@Mack_McLain@zacurate Yep. Was the original target in the Wattenberg, and was a gas zone. In the mapped area, PetroCanada drilled it as an oil target in the mid-late aughts. Noble bought PC/Suncor’s position in 1q 2010 and moved it off the reserve report pretty quick.
A show that began in the early '90s with David Letterman offering edgy, anti-establishment... Almost dangerous humor and commentary ended up like this
Nobody killed this show, it committed suicide.
A lot of people are asking why more politicians are not like Ben Sasse.
Because voters will not elect them, that’s why. They may say they care about character, but most don’t vote that way.
Instead they vote party line, ideology, self-interest, or out of pique against a perceived enemy.
How can we expect our leaders to embody higher levels of virtue if a majority of voters don’t make personal character a red line?
It looks like we get the leaders we deserve.
I still find it hilarious that STEVE1989 has eaten several 100 and over year old rations and the thing that got him deathly sick was in date Chinese Rations.
People forget that Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye never put a damn thing into orbit besides their own egos, meanwhile it was chainsmoking rednecks with bachelor's degrees and fighter pilot jocks who got us to the moon on less computing power than a Gameboy
@Johnyalamo@caraathome@CityOfDallas Council makes policy and direction for the city manager, not the other way around. That said, with weak councilmembers comes strong city managers—if you want a strong executive, just change the charter to a mayor/council system and let the voters elect one
@PitchingNinja In hindsight, I’m glad we didn’t go straight to roboumps. Forcing them all through a season or two of ritual humiliation first was the move
For anyone putting loyalty to a person above loyalty to the Constitution, Justice Gorsuch’s remarks should be required reading. His words are a reminder that our highest duty is to the rule of law and the founding principles that define America.
I'm sorry. I think a lot of folks these days are looking at the Obama years with very rose colored glasses.
He was an overwhelmingly polarizing President. Overwhelmingly so. He pushed through very unpopular legislation, he pioneered the use of Executive Orders to sidestep congressional opposition, and he had clear contempt for his political opponents.
You just simply don't have the rise of Trump and right-wing populism in 2016 without 8 years of demagoguery from Obama. You just don't.
