    The fact that Tech is the nation's leading university for wind energy research is going to make things interesting if Trump does make that offer, which I doubt ever happens because he'll move on to the next shiny object any day now and this compact nonsense will be forgotten. 

    Nah, Russ Vought and Stephen Miller are in charge of this.

    If you are willing and able to do sex work, why bother with being a cop?  She must really enjoy harassing and beating minorities that aren’t paid and don’t enjoy it to take such a pay cut to do it instead of full time cam site and porn work. 

    The article I read said that she was in charge of doing driving tests, and she had a half-million dollar bill for home repairs from a storm that insurance didn't cover (it's nearly impossible to fully insure your home in CO.)

    DRIVING tests, winkwink,nudgenudge, say nomore!

  3. Quote

    Given the Rockies’ track record — seven consecutive losing seasons and just five playoff appearances in 33 years — and the challenges and vagaries of playing baseball at a mile above sea level, the job of rebuilding the franchise might seem undesirable for many. Spilborghs, however, believes that leading the offices at 20th and Blake is a highly coveted job.

    “I have talked to virtually every organization for the past couple of years,” Spilborghs said. “A lot of executives have asked me about the Rockies. They ask me what’s going on. Then I ask them, in turn, what they think of the situation. I cannot tell you how many of them have told me, ‘That’s my dream job.’ ”

    Someone should absolutely give that guy a look, seven undefeated seasons, ten 1 loss seasons.  He’s only lost more than 4 games once in 37 years, his very first season where he went 4-5.   I would say the guy can coach.

    Not that I disagree, but I have heard that Ferris is one of the only D2 programs that fully funds the 38 scholarships allowed in D2.   Colorado Mines, for instance, funds only about 30.  A lot of schools are in the teens.

    I am philosophically against the death penalty, so can't condone.

    Oh. Relevant. 

    Well it is relevant actually, because you claimed "you are the most affected poster of all time."

    I pointed out that there used to be a drooling idiot on here who was much more affected.  That does make my comment relevant.

    Are you familiar with this Rex Kramer person's posts?

    I'm typically more conservative than most posters on here and I will say that without a doubt this has to be rejected based on what I know.  There are some good ideas in the compact but also a lot of vagueness.  I'm also not sure what the schools actually received or if we know everything that was in the compact documents they received.  The good in my opinion, if done right, is to be merit based, freezing tuition

    You think that the federal government telling state universities what they can charge in tuition is a good idea?  That doesn't sound "conservative" at all.

    My concern goes far beyond the University of Texas at Austin. It’s the flagship, and not just for the system. It’s the gold standard for public higher education in Texas. Hell, this whole region of the country. Sure, the whimsical wishes of the regime change day-to-day, and UT could get tired of trying to placate our moronic monarch.

    In the meantime, schools across the state see UT receive that cash and start trying not just to emulate the University, but to outdo it, showing they’re even more deserving by becoming full-on reich-wing indoctrination centers.

    Why respond?  Response signals something. Just don’t respond. 

    On another note, you are the most affected poster of all time. 

    Nah, there used to be this loser named Rex Kramer who was way more affected.
