  1. Don’t apply Hanlon’s razor when Occam’s applies. It was on purpose refer to Brisket’s razor
  2. My family’s brains are broken on this even when I have cited that Eucharist is the body of Christ and when we receive it that is the physical act of being in communion with the global Body of Christ. They don’t care because they watch too much Fox News to contemplate scripture or Catechism
  3. Without a cue stick and balls?
  4. Played pocket pool
  5. Read the last one. “Blame the people who voted against this“ not the named guys who actually pulled the trigger it’s not Elon and Donald’s fault that they were forced into doing this
  6. If it's the post I'm thinking of, I thought of Lobo when reading it.
  7. I clearly stated I was thinking like a DJT voter
  8. Maybe where they'll send al the Palestinians to make room for the Casinos and resorts.
  9. My wife works for a public school and they are getting ready to do layoffs due to the underfunding by Abbott. She is getting informed by her coworkers now on things I have been saying for years. She went to private school and was predisposed to vouchers before this.
  10. Yep, If all the Boomer MAGATs lose those for the next three years and die off it will shore up the reserves for when I'm ready to retire. (thinking like a DJT voter)
  11. Who’s still driving their car? I’ve been working on reliability and performance. Got the clutch adjusted and it drives so much better. one with photos and a video driving it.
  12. I'm wondering if they can direct it towards the TAMC vs Piggy game at Jerryworld. You know, for maximum efficiency. Obligatory:
  13. https://apnews.com/article/asteroid-2024-yr4-earth-2032-5c353e2ee53bb1ecd68a562611d54062 CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The threat of a newly discovered asteroid has risen slightly in the past few weeks, as the world’s telescopes rush to track its course. But the chance of an impact is still quite slim. New calculations suggest there’s a 2% chance the space rock 2024 YR4 will smack Earth in 2032.
  14. Surly mathematicians, would you describe Kyle's path from fat nobody to celeb du jour back to bearded fat slob selling pew pews as regression towards the mean?
  15. Sending surplus or obsolete equipment made in the USA to Ukraine to defend democracy, stop ethnic cleansing and a enemy foreign invasion with no US troops is Bad Sending US troops and money to ethnically cleanse Gaza and rebuild it as a resort community with taxpayer money that gets us into a 50 year conflict with Oligarchs reaping all the benefit is good.
  16. My daughter got CAP. I'm a very proud/happy dad. She's considering it. She didn't want to go to UTSA for a year because she just wanted to jump in where she will be for 4 years. What have been other experiences with CAP? Can they get a roommate that is also CAP so they can support each other and be friends when they get to Austin? She applied to the school of Nursing. I heard it is very competitive. Is there a path to Nursing from CAP? I saw this on the nursing.utexas page as required. Does this mean that the 24 hours have to be from the sophomore year at Austin? I know it says preferred but I'm trying to read between the lines. 24 credit hours (it is preferred that these are done in residence at UT). Courses taken pass/fail, by UT Extension, UT Correspondence, or credit by exam do not satisfy these eligibility requirements. She is also accepted at Arkansas, Texas State and several backup schools and she may get financial assistance and get to play soccer at Austin College in Sherman. So she has some solid options.
  17. I love that “STOLLEN” makes a comeback. need a bingo card for covefe, indicated, et al
  18. What about investment grade corporate bonds? What is the risk tradeoff there?
