Better call your representatives and the POTUS and tell them not to vote for or sign the Ominibus bill to keep the government open.

In a nutshell here's what's wrong with it:

1) Less of a wall than even what Democrats already agreed to.
2) Liberal local officials have veto power over wall.
3) This bill contains a blatant amnesty for the worst cartel smugglers.
4) More funding to manage and induce the invasion rather than to deter it.
5) Doubling low-skilled workers.

All my wire is on posts now. When I was a kid we'd stretch with one hammer and staple with another, into tree if there were any around. Used a softer 12ga wire. I use 14ga gaucho now. Don't let that shit get away when stretching!

We talk a lot of smack about those in public education and a lot if them dont live up to what I might hope they would be.

And that picture and story above is one of a million of someone who makes a big difference in kids lives.

My daughter had Valentine cards with pictures of puppies and kitties on the front and a short Bible verse on the back.
Her teacher pulled me aside and said that really made her day to have that on a Valentine card and how glad she was that my daughter was growing up in a Christian home.
And she is a great teacher on top of it. Kids love her too.
Public school in Denver!
Kinda feel like we could use her for our GGWG sometime.....

I'll never buy Gaucho. 250' between steel H-braces, 2.5 ton come-a-long, and it ain't tight until it sings in the wind. I've got 7/8 of a mile replaced with 6 strand, 5 foot tall. Have 7/8 of a mile to go.

Why won't you use gaucho? Because horses? Compared to something like red brand the beakhert (spelling?) wire is better coated and a lot stiffer.
