  1. Topwater or Marker 212 rig w/plastic https://pstacklergv.com/product/marker-212-rig-bone/
  2. Best place in CenTex to trade handguns? for store credit, if better trade value, as I'd like to trade a few mid-range pistols for a higher end pistol
  3. Fidelity app gonna look good in the morning
  4. Summers at the grandparents in the 80s consisted of carrying 5 gallon buckets of rainwater from a barrel down a hill and hand water individual tomato plants (with Miracle Gro) in a garden that measured 120'x80'. Pulling suckers. Running the tiller. Digging onions. I was told my bright idea of siphoning the water down the hill would have wasted the rainwater. My grandmother would sneakily give me 50 cents so my grandfather didn't see. And yet here I am.
  5. I bought 10 Celebrity+ about 2’ tall for $2/plant at Inevitable Homegrown in Lockhart and replanted them deep, in large pots.
  6. I got me another 100 to put in VOO and every other Wednesday there’s been a drop. Dec 6, 20, Jan 3, 17, 31. Not sure if there’s a reason, but I’ll be looking for one on Valentine’s Day.
  7. I bought 1,120 shares of VOO this month. Just get in the game.
  8. Article says he didn’t finish his meal. I’m guessing no one offered him a to-go box.
  9. Death penalty is 3x cost of life sentence. For every 9 executions carried out since the death penalty was reinstated in the 70s, one death row inmate has been exonerated. The murder rate is highest where the death penalty exists, and lowest where there is no death penalty. There is no deterrent effect. The death penalty is 3x more likely based on race of defendant or race of victim. Every study in every state has come to this same conclusion. In Harris county, the death penalty capital of the US, trial courts have almost universally adopted the prosecutors’ proposed findings of facts and conclusions of law in every death penalty case, effectively making judicial review by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals nothing more than a rubber stamp.
  10. Many of them were already dead but a few could have been saved. This notion of law enforcement waiting for orders is nonsense. They already had their orders.
  11. Murder for hire is capital murder (life without parole or death) for both the actor and solicitor. Killing two people is capital murder. That was the plan that was half executed but for the mother firing back. This unrepentant asshole (you can see it in the interview) tried to kill his parents for money. What an ungrateful piece of shit. Incapacitation, deterrence, retribution. Some crimes are beyond the goal of rehabilitation. He’s dead to his own mother. He was lucky to get 35. A damn good job by his defense attorney who is a friend of mine.
  12. you hate to see it, but more than that....you love to see it Charlie Strong Stupid?
