Oh, I'd love to see the whole book. Maybe some other creep wrote him a birthday haiku:
"Raw-dogging young girls
That thing we both love to do
Happy birthday, you!"

Sure enough his wife comes up and starts a conversation. In the middle of it she brings up the subject of our alleged golf game a few weeks earlier. Like a good soldier, I tell her "Yep, we were golfing together. And oh yeah, Steve... you still owe me $100 for that ass kicking I put on you that round." Made him fork it over right there in front of her.
This move is Surly....

Im so sick of this shit.
You think YOU'RE sick of this shit? Why don't you feel sorry for all of those cancer cells in you, who are presently getting their ASSES kicked by chemo and shit? Man, selfish much?
Seriously, sorry you're stuck there, and that you're probably not even in the mood to make things awkward for any female medical staff.

The source is the usgs website. Location accuracy is +/- 5 sec, so +/- 480 ft. Elevation accuracy is +/- 0.05 ft.
And another interesting little artifact: when referring to these devices, the USGS usually spells it "gage." Which is correct, it's just an odd thing.

Right, but you did it while you were still at Pancho's, you didn't bring that unexploded ordnance back to home base.
That's not entirely correct. I recall one specific Pancho's trip in college. There were 5 of us. Our house had 4 shitters. 4 of us had called dibs on a specific shitter before we reached home. One dude was the odd-man out, doing the "trying not to shit my pants" dance outside as he waited for a shitter to open up. So, we ALL made it home before we did the damage. But one guy suffered more than the rest.
Such is the nature of Pancho's. Pancho's can teach you some real life-lessons.

Not buying that. They found ordnance on Thursday with the capability for serious damage, and they took it back to "base" with them, rather than detonate in place?
Still have my money on a training accident.
This. Why would you bring back risky uxo 1) back to a building, 2) around multiple people? You dispose of it in-place, or you transport in a secure transport, then one person handles it (at least, that would be my expectation. Then again, I've never served on a bomb squad. I've blown up a toilet or two in my day, though).

So this is a CSB but I once worked for a software company that was later bought out. This one girl got the choicest territories for sales.
At the Christmas party, she was blowing the married VP of Sales in his car. He wrecked it in the parking garage. Lots of people witnessed this. I missed all the fireworks having left about 20 mins earlier.
The next fucking day everyone was gossiping about what had happened, eventually they called a meeting with just us sales folk and told us to refrain from gossiping about it. someone not so jokingly said because neither the VP or his blow job giver were in the meeting: hey I been wondering why I get shit territories to call on and that woman gets the best hours and the best territories. Dead silence and a lot of glares from management in the room.
A few days later our company merged and many people in our department were let go including the guy that spoke up and the rest of us who were given the weakest territories in the company to call on.
But not the blowjobber though or the VP. And btw most of the people who knew about their affair and looked the other way kept their jobs, funny how that works. She and her buddies got the best territories and reaped all the benefits. I was new to the company, didn’t know shit about their affair, my dad had just died, good times and I got $5000 severance though.
cool story Nicole.
so yeah, my sympathy and empathy is not with the Dumbotran couple. Cuz I wonder how many people got literally screwed over at work while they been doing their affair thing.
Off soapbox…
Man.....that is a LOT of words for Nicole to be telling us that she really regrets not blowing the married VP of Sales herself.

My wife and I were chuckling about this. And goddamn, the hubris.
We said imagine if one of us was having an affair. Then, we take our affair partner out to dinner at a big public restaurant in downtown Austin. Or we go to a UT football game together. And we're not just together, we've got our arms wrapped around each other. Dude. We are GOING to be seen by someone we know. It's inevitable, we're playing with fire.
Going to a concert with 10s of thousands of people there. SOMEBODY was going to spot y'all all over each other. This was a whole lotta "we're big shit, so consequences don't happen to us" going on.

