  1. That's me. We have people that have people. We just always ending up writing big checks.
  2. That makes a lot of sense.
  3. The problem is that you can't often strike effective/enforceable deals with the drug cartels. Allegedly, of course.
  4. Brother? I have two pork butts in my deep freezer that were supposed to become tamales. maybe they still will.
  5. I haven't looked at docket sheets lately, but I think the the lawyers sitting beside Nate Paul also sit beside Alex Jones. Crazy.
  6. Thanks for the thoughtful post. I follow politics some, and pretty much knew that the Paxton and Nate Paul deal (I've always been suspicious of Nate Paul) was an unholy alliance.
  7. Winning a trial is a lot of hard work, and sometimes a crap shoot depending upon evidentiary rulings. That's why pleas/settlements happen something like 95% of the time.
  8. Amen and amen.
  9. Thanks for the middle finger, fudge. I know that rational conversation is difficult these days, but I am trying to do so. CR doesn't look like the place to talk rationally.
  10. As one of the few "out" R's on this forum, I totally agree. Paxton and Paul are toxic. Something bad is going down soon, I think.
  11. Again, I have no special knowledge of this situation, but it seems like a pretty cut and dried breach of contract claim between the buyer and seller, with the State on the hook for all of the damages because of it's interference with the contract.
  12. I can imagine a pretty spendy lost profits claim from the developer. 25 year build-out. High-end private homes on the water, multiple hotels, condos, retail, mixed use, maybe a casino? Don't know the details, but it seems like the state f--ed up in letting it go this far down the road before taking appropriate action.
  13. I'd be a bit careful of encouraging folks to cancel subscriptions, Imma. Just saying! I'm down to Surly, Amazon Prime, and WSJ subscriptions these days.
  14. OK, but my Spidey sense is that there may be another shoe about to drop. The R's may be trying to get out ahead of it. No special knowledge other than age informed by experience.
  15. I have no special knowledge, but I think that there is, as Paul Harvey always said -- the rest of the story, that is yet to come. Where did Nate Paul's money come from? What is the truth about all of the Collin County litigation that he kept bottled up? Why the hell hasn't his wife divorced him yet? I don't expect that the answers to the above and whatever else that comes out will be positive for the AG.
  16. Hey, Sip! That wool isn't gonna judge itself! Whoop!
  17. We have threads where folks are wondering if they drink too much -- that seems very likely around here. BBQ too much -- that seems highly unlikely anywhere.
  18. Pos rep for your drink of choice and all the work that you do on this thread!
  19. Wasn't gonna go there, but thank you.

    I need to try Julie's. We have relatives out that way and are always trying to find new places.

    Jardin Corona in downtown Marble Falls is fair to acceptable lately. P.S. None of the restaurants have enough employees lately, though.
  22. Old news? Teacher Retirement System Site Sells in Downtown Austin’s Innovation District https://austin.towers.net/teacher-retirement-system-site-sells-in-downtown-austins-innovation-district/?pro=caitlyn@towers.net
  23. I didn't support him in the primary, but I also wasn't going to vote for some flunky former ACLU staffer in the general election.
