Controversial opinions

Just a matter of time before y'all get that casino approved in Arlington by your new hotel/convention center building...

I think the political will is there this time. North Texans tend to like the Choctaws. Sometimes more than their own good would allow for ($$$).

I certainly hope not - and if it comes up on a ballot, there will be at least two "NO" votes (me and Mrs. HHD).

Chop,

Don't wish that on the people of the Metroplex. The statistics reported are ******** and lies to make it look good.

Typical deal is the management company gets 40%, tribe gets 60%. Much of staff are paid minimum wage or less counting on tips that never come from grannies playing penny slots.

The Indian share then goes to BIA in ABQ. An example is the Coushatta. The tribe percentage is just over $1 million a day. The tribe has fewer than 1000 members. They originally got $900 a month each. That was increased to $1700. Not sure of the amount now.
 
The lack of news from there leads me to the conclusion that the Bermuda Triangle is no longer in operation
 
People who take their kids out trick-or-treating before it's even dark are Cretins.

They are akin to party guests who arrive at your doorstep 30-45 minutes early.

They are usually with very young children and/or need to leave early to go to another neighborhood to met grandma, etc.
 
If you mean the 600HP Bentley that hits 160MPH or the F150/250 King Ranch 4x4, I agree.

So much of the music claimed by the Baby Boomers was actually written and performed by the Silent Generation.

Just a few Silent Generation musicians:
(these were NOT Baby Boomers)


The Beatles (all of them)
The Rolling Stones (all of them)
Bob Dylan
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (all of them)
 
There is nothing and I mean nothing right about folding a fitted sheet
It is an abomination and should be wadded up violently and throw into a linen closet on it's own shelf followed by a muttered curse at its very existence
 
The canned cranberry sauce is tacky, mass-produced, and institutional. But it tastes better than the other kind of cranberry sauce.
 
Valentine's Day -- all about the women (romance, chocolates, flowers, cards)

Thanksgiving Day -- all about the men (large amounts of food, football, and the women clean up the mess afterwards while the men watch football and nap on the sofa or lazy boy)
 
The old clothes dryers were better in that when they were on, you could open them up real fast, throw something in there, and close them up real fast, and they would just keep going without having to be re-started.

It has a lot more sugar. Real cranberry sauce is sour due to lack of sugar.
