  1. I wonder if insurance companies would be able to subrogate against Ercot ? I am not knowledgeable on Texas law.
  2. So is it just Natural Gas that’s being sold and is unregulated ?
  3. Capacity payments as in they aren’t paid to hold shit for emergencies so they sell everything they can when they can?
  4. I agree with that. It’s funny that 0-20 I was a democrat and 20-38 republican and now I am 2 years being more left leaning. I won’t call it hate but the intolerance of Republican leadership and is the most troubling thing for me since they claim to be Christians but want to deny healthcare and other basic shit that a good human should want for fellow man.
  5. Can you explain what you mean by not having a capacity element? Also, the no winterizing requirement is fucking stupid and I don’t understand why a company wouldn’t do that. It’s a small chance but major problem. Just a complete lack of ethics and sense to me.
  6. The answer to that should go to fucking jail.
  7. Do they not like forecast or some shit for demand? I mean if a goddamn T Mobile call center can forecast call volume to staff properly you would think an energy company would. Cell phones really are serious business.
  8. I would say LOL but it isn’t funny at all. Shit like this is why I have started leaning more left the last 2 years and I hate saying that. Jk not really but kind of
  9. Can someone summarize to an outsider what exactly has happened with your power shit? Pretend I am a dumbass when you explain it ( I know this will be hard to pretend but try)
  10. Not a Texan and really don’t understand what’s going on right now so I will ask... I saw a link but didn’t read it yet but is Texas selling power and shit to other areas thus straining the shit they have for their own people?
  11. After hearing David Goggins talk I ordered his book Can’t Break Me and now I will be signing up for a marathon in October or November. I need to push myself and stop being comfortable with where I am.
  12. Thanks buddy and I appreciate it. I like this thread for a lot of reasons and it helps me for more than just alcohol. To me the principles in that book can be applied to everything in life and I use some of the stories y’all tell as motivation for a lot of things.
  13. You nailed the habit vs need thing. I find myelf drinking 12 waters on Saturday now than a 12 pack. Weird huh? Happy for you and good luck
  14. I am one of those people that can drink 10 beers and wake up in the morning a little foggy but go out and run a 1:32 half marathon and finish top 3 in my age group. I decided to take some time off of alcohol with the birth of my first son ( he is 32 days old and I am 37 days sober) and I can tell a difference in running. I have really been thinking hard about starting ultra marathons and that would help keep me accountable. I don’t miss alcohol and have had a sober Super Bowl, 40th birthday and now a Daytona 500 and it’s been over 20 years since I could say yes to any of those 3 let alone all 3. I might drink a beer next week but then again I might not but it has definitely been good to re charge the batteries and self reflect for awhile.
  15. I really wanted to see his fucking teeth in the floor.
  16. Springer needs to take over at point and sit Vescovi. Also, score with 8 minutes remaining.
  17. Am I allowed to not like AOC or Trump or Cruz or do I have to pick a side?
  18. No Against The Wind? Love the lyrics and piano.
  19. I am retarded because I cannot figure this out yet I am jealous. Well done.
  20. First and we had another just now pushing him in his stroller. It rained this afternoon and after it was sunny so we all went for a walk. As we were on the sidewalk there are obvious wet spots and she immediately panics and says don’t roll him through that it is oil. I said so you are telling me the 6 yards that slope all have oil on their sidewalk and not water ? Wtf Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Loved the documentary they did on that place.
  22. Wife had a baby 11 days ago and is still having some minor girl shit going on. She calls the doctor in a panic today and the answering service says they will have the doctor call her back. You would think she would keep the phone by her and the ringer on. You would think anyways.
  23. They brought a body to a car fight. Fuck em
  24. I really wish I could do something for you. Very sorry to hear the news.
  25. 14 days of no alcohol and 8 days being a first time dad and loving it. I love drinking beer but there is better stuff for me to do now. I might drink again in a few months but then again I might not. I made a joke that actually made me start wondering when I told someone I was afraid I won’t like alcohol anymore. I think there might be some truth in that.
