According to Hicks, yes.

I saw that. He apparently attended Chi St for a time too. I had the same thought. I will give him credit for taking his own SATs. It’s not like he went to Penn or anything...

I would first need to know if Kanye actually took his own SATs.

Saw that too. Thanks for saving me a google search. I assumed it was BS but...

Wait, what happened to the promises made that aggy could cheat with impunity if it joined the SEC??

All great. I go back and forth whether Godfather (1 & 2 - both equally great in my book) is my favorite or The Usual Suspects. Depends on my mood I guess.

My wife and I were engaged when they were coming out. We bought the first one as an audio book when we were going somewhere. Then we would go get the new ones as soon as they came out. If we didn’t have somewhere to go, we would find somewhere. I remember vividly having to pull over to the side of the road during the last one (somewhere between Jasper and Zavala as I recall). I remember discussing the John Coffey/Jesus Christ comparison. Great memories. My wife devours anything King as soon as it’s released. And we both agree that 100 years from now, he will he THE great American novelist (not that he isn’t already). Hemingway, Fitzgerald, etc are great, but no one has been as great AND prolific as King. Nobody.

Same, same and same. Shawshank is one I watch any time I see it on. Without fail.

Pulp Fiction is in my top 10 for sure. Was my favorite of Tarantino’s (and he’s definitely one of my favorite directors) but Once Upon a Time in Hollywood may have surpassed it for me. It was incredible too I thought.

This is pretty funny too

That’s my assumption as well but a better statement would be something along the lines of “this is not a UiL or school sanctioned event but we at the district support and are so proud of our students.” And even better, “we appreciate our communities support (financial and otherwise) of our students as they have represented our school with such distinction.” Just my 2 cents.

And by the way, huge congrats to these students on an incredibly impressive achievement!

Just saw something about this from Todd. What the heck is WOCCISD thinking? They are supposed to jump on the bandwagon of such achievements, not distance themselves. This is a real head scratcher to me.

My wife’s been upset with certain “developments” for years now.

I think it was just north of 60 inches in some areas in mid county. More than 50 in other parts of our area. Prior to that, and the subsequent Imelda though, I thought of Tropical Storms as just that....storms.

Do you guys remember the days when if it was merely a tropical storm headed our way, nobody blinked? I do but probably because that was less than 5 years ago. What the heck happened?

That’s what I understand as well. Apparently the schnaz is the main thing that should be covered.

I can’t remember if it was here or Locker Room. Much higher traffic here though.

Look at that - in the end, we agree on the end result. Under Texas law, it would fall, in my opinion, between either manslaughter or criminally negligent homicide. So while we disagree on how we get there, we agree on what the final outcome should be. God bless America and SETX sports 😁

So you finally realized your ridiculous assertion that all they did was watch a video was incorrect. Keep reading sport...you might learn something yet.

“The findings by the family’s private medical examiners directly contradict the report that there was no asphyxia, said Dr. Allecia M. Wilson, of the University of Michigan, one of the doctors who examined his body. The physical evidence showed that the pressure applied led to his death, she said. In an interview, Dr. Michael Baden, who also participated in the private autopsy, said there was also some hemorrhaging around the right carotid area.” Again, just because you keep saying all the independent MEs did was watch a cell phone video does not make it true. In fact, that is patently false. I don’t expect you to know the difference between a physical examination without having access to tissue samples and watching a video.

Hold up, the job is going to remain Ehlinger’s for the fourth year in a row??? That’s crazy...

It was as contradictory as the quoted post is. The initial ME was as hacky as one might expect from a play doctor. Albeit one who had the full benefit of a physical exam that the real doctor did not. If you didn’t find anything of merit in Baden’s, methinks you are rooting for a certain outcome that is contrary to what you claim.

I understand your opinion. And I would further assume because you disagree with his assessment in that case and believe he purposefully lied, you would not trust his opinion in any case. Fair enough. I have used the same argument against many cops who were caught “lying” (under oath) over the years. That doesn’t change the fact that Baden might be the most respected forensic pathologist in the world. There’s a reason he’s called into most high profile cases. He was the one who opined recently that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered and did not commit suicide after performing an independent ME. (And when I read his report and his medical conclusions, I tend to agree with him.). And as someone who has performed over 20,000 autopsies, again, his opinion is going to carry more weight with most than your typical coroner. And it would certainly carry more weight than the opinion of a lawyer or a cop as to the medical cause of death.
