Warden's report on Chip and Joanna's Magnolia Store

- Not much furniture, mostly the décor type stuff  Joanna places all over the houses (and then takes it back after the show ends)
- They went pretty early and no line but 30-45 minute line to get in the store when she left.  Fire Department enforces the occupancy limit.  Saturday     lines are sometimes 1-2 hours waiting to get in.
- Prices were astronomical
- Checkout line was 50-60 people long so takes about an hour to check out.  She was told it was double that on Saturdays.
- Got an entire section for non-decorator items like t-shirts, hats, show videos, koozees and other junk.
- She did not spend a penny!

Summary - People are so stupid!
no word from her on Chip?

Morning, muchachos.

A record number of illegal aliens have crossed the U.S.- Mexico border and are in U.S. Border Patrol custody in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley Sector (RGV), according to the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC). Border Patrol Agent and NBPC President Brandon Judd spoke exclusively with Breitbart Texas and condemned the leadership of the Border Patrol’s parent agency, Customs and Border Protection (CBP), for allegedly “keeping this information secret” ahead of the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

No see Chip or Joanna there, basically the place is no more than a fancy tourist trap.

Howdy, Tex. Bad thing about having a bunch of money in the bank is the temptation to buy every gun I ever wanted. Found myself looking too long and lustfully at an ad for a Glock 20 over the weekend. I resisted the temptation, but damn.

That is the way it is done here and if available definitely the easiest way.

Shush. I just bought a Model 29 that's in for gunsmithing, a Ruger American All Weather in 30-06, and a Leupold VXi-3 3.5-10x40mm.  And I'm plotting out an AR build.  No more guns until I make some more money.

Had to take my U-verse equipment to the UPS Store for return, must say AT&T has set up a pretty good program for that, now if only they could hire some decent installers.  Just haul it to any UPS Store and they will give you a receipt for it then pack and ship it.

In the extra sub compact carry world the 9 mm Shield is a solid choice.  Ruger offers some nice carry stuff at reasonable prices also.  I will forewarn you that with your arthritis you need to consider that  the .40 S&W offers quite a bit of recoil even in just a compact piece.  Personally in the sub compact world I carry a Springfield XD-S .45 with 3.3" barrel.

Yes it is and an expensive one!  Only meetings in the gun world are enabling meetings too!
