  1. Remember last summer when all the talk was that Russia was running out of missiles? And then last night they launched 67 more. .
  2. "If that town was a woman, you could quit buying her drinks now"
  3. Not really. Pretty slow day. Check back in tomorrow maybe.
  4. It's 11 paragraphs. It literally takes as long as reading one page of a Surly thread.
  5. 78750 - Got another 1.98" last night. Brings it to 4.40" in the last week. Niiiiccceeee.
  6. They crashed their tanks doing 28. I say let them mobiks roll.
  7. Shot high. Sitting at 2.12" right now but apparently there is a little more to come before noon today.
  8. You are severely under-representing the drug and alcohol addicted Information Technology community that resides here, sir.
  9. Be careful where you post this. You might end up with a bunch of 3 star recruits wearing aggie shit with their hands out show up.
  10. Call your shots. I live near 2222/360 and I guess the gauge on 360 will get 3.5" between now and Monday noon. Also, this event seems big enough that @phdhorn should be here.
  11. It's not like there is going to be some sort of official announcement, but I think we can safely say that the counteroffensive has begun, right?
  12. Maybe he just wants to be able to beat the fuck out of women and not get in trouble for it?
  13. Precip amounts for this weekend seem to be on the rise for Austin. Seeing 3.11" in NW Austin for Saturday.
  14. So should all negotiated contract be able to simply be voided at your pleasure, or just this one in particular.
  15. So you’re good with just simply reneging on the deal that was negotiated and codified decades ago, before the dams were first built, and just fucking over all of the families that were\are doing nothing more than what was promised them? Just simply cut them off and offer no reimbursement or payment for their generations of work? Seriously, if you don’t like the deal that was previously made, renegotiate it and make sure everyone is compensated appropriately. It’s no different than any other contract. You can’t just decide “fuck ‘em” and stop the deal.
  16. Yeah…those folks that were there making a living and promised water long before you decided to go wakeboarding on lake Travis. If you want to take away what they were promised and afforded to them, you should pay them out on the lost wages of their livelihood and I am sure they will gladly retire.
  17. There is already a downstream project in the works. They fucked up the design and thought it was complete 18 moths ago but realized it leaked so they had to basically start over. I think they believe it will be ready within the year now, but even once it is complete it will still need to be filled. It is a 90k acre foot reservoir that is designed to collect excess rain that flows out of Austin or below Austin. It is basically held in reserve to be used to provide water to the rice farmers downstream and holding back more upstream for use in Austin. it wouldn’t do much good now obviously because the current drought is so long that it would have been depleted, but it will be good in the future.
  18. He's had ten months to take the city and has failed, but was planning to have it completely taken in the next 5 days if he would have just received ammo? Riiiiggghhhtttt.... If I am Shogiu. I would send a pile of ammo so large that he couldn't deny it. Then on May 10th publicly ask why he failed at taking the city he promised to take.