I’m a bit ignorant on the term 100 year flood or 500 year flood. How is that calculated? Because at least twice in the last 100 years camp mystic has had cabins lost to floods, another time cars got washed away and the camp was badly damaged, another time the guy’s pregnant wife had to be airlifted out.
So clearly these aren’t 100 or 500 year events if they’re happening that often.
Severe flood frequency is one of the elements of flood prediction and planning that's taken a huge punch in recent years.
Now, those terms aren't really scheduling terms, they reflect the likelihood of such a flood event happening in a given year. So, the short term way of looking at a 100 year flood is that it's a flood that has a 1% chance of happening in any given year, not that you'll only get one such flood every 100 years. But, even then....the prediction of frequency is often way off in recent years.
And every meteorologist and planner knows why. We can't talk about it, or even include discussions of it in government planning documents now, because Cloak Room, but trust me....engineers who matter DGAF about Cloak Room issues. They go where the data is taking them when it comes to planning. It takes a good bit of time to catch up, of course. And development and construction that has already happened is there, and isn't going away. But yes, these catastrophic-level events are happening more frequently, and to greater extremes. And our infrastructure and planning is not caught up to the threat, and we seem to be doing all we can socially and politically to ensure that they do not do so.

I wish we would stop referring to cabins in the 100 year floodzone. Yes, some indeed were in the 100 year flood zone but the lowest ones were in the floodway. There is a difference.
Let me show you a non-Mystic example or two...
Here is Buffalo Bayou in Houston close to BW8/T&C and as you go into the villages... the flood zone is light blue. You build/live there, you need insurance and assume there is a risk because you are in the 100 year flood plain. The green is the 500 year flood plain. Lower risk, no flood insurance required. The dark blue... yeah, that shit is flooding. When we flooded with Harvey, our neighborhood had a house built around 1958 in the floodway. That house got wrecked. You do not build in the floodway. THAT is where Mystic had cabins full of little girls.
Now here's Meyerland. Damn they won't stop rebuilding houses in the flood zone... you've probably seen the crazy ass lifted homes on Braeswood before. Flood zone. Yeah, I think they're kind of dumb. Meyerland farts and it floods. BUT they're not in the floodway. That's insane. That's where Mystic knowingly maintaned cabins.
Now, back to the Mystic map...
A or light blue is the flood zone... like the people who lift their houses in Meyerland. The striped section is floodway, like the dark blue above and where Mystic had the youngest children.
Different view...
Fantastic post and illustrations of the different levels of inundation risk.
48 minutes ago, Captainant said:More people died in this single flood in one night than died in Hurricane Harvey over a week of continuous flooding in the area in Houston you're ID'ing. I don't think the stakes or the risk is as directly comparable as you are asserting here.
That's not the point, see this response:
45 minutes ago, texasdago said:You're not getting it. I'm point out that in Houston or Hunt or Wimberley or anywhere regardless of whether we are talking about flash flood danger a la Gaudalupe or massive rain event a la Harvey, you don't build in the floodway. Take the actual event out of it. You don't build a house next to a fireworks plant and then complain when it blows up. You certainly don't use that house as a summer camp cabin.
Floodway vs. flood plain is really important. And FEMA isn't just pulling this stuff out of its ass. These days, the data is pretty well updated, and they use the HEC-RAS modeling software to show inundation in specific types of events. I've watched animations of it simulating actual floods that occurred, and it is pretty close to spot-on. It's pretty impressive.
Bottom line, today, if FEMA mapping shows you are in the floodway....you probably shouldn't be there.

posted before, but it's nice to point out that O'Reilly is also a sexual predator, just like trump. He cost Fox News millions in payouts. 32 million to one individual woman, and lots more to many others. He famously left a voicemail for a woman where he told her he'd like to get her in the shower, and rub her pussy with a "filafel".
Goddammit people, for the 10,000th time, we don’t kink-shame around here.
Now, for doing that shit non-consensually…shame away. But for the falafel bit…no judging. -

Every one of them is getting a shitty poem and a semi dirty drawing with my signature as pubes or something like that.-

Mo-Ranch has a camp. It's not as bougie as many of the others, and generally the sessions aren't as long. And yeah, it's a "church camp," but it's PCUSA Presbyterian, so pretty low-key. I would suspect they'll be adding sessions/slots in the coming years to make up for the lost availability of other camps in the area.

Changing the formula would have adverse supply chain impacts. A Wharton grad should know that.
WHAT???????? You mean, maybe Coca Cola has long-term supply agreements with corn syrup suppliers like ConAgra, and can't just turn on a dime? And maybe Coca Cola doesn't have the machinery in the US geared towards blending with sugar instead of HFCS? Pshaw, Trump is magic man. He snap fingers, everything happen.

