  1. It would be incredibly easy to pull together a database whereby defense attorneys or the public could document instances of police getting caught fibbing in official statements or testimony. A local cop wikileaks, basically. All of which could he used to impugn any particular cop so documented as being external evidence that goes to a cops credibility. But I don't have the guts to do that - that's a great way to get framed up and have your life ruined.
  2. I think I dug about 8 buckets, but I have a new place to put the dirt I'm moving. Weather turning enough to stay overnight amd work at dusk and again the next morning. Current pile: New ramp. I figure I can make it tailgate high. Shallow side getting there:
  3. I find it helpful to have a deep hole, just in case.
  4. Did you know Townes Van Zandt wrote The Rut in 1968 and it was an unreleased b-side off of Our Mother the Mountain?
  5. Since the property is > 10ac, I told my wife to just declare it a private cemetery and move on. See Health and Safety Code 711.008
  6. I'm about 8 ft deep. Nine on one side. Too hot to dig much this summer. I should be able to put the the next 4 ft of lagging/set in this fall. I've cut the 4x6s and the 4x4s, but not the 2x sides yet. Then downward to 12, and so on. I figure 4-6 ft a year is a good pace
  7. Thanks for the input! I was looking to JD because a dealer is 8 miles down the road. But i think the Ford dealer in town also sells Kawasaki. I'm generally okay with 2WD. If the ranch is so soggy I need 4wd, then I'm probably not up there anyway. My truck is 2wd, and I'd probably park the UTV up at the cabin which is damn jear a quarter mile from the county road. But... if the delra to 4WD is not too much, I'll consider it.
  8. Pondering buying a John deere gator tx. I like that it doesn't go more than 20mph, since I'm sure my kids will drive it fairly often.
  9. it's been hot. Down at the bottom its... sligjky less hot? Anyway, not much progress between the heat and vacations. Some friends: Some unwelcome friends: Some very unwelcome friends: Not sure what kind of snake. I choose to believe coachwhip or rat snake. I put down some foam tape to better seal the top, and realized the two short sides had a bug gap. Ate 2 cans of foam and need more. I think I will drill holes and do foam all across the top.
  10. Is this the thread to discuss the Turnpike Troubadours new album? First two released tracks are alright, but I'm just glad they are back together touring and recording.
  11. Here is a pup abandoned by its mother because of fireworks on the beach, Lincoln City. Did mom ever come back? I don't know. I hear this pup was seen last week turning tricks for bits of Mo's fish & chips in Newport.
  12. The website says 7.2m, one of the signs there says 8.7m, buy according to my watch if you do every spur to see ever waterfall it was like 11.1m.
  13. The cats were very chill. Pacific NW people are way into their pets, but holy hell on every hike that had a "No dogs allowed" area had dogs. Anyway, if i were the cat, I want to watch the birds or the seals. No wonder they looked over it.
  14. Related: Backpacking catpacks Seals These are called "Tidepool Old Man Balls" Devils Punchbowl Drift Creek Falls
  15. Oregon. Banged out Trail of Ten Falls ar Silver Falls SP. Ten waterfalls and several you walk behind.
  16. https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/25/us/big-bend-national-park-deaths/index.html Hiking in BigBend when it is 119? Like, wtf.
  17. My 2018 canyon doesn't but I know Ridgelines do. What about new Rangers or Tacos?
  18. What trucks have rear ac vents for the kiddos in the backseat?
  19. Up until 4th grade it's usually 7v7, but > they play a full field 10v10 (goalie, 3 defense, 3 mid, 3 attack). But re: today's practice, looks like Thor lightning detector is going off, so my flakiness doesn't count.
  20. My boy had summer 7v7 lax,l practice, but he said he wasn't feeling well, so we are skipping it. Pads and helmet in this weather? Pass.
  21. I got dime size (near Spicewood Springs), but just up the way off Anderson Mill they got that artillery. https://twitter.com/jenniferlowry13/status/1669902034005372928?s=20
  22. I'll hit 80 at age 53 with ERS in 9 years. Folks hired after 9/1/22 don't get the plan at all (not even with the pre-60 penalty). I'm very worried about recruiting. But enough about hypothetical people. How has retirement been without COLA increases? That's what I worry most about. I wish ERS offered an inflation adjusted option. I don't have a good feel on how much to save to basically provide my own inflation kicker.
  23. Huh. Every dude I know that wanted 50-50 got it. Women want their ex to have partial custody - that's how they have time to date! What I see is dudes not willing to do kid errands (endless practices, birthday crap, etc) or fun stuff, and then wonder why their kids would rather be at moms house. Then when kid hits 14, they tell pops to fuck off. Kids take work. Wives divorce dudes that don't contribute to home chores, because kicking the dude out is literally less work for them. Because soooo many dudes want bang maids. That only works if you got a big enough paycheck to have a nanny and housekeeper (so they ain't a maid).
  24. Eh, that's a little close to Red Pill logic for my liking. But it also true that American women with jobs & education don't want to settle for being bang maids for slobs. If they can amazon a zillion toys (& bang hot dudes no strings?) and avoid scraping stale urine off the base of the toilet, I get it.
  25. That's fair. And I understand the NIMBYs because I used to be one. But it seems like the Austin contingent of D legislators either failed to identify that the cost of housing as the #1 non-abortion issue (or at least highly important), or recognized it but didn't offer a single solution. And that's worthy reaspn to primaty them in 2024.
