pop Coming up at seven latest on the MAVs. I would like to get
Dingo's thoughts on the on the Cowboys. Sure loss near when and whatever else
is on Ingo's mind for sports, But I like calling it a near wind.
Yeah, it was a near wind. It felt like that that more
than a lost to me. Well, that that's some hedgy stuff been holding
on to and of course as we teach yesterday, thirty seconds of twist notes.
Do they find the man on the loose in your neighborhood? I don't
know. They can't report on it because he's sixteen. Kevin had a man
hunt. You got a real cavalcante sitch in Wes Richardson. Yeah really as
a high school kid, I believe, what do you do? Bad things?
Well, the info is still coming in. If I is still coming
in with via next door app a lot of speculation, please tell me the
wine sipping true crime blasters. You know, I will not participate in Twitter
fights, Facebook arguments, but man, I will fire off the next door
you will bitch out. Yeah, dude, I love trolling people on next
door. Okay, let's find these accounts. I want to hear. It's
so fun interaction history. Put my name on it. Yeah, give me
a minute, and your name's on there. Oh yeah, and you're okay.
This lady says I need a new water heater. Any suggestions, and
I'll say, I don't know, look it up and is it gonna laugh
emoji? Or then the sub threads on that being a d and insensitive and
mean, this isn't helpful Kevin. Kevin, let me pull up some next
door but they don't know fights that I've gotten, Dude, prep that for
like tomorrow. It's a whole segment, truly. I mean it's a whole
It's like a monthly segment, dude, because you could just look up best
next Door app wars. There's a Twitter account for it. Yeah, but
like the actual specific stuff to our neighborhoods, I absolutely find stuff all the
rag daily, whether it's an animal that was seeing it's there's my god,
wild animals. That's that's my own. That's my number one snake. Because
I will post if there's a lost animal or you know, a loose dog
or whatever, I will post a picture, give its location. It's nice
and just say hey, if this is your dog, it's out. Or
I've found dogs before and kept them in my backyard until the owner shows up.
It's just a thing that I'm happy to do, and I think that
it's a great service for that. But boy, the op ed pieces that
will be written just about the fact that you're trying to provide information. That's
when I get into fights is when they abuse the thread to insert their editorial
comments about how people need to look after their pets better. All right,
Granny, That's why I protect myself time and place. Someone bitching about someone
in your neighborhood growing a pumpkin patch in their front yard. Here's one.
This is just this is type of stuff that I'll I'll get into for no
reason, probably because I'm I don't know, absent minded, because the day
is largely filled with brain fuck. Linda writes looking for a pool person who
knows their stuff and can speak English to help me reinstall some pool equipment.
And this is We're out for no good reason, just because I'm looking for
action. I'll go. Are you insinuating that all people knowledgeable about pools are
Mexican? Okay, so jump in there Hispanics. What does she mean that
can speak English? What's she's saying there? Because she needs help and she
wants to Her name is Linda, Well, Linda wants to be involved in
the installation of the pool plump. We can leave out the English thing though,
and it's Linda. We know what language you speaking, Linda? What
communication is important to Linda? You know Linda does mean beautiful in Espanol?
Wow? What does Kevin meaning espanel? It means Kevin. All right,
it's time for the most important thing in the world. Oh no, of
course, does it mean something, Yeah, it's what it means in English
handsome and beloved, Wake up, beloved? Is that really what it means?
It's time to get your stupid ass out of what is Kevin means fans?
Yeah, it's Spanish, I don't know, in English Irish roots,
Yeah, derived from the name keo cowi mean Irish c a o i m
h i n cow you mean, which originated from the elements com meaning handsome.
Wow. Daniel means biblical person. Oh no, sin? Oh Daniel?
You know what sin Daniel means? Sin? Yeah? No, Daniel
is a Christian boy name. You're gonna be a buttonheads with me if you're
a sinner, because do you know what Michael means angel? Dude? It's
bad? What the name Michael is a Hebrew origin and means addict. No,
no, it's good. Does it mean it means? It means a
cocaine fan, only only on weekends now and only after dusk. This is
so I'm so lame for me to read. But it does mean who is
like God or gift from God? Dude, that's Daniel. Okay, so
I'd say that's pretty cool. Implementary Daniel means God is my judge. Okay,
so Theniel's bad. God is Mike judge. That makes more sense my
website. What does Michael mean? Michael name meeting? Let's see if Jamis
is in there. That's a little modern. What does jamies mean in English?
I guarantee you nothing there. It means, uh, gets into movies
for free, gets into movies for free. Yahweh may protect. There you
go, yahweh may protect. Where do you see that at Internet dot com?
Where you get that at? Let's vote? Uh? Yeah, the
most important thing in the world today is is election day here in our great
state of Pears. And I bet people here and that don't even know that.
I wasn't aware until you brought it, right. I knew that I
considered stopping off my local library. Then I really right after the show,
Oh you considered it, but that hasn't happened yet, so you're still considering
it. That's right after the show. I'm going right after the show,
Yeah, I'm doing it. But then I realized I don't know what I'd
be voting for. Is that do anything for the greater good. Well,
that's why my key's here light old civic shale, friend of Jesus or whatever.
