Geico just did the same for us on our 4 cars: $4.1k --> $7.1k. Will be telling them to fuck off today. -
UPS Airlines crash on take off at Louisville Airport.
TwiceHorn replied to Laxtonto's topic in Daily Texan
Hence the Hawaii Air 737s becoming targa tops in flight (lotta pressure cycles). One of the more fascinating things I'll never forget. My senior project sponsor was LTV. We went up there to tour their facility. At the time, they were rebuilding A7s for sale to smaller countries. So they had an A7 airframe/wingless fuselage up on a giant jig, with hydraulic cylinders at the nose and tail and it was fixed around the wing box. The cylinders were pushing the nose and tail up and down relative to the wing box to find the real-world fatigue limits of the airframe. Notable was that the nose and tail were being deflected nearly a foot upward relative to the wing box. You don't think of that kind of deflection in an airframe, but I guess it happens. -
Oh for sure. The ol okie-doke

I'm pretty sure everyone that used Facebook at all a single time during the last 5 days knows it was election day. They were pushing a banner thing. AISD didn't have school yesterday, because election day. Everyone I know and not just online people knew it was election day. You are wrong in almost every sense of being wrong here. Democracy is something everyone in this country knows about and should be proud of. Shut your fucking mouth for once when you are flat out wrong.

I canβt imagine why anyone wouldnβt have taken advantage of a refi when rates were below 3%. Obviously if you only had a few years left, I could see why not.

Thatβs definitely a feature.

In case you were unaware, most cast iron anything is cast in sand. Engine blocks, skillets, you name it. I was shocked to learn in the 80s that it remains, to this day, one of the dominant methods of casting iron and other alloys. And there's a lot of science or technique that goes into it. What kind of sand you use, how often you change it, whether and for how long you tamp the mold before casting to compact the sand, and so on, that provide opportunities for cost-cutting and enshittification. And some other things, like high-clay-content sand can make smoother castings. But the water content of clay molecules means they explode on contact with molten iron or other metals, which sends silica molecules into the atmosphere and creates silicosis problems for casting workers. And once the clay gets burned, like pottery, it goes from a fine colloid in the sand to big burnt clods, making castings rougher when you don't change the sand. Also, one of my lifelong fascinations is the amount of technology (engineering and ingenuity) that goes into manufacturing even a prosaic, no-moving-parts item like a cast-iron skillet.

Government Shutdown 2025: This Time Itβs Personal
Nice Guy Eddie replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Cloak Room
Most scandalous day in the history of presidency. -
According to the tribune, all of the props are easily passing. As of 11:30p last night. The lowest performing one had a 58% yes approval. it should be criminal that props sometimes say one thing but mean so much more.

I think the lesson not to schedule a good OOC opponent isnβt really reflecting in the committeeβs work. That could change with 9 SEC games. Bama is the highest ranked one loss team, and they have arguably the worst loss. But their run against good opponents got rewarded. The committee explained as much. The committee was more than willing to put three two loss teams above multiple one loss teams. They arenβt harshly punishing ND or Texas or Bama for those early season losses. They rewarded the H2H vs OU. The deciding factor was likely the Florida-Kentucky-Miss State games vs Notre Dame. And on the flip side, winning those good early games brings rewards that arenβt being factored into the decision making. On balance, winning probably helps cement your place more than losing dings you. I also think the committee got a lot nerdier on stats that theyβd have at their fingertips.

Extremely pleased and somewhat shocked. I have two boys in CFISD and was seriously considering moving to a different district.

My Experience with the HPE7-A08 Exam
Wally Fairway replied to edwardbreedlove's topic in Business and Markets
Yes, but if a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half; how long does it take a one legged cricket to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle? -
I always note the presence or absence of ag tags. It's notable that a lot of the troglodytes on texags lack the ag tag. Then again, not having an allegiance to a school by attendance/graduation and voluntarily selecting eaTme to root for and texags to do it on tells you most of what you need to know.

Charlie Kirk assassinated at an event in Utah (by a 22 YO groyper)
BurntOrange&White replied to msbesq's topic in Cloak Room
There is a theory that Kirkβs wife and JD will end up married before the 2028 election to set him up better for presidency -
