    OT: Walmart

    If you’re considering stocks and haven’t already purchased DG, you missed the likely forever peak. WM on the other hand? It split a couple of years ago and is up ~70% since. I’d recommend buying on the next rare split and maybe even now. WM is an institution in many towns for better or worse. I...

    OT: Today's Edition of "Can YOU Help Her?"

    I was in high school “over in the 90s” too. And you can bet your a^^ we’re over the rainbow and in anywhere but Kansas, Toto. God bless America. I’m glad I can at least cancel out your vote. Re-read the original post you imbecile. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. I AM saying 17’ing corrupt...

    OT: Today's Edition of "Can YOU Help Her?"

    I knew of at least two comparable scenarios. Teachers met students in the late 70s/80s and were married. Had kids. No one shunned them in the community…at all. Teacher retired respectably as an administrator. His wife (former student) had a role in the district office later in life. Good people...

    OT: Today's Edition of "Can YOU Help Her?"

    Totally unsurprised you feel that way. Have some perspective outside of the last decade for God’s sake. Fact of the matter is, our latest generational bounds are new in comparison to the last 10k years of human history. There was even a time when public schools didn’t exist and neither did these...

    OT: Today's Edition of "Can YOU Help Her?"

    These stories are getting old. Quite frankly, 80% of them wouldn’t have been a crime ~pre-1994. Not calling right or wrong, but these ain’t “Parchman worthy” in my opinion. Society has changed a bit. This wasn’t uncommon not too many years ago. It just didn’t get reported. Without forced...

    As an Eagle Scout before the BSA went tits up, I agree with State’s assessment.

    Ole Miss Baseball

    We’re the little brother who was in eighth grade when our big brother graduated. As soon as he left for college, we get our a^^ beat for all prior generational sins.

    Tuition increase approved by IHL

    1) So as with all things in life that make us better, they prepare. 2) It’s very seldom that a 2.5 GPA pumps out a 32+ on the ACT (or even 28+) and vice versa. Granted, there can be some laziness involved with the asinine nature of most high school curriculums. In those cases, a 28-30+ ACT score...

    That’s a completely accurate hot take. For God’s sake, we measure “physical” athletes by their 40-time, high jump, and bench reps. Why not measure “mental” athletes by their ability to perform when it counts? Accuracy/critical thinking under fire are just as important as general knowledge. “I...

    Understood. I’m at a loss. Like most things with the future, we reward the inferior and the stupid for the sake of inclusion.

    https://www.msfinancialaid.org/mesg/ I fail to see what’s changed? I understand inflation, but the score requirements appear to be identical.
