  1. this is so sickening. those poor people and their families.
  2. love it. but i also love Sam Raimi B horror movies.
  3. just curious, why is that?
  4. i hate how hyperspace is now instant. oh no. luke is hurt. no worry ill travel across the galaxy and be there in five minutes. oh and why the hell didn’t the star destroyer launch fighters?
  5. oh yeah. aggie coworkers have congratulated me. most are decent in person
  6. the start talks about VAT. we don’t have Value add tax. i’m confused. in fact the entire link is about how to phase out of oils and gas. i mean. who would want to invest billions into a refinery that won’t be around before they see a ROI. I personally don’t. The bankers and investors sure don’t. if anything i fear we are going to need more subsidies if we want to keep refineries open and operating safely until a green source of fuel is abundant.
  7. ugh. already getting shit in the office. came in to a longhorn with its horns “sawed off” taped to the door. eh. rivals are what makes college sports fun. right?
  8. more than a ball didn’t bounce our way…
  9. turned off. we seem to do better when i don’t watch anyway
  10. this is honest to god frightening. hopefully it forces the republican party to purge the Q/trump fuck heads. but who am i kidding?
  11. i’m disgusted anyone would make fun of someone falling especially someone his age i actually give him major props for this. first, most people that age can’t even ride a bike. those that do would probably break something if they fell. people need to realize the other side is still human. you might not like his politics but by all accounts he is a patriot who is doing what the thinks is best for the county. same can’t be said for others.
  12. they really fucked up by not dropping their pants to get Texas / OU + hanger ons a decade or so ago. major powers in the central time zone is the only thing that could have saved them.
  13. i’m going to become legit depressed if this bungling inflation/ economy leads to a new trump / trump lite. especially since he would have most likely handled it even worse. hell, he did.
  14. dumb question. can’t impeach trump, but they impeach fellow congressmen?
  15. refineries have shut down. shell closed one or two in louisiana and lyondell is closing a huge one in houston the the equipment is getting old and outdated. no one wants to spend the money required to update since demand is only going to go down long term. talked to a high up at the lyondellbasell facility recently a number of factors went into play: they don’t have a direct source oil production like the big players (exxon, chevron, etc) so they can only buy the “leftover” crude, which is not only generally shitty, but the grade of oil fluctuates. makes it hard to plan things out. they were banking on keystone XL to change that by supplying low cost crude at a set grade. we know what happened there the refinery itself is very old with out of date equipment. The facility is generally at the end of life and they are not willing to invest in new equipment for two reasons.. lack of long term growth due to the changing market. lack a steady supply of “good” crude (see my earlier keystone comment) ironically they are making more money now than ever. so they plan on riding this one last wave before leveling the facility. the land is very valuable due to being on the port of houston
