Thet shyster that started the mold gig in the Ballard vs. FIG deal bought a BIIIIG Texas sized boat and named it "STACHYBOUGHTHIS", clever huh? I bought a Polaris 10' waverunner (goes 50mph stock) and I'm naming it "StachyboughtthisII"!! The gypsy camp boys here on the Island are having a TEXAS sized fish fry tonight. They caught a huge bunch of deep sea trout and reds so we'uns be having a litle down time fun, TEXAS STYLE!! Once I get a copy of the new HO-W version of the old HO-B I'll post it. Seems ol Jose made everyone add an endorsement for mold once their policy renews at 25/50/100% of policy limits, one time offer only. My poor old sick momma is opting for the 100% endorsement so I guess I am going to have to shell out some $$ to help pay it off.Only in Texas! Tx Lloyds policies are a true quagmire of insensible, unstandard, made for litigation contracts I have ever seen having worked in 18 states. My better half informed me the legislature will addresss MOLD in the next session taking up more of our $$ instead of things like chuckholes in the interstates and education.!! Jeez, Ghoust keep your ear to the ground on this since you are so close and let us know the real skinny on it. |

I have been working in Texas for the past month, and all I have to say is good barbecue (County Line is my favorite) and it is too darn hot!
Alas, I will be going to MN Tuesday, some wind and hail up there to take care of. Not too much I am afraid, I think there will be a fair amount of windshield time.

Why heck......
You fellers just calm down and pour yourself another mint julep, especially if you are in Lou-a-vuhl for the hailstorm and not for the Derby.
(I won't argue with those who say this is a waste of good bourbon).
I did not intend to restart a war over Texas food. It must be good stuff: look at all those big belt buckles, pot bellies and big pick-em-up trucks required to haul you around.
One of these days Ghostbuster and I will sponsor an East vs. West chili cookoff and invite everyone (BYOB of course; we neither could afford the bar tab for this crowd).
Now as for what you call barbecue..........

Hold yur hosses now!, for the last year I have fortunate enough to work the best hail storm I've ever worked, (see "Texas Snow")in the photo page and now I am a Mold Buster here in the "Molden Triangle", all in my own country, TEXAS! What other state has 12,000 miles of interstate GOOD roads!!A capitol that is 7' higher, longer and wider than the U.S. capitol, and the legislative right to secede, legally and become its' own country or 4 seperate states. What some folks call bar-b-q east of the Mississippi would gag a maggot with that vinegar pulled pork stuff they call bar-b-q. Ghoust, put a Houston phone book(s) on your box sou you can stand 3 feet higher.! Maybe folks can hear what you're sayin'a lttle bit better. And they say we brag?, no brag, just fact! Gotta go, the mold is waiting. |

Hate to be a picky SOB, but...one of the original picante sauce makers, Pace Foods, made a really good sauce here in San Antonio. Their TV ad used to use the 'New York City' line. Then capitalism reared it's ugly head and they sold out and moved up across the river from 'New York City'.
Just an historical tidbit to chew on. |

We could have all the cat adjusters on the road Fed-ex the road kill to Texas, cleaning our highways and providing more Texans a chance to stay home and work, and also give them a change in the types of road kill available fr fine dining. |

Ya'll ought to get a crowd together down there in Mesquite land and open up an open fired kitchen restaurant specializing in Critters (rhymes with fritters) which the rest of us know as roadkill.
Armadillo, kangaroo, rattlesnake, lizard, and Lord only knows what you'll think of next.....
You Texans are right about one thing; they sure don't make that Pace picante sauce up in New Yawk City.
Heck ya'll don't even know what real BBQ is! |

Huhh, Uncle Tom,...Actually, it is the Phantom that flipped the burgers. Where is he, anyway?
In fact, those hard shell possums, (Armadillos), are what they cook up over at Shanafelts Wrecking Yard every now and then.
Personally. I prefer the Jack-in-Box burgers that taste like properly prepared Kangaroo. Yummmm! For .99 cents, ya can't go wrong. |

Well Mark, where else are you going to get anyone silly enought to do 4 and 5 story pullups in the Carolinas and New England.
Besides If you stop buying beef from South America and oil from overseas, maybe most of the adjusters will go back to ranching and the oil fields. Well that is except for Ghostbuster who is too busy flippin burgers. BTW Ghost are they made of beef or that hard shelled varmint that we all see down here. |

With 26922 licensed adjusters back in Texas, where else could you find work other than out of state? (That's one adjuster for every 774 Texans. If you assume 10% loss experience, that's 77 claims per year per licensed adjuster).
I'm surprised they don't slap a lifetime adjusting license on each and every Texas baby's bottom when they are born.
With the growth of the Texas mold industry, they're going to be needing even more adjusters, lawyers and P.A.'s.
Oh and I forgot to mention, they're also going to be needing more insureds willing to pay higher premiums without filing claims in order to keep the Texas mold Ponzi scheme going ad infinitum.
The circus continues...................... |

Having lived in hotels all over this great nation, I have noticed you cannot stay anywhere (at least where park you outside your room) without seeing Texas plates in the parking lot. After hearing all the comments on how great it is to live in Texas why is it so many Texans work out of state. |
