  1. Same wonderful man also said this: "the Government has to defend itself" and "to the enemies of the people it owes only death"
  2. So, while our fascist elements within our state and federal government are restricting women's access to health care, you are simultaneously suggesting we inform women they need to have more kids at a younger age, but not be whores and have them out of wedlock. And don't do the crime (sex) if they can't do the time (raising kids) because we want to associate child-rearing with punitive responsibilities. It never ceases to amaze me how much people want to dic(k)tate the lives of others.
  3. I have heard this too many times recently in the spring only to underwhelm in the season.
  4. Because they are low-conscientious cult members. They latched on to the Cult of Trump and they are along for the ride wherever it goes. If he told them to drink Trump's piss, they would. Admitting they were conned is worse than death/imprisonment.
  5. Not enough. We need to triple that.
  6. I know it might be fun to laugh at them but they need to stop giving these people air time and start calling into question their actions. Investigate their funding as well.
  7. This is getting Andrew Tateish.
  8. I believe San Antonio did this as well years back. Dallas went a different route, they wanted to create the Marvin-Nichols dam to offset their leaks.
  9. I mean from the otherside. A couple of times I had to have a chat with a kid and a parent, and gave the kid permission and some help on how to settle things.
  10. I’ll never understand why parents don’t get more involved.
  11. My first car was the 79 Sports Coupe with the wet turbo. Had 84 T-type and 85 GN and 2 87 GNs. I still miss them.
  12. Often times aquifers are located deeper and are not in contact with the surface where it is being tapped into and the zone of recharge may be hundreds to 1000s of miles away. Also the reason people like to tap into those waters is because they have been naturally filtered or filling those formations for quite some time (thousands of years). The water that seeps into the ground or near surface ground water can be fine in areas, but it may also be contaminated by human activities such as underground gas tank leakage. If I recall in parts of West Texas there were several feet of fuel floating on the water table due to leakage. Porosity (pore spaces) and permeability (a function of the connectivity of those pore spaces, cracks, and rock matrix and the rate at which fluid can move in the media ) are other controlling factors and while I am happy to chat about hydrology a bit and go in more depth if you are interested I suspect that many will not be. But in short, just trying to pump water back in the the subsurface will not re-inflate the land or restore the ground level to its previous height. There is really no economically feasible way of doing that once we start groundwater mining.
  13. It only matters if they are willing to do something. It will mostly be rhetoric and appeasement.
  14. Oh my sweet summer child. He is far too egotistical to think that he is the problem. You might as well explain a Taylor series to a plant.
  15. I am probably biased from stories about water shortages in California and their plans to counter it (link) images like this being burned into my brain regarding agricultural water use and its observable impact on the environment.
  16. Is this the real problem or is this like complaining about people watering their yards during a drought, while our agriculture grows inefficient crops to ship overseas?
  17. Yeah, I think he is just impotent. And hates women for it.
  18. @Brisketexan OK, we missed out on the Trump Bibles, but I have other horrible ideas. Cyber Pet Rocks. It is like a pet rock, but with wireless technology that connects you to the earth without the dirt. Alternative plan, we get those little plastic/glass jewels from the dollar store, and repackage that has Cyber Soil: become a master of tech and terraform your kingdom with your favorite color.

  19. Rogers is really threatening the “there is no dumb like baseball dumb” addage.
  20. Have you ever felt the need to dip on a plane?
