Like all crime, the smaller stuff adds up to be tremendously costly. Clearly people without a clue giving people a pass.

A couple of Woody Allen movies come to mind.

Zero defense works both ways.
Also, not so sure a few EMPs over the U.S. wouldnt' do more damage than a dozen nukes hitting their target. Our society would go to absolute shite in 24 hours. I'm talking nasty shite.

Kind of the same in Mexico. Except for very rural areas.

Not at all what I expected on a cruise ship. Then 1 second in it was exactly what I imagined.

Same, really want to take 2 out of 3. Not the end of the world if we don't but it kind of stalls momentum of the last 3 weeks if we lose the series.
Oh... and frick the Texas AD. :cheers:

re: Texas A&M @ Texas Baseball - The Series
Posted by Tridentds on 4/25/25 at 8:56 am
Was time to get over it and move on right after the move was announced. Timing of the leak was bad but not his fault it leaked. I never complain if someone moves on for whatever reason. Apparently he had some issues with AD and promises not kept. Understandable to be perfectly frank. It’s over now.
Ready for the weekend series.

re: Massachusetts bans gas leaf blowers
Posted by Tridentds on 4/23/25 at 1:58 pm
In Houston there are areas where the use of gas powered leaf blowers is severely restricted to certain hours. Been like that for 15 years. Residents also managed to get restrictions on train speed and the use of horns at night.

re: Texas baseball gets to play weaker SEC teams on the road and gets the better teams at home

How did LSU do last night vs a weaker OOC opponent at home?
LSU must have absolutely raked and lit that scoreboard up.. Amirite?

re: In basketball, can NIL be based on stats?
Posted by Tridentds on 4/23/25 at 5:59 am
Sure but that would only work if all interested teams used those metrics. As a player you would go where those aren’t required… in other words… where the money is guaranteed.
Just the nature of NIL today, some teams will always be willing to not utilize the metrics and guarantee the money. The use of metrics in NIL never gets off the ground. Now if you are talking bonus based compensation on top of NIL salary… surprising if that isn’t already being done.

re: FDA banning petroleum based food dyes
Posted by Tridentds on 4/22/25 at 3:39 pm
Certainly not the first time I have posted this but I was in the offshore hydraulic fluids business in oil & gas for many years. Offshore they use water-based fluids so they can discharge to sea in deepwater water after functioning a valve. Fluids have food based dyes in them to assist with identification if a fluid is leaking somewhere topside. Some of you guys offshore know MacDermid, Castrol, and Houghton... BOP, Mocomp/Tensioner, and water-based production control fluids.
Some of the food grade dyes used in the Gulf of Mexico in water-based"environmentally friendly" fluids just 3 years ago were banned in Norway in the late 90s from discharge to sea. In the GOM they passed required EPA toxicity testing until 4 or 5 years ago and even then they were given X number of years to try and find replacement dyes.
So 24+ years ago many of the dyes found in our food here in the U.S. were banned from discharge into the North Sea because they were tested and found to be too toxic and had insufficient biodegradation to be discharged to the open sea. Apparently it was still good enough for human consumption in the good ole USA.
Crazy what food companies have been poisoning us and our kids with. It would be considered criminal in Norway if it was 1998. Autism on the rise in the U.S..... you don't say??

re: How to prevent cypress knees from popping up in my yard
Posted by Tridentds on 4/22/25 at 3:25 pm
Impossible. I've tried everything. Probably cut off over 300 knees in my front yard over the last 15 years. Have 2 big ones in the yard that we put in with a 80" spade truck 20 years ago. I HATE these ankle breakers with a passion.
re: How to get tickets for LSU@TAMU baseball - May 2 ?

I grabbed 3 tickets awhile back. Thought it was stupid money then. Things have really jumped up since Tenner no hit us. Don’t feel so bad now.

Absolutely it counts. Pay zero attention to them.
