@jessefullen Both of the Feast or Fold episodes were funny! But I wish you more luck so you can have the tasty steak.

@jessefullen That response to biting into the P, B, & Sardine sandwich was priceless…

The U.S. Senate just passed the Social Security Fairness Act by a vote of 76 to 20. Congratulations to all professional fire fighters, who will now be eligible for all of the social security benefits you are owed! It has been a long time coming.

That’s a keeper alright!

After this photo I may as well close up shop because I don't know that I'll ever be able to top this one. This is the H.D. Pearce Bookstore in Runnels City, Texas, circa 1885. It was the actually the first business in Runnels City and, as you can see, also served as the post office. Runnels City was located about 4.5 miles north of the current city of Ballinger.

I just don't even know how to begin to tell you how great I think this image is. AMAZING!

Every year on the anniversary of #DDay, French citizens take sand from Omaha Beach and rub it onto the gravestones of fallen soldiers who gave their lives to liberate Europe.

It gives the letters a golden shine.

They do this for all 9,386 American soldiers buried there.

[Rick Mumey @FirelawTexas]

Remarkable.

I have found to enjoy reading now more than ever. Or listen to books, shall I say. Maybe I’m just getting older and hopefully wiser. Any suggestions from yall? Maybe I will start a Book Club. Encourage your kids to read. #txlege #WalleWorld

Good tough win for @UHCougarMBK. March is what matters but these @Big12Conference games are excellent tests. #ForTheCity #txlege

So would Charles E. Hughes still been Chief Justice from 1930-1941 after leaving the presidency, immediately replacing former POTUS Taft? And if not, how would that have changed SCOTUS during New Deal?

[Duc de Cy-Près @DucPres]

If I could change the result of five Presidential elections:
2012 Presidential Election
1992 Presidential Election
1976 Presidential Election
1964 Presidential Election
1916 Presidential Election

[Rick Mumey @FirelawTexas]

You will never convince me otherwise. Never sat down the entire game. Excitement from start to finish, and the lead changes were unbelievable.

Astros showing Baltimore who they are. Nice win tonight!
