I don’t know when he “found” his particular brand of Jesus as John Wayne, but it had to have been at a low point in his life since he’s thrown himself so completely into the role of fervent follower/crusader

Holy cats he’s such a prima donna.

Or, a soft bitch. Take your pick.

Definitely not here in TX. We’re growing our population while draining our aquifers and it’s getting hotter.

Counties can create “water conservation districts” but they’re toothless.

Considering how many lost their minds at wearing a mask for Covid, no way people are cutting back on water use.

I don’t know him, of course, but I’ve been aware of him for anfew years (I live in TX) and I think he’s a genuinely good person.

My BiL is retired Dallas PD and always tells us a dog that barks is the best security. His knowledge is anecdotal / passed-down wisdom from other cops, but it makes sense.

I need to catch up. I took a detour and started binging The Beauty (it’s good)

John Candy’s character always makes me laugh in that movie.

Same. I periodically bring out Val’s quote about Sun God robes and little pickles whenever someone stars a sentence with: “I had this weird dream…”

Former human rights lawyer here. The whole point of human rights is that they belong to every single human being.

Coming Down the Mountain from that album is an absolute banger

it’s a Jane’s Addiction album.

Yeah, he’s definitely not a step up. As much as I disliked Crenshaw, he would occasionally do the right thing.

Is this the Tangle guy?

I’m convinced anyone who tries to do “both sides” is more concerned that they are perceived as smart than actually *being* smart.

I used to go to a camp in Minnesota (Camp Lincoln). Before then, I didn’t know you could see the bottom of a lake, I was so used to Texas mud puddles.

Sadly, I didn’t take up fishing until college, so I never got after any of the fish in Lake Hubert.

What area of the country will you be fishing? Curious as to what kind of bass. I’m in North Texas, and it’s just largemouth here. I don’t find them as fun as small mouth.
