Its OK meself being younger as well as better looking than Ron I can accept the nomination for president I can't walk and I can still answer to my name. That makes me a automatic shoe in for 81 million vutes. Glad to see OLDBLUESMOKE is alive.

I saw that 2 Texans died hiking in the Grand Canyon in the last month. That thing really is a death trap. Y'all should fill in in before you get sued.

It's also 84 in Sedona, only an hour north. Full of weirdos though.

People do not use good judgment… we have quite a few hikers that die every year on local trails, people leaving their kids in cars to die, pool drownings when the toddler is out of the parents control. All preventable.

Yes, we were quite fortunate. The electricity went out for a second and then came back on. Lots of people around here were quite pissed that the infrastructure was so weak. Some heads shall roll. It's always been that way. Have you seen any evidence of them making capital improvements? I didn't think so. Thing is, Houston is unique with all the trees and floods. No one wants there streets torn up for months at a time. In newer neighborhoods like the Woodlands the wires are all underground, but many new developments still have the poles. You're exactly right, Ron.

Tigers are still a dumpster fire, in spite of the last 5 or 6 games. We have a handful of bona fide major leaguers. Until the trade deadline, anyway.

That's about how many we have at the moment, with all the injuries. Likely to stay that way till August, too, looking at timelines on guys' recoveries and rehab assignments. And Freddie Freeman is playing, but I have a pretty strong feeling he's playing hurt.

Just saw a video of people talking about a guy (with video) of the guy with a rifle on the roof before it happened and were rebuffed by security.
On the wife’s Tik Tok that I do not have.
Another failure of federal agents… built up into supermen, I think not.
Barney Fife’s.

Way too soon to take that “report” as gospel. And NONE of the SS agents I have known were Barney Fifes. Stop that.

NPR is calling it a “monumental failure” as they did a pretty good job at assessing the situation… leaders from both parties are calling for an investigation. www.npr.org/2024/07/14/nx-s1-5039137/secret-service-investigating-how-trump-shooter-was-able-to-get-so-close“ An Associated Press analysis of more than a dozen videos and photos taken at the Trump rally, as well as satellite imagery of the site, shows the shooter was able to get astonishingly close to the stage where the former president was speaking. A video posted to social media and geolocated by the AP shows the body of a man wearing gray camouflage lying motionless on the roof of a manufacturing plant just north of the Butler Farm Show grounds, where Trump's rally was held. The roof was less than 150 meters (yards) from where Trump was speaking, a distance from which a decent marksman could reasonably hit a human-sized target. For reference, 150 meters is a distance at which U.S. Army recruits must hit a scaled human-sized silhouette to qualify with the M16 assault rifle in basic training. The AR-15, like the shooter at the Trump rally had, is the semi-automatic civilian version of the military M16.“ That is the last I will say about it.

Yay! I now have an inguinal hernia. I think it began becoming apparent a few months ago, but I didn’t recognize the slight bulging as anything serious and forgot about it, because it was so slight. This week it got bad. Got almost as big as my closed fist yesterday. Now it actually is causing me pain. It subsides when I lay down of course. My 4 mile a day walking regimen is not possible as of today. Calling the doc in the morning. A friend at work gave me the overview of how they repair it and what to expect. Seems pretty simple and very routine.
