  1. I'm convinced some of you arguing against higher teacher pay have the poors and fear their salaries may outpace yours someday.

    By any standard they're underpaid for a college educated employee with 15+ years of longevity. Like that piece of shit Frank Lorenzo said, "A flight attendant should never make enough money to buy a home". Same applies to teachers I guess.

    Wages have stagnated so long in this country you don't even know what your supposed to be paid.

  2. We moved to Comal ISD from Houston two years ago and actually felt like we were undertaxed compared to Houston for school funding. The new superintendent here warned of a budget problem next year. We could raise taxes, but the bulk of that would be shipped elsewhere because of Robin hood and we're a "wealthy" district.

  3. Can't give you what I don't have. Every airline employee has had their pension wiped out post 911, but public sector employees are delicate flowers that need their promises kept. Learn to shove money under the mattress for your old age like everyone else.

  4. Pete Rose is the Dave Kingman of slap hitters.
    Punch n judy asshole with a bad haircut. May as well played his whole career in the Japanese league.
  5. Related window question. I got a few double paned windows that have lost their seal and fog up in the summer.  Is there a remedy besides replacing the window?
    This should absolutely be covered in the warranty. Each window has a unique number on it. Take a picture, call them up and it should be replaced free of charge.
  6. I know it's required by the Constitution and all, but just pay the Googles to do it. They've got the goods on every human on the planet. They could crank out the data in a weekend anyway you like.

  7. New pool owner, but got a smart degree from UT.  While buying some acid at Leslie's (sure wish home depot would sell that too) had the guy tell me I should start buying shock, and not straight chlorine anymore because it's more effective.  I looked at him and said "huh?"
     
    Then he tried to sell me a $80 bottle of algaecide to drop my phosphates.  I asked, "if my chlorine is killing the bugs and greenies, why should I care what my phosphates are?"
    He could only mumble and mutter a reply.
    I hate that racket. Yes phosphates are food for algae, but if you're diligent with your chlorine and have no algae who gives a shit.
