re: Red River Shootout

Switzer never admitted to it, but Larry Lacewell did. Texas had been practicing a quick kick during the week. Lacewell was spying while dressing as a construction worker during the construction of Texas west side upper deck. During that 72 game, OU defense called out the Texas quick kick prior to the snap and blocked the quick kick.
BTW, what happens if Manning and Sarkisian simultaneously pull their heads out their a-holes and each play and coach a complete game? Holy cow.

Funny story about when the band was auditioning singers to replace Peter Gabriel when he left. They'd bring in a guy and he'd sing. Then they'd keep trying him and ask if he could do it something like this, Phil would then sing, and they'd wait for the guy to get close to it. After bringing in a few people the band finally had an epiphany and decided, Hey let's let Phil do the singing.

Historically speaking hard to see this rivalry as all that. For decades, these 2 teams were in different conferences. The Big 8 and SWC for so many years.
Another reason it's great, wrt past Big8, Big12, and SWC landscape. This game was and will be played regardless of conference alignments, even as it is today. This game will go on even if either or both team splits off to another conference or not.

Good for you! but remember what they say...
Gambling only pays when you're winning.
Hogs get slaughtered, pigs get fed.
But you seem to have a pretty good handle on things. Continued good luck!

From Darrell K. Royal Texas Memorial Stadium to the Cotton Bowl is 196 miles away. From Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, it's 191 miles. Texas State Fair is the largest fair in the world.

Just for the record, there's a whole lot more involved in Texas donations than just oil money.
Just a sampling of some of the Big Cigars.
Michael and Susan Dell: Dell Computers
John A. and Katherine G. Jackson: Oil
The Moody Foundation: cotton, banking, and mercantile trade
Red and Charline McCombs: Automotive, Media, Sports ownership
Peter O'Donnell, Jr.: securities industry, businessman and investor
Joe Jamail: high-stakes contingency fee litigation
James R. "Jim Bob" Moffett: Freeport-McMoRan, mining

Difficult for me to rag on Phil Collins, not only for his excellent music, but more importantly for his donation of his private collection of Alamo memorabilia.
During a show in San Antonio he and the band had some time to burn, so they took a tour of the Alamo. Collins was very impressed by what had occurred there 190 years ago. Afterwards he started collecting Alamo memorabilia and artifacts. Over time he developed a very extensive collection. Collins donated most of his collection, valued at over $100,000,000.00, to the new Alamo museum.
********************************************************************************
British musician Phil Collins donated his extensive private collection of Alamo and Texas Revolution artifacts to the Texas General Land Office in 2014. The collection, which included over 400 items such as a rifle and leather pouch owned by Davy Crockett and a Bowie knife, was gifted with the stipulation that the state build a museum to house them.
Recognition: In 2015, Collins was named an "Honorary Texan" by the state legislature for his generosity.

re: US State Department is aware of the possible death due to pneumonic plague in Russia

1950 The plot follows Reed and Police Captain Paul Douglas as they race against a 48-hour deadline to locate the murderer of a man found to be carrying pneumonic plague. The film features Jack Palance in his film debut as the gangster killer and Zero Mostel as his accomplice, blending crime procedural elements with public health drama. It won an Academy Award for Best Writing, Motion Picture Story.
Nothing new in the world, however this new thing is probably some gain of function shite, otherwise it wouldn't be a big deal. Pneumonic plague still shows up from time to time.
Don't know why you're getting down voted. This stuff is 100% fatal. I guess if there could be good news, it would be a fast burnout if people croak so soon.

The death rate for pneumonic plague varies drastically based on the timing of medical intervention. Untreated pneumonic plague is almost universally fatal, with a mortality rate approaching 100%; victims can die within 18 to 24 hours of symptom onset.

There will also be no army dumbass
Absolutely their will be a collapse of the army. In addition, the IRGC and regular army members weren't born and raised in test tubes. They have family that will be suffering. They have grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters, etc. They're going to know how their families will be suffering while they'll not be getting paid and maybe they're receiving food only, while their relatives suffer. Their paychecks don't go to the nudy bar in Tehran, it goes to support their families.
This ain't going to last once the military sees their families suffering.

Person As dividends will be treated as ordinary income. Single person A will get only $16.1 K deductible. He'll be paying a lot more than $4,418 in taxes.
He will not qualify for any government benefits, he makes to much just from the dividends.

To father that has 9 yo playing little league.
What is your guesstimate that teammates have living in the home, real, full time fathers?
I ask because a well done study on elephant herds that had adult males removed, encourages adolescent males to misbehavior, aggression, and even sexual assault upon the females. The teen males would roam in gangs. Once the adult males were returned the adult males dropped the hammer on the misbehavior and the adolescent males immediately minded their Ps & Qs within the herd.
