  1. Well, since all you seem to want to do is come in here and take your pot shots and me and Reagan, you can have it, Porter. Feel free to reuse “pot shots”. Simple Google search: Representative Thomas Massie voted to block President Trump's 2019 national emergency declaration regarding the southern border. [1, 2] He was one of 13 House Republicans who broke party lines in February 2019 to support the resolution overturning the declaration. Massie later joined 14 Republicans in March 2019 to vote with all Democrats to override President Trump's veto of the measure. He justified his votes by asserting that the Constitution grants the power of the purse exclusively to Congress and that a president cannot bypass this by reallocating funds when Congress refuses to approve their spending requests
  2. It’s been nice conversing on an adult level. You‘ve used the phrase “get the hook out of your mouth” several times, which tells me how you operate. I guess you forgot about voting against border wall funding in 2019 when Trump declared national emergency. It wasn’t disingenuous. Have a good evening.
  3. I did my research. It was a baited question and I didn’t bite. I knew about the bill. At least I can converse with you without referring to Massie as your savior. I know better than to make that reference. It’s all good.
  4. Good bait.
  5. Massie is not the only one who believes otherwise. It’s already been settled. Massie just wants to fan flames. He voted against the border wall, so I don’t care to hear anything he has to say. It’s an opinion piece. He’ll spew his sour grapes till he leaves.
  6. Watch and listen to what? This was an awful mistake that happened almost 60 years ago. I don’t believe it has any bearing on our involvement in Iran.
  7. Are you putting money on them?
  8. What should we do?
  9. I knew a man who worked at Georgetown Steel back in the day. He operated the overhead crane. He may have still been there when it became North Star.
  10. I don’t know what the job scene is like today. In the early 70s, there were plenty of jobs available, even for the trade schools. I went undeclared for a couple semesters which was a huge mistake. Unless you know your life’s ambition, paying to go to school is like a merry-go-round. There are lots of kids graduating high school who don’t have a clue what their job interests are. I was one of those kids. Should have stayed with the A/C field. There were like 10 jobs available for every graduate, but economics was a problem and I still wasn’t sure that’s what I wanted. Even back then, I couldn’t believe the ease of the basic subjects in the trade schools. Both math and English were on 4th or 5th grade levels. Math tests would have 1/2 + 1/4 equals……I would actually have people looking over my shoulder for answers. Maybe I should have tried engineering….lol. Long story short……economics was a key factor in my not finishing at Lamar. Nowadays, and probably back then, process operator classes would have been the best route for this area. Actually, back then, you could hire on in the plants straight out of high school. Nepotism ran rampant back then, so who you knew was a great application attachment. I submitted several and got no calls. Today’s youth don’t know what work is. If you want to test a person’s determination in keeping a job, let him hire on pouring concrete. Give him some rubber boots and jump in the middle of a form having to use rakes to move the pour. At the end of the day, you’ll know where he stands. I apologize for the meandering.
  11. Texas to the MCWS!
  12. The whole 8 years? What kind of cop-out is that? You got called out for your hypocrisy. Deal with it….Biden.
  13. 6 pitches….2 HRs
  14. Told my wife that same thing yesterday……scored too many runs and probably won’t score tomorrow.
