  1. Maybe I'm wrong but IF Trump can be saddled with a conviction of any sort before Election Day -- and yes, I know he will appeal to the last -- that might be something that a small fraction of voters can't get past. If we're looking at a razor-thin margin in the battleground states like PA, OH, MI, NV, AZ, etc it could mean the difference in November. Right?
  2. I didn't realize it was Posobiec who told the CPAC crowd "welcome to the end of democracy" yesterday. https://www.mediaite.com/trump/welcome-to-the-end-of-democracy-trump-booster-jack-posobiec-vows-to-finish-what-began-on-jan-6-as-steve-bannon-cheers-on/

  4. Here’s video: https://www.threads.net/@bidenharrishq/post/C3qlRHdPLFA/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
  5. Beats me. There's two ways to get to Progressive -- either thru an independent broker like us or directly to them. I think pricing is slightly better if you go direct because then they don't have to pay the commission. Could be something changed slightly -- deductible options, coverages might've been tweaked slightly from your previous policies and it's possible you're getting a "new business" credit because the system didn't/doesn't recognize you as a current client. You might not have selected a few add-in coverages this time or they might no longer be offered. Could also be that you've got a better insurance score than the first go-round and the system could be spitting out renewal offers without updating that info. Really hard to tell exactly.
  6. Not a fucking chance. That is nightmare fuel for me. It combines three of my biggest (albeit Irrational in many ways) fears -- plane crash, deep water and sharks.

    Texas Primaries

    Taking my 18-year-old daughter to go vote for the first time this afternoon. I'm going over the Dem ballot for Dallas. Anybody know who has a better shot against Morgan Meyer in November -- Yasmin Simon or Elizabeth Ginsberg? Seems like Ginsberg tried before and lost -- or maybe she ran for something else. Appears she's a Longhorn. Neighbor across the street has multiple Simon signs in his yard, which surprised me a bit. He's an executive at AT&T. His next-door neighbor is actually a R candidate for a State Board of Education seat. Also, anybody have feelings about Sam Eppler or Francine Ly, who are vying to challenge Beth Van Duyne (puke) in November? Eppler appears to have a lot more money. Dude is only 28, I think.
  8. Same clip with a delicious little soundbyte from Tubs. https://www.threads.net/@ronaldfilipkowski/post/C3p2Ay1O2E1/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
  9. Have you unplugged the router and plugged it back in?
  10. Oh, fuck me. I had the right movie character in mind but confused the movie and blew the line.
  11. This is actually a pretty good entry. This movie is WAY more enjoyable than it ever should've been.
  12. Warriors, come out toooooooo plaaaaaaay!!!
  13. I mean there is NOTHING stopping the organizers from keeping every last penny of that less GoFundMe’s fees, right?
  14. I wish I'd thought of it first. Rudy opines on Jack Smith's legal ability:
  15. John Oliver said HBO's new policy is to not let him post his clips until the Thursday after his show airs, so I did have to do a little work to bring this clip that he showed last night. (I hope it works.) It's about 45-50 seconds. You can punch out as soon at 1:20:33 or so when he ends this "story." EDIT: well, fuck, when I edited to fix some grammar, it must’ve killed the YouTube. I’ll try and re-post. EDIT #2: Here it is:
  16. We get more easily side-tracked than the orange sack of shit does during his stump speeches.

Celeb judges include Tootsie Tomanetz, Daniel Vaughn, Jeffrey Hobbs, Jack Perkins, Doug Pickering, Marshall Prichard.
  18. Spent one night at the Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine for my son's birthday nearly 10 years ago and it was one of the worst experiences of my life. When I got remarried a few years late, one of my wife's family friends gave us a $500 GC to GWL thinking we'd want to take the kids out there sometime. I donated the card to be a raffle item at our annual Rib Cook-Off fund-raising event.
