  1. Giddings didn’t have anything like a WB when I lived there in the late 1960s. Didn’t have a ballroom either. That was before their short lived oil boom. Sheriff Bubba Rost would’ve run the delinquents out of Lee County anyway.
  2. Maybe not so trivial….. the continuing saga I posted about weeks ago: In late January some asshole broke the main access lock on our neighborhood USPS communal mailbox. As a result, we and 24 other neighbors have had to drive 11 miles one way from our street over to our USPS office substation to pick up our mail. I believe most of us make that 22 mile round trip at least once per week. Nine months later, after numerous inquiries, the postal service clerks say that the new lock to replace the broken one is still on back order. Since the IRS allows a 70 cent deduction per mile for vehicle business milage, that expense for the 35 trips (770 miles total) I have personally made to pick up our mail. That comes to $539 worth of income tax deductions. Not to mention the 26 total hours of travel time there & back over the 9 months @ 45 minutes per round trip. Now multiply those numbers by roughly 20 to estimate the total time lost, miles driven, gasoline burned, and $10,000+ in IRS deductions. All because the USPS cannot get a simple cheapass lock from wherever it was back ordered. What a country, what a government.
  3. Jfc - Trump is tone deaf ignorant and apparently has Putin’s dick permanently imbedded in his mouth.
  4. Finishing a W.E.B. Griffin series….
  5. A retired Vegas local I know posted his 2 night comp report at Ellis Island on another board. Thought you high rollers might like to see how a “little guy” rolls on the cheap in Vegas. He says he’s a retired helicopter pilot and has lived there for about 10+ years…..
  6. Damn Chinese TikTokers.
  7. ^^^^ Altogether $104 less than the other with the Magpul stock.
  8. That one I linked doesn’t have the BX- trigger module upgrade, but it can be bought separately a lot cheaper than that $500+ 10/22. $68.95 here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/262230851042
  9. Geeze…. $500+ for a 10/22? The plain jane will do just as well for yard critters if noise isn’t a problem: If it is, then this one will take a can … https://grabagun.com/firearms/rifles/semi-automatic-rifles/ruger-10-22-carb-bl-syn-flash-suppressor.html
  10. Fat fingers ftw.
  11. During my UT days I used to get $5 for a pint at the blood bank on Friday, buy a .99 cent glass jug of Coke and $3.99 for a fifth of Four Roses. Made for a good weekend.
  12. 38 - 6 bitches.
  13. I do not need to be reminded where I live.
