  1. Wichita Falls < Mineshaft
  2. Where do the cruise ships tie up? Seems like developing the area around USS Texas into tourist/historical area. Make money off those passengers coming and going.
  3. https://www.timesrecordnews.com/story/news/local/2025/03/06/word-of-her-murder-surprised-a-woman-living-in-bowie/81651162007/?taid=67c9954e57ec2100013bdb69&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter Mark Twain once said, "The report of my death was an exaggeration." Dorothia Diaz might say the same thing. Dorothia was unaware until late February that she was the subject of a cold case search by a California coroner’s team which thought she had been murdered half a century ago. Dorothia, 76, assured the Times Record News on Wednesday she had not been murdered. DNA obtained from the remains of a woman found dead in an abandoned mineshaft in the Mojave Desert in 1976 sent retired coroner David Van Norman on a genetic safari to identify the woman. By process of elimination, he concluded the murder victim was most likely Dorothy Riddick, whose family was from the Wichita Falls-Henrietta area. An article about his search in the Times Record News connected Van Norman to a Henrietta family. That connection in turn led him to Dorothia, his missing link who was still alive and well and living in Bowie.

    I questioned why they sailed so far and only brought a couple of cases.

  7. WTF is wrong with you guys? Do you have any idea how much we're going to get for all those redwoods? Yellowstone gonna blow up anyway, don't let it go to waste. Dolla, dolla bills, yo.
  8. I don't have a problem with enclosed places. I served on a ships and they're almost nothing but enclosed spaces. I have a problem being underground where I could easily be buried alive. Also have a severe dislike for high ledges. Height doesn't bother me, but the distinct possibility of uncontrolled descent does.
  9. I think he read it perfectly. The set up for the question was perfect call back. I think he was nervous uncomfortable as his bit and it worked. Like I said, SNL hasn't pushed the envelope in a while.
  10. They stuck the landing.
  11. Honestly, I thought he delivered. SNL hasn't pushed the outside of the envelope in a while. If I'm uncomfortable about laughing, it must be funny.
  12. Cockroaches and Velveeta will survive the nuclear apocalypse.
  13. Haven't seen anyone mention Bite the Bullet. Underrated,
  14. My Grandmother was fond of this method. Apply liberally. Extremely effective.
  15. Close. It was all kinds of dairy products from Rich Foods in Buffalo going to Kraft. Did not eat any.
  16. Shit, I almost forgot the Rush concert in Seattle 1979. It was festival seating a/k/a no seats on the floor. No problem with the opening act, but when Rush came out people pushed forward. I was about 20 ft from the right speaker stack and people were pushing so hard I couldn't breathe. I noped tf out. Turned right and started swinging until I found open space. Oddly enough, I never had a problem with an OBA. But then, you never want one.
