  2. I'll never understand the amount of time and energy people put into talking, debating, and arguing about politics, as if politicians truly have our best interests in mind. One day, people will realize that it doesn't matter whether you're Republican, Democrat, liberal, conservative, white, Black, brown, or anything else. At the end of the day, none of these politicians—from the local level all the way to the president—don't have the public's best interests at heart.

  3. Not surprising..... There would of been absolutely nothing he could of done that you would approved of. That's OK though - no money from US is being given to them, and if they don't live up to agreement, we have option to go back to bombing......

  4. I used to say that but apprenticeships and technical certifications or trade schools show that you can finish something. The military is the same. Do people really need English composition, humanities and intro to science classes for most jobs? I would venture to guess that in a majority of jobs, a person who has done 4 years in the military and was honorably discharged (and probably has a learned skill) should rank higher than a person who has English Lit and consumer math with a sheepskin. Looking at google out of curiosity, up to 41% of college grads are not employed in a job that deals with their degree and 52% at least initially take jobs that do not require a degree. I didn’t dig into how many eventually gained employment in jobs that actually require a degree Obviously some jobs should require a certain level of education such as medical doctors, lawyers, school teachers, certified accountants, HR people, perhaps banking, etc. Other than those, I think the need for college is way overblown.

  5. Sadly, a lot of school districts choose to let the pervert resign so they don't have to report it and take the time to go to court. If you remember several years ago a Memorial coach was jailed for this and when it came out that there were allegations at other schools, the girl sued those schools. I don't remember the outcome of the lawsuits. My favorite professor at Lamar, Coach John Payton, always told us to never be alone with any of your students. I have lived by his advice now for 33 years.

  6. There's really no point engaging with that poster. He's a troll, he has a stage 5 case of TDS, he's been banned multiple times and keeps coming back creating new user accounts/names, thumbs his nose at forum rules and the moderators, and the best he has to offer is some drive-by post to try and stir things up. Meh.

    That is easy to say, but I'm not sure more perception than reality. Trust me, my Dad built me a 65 Mustang from the ground up and gave to me for my 16th birthday in 1982, custom paint job and all.....so I know where you're going, but.... My work Truck is a 2011 Ford F150 Lariat 5.0 Coyote engine......When I parked her at work today, her milage was 309800. She has original engine and transmission. I don't recall 1960's or 1970's vehicles getting that kind of milage out of original engine. The only things that don't work are key fob....cause my ex-wife washed it...SMH - and the rearview camera (cause I don't wanna fix it) I don't drive her any further than I want to toe her home......but she makes he drive from Port Arthur to Vidor 5 days a week, plus around town on the weekends.

    You are correct if it's any deal that leaves the current regime in place. The amount of time until it comes back to bite us will be the only question. Sorry. I don't have TDS. I have experience with these folks. Hopefully, my posts have shown that I am somewhat competent on these type issues. I'm not even a 'Debbie Downer.' Again, it's just experience. And I could care less what the 'Trump don't play' crowd has to say. They've been wrong on this conflict from day one.

  23. I've never found the concept of MAGA that difficult to understand. I guess everyone could have an opinion of when America was great, or maybe some people think that America was never great..... I remember a time when folks went to school with shotguns in the back glass of a pick up.....and no one one got shot and no one stole the gun.....and that was in Port Arthur in 1981........ We fought in school and after school and no one was stabbed or shot.......most kids had 2 parents...... I honestly wouldn't mind going back to that time.......

    Houston wins 3-1. Astros have won 6 of their last 8. This is as close to .500 (39-43) as the Astros have been since April 16 when they were 8-12.

    The curse lives on. My wife and I have been to at least one Astros game a year starting in 2019 (except 2020 of course) and they have lost every single one. Brought our 2 year old daughter to her first game on Saturday, but she was not enough to break our family's bad juju smh.

  35. The Supreme Court recently ruled that federal courts could not order states to gerrymander districts to create majority minority districts. In the case of Louisiana v. Callais the Supreme Court said that a state could not be ordered to gerrymander districts in order to create more minority representation districts. To do so would violate the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. Some courts and people felt that discrimination was okay if it was against White voters. So in Callais, Louisiana was allowed to redraw their districts. Up pops Alabama. In a challenge to the Voting Rights Act, a special master was appointed to redraw the Alabama districts about 3 years ago which had been set by the state legislature. The federal special master disregarded the legislature and drew the state districts by gerrymandering in order to force more minority representation. After the decision by the Supreme Court in Callais to not have federal courts decide state districts, another challenge was made in Alabama to enforce the federal approved districts, again ignoring those enacted into law by the legislature and the decision in Callais. The federal court in the Northern District of Alabama stepped up and again interfered with the Alabama legislature map. It was like Callais never happened. So naturally, there was an appeal to United States Supreme Court. They ruled yesterday that the federal court in Alabama needs to get back its lane and butt out. Alabama’s district map will remain as the legislature drew it and not a federal court approved master.

    Clay Travis @ClayTravis · 14h In June of 2022, gas prices averaged over $5 a gallon, inflation was 9.1%, the murder rate was 6.3 per 100k & S&P 500 was 3675. Four years later gas is cheaper, inflation is roughly 3%, the murder rate is 4.0 per 100k, & the S&P 500 is 7600, more than double four years ago.

    He can’t. He won’t. But, right now, he’s lost the support of those who didn’t want him to start in the first place, and he’s losing the support of those who realize the need, but want him to finish the job all the way to regime change because they know it’s the only way.

  47. Just looked it up. They are actually #1 in that category of combined no-hitters. No other team has more than 2. What an odd stat. 4 in the last 8 years. They now have 18 total no-hitters which is tied for 3rd in all of baseball. Amazing when you consider how young the franchise is ('62). They surpassed the Reds tonight who have been in existence since 1882 ("modern version"). Tied with Red Sox, Cubs, and Giants as of tonight. The Mets, same season of inauguration as the Astros have 2 in team history. Edit here as I found one more stat...since 2022 the Astros have more no-hitters than all other teams COMBINED. Just an amazing statistical anomaly.
