    I think the biggest risk of having hordes of unmasked Texans is the increased potential for new COVID variants, but Texas is all for innovation, so...

      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        That's only happening down along the border... everything is fine up here in North Texas.

          Oh, noes! Covid! Something is disingenuous, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

                    LOL at the home of the free:

                    Without anyone touching it, they said their thermostat was changed while they were sleeping, making their home unbearably hot.

                    “Was my daughter at the point of overheating?” English said. “She’s 3 months old. They dehydrate very quickly.”

                    His wife received an alert on her phone soon after that. The family said their thermostat had been changed remotely, raising the temperature of their home during a three-hour “energy saving event.”

                    The family’s smart thermostat was installed a few years ago as part of a new home security package. Many smart thermostats can be enrolled in a program called "Smart Savers Texas." It's operated by a company called EnergyHub.

                    The agreement states that in exchange for an entry into sweepstakes, electric customers allow them to control their thermostats during periods of high energy demand. EnergyHub’s list of its clients include TXU Energy, CenterPoint and ERCOT.

                        Yeah, no kidding... You can just filter the IP address block of EnergyHub to keep them from f'n with your thermostat and still get entered in the sweepstakes. What a bunch of dummies.

                            Ha, Beto. I voted for him once because he was running against Ted Cruz. Never again...unless he runs against Ted Cruz again.

                            I'll vote for Abbott over O'rourke in a heartbeat and I don't even really like Abbott. I do like how he finally handled Covid after his dumb initial responses.

                              Beto just figured out he is running for governor in Texas...

                              Beto O'Rourke backtracks on gun confiscation vow

                              Former presidential and U.S. Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke just isn’t very good at the whole politics thing.

                              A skilled politician would know how to make his flip-flops less obvious.

                              O’Rourke, who is running for governor in Texas, said this week he has no intention of confiscating certain types of firearms from lawful gun owners.

                              “I’m not interested in taking anything from anyone,” the Democratic candidate said this week during a campaign stop in Tyler, Texas. “What I want to make sure that we do is defend the Second Amendment.”

                                Ha, love that guy. If he’s the den nominee then it’s an easy vote for Abbott.
