TexTech Free

First off, my screen name. I am a Texan working in a technical field. I did NOT attend Texas Tech. I went to a real university in Texas. Born and grew up in Houston, then spent about 24 years in Austin, back to Houston, and then in Indiana, first time to live outside of Texas. Back to Austin ten years and now 26 months (as of late August, 2021) in Miami, FL. Work keeps me moving around. I am now on my way to North Carolina. While only living in three states, I have passed through or visited 35-40 of the lower 48 states. I have missed the Big Sky country (Dakotas, Wyoming, Montana) and upper New England states. As should be obvious from my comments, I am a yellow dog Democrat with views on social justice based on the teachings of all the great religious teachers. I love music of most types. Not opera. I can tolerate some C&W. Have heard very little rap I can tolerate. My music is traditional Blues and 60s-70s rock. Also like classical and easy listening.

    Yeah, once the suits decided the news division should be a profit center instead of a cost center, the quality of news really went downhill.

    I would honestly be interested in hearing some of the anti-American propaganda spread by the Left. I can’t think of any. And please don’t patronize me and tell me to just read anything the left says. That does not answer my question. You should be able to come up with something since you make such an absolute statement. And if you can’t back it up, please stop the misleading statements.

    Right now my body is battling to see if I get a hip or knee replaced first. I periodically have problems with my left hip and both knees. Luckily, I don’t think I am that close to needing surgery yet.

    Now there is a very old reference. Almost as old as I am.

    Your [love] of [former] President Trump shows how well the media has fed you propaganda. Fixed it for you.

    I say the same thing sometimes but then am reminded that there are thinking people out there who may need to be educated on the facts. There are always some between the sane and the insane who might benefit from what I hope was an insightful comment.

    If this is stress relief, I hate to think how he would be if he didn’t vent on these video games.

    Would you be so kind as to tell me which wind or solar project involved clearing a forest. I might like to write a letter of protest where that was done.
