrible camera work.

This is actually a good example of his cognitive decline. He is spouting complete nonsense and probably confusing Iran with Venezuela. But, because he is saying it forcefully and not drooling on himself, it's more difficult to identify as dementia.

---

I have no doubt that the IRGC probably uses drug trafficking as a revenue stream. It comes with the territory in that part of the world.

But why are we just now hearing the President talk about it? That has never been on the list of grievances before now.

I tell you what that stretch of interstate 35 between the northern suburbs of Dallas and the Oklahoma State line is some of the narrowest roughest road in the country. I can’t imagine 100 mile an hour plus on that stretch.

---

You are right about that, but I doubt they took that route.

US-75 runs directly from Dallas to Durant.

There has always been a lot of progressive types in Texas.

Texas has never been as conservative as people want to beleive and its not because of hispanics.

Especially since Rick Perry and Greg Abbott actively recruited Californians to move to Texas, along with H1B Indians and Muslims.

Can I ask a question? Why is Paxton so disliked? What is this baggage?

---

There are multiple reasons. Just take a look at his bio.

One example: his wife of 40 years filed for divorce while he was actively running for the Senate. The grounds: infidelity.

In 2018 he admitted to an affair and said he was recommitting himself to his marriage. He lied.

No big deal, you say. Lots of people get divorced.

Except that he was a self-professed devout Christian who wore his Christianity on his sleeve as one of the reasons Texans should vote for him.

She's pre-med.

She's a college freshman.

When I was a freshman I knew a lot of people who said they were "pre-med" who ended up never graduating.

You can't really lump not getting an IV as a failed execution though.

---

Yes, yes you can. They had one job to do, and they failed.

quote:

---

Lots of people are very hard to get IVs started on.

We're not talking about randoms in a hospital. We're talking about high profile state sponsored procedures with witnesses and a lot of media scrutiny. Not to mention additional cost to tax paying citizens.

They should have a plan B prepared in advance.

How much is this ineptitude going to cost the tax paying citizens of Tennessee?

That's pretty insane he didn't die. Call me a pussy, but there's no way I'm going 175 mph without a helmet, hans device, 5-point harness, roll-cage, and fire suppression system. That's just too much kinetic energy to mess with for me. Humans are quite squishy.

---

Do you have any qualms about going 75 mph?