Jesus's best friend, Michael, You're named the Honda Civic Shale for what
you drove years back last year until I signed a deal here because your election
intel. Dude, I'm the one of the most gifted political minds in Okay,
yep, that's what you need to know. No, I think it's
true. It's weird because it's it's everything so polarizing whatever, and we're all
worked up, always simmering somewhere in the right under the surfaces politics, and
you know it matters to so many people, Yet many are just unaware that
a massive election is today, you know, because everyone's saving it for next
year. Yeah, saving it from next November for Trump Biden to where we
can go nuts. But yeah, isn't it weird? Like are we political
or not? We're all fake political. We're taught we're top level surface political.
But this is the real crap. There's fourteen proposed changes to the state
constitution, Like this matters. We're political to the extent of whatever we can
memorize and regurgitate from whatever news outlet We watch. Yeah. Whatever we can
yell at our ants about, it's just not you know, so things like
this, and I think part of it is they're just designed to confuse morons
like us and disenfranchise us from even really caring or voting. And then the
people who do really care and have these bat bills like all right, here
we go, and they just go and vote like crazy whatever direction they want,
and all they have to do is confuse the rest of us and sort
of loosely discourage you to vote, and then things change the way they want
it to change. But there is something on the ballot this time that I
have a direct thing with, and I'm like, all right, I'm doing
it. I'm going to vote for this. And it's odd because again there's
fourteen proposed changes in the state constitution and the thing I'm going to vote for
goes against kind of how I normally vote. I don't want to get whatever,
right, Yeah, I tend to go in there and even if I'm
confused, I vote for things that I believe are for the greater good,
even if it's not necessarily great for me individually. You know, that's the
idea. At least a lot of people don't do that, I know,
and whatever is best for business and yes, and that's fine too, whatever,
I don't care. But I if I go and I'm confused by something,
I'm like, all right, this helps schools. Yeah, I like
funding schools. This helps parks and DFW. Yeah, I want to fund
parks. And that's all probably libs stuff, you know, because that's money
that's being allocated from something else. Whatever. But I'm actively going in tonight
and putting my red outfit on and voting for something that is not what I
normally would do. And in my case it's proposition four. And I have
all these propositions and I can read any of them and you won't know which
side you're supposed to be on. Here him with the props prop one.
I want to hear you think, and then yes or no? Should the
right to Should the right to engage in farming, ranching, timber production,
horticulture and wildlife management be protected? Yeah? Protecting that's what you get.
Should that right be protected? Yes? Absolutely? I like protecting rights.
I do too, But I mean unpack that a little bit, lift the
layers back, and it might reveal truly what that means. Protected means perhaps,
I don't know, ensuring that that timber can now freely knock down every
single but of course timber production must be protected. Well, I don't know
how I'm going to build houses without this timber. Right, Oh, that's
a lumber well. And you also have hot button topics included oil in that
it would take on a completely different meaning to a lot of people. Well,
is oil in any way under those I don't know. Yeah, I
don't know. I heard farmer and I said support yeah, right, surface
level. Yeah, And I'll go vote yes for that today right after the
show at the library. Prop three, Should the Legislature be prohibited from passing
a law that imposes an individual wealth or net worth tax? Sounds terrible?
Should the legislator be prohibited? And then it's all like yes or no.
I don't know, it's direction I'm going with this, I'm been going.
Can I choose not to vote on that one? It's like having a conversation
with Saturday Night Live ghost of John Lennon. I'm already confused because you skip
number two, well, fourteen, I don't think we need to go through
all of them. What's number two? All right, Kevy? I need
to know I'm going to vote right after the show. Prop too, Should
cities and counties be allowed to give childcare businesses property tax breaks? Care?
Well, why'd you want me to? Should cities and counties be allowed to
give childcare business property tax breaks? So? I think I want childcare businesses
to be better off because don't typically property taxes go to supporting schools. Well,
childcare is kind of connected in that family, and if you, I
think it would behoove them to have a tax break for the properties that your
kids are, you know, then they can get but then there's probably more
information. Well, then they can get the name brand juice boxes instead of
the generics. Yeah, they don't need to drink Capri fun anymore. Yeah,
all right, which brings us to the big dog for me. Proposition
four. Should the homestead exemption from school property taxes be increased to one hundred
thousand from forty thousand. That's the one I'm blowing on. Don't understand it
now? You could find a big breakdown of this, I'm sure somewhere,
and I will. But I was told by people who helped me with my
home finance because I've worked hard for my homestead exemption, which has proves that
you own the house, you live there at your homestead, your property tax
and shouldn't be going up at the same rate that if you have all these
rental properties investment properties am in and I screwed up and it took me years
to make sure my home was listed as my homestead. So that's why my
property tax were shooting through the roof. And every January I'm paying like thirteen
thousand dollars, which guts me. No matter how much work I put in
for the entire year, I cannot lob off a check that's almost fourteen thousand
dollars in January. It brings me back to zero. And then I worked
a whole year whatever, So I sort of fixed that, I think I
did. I'm now listed as a homestead exemption. I think it's somewhat limited,
but from what I understand about that one, yes, I want to
key that one. I think if I vote yes, could save me about
twenty five hundred bucks on my property taxes every year. Well, if you
vote yes, if I vote yes, read that one more time. Should
the homestead exemption from Should the homestead exemption from school property taxes be increased to
one hundred thousand from forty thousand. So do I want to pay less in
my property taxes every year? Yes? Now where's that money? Where was
it going? They're only there's like ten things that make up your property taxes.
