@Supersonic_Red Each generation has their subset. Some think this makes them ‘special’ because they experienced life differently or have a unique perspective. Everything you described could be early Gen X as well. Especially if raised by an early Boomer.

@TxStormChasers Don’t care but set it and leave it alone.

Great job here discussing the biomechanics of Lindsey Vonn’s run today and how she had to compensate for her torn left ACL.

When you understand the biomechanics, and physics of the body and subsequent injuries that change those, then you can say confidently, without a doubt that Lindsey Vonn’s left ACL tear played a role in today’s crash.

School taught us that C is average.
Straight A’s mean you’ll be successful in life.
Not necessarily.
Some of the most prepared people for adulthood were C students.
Not lazy.
Not incapable.

Just navigating a system that rewarded compliance more than capability.
Grades are great at measuring one thing:
How well you do school.

They are terrible at predicting:
Who can adapt
Who can recover
Who can communicate
Who can lead when there’s no rubric

C students learn those skills early—because they have to.
They fail sooner.
They adjust sooner.
They stop waiting to be told what “good” looks like.

Psychologists call it desirable difficulty.

Life calls it preparation.
And before someone says it, yes, many A students are wildly successful.

This isn’t A vs. C.
It’s a metrics problem.
Grades correlate with success in structured systems.
They don’t cause success in an unstructured world.

Some A students succeed because they also have:
resilience
relational intelligence
risk tolerance
adaptability

Those traits, not grades, help them succeed.

And many C students excel because they’ve been practicing those skills their whole lives.

In fact, two of the most successful investors on Shark Tank—a show built entirely around real-world success—were not top students.

Daymond John was an average student and dyslexic.
He didn’t do great in school.
He did great with people, timing, and opportunity.

Barbara Corcoran was a straight-D student and dyslexic.
School didn’t play to her strengths.
Failure didn’t break her.
It built confidence, persuasion, and grit.

None of them lacked intelligence.
They lacked alignment.

This isn’t anti-school.
And it’s not anti-achievement.

Because life doesn’t ask:
What was your GPA?

It asks:
Can you adapt?
Can you communicate?
Can you recover when things don’t go as planned?
Can you lead without being handed the answers?

A lot of C students already can.
And that might be the most underrated preparation of all.

@KfdxTobin No. Context does not matter.

@johnrich Personal choice on gauge but don’t skimp on ammo. 3” #4’s or #5’s. If shooting an over/under use a full and modified choke. I just returned from ND chasing pheasants. Great trip!

FSU QB Tommy Castellanos given a brain injury here by Stanford safety Mitch Leigber.
Amazing how good college FB is at distracting from the TBI.
Divert the camera, debate the penalty, don't say brain injury, clap as he stumbles off.

Texas A&M HC Mike Elko said on his weekly radio show that the program has started a Friday support group for the guys who are out injured, where they can all come together and sit down with the department’s mental health professionals and talk about where they’re at mentally each week.

@traitzaldain Furthermore if it were channeled directly to the ORG theoretically they would be more forthcoming with payouts and long term sustainability of their product. Their product is not the production but the anglers themselves.

[Jason Maresh @JasonMaresh]

@traitzaldain Which would be fine if the anglers were directly employed by the league or under some form of employment ’contract’. Neither of which is in play. What’s left is insecure business practices by an org being left behind by technology.

[Jason Maresh @JasonMaresh]

@traitzaldain What ‘rule’ does this violate? You and your husband operate as independent contractors.

@HilltownD @LeadingReport Your emphasis of study in constitutional law is from where?

Cam Schlitter's average velocity freshman year of college at Northeastern was 88.8mph. By his junior year, it was 90.4mph.

Last night, it was 98.9mph.

So maybe don't worry if your 15-year-old son isn't already committed to a SEC program?

We have a big problem in Loving County Texas. People are moving in and trying to overthrow the government!

Evening message after a long drive back to Hill Country.

Whatever happened during OUR ‘Special Session’?

The roll up:

OUR Property Taxes will go up.

OUR Tax Dollars will pay for lobbyist to lobby them to raise your taxes even more.

OUR $32 Billion in over collected taxes were NOT returned to you.

OUR Government GREW by 40% or more.
YOUR Schools will still FUND DEI with your tax dollars.

OUR ELECTIONS are still manufactured with NO remedy.

OUR Electrical Infrastructure is still collapsing.

OUR Power companies STILL will sell electricity across state lines in the terawatts at a nickel more per kilowatt hour and turn your electricity off to do it to make a buck instead of Texas power companies being forced to serve TEXANS FIRST.

OUR Houston Harris County government STILL is raping you for taxes and pissing it off on social programs while a massive flood control infrastructure is needed more than ever and not a damn thing is done about it.

These clowns are trying to destroy our freedoms right in our face.

I’m hearing you Texans.

You are worth so much better!
