I doubt very seriously that the U.S. Supreme Court will allow California government to collect taxes on Florida citizens unless they are making the income in California.

I have only done business for the railroad in California. I never fell in love the the West coast. They talk about great weather, then comes the fires, the mud slides etc. They can keep it.

Never underestimate stupid Sir.... They will try in any event.

Someone please tell communists they are naked....
 
They will make it work somehow. What makes it even more complicated is that it's a net worth tax, not an income tax. I didn't read the entire article on Fox but if passed it'll only apply to billionaires beginning in 2024. 1 1/2% tax on net worth. Beginning in 2026 a 1% tax will apply to net worth of 50 million to 1 billion. Over 1 billion will still be taxed 1 1/2%. An accounting nightmare.

Wow. We aren't America anymore. We're just China or medieval Europe a couple hundred years or so after a peasant revolt.... Wait...
 
I keep these on hand at all times. Today for lunch I had Season Brand Sardines in 100% olive oil. One can has 200 calories, 22g of protein, 28% calcium and 1,700 mg of Omega-3

Eating healthy and feeling good.

Taught my daughter to eat these (to my wife's disgust and horror LOL) when she was just 3 1/2 years old. Called them baby salmon (cause she loves some grilled salmon) and she even asked for me to send them IN HER SCHOOL LUNCH when she was 7 yrs old! I was SHOCKED but of course PROUD. I told her they'd be too messy (and saved her the stigma that might have made her never want to eat them again). I just envisioned that scene from Uncle Buck where MC asks the kids at lunch, "anyone want to trade?"

We still eat them together when mommy's not around, so she doesn't get the dry heaves. :D

Isn't that an apt description of the state and their famous women in general?

I remember when they were among the leaders in promoting natural health, organic and clean foods, low pesticides, recycling, freedom, and getting out into the great outdoors. Their women were beautiful and natural then.

Now they don't know what women are and aren't. The famous ones are more plastic than the garbage island in the pacific, and they want to shoot drugs, heavy metals, and chemicals into everyone regardless of how they feel about it. Talk about hating your enemy so much you become them. Cali is the poster child

I pull out the bones on the mackerel. Never could do sardines. (Just me... I think watching my grandpa eat them turned me off.) Bless my Grandpa, I was with him when he died, I was on leave from the Army at the time. Had to be about 1984 but it was a disgusting site watching him eat sardines out of a can with crackers....

My grandpa carried a can in his overalls. He taught me to appreciate them. The man was well into his 80's and still breaking horses and teaching mules to plow. I never saw him eat any junk food. No chips, soft drinks or candy. His was a different generation.

He raised about everything we ate. Sardines were a store bought treat. And Vienna sausages. They were really special.

My grandpa died at either 72 or 74. He was a off-acting sort in ways you'd only understand if you knew him. He did things differently and not in a good way. I loved him though...

Lewis Teague...

He was wearing a carbide lamp. (He gave me one when I was young. I loved striking that lamp with a little spit to keep it going.) He liked to act liked he worked in the mines but as I was told by a few, he never did. Kind of grifter but he was good to me mostly except for a couple instances.
 
Mention you don't wear skinny jeans and they might launch a DNS attack on RR. Better watch out

Yeah the thing got ignorant that I was making fun of basketball players wearing pink to promote breast cancer awareness and that it affected my manhood or something along those lines. I told him I could yell, type in caps, or a number of things to bring awareness but me wearing pink was not an option. Whew, you'd of thought I talked about his momma...

I told him to stop trying to label me and start labeling him/itself and he'd have more to do and it would definitely keep him gainfully employed or something like that. I guess it got the hint as it seems it stopped...
 
Great win by the Cats.

Can you believe the Vandy played tough defense for 40 minutes and only got called for 5 fouls? UK got 2 free throws. Wow.
Yes, saw that unusual stat. Two free throw attempts by Oscar. Rechecked box score on another site to ensure FTs were correct. Unreal. Game was also played at a fast pace.

Very nice road win.
 
Good morning D

Enjoying a strong black cup of coffee under the stars. It is a pleasant 62° and we will see 81° by this afternoon. The skies are clear and you can see bright stars which is a favorite pastime of mine in the early morning hours. I like to "star gaze" and since we live in a sparsely populated area we do not get the city lights to block them out. So on a clear night you can see without a problem. It is best to find an isolated, no lights around beach and look out over the water.

Looking forward to the SEC - Big 12 Challenge. Some great games including Texas v. Alabama and of course the big one, UK - Kansas. I like our and the SEC chances.

Trust all are well and in good spirits

Good morning from ATX. Currently 41°F with light clouds, Warming to 57°F later. Feels more like a central Texas winter.

What a performance last night. Where has this Cats team been? Just 9 turnovers on 56% FG shooting, Aggressive play. Wowza. Loved it.

Looks like I'll head back to work soon, possibly as soon as Friday or next Monday. I'm also exploring retirement options.

Wishing you fine gents an awesome day.

Great news Austin. I would seriously consider retiring if I were in your shoes. I found that when I retired I could make money consulting and work as I dictated. I was able to work 100% from my home, no travel and work my hours. I insisted on no travel and no office to go to. I traveled enough for one lifetime.

I usually knocked of at 12:00 noon (at noon I turned on Rush LImbaugh so no work for me) and was able to make 6 figures a year. I could select my work and turn down what I did not want. The opportunities are there when one has the talent you have.

The best to you in your decision. The D is pulling for you.
 
Well I am using an HP desktop that is about to crash on me. I have had it 14 years and it has been a great one but it is out of date now and freezing up. Firefox is doing it constantly.

The computer runs 8.1 windows and you can not get updates anymore. So it is obsolete I guess. I have another desktop, Dell, that is one year old and is a little more powerful than this one.

I best transfer my documents, photos, music, etc. and do it quick. I have a lot of stuff on it. This old boy is about to bite the dust.

Morning D-Legionnaires!

33° this morning with a high of mid 40's expected. Did not get the amount of snow predicted, only about 1/2 inch yesterday so it will all be gone by this afternoon. Monster loved it though; she laid around and played around in it for a good part of the day.

Good game last night as the Cats have won 4 straight. A win against Kansas this weekend should get us back to the top 25. A couple of weeks ago I would not have given us a chance for this game but now, 60-40 maybe even better chance since Kansas has lost 3 straight. Only caveat is that Kansas has lost 3 straight.

You good folks enjoy your day and Oh yeah @AustinTXCat , come on in the retirement pool, the water is fine.

God Bless.

Song of the day for your computer and the last basketball conquest with hopes of continued success.

 
Well Disney is shutting down Splash Mountain. Cancelled and closed. This was my children's favorite ride but in the year 2023 it is suddenly racist. It has a Song of The South theme and we can't have that can we? Anything Southern has to go in today's America.

I wish Disney World had never come to this state. They are not worth it.

No More Splash Mountain At Disney
