  1. SEC will probably kick off if 50% of the USA population is infected.
  2. I'm approaching 80 years old and my views towards sports changed as I aged. For 30 years I was in my seat for every home game and some road trips. As ESPN and FOX improved their coverage and traffic and other headaches (weather) became more hassle I decidedly preferred to watch on big screen at home or with friends. All that said I hope you younger folks continue to show and represent those of us who you complain about refusing to stand the entire game lol. I cannot imagine the ou game without a crowd. I have made a promise this year that before much longer I will personally attend another ou game in Dallas. I haven't been since 2009.
  3. Cowherd tweeted that the Bama vs USC game at ATT Stadium looks doubtful. Told by two people I trust — USC v Alabama isn’t happening. Trojans can’t even practice in LA potentially for several months. This is why Bama already talking to other possible opponents. Not official but understood. Feeling now that Pac 12 football in spring — much more likely.
  4. @ Dutch, So sorry for the loss. I hope in time you will get another dog but we always remember the ones we had. Truly man's best friend.
  5. Note the photo of the Ga Tech fans. Some teams played as few as four games, some none. Army/Navy was cancelled but Ga Tech played on https://www.si.com/college/tmg/tony-barnhart/spanish-flu
  6. If inflation occurs within the next four years as I expect this would be a steal. Congrats.
  7. Do you still own the car? What has been your experience? Still happy with the vehicle? I know Tesla use to have a showroom in the Houston Galleria but I have no clue if it is open now that the Galleria has reopened. Can you buy the used vehicle in their showroom?
  8. Previously someone had tied a poop sack to the sign.
  9. When we closed on our home in Houston in September 2018 Old Republic Title on Post Oak warned us of fraudulent wire instructions and ask us to being cashiers check to closing. Since our previous home flooded with 4 feet of water in Harvey I didn’t need anymore drama. I brought the check[emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  11. The Wisconsin Pension Fund agrees with you. The State of Wisconsin Investment Board made some big changes in some of its largest stock investments in the first quarter, a period marked with volatility brought on by the coronavirus pandemic . SWIB, as the board is known, manages state trust funds that at the end of 2019 totaled more than $128 billion, 91% of which falls under the Wisconsin Retirement System. SWIB sold Apple (ticker: AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT) and Intel (INTC) in the first quarter, and doubled its stake in ride-hailing firm Uber Technologies (UBER). It disclosed the trades in a form it filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Wisconsin Retirement System is the eighth-largest U.S. public pension fund and, by some measures, among the best. A study by the Pew Charitable Trusts using 2017 data found that Wisconsin had the best-funded state pension, with a funded ratio of 102.7%—meaning it had $1.03 in assets for every $1 in liabilities. The average state was only 69.1% funded, and only seven other states had a funded ratio over 90%. At the end of 2018, the pension remained fully funded. While the article implies they sold AAPL, MSFT and INTC they just reduced their holdings and still hold a ton of those three stocks.
  12. It has been that way since the March stay home started at the Whataburger in Houston near Voss (Winrock) on San Felipe. The traffic light at Winrock/San Felipe gets backed up due to the take out crowd. I wished I could buy Whataburger stock. It is now privately owned :(.
  13. It's like she can read signs https://imgur.com/zLfeXKQ
  14. I've been saying that ever since the draw in Korea but WTF, we're still here
  15. While I'm no expert since I lost my ass in March's market, here is a little more positive news for you to chew on this afternoon. I think the guy is really onto something I just didn't see coming like a speeding train. https://realmoney.thestreet.com/investing/this-isn-t-just-a-bear-market-it-s-a-transition-to-a-new-economy-15315683
  16. Your first paragraph is spot on. I take issue with some parts of the second paragraph. I never fully understood UT and aggy's positioning when Broyles broke away. I do know for fact Broyles thought he had an agreement with UT and aggy to follow. Not sure if that was with Royal or Dodds. I seriously cannot see Dodds ever agreeing to go the SEC. AS I recall it wasn't UT or aggy wanting to go to SEC so much as it was the the TEXAS LEGISLATURE that quashed any move away from SWC.
  17. 3.169 million vs 3.05 expected. Good prediction Wally
  18. Since there is no RMD from our IRA this year I'm thinking of taking that amount anyway and putting the after tax net into my puny Roth. For some damned reason my investing skills have been better in the IRA than in the Roth, yet nothing to brag about in the IRA either. Note: I'm almost 80 and I'm told it is foolish to convert any money into Roth at this age. If the market tanks, as I think it might, this would probably be a bad decision. The IRA would become less valuable and subject to smaller future RMD taxes. However, if the market continues to muddle along wouldn't it make sense to at least juice my under performing Roth?
  19. Relaxed rules regarding hair cuts Here are some of the rules they will have to follow: One customer per stylist allowed in the establishment, unless they are waiting for service Six feet of distancing between work stations Appointment system encouraged If allowing walk-ins, distancing required for people waiting for service Customers and stylists are strongly recommended to wear masks throughout Trying to figure out how that pesky mask will work lol.
  20. My wife empties the dishwasher whenever the mood strikes here regardless if they are dirty or clean. They go up in the cabinets.
  21. Only way we reach anything close to 1900 is 1900 deaths per hour starting next week.
