Русский корабль - иди нахуй
I agree with both of you in all respects. He conceded this at times in our conversation. I had never given it as much critical thought as I had that night (bad night to do it, too - given the amount of ETOH consumed). My believe was always that is was about conquering more land - mineral rich land - to satiate Russia's appetite under the guise of eradicating Nazis. I had never heard a cogent argument that made me critically think about the perception of provocation as seen from a different perspective. While it was enlightening and I appreciate it for what it was (different perspective) - I didn't agree with it. I see it like you all do.

Русский корабль - иди нахуй
I was at a long time friends place this summer for a pool party for the kids. When it was over we sat around and solved the world's problems. Mostly inebriated. He is a federal law enforcement agent that was part of the SS under GWB and Obama. He transitioned to some other agency I have never heard of after Obama. He has traveled the world and been to some of the worst places and seen the worst things. He is decidedly conservative in many ways. He is college educated. He hustles his ass off. He and his wife own a couple of businesses. They do well for themselves. Not someone I would have thought would have had educated opinions on the Ukraine given his upbringing. I also don't perceive him as someone that has time, these days (full time jobs, three significant side hustles, wife, 4 girls under the age of 16), to stay abreast of the nuance we consume in this thread. At some point our conversation turned to Ukraine. He was adamant that the NATO expansion (or risk of NATO expansion) for Ukraine was a very considerable provocation for Russia. He waxed poetic on it for about 30 minutes. Based on years of traveling and working in the region and other insights from his time working for Presidents that had to deal with the region. I hadn't really encountered people in the wild who have a grasp on the region/war like those of us in this thread (of which I am at the bottom of the knowledge pool). I had plenty of points to assert - some of which resonated. But his general takeaway was - he couldn't fault Russia for going to war with Ukraine. While I disagreed with him then and now, I do think his arguments were compelling enough that I believe reasonable minds can differ on that. Was it a good idea? HELL NO. We both agreed.

Suzanne Simpson, the disappearing San Antonio realtor (UT alum)
Boerne doesn't have a landfill. They have a trash compactor. Seriously. She may have been unloaded there (certainly there is circumstantial evidence of this) - but her body would only be in the compactor for a day or two before being transported to a real landfill somewhere.

He know the Eastland family exactly as you describe it. "Neighbors" - which also means church.

July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
Jeff Ray is defending it at an insurance defense shop. He is a very very very solid lawyer. He will do as good a job as can be done. Mikal will be there at his side and, together, they will put up a virtuous defense.

Texas O-line talk
How much pancake batter would we need to make a difference. I’m not a big cigar but curious. Do we even make pancakes anymore or is that rolled in to the bigger NIL purse?

All Encompassing Mortgage and Real Estate Thread
For the most part. You get a deed when you buy the property that is held “in trust” by the lender until they are paid. They release their interest and the deed is your proof of ownership. The release says they deed - previously held in trust - is now yours.

Are you in Texas. If so, your county clerk should have deed records online that can be searched from your couch. In that search type in your name. Sort by date. Last document you should see is a release. If it’s there the bank has confirmed to the world that you are paid off. I’ve never been lucky or smart enough to pay off a house so I don’t know what the band sends you. But I have looked at a lot of property records and know what a release looks like.

Excellent work again. Fun watching it play out. The very definition of having receipts. Damn
