  1. Biscuits and venison sausage gravy to fortify for the day.
  2. Come on down bill belicheck. lol.
  3. So no interference on that?
  4. Wife you got back from HEB, said it was a mess with lines down the aisles. No propane tanks to be found without driving out to Spicewood. I have a tank and probably a half on hand, so not really worried about it.
  5. Depends what kind of BFP. This is what mine basically looks like, without the two PVC drains. Basically just shut off the main feed, open all the test ports (1/4 turn) and turn the valves on the BFP 1/4 turn as well.
  6. If you have a backflow preventer installed on your sprinkler system, be sure to cut the water feed, drain the BFP, and cycle the valves. Last part may not be necessary, but I run a quick cycle of 1m at each zone just to cycle after the water is off and with the drain valves open.
  7. This is some shitty legal reasoning, at least based on the relevant legal frameworks. I am not sure it is worthing debating, cause in reality what you are arguing is not a legal basis, and we both know that the legal basis is irrelevant. I don't think that the WPR covers this action, but the reality is that it doesn't matter. Congress has effectively abdicated their responsibility wrt basically any and all military actions, so it is what it is, and it is not going to change. More importantly in terms of the longer run implications are the optics and American credibility. Not sure that they play in our favor, but let's see what happens and how history judges it. Our track record in the region is great.
  8. We might need a freezemageddon menu thread.
  9. Interesting there is not more interest in this on the sub. Maybe a gif to get things going.
  10. And a reminder to turn off the water heater too. You dont want the burner running on an empty tank. #teamturnoffatthestreet
  11. That shit would blow around and get all over my garage and plug up gutters. I had two of them in the front, took one down and let the icepacolypse take care of the other. Didn't even have to use my AK.
  12. Icepacolypse took mine out. I hated that fucking tree and the little piece of shit leaves it dropped everywhere.
  13. Yes sir. What is the magic on top?
  14. Looks kinda like AOC in the face in that pic, but without the teets.
  15. I mean, I guess if I was a dean speaking to my dean's council or a president speaking to his board of trustees, I would probably use a line like "ideas are paramount", but the reality is that critical thinking and analysis of information is a skill that many universities are simply failing to instill in their students. https://www.wsj.com/articles/exclusive-test-data-many-colleges-fail-to-improve-critical-thinking-skills-1496686662 Freshmen and seniors at about 200 colleges across the U.S. take a little-known test every year to measure how much better they get at learning to think. The results are discouraging. At more than half of schools, at least a third of seniors were unable to make a cohesive argument, assess the quality of evidence in a document or interpret data in a table, The Wall Street Journal found after reviewing the latest results from dozens of public colleges and universities that gave the exam between 2013 and 2016.
