As I said and agree, I never understood that move. It just didn't pass the smell test for me nor most of the everyday citizens. But unfortunately that is nothing new, on a daily basis I continue to be shocked at what politicians from all parties actually say out loud in public. At times, you...

I think the characterization of trumpers is not fully true here. If you like some of his policies does that make you a trumper? As a moderate, I pay a social price because I am not anti trump and to me that is utterly ridiculous. No president in my lifetime has ever been perfect for me and I am...

Can someone remind me why we put up with the nutjob running Turkey? He is not a good guy either. Are any of them????

I never could comprehend that one either. One of the worst decisions ever.

As you know mine graduated from there and was actually back there a few weeks ago in that vicinity. I go there weekly, scary to be honest. Tom

I give Austin police credit. Responded in 55 secs to the threat. Terrible tragedy that could have been even worse. Tom

All confirmed. Senegal national. Horrible. I know that area quite well and Buford’s is a well known watering hole. I am having dinner near there tomorrow night. Tom

I think Iran made a really bad calculation in attacking the US interests in neighboring States. I think they are finding out that these Countries want normalcy, not continued terror and bad relations. I am hopeful the next wave of US/Israeli targets are even more surgical. Tom

Yup, I hope it works too. I hope the job can be finished. Tom

I believe what happened today was a result of Iran's actions and doing. They have never I mean ever in my lifetime come to a negotiation table without a unilateral Death To America and Death To Israel mantra. They just have not and I am talking about their leadership, not the Country. That...

Getting away from news Here is some good. Iron Maiden nominated for the rock hall again. I would think they have to get in this time. There is so much bad press on the rock hall for oversights lately. They literally are iconic to the point that their mascot Eddie is in toy stores worldwide...

Gotcha, I was lumping it all together. To me the whole subject hits a nerve and I am not defending Trump. He to me is a guy where I like a lot of his policies, question his implementation of some (or his advisors I should say) but quite frankly his ego/delivery of same drives me nuts. I...

Boxer series also.

Ronnie Van Zant nailed that one.

Your last statement is not a fair one. The US spends and continues to contribute more foreign aid than any other country. Additionally, in certain instances we are well within our rights in getting some return on our investment, we are not the World’s piggy bank, not even the US can afford that.

Annoying. Paid disruptors in local politics. Spent my week with data center projects in public meetings in local counties. 90 percent of the so called local citizens who spoke against were not actually local with most not even from the State. A reasonable person has to start asking what the...

Well we got 3.5 inches. Still cancelled my Monday morning flight on Sunday before one flake fell. My wife told me mail not until Tuesday and then every other day this week. Asphalt showing by 9am Monday morning. Broken State. And yes our State seeming puts illegal aliens first too in a lot of...

I can answer for him - San Antonio, admittedly it is pretty hot there and muggy. Personally, I like North Austin and suburb/rural Dallas. TD

On to another topic from my morning reading that I just find nutso, actually 2 things: Admittedly I didn't follow the Olympics because frankly, for me, it doesn't interest me, that said, here are 2 IMO head scratchers: A. Men's Hockey - the poor sportsmanship of Canada - the comments in the...

Mike Agree. And here is the best irony - the air conditioning is cheaper to run in Texas than in Maryland!!!!!!!!!!! That is the kicker for me. We have narrowed it down to Texas or Florida and it is going to come down to my better half. She really likes Florida beaches. We will keep the...