One of them was school, a big one, A big chunk of
what goes to schools. I don't have kids where I live. You know
a lot of people. Oh, I didn't know the school district is where
the kid's going to school. It's not a concern of mine. But I
still support pumping money into schools. If anything, I support quadrupling the money
you pump into public education. But for the first time ever, I'm like,
I don't want to I want to save twenty five hundred bucks. Yeah,
So I'm voting counterintuitively to what I tend to believe to save me money.
What I'm doing it. We're not We're not all one thing, Mikey.
We can't just broad brushstroke, you know, our beliefs and the things
that we choose to do. We're duplicitous. What are the odds that you're
going to go vote on the wrong thing? Accident? Yeah, Okay,
I was told very clearly by someone who knows I'm a moron to vote yes
on Prop four and then I believe there's another. I read one thing about
it and it's like it's literally taking money away from schools. Vote yes,
man, don't it's for people who have I mean, I don't have a
great house, but it's you know, it's all right. But I'm you're
going to exercise today? Yes, I am exercise. You're right, my
constial, I will you start singing? Freedom isn't free when you go in,
when you go into vote, absolutely, pick a random number five through.
I want to hear the wording on the one that is on the ballot
for teacher's retirement. Do you see that one that one's getting a lot of
buzz on the internet? Is that Texas Water Fund? No? Okay?
Is that like it? But should I vote to support that? Is that
broadband? In? Oh? I support it? Medical? Oh about Prophecation
twelve? And I don't. I guess we're voting on this. Should the
office of County Treasurer in Galveston County be abolished? I don't give a crap.
Oh my god, that's why freedom cost a buco five. I'm out.
I'm out on that one. Tell me about Prop fourteen. Okay.
Prop fourteen should the state create a Centennial Parks Conservation Fund to buy new land
for state parks. Yes, I think yes. I like state parks.
I want big, beautiful state parks. What about thirteen? We're going to
just do them all? Okay, okay, okay, this is good.
I thought we were voting for Frank and Larry. Today we're not. We're
voting for props. This is a good one. Prop thirteen should the mandatory
retirement age of state justices and judges be increased to seventy nine years old from
seventy five. No, no vote. We got enough young younger for sure,
no doubt. Yeah, no doubt. We got enough oldies making decisions.
So no to Prop thirteen. And that's not political at all. As
we've saw the mister Connell thing happened. But then we also so this happened
with Feinstein. She couldn't, you know, form a thought, and then
she died two weeks later. Anyone who's not between the ages of twenty five
and fifty four is meaningless. I agree on this planet that includes Danny Man.
Meaningless people. You're not serious people, So get out there and vote,
and I want to see your stickers on, which is the whole reason
you're doing it anyway, so you can vote shame. Put a sticker on
your ass like Jeff did on his tattoo, and post it to no one.
He's having won the freak. I voted. Put that I voted.
Sticker on your butt. When you go to the poles, you're gonna scrape
off your let's go Brandon sticker from your back dash or your back windshield.
Yeah, is there anything funnier than a political bumper sticker being like a quarter
scraped off because they're like low quality and they can't get them off, and
there's like ef it, leave it quit, Like you can tell they wanted
and they wanted to just not do this anymore. But you know, the
sticker was a runner. I got a neighbors left them all on Man his
whole thickup truck. I don't see how he sees out of his back windshield.
Man the greatest by me, and I'm hoping this for next A year
from now, there's a duplex I pass every year. A duplex A very
pretty small place, two sides left and right, and both of them are
hell bent. Different sides really one of them was just Trump everywhere. The
other one was Biden everywhere, and it's duplex. I'm like, every time
I went by, I'm just looking like you had more stuff? Do we
add more? How's the war? The war rages on? Hey. The
good thing about today's voting too, though, is it won't take long.
There will be a lot of people. Sure, seven to seven, you
can vote on all these important measures and statutes and vote yes on the one
ye screws the school chill here it helps me and a little more importantly,
we've got to get to the bottom of this treasurer situation in Galveston County,
absolutely, and we'll handle that. And also at seven thirty, uh local
spot here in town gets a big shout out, where did the Rangers celebrate
after the parade? And we'll get your birthdays covered for you as well,
seven thirty in the Scuttle Bunch chances when Green Day tickets at eight o'clock.
But coming up next we'll get Danny's thoughts on Cowboys Eagles as he was off
here today. Plus the MAVs are they the most sneaky thing in DFLB right
now? Next to ninety seven one the Free
