  1. I was reading what was posted in the thread so far and thought about the state of our society in general as it relates to guns and ownership. It was not specific to this shooting. Perhaps it came across that way.
  2. I gave up after sandy hook. If that didn't cause change for common sense gun laws to pass, nothing would.
  3. No the affidavit was done quite quickly and at a fraction of the cost. Can't remember exactly how it was done but it was the standard way. What took me a year was calling once a month telling wells Fargo the affidavit was good enough.
  4. We had the same issue with a few checks and other things that were made out to " the estate of my dad" Those really took the longest for us as we had to deal with wells Fargo on that one. Bank said heirship affidavit was not good enough. Needed to probate. Took me a year but after about the 7th different person I spoke with there she just said ya I'll go ahead and make these out to you and your brothers. Just be persistent. I wasn't gonna pay 5 grand for that stupid probate thing. Idiotic that is required . The affidavit is fine.
  5. Just to chime in here. When my dad passed we did everything with the affidavit of heirship. House, insurance, 401k, bank accounts. Some took talking to the right person but in the end we saved a bunch of money not probating. One caveat is he did live in Amarillo and we tend to do things differently there. Basically we knew someone who knew someone who we went to school with so most things had a way of working out without too much fuss. "hey utgrad sorry about your dad. You know he was the band king in middle school?" " Yes sir I did. Do you think we will have any trouble since my dad didn't probate his will? " "I'm sure we can figure out something."
  6. Any Ikea. Do I win anything? Perhaps those fine paintings?
  7. Someone question my logic. If my family spends 40k a year on non-mortgage related stuff like food, gas etc and inflation is 7 percent, would a $2800 a year raise offset my family's personal inflation costs? Let's say that is a pay raise of 3 percent for my family's household income. Would that 3 percent raise effectively mean our familys purchasing power remained the same year over year?
  8. 5 people in my pharmacy, including myself, got covid over the past 2 weeks. Since the pandemic began we had never had more than 2 out at once. There are 18 of us or so working each day. While we have been a bit more lax than before we are all still masked 95 percent of the time. I still can't wrap my head around so many people getting it with how careful we are. If the new strain is this contagious I don't see how we avoid another wave. And my symptoms kinda sucked. We are all vaxed.
  9. What is the lowest combined seedings for a regional semi and finals?
  10. It's not computing how a blue blood is getting shafted on so many calls to a religious school known for covering up raping girls.
  11. It is litterally this simple. Ncaa and other governing sports bodies need to act asap or it will be a clown show. You name the sport, if something doesn't change, this will be the result.
  12. I have no idea. But I have a pretty good idea which teams will likely beat them
  13. Not a slippery slope at all. This is as black and white, cut and dry as it can be.
  14. I have no expectations for today. We know exactly who we are. There is no magic week of practice that will clear up our flaws. We know our strengths and weaknesses and we know our ceiling as a team. Hoping we have great 3 point shooting to put us over the hump usually doesn't work out well.
  15. St Peters just shrinking in the moment. These turnovers are all of the wtf variety
  16. Beyond ridiculous this is allowed to happen. Common sense completely out the window. Feel so bad for the girls who have trained for this and who now have this as their memory of a moment they've worked so hard to get to. Make no mistake I'm not upset at all at the trans girl either. Just another issue to politicize at the expense of others. Idiotic. Any trans girl athlete still has a man's body. Am I taking fucking crazy pills?
  17. He needs to suffer the exact same way as those dogs. Anything short of that is a failure of our society.
  18. This is good info. Thank you. That seems reasonable.
