He’s high on OxyContin.
Hope he gets addicted.That would explain why he always looks constipated.

That's called a Kentucky Mule, and it's been around for a while.

Ok. Someone who is brown, in the U.S., maybe here on a visa or a citizen, radicalized by Isis, sent those bombs. You think he gets a 20 year sentence?
I think he would get sentenced within the federal guidelines...just like this guy. Like it or not, the dude plead guilty and showed remorse...things that get taken into consideration in sentencing all the time. He's an admitted life long alcoholic, so he'll probably die in prison from shitty medical care anyway. Would running up the score with a 100 year sentence on a 57 year old man make you feel safer somehow?
-
Sounds like he plead guilty and apologized (showed remorse). He's 57, so even with good time he'd be 75 before he would be out if he lives that long. I don't see the point of giving a guy like that a 100 year sentence.

He's also a cautionary tail about the consequences of living with untreated Low T.

Seems like all but the Baptists and white suburban Strip Mall denominations are done with this administration.

I like Huge Fly Fisherman. He's funny, but always manages to drop some real knowledge.

Took the girls out and let them hook up on some trout and mangrove snapper. Dropped them off at the house and chased tarpon at dark hooking up on 3 10-15 pound fish. Another solid day on the water, but with their summer over it will probably be a few weeks before I get back out.
I do have a question for you long time saltwater guys. What knot are you using for leader connections? I’ve been avoiding using swivels and just go line to line, but I’m having an issue with them slipping lately or if I use a double uni they are hanging on the guides. It’s been an issue with Tarpon and large Snook mainly, but I don’t think it is a line size issue because it looks like they are just sliding apart.
I use the blood knot.

Since we are on the subject, some fun notes-
the boat I mentioned above, Smooth Move, travels between Costa Rica and the U.S. hitting both tournament circuits and fun fishing in between. Owner is out of Louisiana and had a 500,000 dollar budget for the captain to purchase t-shirts, stickers, koozies etc. when they back in to weigh-in’s at tournaments they have 2 t-shirt guns like you see at sporting events to shoot shirts into the crowd.
Bandit, an 82 or 84 foot Viking based in Port A has an owner that gets seasick and hardly ever fishes. He sends clients out on the boat and during tournament season he hires additional captains and mates to be his fishing team. The reason he has a boat that big is because he had a 74ish Viking, but then another guy in Port A bought a 78 foot boat. He got pissed his boat was not the biggest in town so he bought a new one.
the craziest I’ve seen is in Los Suenos in Costa Rica. The Russian finance minister or something like that has an 80 foot fishing boat there. And a 140 foot yacht. He also has matching yachts and fishing boats in about 10 other places. A few years ago we were fishing a tournament there and there are certified observers that come on your boat to record your sailfish and marlin releases. You have to feed them and we generally do sandwiches or fried chicken. Friend of mine gets assigned to the Russian boat as an observer. It’s a party with like 15 guys and a bunch of paid women. This is a serious tournament with some of the best crews in the world. They start the day at 6 am with multiple bottles of vodka and drink all day. It gets to be lunch time and they bring my friend lobster, and caviar in a Faberge egg.

I knew what it was before I clicked. I was staring at it from the cleaning tables wondering how much it would be (didn’t know it was for sale) 2 weekends ago.
yea, it's a little too fancy for what I want in a bay house. We'd have to redecorate in neon beer signs, girly posters, and big maps of the bay but I guess it would do.
Like one of my cajun buddies once told me "ya neva wanna make ya camp too nice...din ya ole lady wanna go all da time"

I've been once. I got there kind of late on a Thursday (1:45ish) and they were out of moist brisket. I got lean brisket, the little bit of sausage they had left, and some pulled pork and their smoked mac & cheese. It was all excellent. I tried the free beans and thought they were pretty meh. Way more chili powder than I like. Tasted like someone opened a can of ranch style, then added more chili powder and garlic salt. Just overpowering. I've been meaning to go back earlier in the day to get some moist...might try to do that this week.

There’s a nice foreclosed one right now. Or as of a week or so ago. ~500-ish iirc. 3400 ft^2
That's another thing...there seem to be a fair number of foreclosures in there for the small number of houses built. I guess that's the nature of second homes.
I've got a buddy that built a bad ass house in La Buena Vida around 2012 or so. He dropped over a Mil back in 2012 dollars on the place. Waterfront, infinity pool, etc etc. He thought he was building this weekend oasis for his family that his kids would love, but they never wanted to go. His oldest is in college now and he may have been there 3 times. Place took a beating during Harvey, but stayed standing. He had hell getting decent help on the stuff that needed fixing, though. Now he goes there by himself once a month and just sits around and gets drunk in a big empty house. He's tried to sell it a couple times with no takers, so he's talked about just letting the bank have it.

The only thing I've been able to find in my admittedly limited googling is that back in 09-10 the management company filed for BK and nothing was getting taken care of at the property, but nothing bad recently.
I mean, I could go write a check tomorrow for one of the $5,000 outer ring lots. If HOA and taxes are $150/Mo, that's not too bad for a private ramp and cleaning station, then having the ability to drag the cooler over to a nice pool and cool off and have a few brews before using the showers and heading back to Seadrift or POC for dinner. Do that for a few years until I could build something or flip the lot for a little profit. Now if the dead restrictions say I've got to build a 2,000 sq ft house @ $300 sq ft level of finish out, that would change the calculus.

Yup, $25 to Mad Dog.

I'm still kicking myself for not buying that trailer in Shoalwater Flats 5 years ago for $45K. The last thing I saw for sale in there last year was a pre-built 2 bedroom cabin (like the ones you see for sale on the side of the road) on stilts that sold for $125K in about a week.

That’s awesome. I’ve been toying with getting a (small) place down there. Can’t swing the fancy new shit on the ICW but thinking about picking up an in town lot in the next year. The “where to send your kids to college” thread on the other boards have officially killed my dreams of Key Allegro.
I've thought about that, too...but launching a boat at a public ramp in POC is maybe the biggest shit show on the entire Texas coast. I've looked at Swan Point Landing in Seadrift and an interior lot in the Sanctuary, too. Swan Point would be awesome if it was more sheltered. I wouldn't be excited about launching at their ramp then having to beat ass in a skiff across open water San Antonio and ESB to get to the back side of the island. I don't know what's up with the sanctuary...For what those interior lots are selling for, you'd think they would be sold out but that's not the case. Location is great, amenities are great...I don't get it. Deed restrictions make construction too expensive? HOA fees ridiculous? Those outer ring lots are so cheap I've thought about buying one just so I could use their ramp and facilities.

It made me sick to rep this post. I never predict the outcome of elections. You nicely name the variables why I don't.
We should all be banging pots like the Puerto Ricans and the Chileans before them. Every night, 90% of the US population should be outside raising hell.
We don't have the stuff for preserving democracy.
Edit to add: Network and A Face In the Crowd are perfect movies anticipating where we are.
I've had some longer flights this week, so I've been rewatching Ken Burns' "The Civil War" This quote from Lincoln from 1838 caught my attention.
" At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide." - A. Lincoln
