Our city requires a permit for installing a replacement door.  A FREEEEEEKIN' REPLACEMENT DOOR!  Not a new one, not a wider one, a larger one, the same size!

I took my son to it.  He is 13.

We talked about it beforehand and again after.  I pointed out that 15 year old boys going to war is very close to his turning 14 years old in March.

The footage is very gruesome.  It shows what the men really had to deal with in the trenches.

As it was a British documentary done at the point of view of British front line soldiers, the Dough Boys were not even mentioned.

Just signed up. Looked at a few threads. From what I can tell almost everyone seems to be conservative. I only picked up on one liberal.

Welcome.

Perfect example of what the FAR left is doing.  This is MY district; he's my rep. I've half a mind to go to bat for Cuellar myself.

First off, I did not know you lived in Texas.

Second, let the far left libtards burn their money in a district that will reelect Cuellar.  Keeps money out of more neutral, and close, Republican districts.

...and the sky is blue.

Now there are 2 things on this tread we already knew.

Asechrest, what’s life like on the ground in a Bowl City?  I’m torn. My daughter went to Veterinary School at MIssisippi State, but I hate the SEC and am a huge Big 10 fan.  MSU’s defense looks like the real deal. Holy crap. Simmons is an animal.

They just announced that the Outback Bowl brings $1 billion (with a B) in economic activity. I understand such things generate very significant economic activity, but 1,000 million dollars of activity?  That’s a LOT of Paella.

It is a 'b'illion over it's history.  32 years.  1,833,000 people at a little over $500 a head.  Tickets, food, hotel, gas, hookers, parking tickets....

My wife did her residency and fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic. 2001-2007.

On 9/11, a Muslim doctor was fired after it was found that he was pointing at the twin towers on TV and openly celebrating.  This was at the hospital and in front of patients.

The movie preview commercials are also crazy. 

I understand gay couples.  I understand mixed race couples.  Heck, in this world there are mixed sex, same race couples (SHOCKER!)

Every single couple was mixed race.  Not kidding, every one. It got to the point that it was comical.

BTW, white guy here that the makers of movies and those commercials would say I am racist for observing the pattern.

Lots of folks employed, its true.  How much that's due to his Trumpness versus persistently low energy prices is quite debatable.  What isn't debatable is most of the wealth generated is staying in very few hands, not a lot of it is percolating down.

I do not talk to many people about wealth.  Part of it is due to the fact that I am not a social butterfly, part is due to the fact that we have some money saved and I do not brag.  My wife is frugal. I used to be before I became a pilot (I still spend less than I could).

One set of grandparents had a paid for farm. 

My other grandparents had a few hundred thousand in the bank.  He worked a union job and grandma was a stay at home mom. They saved like crazy.

We come from savers.  That being said, most of our family spend like crazy. 

If you spend everything you bring in, you will never have any money or be wealthy. 

Pointing out that some people are wealthy and other are not is a cop out.

Apparently, you can still 'like' a post even after thread lock, so I did.

They want to know who to keep an eye on.

Adam Sandler is (or at least was) a Republican. 

I enjoy his movies.   Very sexualized, but funny as hell.

I enjoy watching some of his SNL skits. The Hanukkah song is awesome.
