  1. I think MAGA has evolved into something bad, which it isn’t. Who wouldn’t want to make Americas great again? It was a slogan to bring people together after the Obama years divided us. Covid, the impeachments, and the fake Russian collusion did everything to stop that from happening. Biden had the Build Back Better plan. Is BBB a cult? He passed a $4 trillion infrastructure package that made Schumer give a golf salute when he signed it. Can anyone tell me where that money was spent? Supposed to increase wireless coverage in out-of-the-way places. I can’t even get great coverage if I drive outside the city. Where are all the charging stations? Supposed to build thousands and they built 8. How about bridge repairs? No one complains and the BBB cult is satisfied. Spent hundreds of billions of dollars on Ukraine. No one on the left complained. It made them feel good to help the most corrupt country in the world. Simply amazing I will forever be indebted to Donald Trump, if for no other reason, he kept Kamala Harris from destroying this country. I believe in America and hate the fact that I didn’t leave it a better place for my grandkids than what I experienced. Too much indoctrination. Hate me, I don’t care.
  2. Some commie/liberal federal judge will block it. You know, all the Obama and Biden appointees who hate America.
  3. Your naïvety is why your party is being swallowed up. Denial is easily conquered.
  4. This^^^^^^
  5. This is the head of the dem party. You gotta be kidding….. but that’s no joke. That must be the genius party.
  6. I was concerned with the water usage and the acreage needed for these centers. I believe 6 centers are planned for the Houston area alone.
  7. Liar. That’s not what you said. Last response to sirbannedalot.
  8. Yep, what about Biden crime family of thieves?
  9. Really? You think I don’t know how you operate. You have attacked the retirees on multiple occasions. You don’t fool anyone, Mr. chill pill.
  10. Didn’t you forget the Burisma money laundering secured by your idol, Hunter, plus 10% for the big guy? You really have no merits to any of your posts.
  11. Hunter, why does anyone keep posting on a board they have been banned from multiple times? My generation, my parent’s and grandparent’s generations are responsible for many things that made this country the best the world has seen. What has your generation done but complain and crave free stuff? When the communists come for your guns and property, think about me and the generations you so despise.
  12. If you click play, it has a function to increase screen size……easier to read.
  13. Maybe grunt doesn’t describe me well. I was skilled at what I did. I was never a plant employee. Some of our guys were lucky and got absorbed into plant employment. When we lost the maintenance contract, my old manufacturing plant reopened and I returned there, working until I retired. I could complain about missed opportunities, but I am who I am, and it’s been good. Just installed a walk-in shower and deciding on how to trim it out. If your wife is anything like mine, when you change one room, the whole house needs a facelift. Lol
  14. Very impressive. I’m just a grunt, but it takes all kinds to make it work. I’m not sure what happened to DuPont in Beaumont. There was an ammonia facility there because they had an ammonia ship, The American Eagle, that I loaded stores aboard back in the day. The smell would almost knock you down. Now, there is a new ammonia plant under construction across from the prisons on hwy 69. I always wondered who figured out what went where, when looking at all the piping. I guess I found one. I’ve worked with some blueprints for shooting elevations and setting forms, but I don’t think I could tackle a piping print. Lol
  15. My knowledge is very limited to being a sub-contracting scaffold builder who also did civil duties. I picked up what I could as I went along because it was interesting to me. I couldn’t build a scaffold inside a vacuum tower with bubble cap trays without asking about the process. First thing is that they use a vacuum because it takes less heat. It’s been decades since I worked in the plants, so I may be a bit rusty with memory and might make some mistakes. I started at the Texaco plant in Port Arthur. Worked their #3 Cat unit on a shutdown, then transferred to their chemical side and worked maintenance for years. The cyclohexane unit was very small but it was considered a money maker. I formed up several pump containment slabs and some required Chockfast Red, a self leveling acid resistant material that hardened like steel. We did anything maintenance required. There is so much more that I could talk all day, but most people couldn’t care less. It brings back some great memories.
  16. I bet we had a high LOB count tonight.
  17. Great saying. I believe the gouging comes from the individual outlets. On average, they get resupplied 2-3 times a week, so there’s no doubt they received some deliveries of the cheaper priced gas, but their prices didn’t reflect it. Even though it may sound greedy when quoting profits, most people don’t realize how much our entire existence depends on petroleum products. Many moons ago, I worked on a unit that produced cyclohexene, which was then combined with hydrogen to produce cyclohexane. It is then mixed with other chemicals to produce nylon, which is a primary synthetic fiber to make carpet. That blew my mind when those plant workers taught me that. I learned a lot in the plants. Still much more to it than I could learn. Maybe sometime we can discuss cat crackers and vacuum towers. I have limited but interesting knowledge. I try to learn something every day, even at my age.
  18. I liked Arrighetti, but he had some very early exits. We do need pitching more than OFs. Play just now…..Straw is super fast, but not that fast. Lol
  19. Apparently we don’t need him either. I have a hard time accepting a player back on the team who was offered a record contract at the time of his departure.
  20. Google search: The Spectator Index is not a traditional, verified news organization and lacks institutional accountability. It operates with no public newsroom, no named editorial staff, and no transparent fact-checking process. [1] Ownership and Operations: Investigations, such as one by the New Statesman, revealed the X (Twitter) account is operated by an individual without a standard journalistic corporate structure. [1, 2] Data Accuracy: While it posts concise economic and global data summaries, independent fact-checkers have caught the account misrepresenting or exaggerating statistics attributed to bodies like the World Health Organization. [1, 2, 3] Reliability Verdict: It functions primarily as a viral data and news aggregator rather than an authoritative or verified primary research source
