… buy a trailer and plant yourself in the vast expanse of West Texas and live out your days alone?

All I would need is internet access and a car. Maybe some good hiking boots and a liquor store within 20 miles.

I’m doing this. Wife is not coming.

Craig Faulkner put one on the roof of married student housing in 85 or so.

On the one hand, I am embarrassed that I share the westbank with your ignorant arse.

On the other hand, you are an ignorant arse.
Is he still with the big-tiddied blonde?
How is it that a fine conservative woman who doesn’t toe the maga line is deemed less good looking than a chick who looks like a platypus? You people have lost your fricking minds.
My kid is just starting out with his first “real” job in another part of south Louisiana. Needs an apartment but I want him to be able to eat and go out for the occasional beer. I always heard 30% and assume it’s still a good rule, even though everything is way more expensive than it was even 5 years ago.

I tune into Fareed's take every Sunday. He is reasonable in his views on foreign policy and economics. Good interviewer, too.

When do we invade Greenland?

I look forward to staying up late and watching it on live TV, like I did when we invaded Somalia.

Those Greenlanders are a wily and crafty arctic people numbering about 40,000. They have plenty of hunting rifles and know the terrain. Scattered towns towns on rocky coast, with no roads connecting them, could make it difficult to seize and hold territory. I think we are possibly looking at months of blood and toil to seize what is rightfully ours.
Genetics. Our people are mostly shrimps.

Well that sucks... need to stick it to China and bring manufacturing back


It would take multiple decades to do that. Ain’t happening.
My great-great-grandfather was captured by Union Forces three days earlier at High Bridge. He was in a cage at Appomattox when the papers were signed. Then they let him go.
As the article points out, TopGolf is stalling and likely looking for way out of the deal. I’ll bet $100 it never gets built.

Read something this morning about record numbers of 401k holders bailing out of stocks in the last few days.

Not smart.

what made this better that you can work out?


PT, ESI's, and time. I've actually been better for a few years. Just took a while to get back.
Had not been since 2014, when I had to quit weights due a herniated disc in my neck. It's like I stepped into a whole new reality.

1. Yoga pants and crop tops for women. Goodness gracious. I need to wear dark glasses. It's simply incredible. (Of course, a majority of the women wearing this apparel have no business in them. Stretchable fabrics are a privilege, not a right.)

2. Arab dudes and hispanics have discovered the benefits of physical fitness in huge numbers. Perhaps my gym is just extra ethnic, but I don't remember it being like this a decade ago. Not complaining about the latinas (see item 1).

3. People sit on machines and look at their phones more than they used to. They don't seem to be taking a break during reps. Just staring at their phones.

4. Yoga pants.

Is it just me, or her face just sort of average? I can see middle age not being kind to her.

re: La Tort Reform dead for 2025

Can someone tell me why Jeff chose to get into bed with these fricks? Why did he take their money? He was not at risk of losing the election if he didn't. In fact, he might have done better than he did.

As I said in another thread, real tort reform would reduce insurance rates. But nobody in this state has ever seen real tort reform, so they don't know what it looks like. Real tort reform basically will put the plaintiff's bar out of business. (And defense lawyers like me, I am afraid. But so what.)