As the man who has volunteered to be the AP Presidential nominee, I do not appreciate your post. Mostly because my "volunteer fee" of $50 million is really important to me.

Okay, let's get serious. That situation might be what prevents a third term.
Oh....my sweet summer child. "Terms" are such a quaint notion. We don't do "terms" anymore. The proper word is "reign." And nothing ends a monarch's reign but his death.

I still enjoy seeing Trump roasted and squirming like a toad.
Whatever. I'm tired of it. It just reminds me that nothing fucking matters. Seriously, imagine the most disgusting, evil, criminal thing you could think of. There could be an hour long video of it happening, airing non-stop on every platform for a week, and the consequences would be.....ZERO. Again, he'd GAIN support if the subject matter is awful enough.

Epstein and Maxwell
in Daily Texan
Posted
Oh, and on the "release the Epstein files" as a whole picture, here's the facts and problems.
1) a NORMAL administration doesn't just "release investigative files." The documents, interviews, etc., were part of a criminal investigation. First, you don't release them while the investigation is ongoing (which is why there were several years when they were never going to be released). Then, even when the criminal investigation is over, they don't release documents that--while they may be embarrassing, or may even provide evidence that someone did something illegal--do NOT rise to the level of supporting an indictment. Not that I'm interested in morally cutting anyone any slack, but let's say there is a detailed log of everyone who ever flew on a plane with Jeffrey Epstein. That alone is NOT proof that every one of those people screwed underage girls, trafficked them, etc. Seriously, it's not a good idea to hang around a creep like Epstein at all, and I question your judgment if you do, but maybe y'all were just flying to go see a football game. He wasn't boning young girls 24/7, so merely having evidence that "person X spent time with Epstein" isn't going to support criminal charges, and the government isn't going to release it just to give the public fodder to say "oh yeah? Joe Schmoe was on Epstein's plane! KIDDIE DIDDLER!"
2) SO....in normal world, IF (big if, by the way) a full and thorough criminal investigation was conducted and everyone who merited being charged with a crime was indeed charged, then you'd know about the relevant evidence as it was introduced in their prosecution, and you would never know about the other evidence and documents that were NOT used in the prosecution. That's not sinister or secretive, it's how it works in ANY criminal matter. Could be a drug dealing prosecution, they aren't going to publish the names of every person in Danny Drug Dealer's phone contacts (FFS, he has the number of a great chinese delivery joint in there, because Danny digs him some kung pao).
3) but this isn't normal world. We had an administration and functionally all of its mouthpieces and functionaries a) actually campaign on "release the files!" and then b) when they took power, they made big shows of "here, I have a big white binder with a totally salacious list that the previous guys didn't want you to ever see - and I'm gonna show it to you!" That is outside of all of the norms and procedures and safeguards discussed in items 1 and 2 above.
4) so, here we are. Abnormal dipshits promised to reveal ALL THE STUFF.....that they now don't want to reveal. Maybe that's because there's no "there" there. Maybe it's because if they reveal it, their guy is going to look really, really bad (along with some other people). Maybe that's because someone grasped items 1 and 2 above, and realized that while there may be a lot of evidence of people who spent time with Epstein, that evidence doesn't rise to the level of supporting any criminal charges of kiddie diddling. But it would sure get tongues wagging. Or maybe it's some combination of all of those things.
What it boils down to is that the admin and its flunkies promised they'd do something, without ANY fucking idea what was actually there and how shit works. And now, they are stuck by their own stupidity.
As to kiddie diddling, I sure as shit don't have any "team." If there's a video of Bill Clinton screwing a 14 year old, prosecute the fuck out of him, I don't care. If there's the same for Trump, do the same. What I suspect is that there's a lot of stuff that's smoke, and would make a lot of powerful people look bad, but the evidence doesn't rise to the level of fire. And now, the idiot dog caught the car, and it turns out the car contains some stuff that will make the dog look bad too. So, what to do? Fuck 'em, they set a standard they can't now follow, and they're getting pilloried for it. Serves 'em right.
Oh, and was there likely, at some point or another, evidence to support greater charges/other prosecutions, but prosecutors engaged in a cover-up to protect some powerful people? I would be 100% unsurprised by that, in fact I would probably bet on it.
