Refresh my memory. Didn’t Gus and Woodrow steal those cows in Mexico before taking them on the drive??
If caught by the Mexican law wouldn’t they have been hung or shot or whatever form of capital punishment the Mexicans were using at the time?
correct. Hell ,Pedro Flores would've killed them.
Everyone seems to be forgetting that Jake went along with three or four murders, horse thieving, and the posthumous burning of the sodbusters. That was a particularly heinous act (based on the reactions of Gus, Call et al.). I think Jakes "accessory" to these offenses crossed a line for Gus and Call- two men who were no angles themselves.

does anyone else find CFA food underwhelming? The service is top notch and its not that the food is bad. I've just never though it lives up to the hype. Maybe I'm just not a chicken sandwich person.

I never once said to give up or not vote. You can vote three times in every election if you like. But you aren't going to change anything. The government will still surveil us- directly or indirectly. And the entities that make money form it will participate in it and propagate it. That's why we can't change it. At least not on our lifetime. We may interrupt it- briefly. But we aren't going back.

it doesn't matter who you vote for. They are all going to support this. First, they'll get paid to do so. Second, if they oppose it, they'll likely get run out of office. You aren't going to defeat the people who are making money off of this. And they're all in on it together. Even the ones you vote for that you JUST KNOW are on your side. :lol:

The other option is not allowing the government to collect data and monitor citizens.
good luck with that. I'm all for it, but we are so beyond that at this point I think its futile to complain. Your phone, PC, credit card companies, Amazon, Google, Meta, apps, etc are all monitoring you. We have little hope of anonymity or privacy at this point.

no complaints here. I'm just happy it went around me. I had over four inches of rain Tuesday in my area. I didn't want more. That's why I'm hoping all the remnants go North.

First off, shes completely improperly dressed for getting horseback. Need something with some heels for the stirrups. LIKE frickING BOOTS.
Second shes completely out of posture- leaning forward and toes down. If you want hte horse to stop,sit deep in the saddle. Leaning forward encourages the horse to accelerate (in some circumstances). And pulling back won't do much to a supple horse. Needs to lose some weight or stick to the horses outside of Walmart for riding.

looked like all the action was further east than predicted. Don't know why that was, but thats what it looked like on my phone radar app all afternoon/night. I think it just ended up tracking further east than anticipated.

Steve Capahoweveryouspellit said storms could "train" over the area once the low passed or was passing through. Is this what we are seeing in Avoyelles?
Asking because I'll be relieved if its occurring further north than anticipated.

I'd rather ask the officials who exactly wants this? Why is BREC spending money on something most of the actual taxpayers oppose? Put that money into something else. Or, here is a novel idea, save it!!

Nope. Unless I'm missing a major piece of this entire forecast puzzle, I believe this is all supposed to fall between tomorrow and Thursday morning.
not trying to argue about it, but seems there are conflicting forecasts out there. is this what your source showed?

didn't all that rain fall within about 24 hours, as well? Current totals are spread out over 5-7 days.
Not exactly the same.
