Seriously we’re on a 6 game losing streak. Really bad this season.

just need some seasoning

I love a great defensive performance but I hate to see them wasted.  The Texas defense played their butts off but the offensive play calling was trash and the receivers all need to get eye exams this week.  

Texas A&M has problems but some of those calls (or non-calls) were garbage.

I agree


might have been a better outcome if our receivers had made a catch a few more times


I hope TCU gets into the playoff


they would surprise a few folks

I really don't like TCU. Their M.O. this year has been to knock the other team's QB out of the game.

I'm surprised that they didn't go after Ewers. Maybe they thought that Card would be a bigger threat.

I'm starting to think the deep Ewers to Worthy ball is like Shaquille O'Neal shooting free throws.
I'm positive they work on it in practice. I'm sure they can nail it dead cold every time there.
In a game, they're nowhere near each other.

Ewers did not look sharp at all in that game, the bits that I watched.  He had receivers open, but could not connect.

Well, I'm about to jumpstart my side business.  I'm not sure if any of you remember but earlier this year I went (back) into the family business.  That didn't work out so well, and now I'm back on my own. 

I have to say I was pretty stunned at the way things went down, and wasn't sure if I would continue with my stand-alone business or not.  I took a few months to reflect on it, and now I have decided to re-invest in my own business which involves getting some new equipment and taking on some larger jobs. 

I've never felt better about a decision.  I'm risking a lot, but I feel as if if I don't do it now I never will. 
Drilled our first well as a company using a friend's equipment (I'm helping his crew get experience, he's new to the biz).  100' deep, 40-60 GPM, maybe a little more.  Feeling pretty good about it.  I've got some equipment coming in next year, but this is identical to what we're getting so it was a good experience using this setup.

What happens to the "dirt" displaced during drilling?

You will have a pile of cuttings.  Sometimes you dig an earth pit and the cuttings remain in it and are buried at the end of the job.  We used what is called a mud system that uses a shaker and desanders to separate out the clay from the sand, so we had a pile of cuttings left over.

So the drill brings up the "cuttings" which end up next to the site?
