Your first question: that's true of the Colorado River Compact, but not of western water law in general. Western water law is all about acquiring rights by putting water to beneficial use. And you...

I don't like the whole tip economy and the expectation of tipping. But while I'm not wealthy, I can afford to throw a couple of bucks to the sandwich artist, so I do.

zip code man is amazeballs. That he managed to create a very successful busker gig all because he's some weird kind of savant is weird and cool.

I guess NPR did a thing on him almost 20 years...

Better be prepared to pay out billions and billions for the 5th amendment takings.

Water law in the west arose out of the same fundamental condition that we're struggling with now-- that there is...

that place is going to cause angst in the upstate thread. To a New Yorker it is surely upstate, but to the real upstaters???

I think zip code man is still around.

I think the realtor jumped the gun in posting this listing.

The official thread club wouldn't have any of our threads as a member.

And it took those anti-vaxers to finally pull the curtains away so we could all see how absurd modern medicine is, amirite? :nonono2:



Rather than you just saying "it's obvious", why don't you...

Yep, anyone who is a basketball fan has to enjoy that artistry. Just like the artistry of Steph Curry bending defenses, or those Spurs teams of the 2000s and their beautiful offense. Just awesome to...

As I noted upthread, there are different standards of navigability depending on the subject. The one in the case I linked is navigability for title, which has a somewhat clear definition under...

Are we sure this isn't the official thread? Because it feels like the official thread.

I guess this is why you are a doctor and not a lawyer. :)

The state doesn't own it, as it stands currently. The landowner has a chain of title stretching back to a federal patent, he bought the property and is currently paying property taxes on the land....

suddenly I'm wanting to eat a plate of shrimp. Or maybe some sushi and not pay...



small victories.

I remember the lines you just quoted, but I don't have the whole script memorized. And don't know why he's quoting it here.

There are different standards of navigability so it is tricky, you need to know which one you are referencing. For the one at issue in the CO case, it is "navigability for title", which is (going by...

the fuck you talking about, Willis?

You are correct that the CO decision does not impact the right to float. And in one sense doesn't impact the right to wade (if such a right exists) because the Court found that a fisherman did not...

Trying to address a few posts, questions, and corrections:



That's a weird take to me, you'd never want to take your GF camping with your kid? Aren't you supposed to try to integrate a partner...

You seem to be under the mistaken assumption that he actually cares about governance.

Yep. But standing wasn't at issue in that case, totally different procedural posture. And different interpretation of each state's constitution.

I'd prefer New Mexico's interpretation, but that's...

No (at least that is what she said, but I believe her). She said she has dated a couple of people, but none seriously enough to introduce to my daughter. While we do not see eye to eye on a number of...

What is? Me sleeping in one bed with the GF while my daughter sleeps in another? Or me making my daughter sleep with me in one bed and making the GF sleep in another?

Absolutely true, but co-parenting is a lot easier when we're getting along.

As for the second lines, I absolutely focus on that, on my daughter, and talk to her. But one thing the ex said that I...

Advice sought from the collective and this seems like the right thread for it. My ex is freaking out over my new girlfriend and how I am introducing my tween daughter to her. I went camping this past...

Jacob deGrom undergoing TJ surgery. Oof. What a bummer.

Hall of fame level pitcher that will never get into the hall. Unless he comes back and wins a 3rd CYA.

It's not. It's transmogrifying into a for-profit entity.

Ally is the clubhouse leader right now. Sofi is still in the running. Unlikely to go with one of the biggies.

quality post

There's a current thread that might be useful for that. ;)

Let me give you another example in a different context. There's a property for sale that would be great for hunting, and you like to hunt. Jason is selling the property, and there are 2 guys...

Nope, that is not what it says.

"The SCOTSOC says he has no standing to sue because it has not been established that the river is state property."

No, they said he doesn't have standing to...

Heh, was just coming here to post the same joke

STFU you cracker ass cracker!

This, 100% (right down to struggling with "retard" but successfully filtering it out).

For anyone wondering about this lawsuit, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled on it yesterday: https://coloradosun.com/2023/06/05/colorado-supreme-court-ends-river-access-dispute/

I'm not sure I could rate him higher, but I do agree that lots of NBA fans do not realize how good he is.

"what the fuck" was my reaction to this news as well.

By online bank, I just mean I have no need for physical presence. I do want email and phone options, I just don't need a B&M bank nearby. I don't care if they do have physical locations, but I won't...

Yeah, I hear you. And I'm not considering leaving USAA because they've redesigned things, it's because of their absolute shit service, and their disregard for their customers. I have wanted to...

I have been pretty exclusively online for 25 years, so I'm not concerned with the local branch. And I can always open an account at Elevations CU if needed.

I am so over USAA and am considering finding a different banking option after 25 years. The local credit union is an option, but overall I have liked having an online bank and would prefer that...

Was looking at my bank acct online and saw a couple of odd transactions. They were credits titled "corrective payment". I just wanted to know what they were, and in looking around the website,...

There was one play where MPJ shot a 3, and while he stood there watching it, the closest defender rushed to the rim and got the rebound. He's not the only player who has a habit of just watching his...
