Aren’t they building some of those drone ships?

Whatever the drone ship program is called, it’s a fantastic idea of government procurement. They picked 3-4 companies to produce up to 150’ vessels to do all sorts of missions.

Hmmm

You might want to dig more into that roughly $2 million is set to receive via the new sports gambling tax revenue.
8th Louisiana Infantry Regiment, traced him fairly accurately. From the valley campaign to Gettysburg. Missed Antietam due to illness.

He spent his captivity in Fort Delaware. Not 40 miles away from his own grandfather’s childhood home, who’s family still lived there at that time.

But worked with democrats the last two years, what’s that exactly say about conservatives and conservatism?


It says that massie isn’t the conservative stalwart he thinks he is. There aren’t many true conservatives left. There are socialist communists, naive leftists, rhinos, republican-lite, and maybe 3-4 in all of congress who are true conservatives. Working with the democrats doesn’t make you conservative because you go against maga on niche subjects.

He’s an idiot and should have been voted out. He lost because he doesn’t have the support of his constituents.

I’m not mad enough at the squirrels this year to hunt. I think I’ll take the time to bush hog and clean up more trails. We are a bit behind bush hogging our pastures too.

I’m just glad the highs of the mid 90s right now don’t feel like the devil’s arse of a couple of weeks ago. The humidity can stay the hell away.

Andrew Jackson’s fight with the central bank.
Equal protection lawsuits swing both ways…
They were for the L. A. Mayor’s race earlier this year, and not just one candidate.

They wasted it on purpose. The core of the Republican leadership is against their voters interests.


Exactly this. The senate gop leadership thinks the rino way is the way to go. They believe they are smarter than the American populace that put Trump back in the presidency as well as they think conservatives will come around and see they are correct. All the while they lose races, lose support, piss off their base and do nothing that goes against their own agenda.

This is why they haven’t allowed recess appointments. They’ve been actively against what the conservatives wanted.

Now we get a choice, vote out leadership and try to keep the right in power, or let the insane asylum take over. There is only one choice and it’s not democrats. Yet the rinos are that bitter and petty about their own political power.
America is building those Iranian drones as a cheap alternative. It could be ours.

Completely right about that. Also “Revenge” as the headline? Hey espn, kiffen wanted to see last year through at ole Miss, ole Miss said no and kiffen moved on. “Revenge” will be in 5 years when ole Miss money can’t make up for loosing a coach.

Admiral’s club chicken and beef with potatoes. Texas H&S beer before the flight back to Louisiana.

Should be settled in by the time the game starts.

And a South LA hunter would try to kill 36


I’m from South LA and have a hard time counting to 30, much less 36…

We try to shoot does when they get to be too many. This year will be one of those years.
I don’t believe it, produce receipts or shut up.

Think they were in the sun belt together in the 90s up until 2001 when Tech left for the WAC (still never understood why they did that)


The football team was independent, then joined the big west conference in 93-95 timeframe, then independent again until joining the WAC in 2001.

In 2001, and subsequent years, the WAC was a good conference. There were some (figurative and one literal) brawls in Ruston. Jumped to conference USA when most of the better WAC left. Left CUSA as it’s a shitshow run of a conference. Judy rivals the SEC on incompetence. The Sun Belt is now a good home.

We should have just built those buildings back just like they were. No bugger FU to the terrorists.


I agree, but I believe the biggest reason they didn’t was they couldn’t lease that much office space again, so the buildings wouldn’t make money. Even the current building was having difficulty filling out the lease space.
I fully expect lsu to win handily next weekend, but don’t act like tech didn’t go into tiger stadium last time and had the game close at 24-20 at one point in the game, then the matchup before that, went into halftime leading lsu…
