The obvious answer was a gift card to the Dollar Store
I’m sure he needed the cash for gas. I hardly carry cash, usually just use my debit card. I had $30 that has probably been in my wallet for six months, I gave that, and husseled the wife for another &40, that was all the cash she was carrying.
We were in CHIEF Jr.’s truck, we had to go pick up some tables and chairs for the birthday party. Mrs. CHIEF brought up that we should have checked the console, he always has cash in there. Sure enough, she opened it up and there was $200 sitting right there. I would have given him that as well if I would have thought to check it. I don’t mind at all helping a guy that works a sixty hour week to try and take care of his family.

My niece's son's second birthday is tomorrow. We have a Dollar General right outside our front gate, Mrs. CHIEF decided to go there to get wrapping paper, some dishwasher pods, and a few other odds and ends that weren't worth driving all the way into town for. Saw a young guy drive up in a worn out ol' Chevy. He got out and stood at the front of his truck for a minute. Eventually, he came over to my window. I rolled the window down, and he told me, "sir, I am in a pickle. I've been framing houses and don't get paid until Friday. The weather is going to be bad, and I need to get home to Alvarado to wrap pipes and make sure my family is ready for the cold weather. I have a new ladder I paid $100 for (it was still in the box and he had the receipt) I will sell it to you for $60."
If there is anything I am an expert on Surly about (other thread) it is being a sucker. I gave him $60, and told him to keep the ladder. I guess I consider myself embarrassingly gullible. I don't know if I have "Sucker" tattooed in invisible ink across my forehead, but it always seems as though I am the person that people, in need, approach.

Mrs. CHIEF's boss has been taking classes on motivational techniques, cutting costs, and business efficiency. He decided to have a mandatory meeting, in Houston, scheduled for this Tuesday. He, of course, scheduled it about three weeks ago. In his newfound exuberance, he has decided not to cancel it.
Mrs. CHIEF, in her passive aggressive manner, decided she wasn't driving, along with my niece that works for the company. Instead, they would fly roundtrip from DFW into Hobby and back. So, she is spending over $1000 to go to Houston for a one hour meeting on motivation, cutting costs, and business efficiency. She is booking a five star hotel for the one night as well, in the middle of a snowstorm that could knock power out.

The second worst hit ever put on Tech. The hit Nathan Vasher put on Carlos Francis, on that punt return is the most vicious hit I've seen in real life. That includes Blain Irby. That hit wasn't extremely violent, you just knew the result in about the remaining 0.20/second of the catch. I was heartbroken for him.

Seriously, though....the best part of that pic was the Hanson brothers on the right. They were AWESOME. Two Canuck jerseys and a Bruins jacket, all black, and they surely thought they were real ladies' men.
They had to go out of their way to find such poorly fitting outfits.

I read a long time ago that somewhere around 92 cents out of every dollar donated to the Red Cross never leaves the organization due to inefficiency and bloat.
Sounds about right. Their president was paid over $800k for the year according to this: https://paddockpost.com/2024/03/24/executive-compensation-at-the-american-red-cross-2022/ and they have quite a few other executives making over $500k.
I've heard the same about March of Dimes, American (body part/disease) Societies having the same issue.

Google their past records on previous disasters. Very inefficient, corrupt, etc.
My granddad hated them. Said they had a monopoly on coffee and cigarettes during WWII, and charged out the ass for both.

sweet, as the earth cooled did the house fall in?
just googled the entire Lake Whitney shoreline and couldn't find that house
It's on the eastern shore of Lake Whitney, in White Bluff, north end of the subdivision. You can see the cliff front sticking up out of the water on Google Earth, and that house about 30 feet from the new cliff face.

I love close games. Mrs. CHIEF will have the house so clean I can lick the waterline on the toilet. Floors are mopped, carpets vacuumed, dishes put up, stainless steel all polished.

Since we don’t have a “wtf” thread …
Reminds me of a joke my Old Man used to tell about a farmer that bought a high dollar filly to breed with a neighbors high dollar stud. The old farmer had a horny old donkey. The farmer decided he would tie a sheet over the filly to ward off the donkey. The next day he went out to the barn to check on her, and her stall gate was kicked in, and she was gone. So he started knocking on all of his neighbors doors asking if they had seen a horse running around with a sheet tied over it. After several conversations, one other old farmer told him, "I haven't seen a horse with a sheet tied over it, but I saw a really nice looking young filly run by with a cloth napkin hanging out of her twat."

Maybe Quinn should be our OC and fix whatever the fuck Sark is trying t do at times.
Not really this, but I wonder if Sark ever allows Quinn free rein to call plays that work for him other than audibles. OT, today, looked like Sark just said "fuck it" go do what you want, and Quinn did just that. Get rid of the play action, let him use that time to sit back and survey the field. If given enough time, Quinn will make the right choice and put the ball on the money.

In all seriousness, if he picks us, do we really need another DE? That's the one position we're stacked at. I won't complain if he picks us, it's just kind of strange.
It does give us an in with TN, I suppose. Never hurts to raid other states. He's a big boy.
6’5” and 260 lbs. Should be a spin down candidate. We can bitch about Mack Brown till the cows come home, but that fucker won a lot of games utilizing that philosophy. If he could gain 30 lbs. the required strength and keep his athleticism, I would have to think he might be a home run.

On Sunday, I rode in a Bell "Long Ranger" from Key Largo to Miami. Fucking amazing.
I rode in the Long Ranger with the highest time airframe in existence about 40 years ago, from Lake Whitney to its FBO at Addison in Ft. Worth. We hovered over cattle creep feeders on the big ranches to the west of Ft. Worth until bucks as big as yearling calves came scampering out. The doors wouldn’t even latch, the airflow kept them shut. But when we would hover, all bets were off.

Bringing the gang back together... never change
Santucci should just buy a house in B/CS and just rent it out in between his stints of being on the staff. I think he has been run off twice. But like a bad penny, he keeps showing back up, because this time, things will be “different.”

They should really wear bowties, and sing "Buffalo Gal Won't You Come Out Tonight." I'm sure they get all of the "Dames." Pomade guys, for sure, not quite cool enough for Dapper Dan.
