  1. But you can’t have your cake and eat it too. If Roach’s hit was targeting and ejectionable, the same situation applies to the CJ hit. The inconsistency in application is so damn frustrating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. No idea how much of SA’s exports are refined products; however I would assume it’s a big percentage. If you’re trying to cripple their economy for at least a few months it makes sense to target the bottleneck in getting products out, as opposed to pump jacks which will be more spread out. Rebuilding a refinery is going to be much more complicated than hitting the actual production facilities inmo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. CXO: Christ.... that wasn’t that bad of a miss. They’re now trading at $17,500ish an acre. Thought they’d be the last Permian domino to fall, but with today’s movement you’d think they’d have a huge buyout bullseye on their chest. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Heading up to Pagosa Springs for a week with the family. I think I'm going to have a few days that I can sneak away and wet a line. Any recs for a guide? I know next to nothing about freshwater fly fishing, but would like to try it out. I have a 5wt rod/reel I can most likely use, but don't have any other gear. Thanks in advance.
  5. Backyard in Midland. 4 kids and 2 dogs. Dispatched quickly. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. Go to George's in Alys. It's great.
  7. I see majors taking a run at the Permian focused Independents. CVX bought Anadarko because of their Delaware basin holdings, much of which sits over CVX owned minerals. XOM will make a move in the next year, with prime candidates being PXD, Concho, FANG, or Endeavor. As a Midlander, consolidation is going to be really weird. It’ll be interesting what type of presence in West Texas the majors/large independents maintain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I’ve heard health concerns for Dove. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. Sounds like a great event! Thanks for your time and involvement! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Thanks for the post. All of it, but especially this part. I think the greatest gift Ben has given us so far is that we truly appreciate all the little things he learns and the new skills he picks up; stuff we took for granted with the first three kiddos. Little man has figured out how to give kisses, and I will say there is literally nothing better right now than when he plants a big one on me. This happened the other day: I had all the kids at home on a Saturday while my wife was out running some errands and getting out of the house by herself for a bit. I left Ben in his room to play and it got really quiet. I went to check on him and saw this: His big brother had gone into the room and was reading him a book. Normally, big bro doesn’t have a lot to do with the little guy. I can’t tell you how proud I was at that moment of my kids. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I saw that the other day. What a cool moment!!! “I got this!” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. He’s outgrown those, but they are highly recommended for anyone who has kids 9 months and under. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Thought I’d throw out an update for those who are interested: Ben’s now a little over 19 months. He. Is. A. Bad. Ass. He’s been attending a Mother’s Day Out program at a local church, and the ladies that manage the room love him. Unfortunately, he’s very susceptible to respiratory infections and has been through the RSV crap a few times. We’ve been pretty lucky so far with only one hospitalization over the last year. We’ve had to put him on oxygen at home at night probably 4 times over the last year (about a week on O2 for each instance). It’s a hell of a process, and usually involves duct tape so he can’t pull the nasal cannula out while he’s sleeping. The main reason for the tape is to keep him from bending his arms so he can’t reach his face. Very thankful for the NICU nurse that gave us the pro tip. The coolest thing is that Ben is now starting to sign a bunch. He’s got a few of them down pat, which is awesome. He’s also starting to talk a little bit. Last week I got in the car to go to lunch with my wife and Ben, who was in the back seat. I got in and totally got an excited “DADDA!” Unfortunately, my wife was chopping onions in the car for some damn reason... Ben’s still doing physical therapy every week. He isn’t crawling or walking yet, but damn if the kid can’t butt scoot around with the best of them. He’s also doing a great job of feeding himself and is doing great with his cup and drinking. So far we’ve continued to be very blessed with his health, with no significant health issues. I am continually amazed by the kindness of strangers we run into. Ben waves at just about everyone who makes eye contact, and it’s amazing how many people wave back and stop and coo at him. So, still a lot to figure out in the long run, but things are going fantastically well, and I’m so proud of our little guy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. As a former Spur, I’m loving how involved Bevo is. As someone who manages risk on a daily basis, this is terrifyingly awesome. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  16. That one was terrible, I agree. But he’s left on an island more than anyone else on our team, and does a decent job of knowing when he’s beat and when to commit the penalty. He also knocked a ball away from #5 that was a sure TD. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Boyd was flagged a bunch, but IMHO those were saved touchdowns and we’ll earned. Rather take the 15 and live to fight another day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I have the A400 in 20 ga. It's a great gun and I've had no issues with it at all. Great little dove gun.
  19. As a parent of someone with Trisomy 21, fuck you for implying my son would be associated with aggy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. As a follow up to my post about an antelope gun, I ended up getting a Remington 700 in 6.5 Creedmore and threw a Nightforce SHV 4-14 50mm on it. Sighted it in and was able to hit a 12" plate at 700m 3/3 times. Was only 1/4 at 1000m. Ended up taking my antelope at 435m. It's a shooter! Thanks for the recommendations.
  21. Thanks for all the info. I really like the Excursion, it's fun to mess with. That being said, I don't have time to do the work myself, and would just hire it out. The other option would be to drive the F250 up to OK and get this dude to go to work on it: http://www.customautosbytim.com/index.html
  22. Antelope. Any thoughts on Weatherby's? Specifically the Mark V Arroyo series. Still well made?
  23. I like that platform, I think it might be a bit heavy for crawling around NM. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Thanks for the response. Are head studs necessary if it’s not going to be chipped? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Thanks for the replies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
