You elected him.

Yep. It's my understanding too. I'm just wondering if other parts of the beach were available, why the jeepers, partiers, etc. weren't just diverting their little operation to those unrestricted areas.

Agreed

If I'm being honest, I think it's trivial at best. To me, the term to "86" something or someone means simply to get rid of or replace it - not necessarily through death or violence. I can't stand Comey, but this is a ridiculous non-event that shouldn't be wasting valuable time or resources. Move on, nothing to see here...

I hope it's treatable, and he makes a full recovery. For his sake and his family's sake.

Excuse my ignorance, but were there any parts of the beach that weren't a part of the Jeep weekend and weren't shut down? I'll hold my narrative 'til I know the answer... @thetragichippy @bullets13 @baddog

Now, was it a fried bologna sandwich with mustard & cheese? Cuz I can see that.

Yep, you're correct on that process to a tee. You have to be careful though. Sometimes your home is under appraised, but you are pointing out a minor flaw in their appraisal to get your tax burden lowered. It could result in a larger appraisal by the next year at the latest. Gotta be smart and pick your battles wisely.

I love it!

Yep. But what they fail to address is that without a decent driveway, no way in hell am I getting the appraised value for my house and property.

WAAAY off topic, but your comment reminds me of a joke: "You know the problem with female referees in the NFL? They keep bringing up stuff you did like 3 games ago..." 🤣

Blanket asylum at the current levels our buddy Biden brought us too? No... Not no, but Hell no.

I agree with the better part of your post...especially the part of the ridiculous short-sighted mandate for school vouchers which I feel will cost all of us Texans in the long run. The property tax system is far from perfect, but it's definitely better than a state withholding tax in my opinion. One of my biggest issues with the property tax system (which is a whole 'nother topic altogether) is the property valuation process. For instance, certain aspects of your property are not taken into account when appraising its market value. My driveway was all but destroyed from hurricane Harvey. I appealed my valuation to the appraisal district, and I was told driveways were not considered when appraising the FMV. So if I have a $500,000 house, but no way to drive to the house, don't you think that has a bearing on the property valuation? Same goes for the land. Much of it damaged by the flooding, but according to them, it is inconsequential to the appraisal. I could list examples all day, but I'll stop there for now.

Good rule of thumb. If it's a Silsbee post, specifically, you will hear about it if you stray... Otherwise, feel free to post whatever. Lol.

Yep. I lived in some of those neighborhoods close enough to walk to Edison Middle School. They were pretty bad then. Now it's even worse...

Please. Please do it here.

What a bad move...

Wrong answer bud. I don’t do that.

The unfortunate thing here is I am keeping an open mind, and you are only interested in playing the blame game. You have more in common with Trump than you realize. Lol.

NBC News: Trump Admits Mistake: Donald Trump appears to have walked back his claim that he saw a video of cash being transferred to Iran. Newsweek: "He valued the apartment at $327 million in 2015 and 2016 financial statements based on claims it was 30,000 square feet in size. However, the triplex was 10,996 square feet. The only thing they have, Trump concedes, is the triplex, which was a mistake." NBC News: "On June 23, 2019, Trump discussed the border, why he stopped a planned military strike on Iran and what he called his “biggest mistake” as president: appointing Jeff Sessions as attorney general." Joe Rogan Podcast: "I will say it always comes back to the same answer, the biggest mistake I made...I picked some people that I shouldn't have picked." Try again partner. I can look up more if you'd like... Took about 2 minutes to look these up.

Please sir, name me a true leader that does that. On the federal level. I agree with your premise, but that doesn't happen on either side of the aisle. Hence my disdain for most politicians. And if you're gonna bitch about it when "our" guy does it, you got a bitch about it when "your" guy does it too... Didn't hear much of this talk from '21 to '24.

If you truly believed that, I’d respect your answer more.

Fair enough. Just be happy the Democrat didn’t.

I guess you’re ASSUMING I voted for Trump in the primary? Trump got 76.42% of the primary vote. Haley only 19.68%. DeSantis just over 1.5%. Trump vs Kamala was the final choice. Everything else was a wasted vote. My vote counted and won by the way.

Still a cub!
