  1. I would recommend house rentals. Most are cheap and very comfortable. Angel Fire is small and easy to get around. A negative is dining compared to Taos and Santa Fe.
  2. Not all is bummer, we got 69 votes. Yes
  3. I have really have enjoyed reading this thread. I have been introduced to some new thinking or ideas concerning ancient religious concepts applied to today’s church. From time to time It is nice to see that others, like me, have chosen to give up bigoted, self-indulgent teachings from a childhood church denomination. I love Surly because in our discussion you get everything from the high brow to the down and dirty. Just the way it should be! After all I have read here concerning the current Methodist possible split, it just reinforces again one of my great disappointments of religion as we see it in real life...the hinderance or outright failure by the “Church” to establish congregations functioning according to the prayer of Jesus for his disciples. He prayed for them to practice and rejoice in unity as He and The Holy Father are unified. I think we all realize the Methodists are experiencing just another example of the pattern for the church dealing with discord among its members. It started with discord over circumcision, later on to papal authority, Moroni, pacifism, slavery, on and on, and now primarily abortion and LGBTQ. Who knows what controversies are ahead but they will certainly appear. I’ll just close this longest reply I certainly have written to a Surly thread by giving a quote I just kept thinking about while I was reading. It is by Richard Rohr a progressive (not political) Catholic priest in New Mexico. “The job of religion is to help people act effectively and compassionately from an inner centeredness and connection with God. The need to be right is not love.“

    What’s the matter, cat got your tongue ?
  5. Tech’s Duffy backs out on Tulane and reenters portal. Reckon Pirate came calling?
  6. It is just more of the same crap over and over again, but I refuse to get used to it.
  7. My biggest fear is that he rolls out 4-5 years in a row of 8-9 win seasons. CDC will not pull the string to fire him and we are stuck with the egotistical dipshit.
  8. A lot of us were consumed by the hype. We really didn’t know Tom Herman, particularly his gross egotism. That is why we pay millions to have competent, skilled athletic directors.
  9. Just going to love Jumbo agony when he gets his ass lit up.
  10. LBJ said it best. Gerald just played too much football without a helmet.
  11. It has been that way for awhile now. I refuse to get used to it though
  12. Bolton is not going to be subpoenaed to testify and he damn well knows it. His charade of having a patriotic rethink of his public responsibility is self-absorbed greed. He implies that he has important insight concerning this impeachment process. Since he was not granted an opportunity to testify you may buy his book and all will be revealed. Sure thing.
  13. So is Giles a given now?
  14. Good news for the Cowboys. Rhule to Panthers
  15. I am with you, Atom, but that was a 2008 electorate. When I see all of the idiocy around this country today, I don’t have a lot of confidence with 2020 voters.
  16. No worries, Jared has this.
  17. Gosh Johnny I didn’t know you were such an adherent to New Testament teaching. You being a big land owner it is refreshing to know you believe in the teachings of Acts. “The group of believers were united in their hearts and spirit. All those in the group acted as though their private property belonged to everyone in the group. In fact, they shared everything.” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭4:32‬ ‭NCV‬‬ “There were no needy people among them. From time to time those who owned fields or houses sold them, brought the money, and gave it to the apostles. Then the money was given to anyone who needed it.” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭4:34-35‬ ‭NCV‬‬ “Joseph owned a field, sold it, brought the money, and gave it to the apostles.” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭4:37‬ ‭NCV‬‬
  18. Dribble into a double team. Unreal
  19. Our zone offense consists of dribbling into the double team and shoot off balance or jack the three.
  20. Just sloppy on both ends
  21. If you would take that tie off, that turd would come out a little easier.
  22. Duvernay making some dollars tonight
  23. Ossai just a beast tonight
