re: Stop Electing Women to Positions of Power

I have no problem expressing my concerns with females in certain positions of power in front of my mother or wife. In many cases they would agree with me. Some of this comes from a Southern Baptist background. Part of it comes from an understanding of history.

Benoit Benjamin went to Creighton because their coach was Willis Reed who was also from NorthLa. Evidently Reed did a good job of convincing him he could personally develop him as a big man.

One that I wished we would have got was Joey Brown from Morgan City. He was a 4 year starter at Georgetown, 90-94, who averaged about 10 points and 6 assists a game. We had some studs when he was coming out though with Chris Jackson and Mo Williamson.

This really doesn’t hurt him for the mean time, but to have censure from the home state is a bad sign for his reelection in a few years.

Now that they know who she is I’m sure they will contact any remaining family to determine if they knew she was pregnant, and who the father may be.

Gibson’s Donuts is awesome. If you tell them it’s your first time they’ll throw a donut at you. :lol: The cake style donuts are my favorite. As mentioned Gus’s Fried Chicken is really good. There are a few around Memphis metro with the original out in Mason. There’s a good burger joint called Dyers in Collierville. Been around a long time.

A lot of people don’t realize this, but Jack Hunt was a rare exception in his family that didn’t go to Georgia Tech. His older brother played football for GT, and Jack’s nephew will be the 5th straight generation to go and play either football or basketball there.

Sadly, it gave us an accurate look at what these kids grow up like. The families only look at them as a potential cash cow. A high percentage never make it past the collegiate level, and they’re not smart enough to at least take advantage of a free education. It’s depressing, but it’s the sad reality.

I think the only thing we could do would be to destroy infrastructure with the hope that the people rise up due to the collapse of everything.The other option is arming groups like the Kurds and let them do internal damage creating more instability on the ground. This has a bad track record though.

We are trying to negotiate with people who don’t even understand what a truce is.

Apparently it is long enough to reach the heart of a pretty good sized 17 year old. I’d still call it a pocket knife, but that doesn’t mean it’s not lethal.

If this looks like it will pass Silicon Valley will clear out. TX, TN, SC, and FL will continue to boom. This is such a bad idea even Gavin Newsom is against it.

I really don’t understand these people. We have a small group of people that are against the one in Ruston too. 200+ jobs at $17+ an hour starting. Not to mention they are going to have other businesses open around them bringing even more jobs.
re: Christy with Sydney Sweeney on Amazon Prime
Posted by Demonbengal on 6/16/26 at 9:09 pm to Purple Spoon
I started this thinking I would turn it off, but made it through. Sweeney has some legitimate acting skills. She also did a good job transforming physically into a thicker frame. If you are trying to watch this for Sweeney’s looks don’t bother. Some of these fighters today who complain about pay need to shut their mouth.

Bargatze is in a weird place. He grew up almost certainly in a conservative southern family, but has lived in NYC and done the comic scene on the east coast for years. I would guess he is conservative, but he had dodged politics like the plague. I think as long as he doesn’t delve into it he’ll be okay, and stuff like this won’t really hurt or help him.
