  1. First off, let me just say fuck colds in the goats ass... dry. But I digress. I always get a flu shot and know it's a crapshoot as to whether they chose the right strain, but ounce of prevention and all that. Unfortunately, there isn't a cold shot or you can bet your ass I'd get one of those, too. My work requires me to make face to face contact with lots of people often from different parts of the world. I use the crap out of hand sanitizer but that doesn't stop airborne transmission and as usual I've got another fucking cold.

    Headache, sniffling, sneezing and general just feeling like crap. DayQuil, NyQuil, Emergen-C and Cold-Eeze are my regimen during the work week, but all they do is treat the symptoms. I've tried Zycam in the past, but it didn't appear to do anything at all. So in conclusion, fuck colds. Guess I should be happy I don't have the ebola or some southeast asian bird flu.

    The verified Trumpkins are on full attack: 

    "This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States" 

    They actually think that reads as all foreigners. 

    Then they must agree the 2nd only gives gun ownership rights to well regulated militia members. Slippery fuckin' slope.

  3. I assume you mean it doesn't close completely. That screw adjustment is just for lateral adjustment. Check to see if the board the door is screwed to has shifted. You might be able to take a rubber mallet and lightly move things. Most likely the spring has worn out and you'll have to replace the hinge or get used to having that one funky door. Everybody has that one funky door.

    Well when one of our longhorns dies I hook it up to the winch on the mule and drag it off into the brush. I think next time I’m going to use 100 kilos of explosives to blow the shit out of it. Also, this was not the thread I was expecting from the title.

     

    Why are your cows dying?

  5. We have 4 early voting locations in Wise County. I remember when W was running they used to have EV ballot boxes at the entrance to Walmart. One of the school districts was trying to get a bond for athletics passed after it had been defeated 3 times. They did a floating ballot box that went to all their games, school fund raisers and meetings. It shockingly passed that time. It just shows that when those in control want to get votes, they will bend over backward to get them.

    Trivial bitching here but Trump hijacking the democrat “Blue Wave” and pushing the notion of a “Red Wave” was really dumb.  

    First of all, waves are blue.  

    Red wave? What the fuck does that even mean? Red waves don’t exist you fucking idiot. 

    Come on Trump.

    There are red tides and they usually kill everything, so...

    What's your prediction on total voter turnout for this Senate seat?

    I don't have a number, but I think total turnout will be near Presidential election numbers. It's the makeup of the numbers that is going to be different. Beto has stirred up huge numbers of previously non-voters. Add that to the traditional D vote and a few crossover R & I votes and I think it will be enough to defeat the bluehairs and deplorables.

  8. I still say Beto wins. The natives are restless. He's stirred up votes that don't normally get cast and aren't being reflected in the polls. It won't be a runaway victory, but a victory none the less.

    Good scare tactic for the evangelicals whose only understanding of the disease comes from the bible. They don't know that it's not that common, isn't that contagious, and is now curable.

    Shut up before it starts raining frogs.

  10. Don't know where the best one is, but the one in Decatur will not make that list. They're slow. Slower than normal Whataburger slow. Getting to it is a pita. The parking lot is jacked up because they share the lot with a drive thru Starbucks. Just nothing redeeming about that location.
