Your explanation has about a 50 times higher likelihood of being correct.
Has anyone seen my specialty plates?

That would explain why they aren’t responding now. But he originally sent the invoices in March/early april.

Update on the TCU payment thing:
Called today and think I got it sorted out. Apprently because I submitted the invoices twice (once, then a second time when the first supposedly got lost), the system flagged them for potential fraud and they didn’t get processed for payment.
Never mind that I have 3 different ways in the invoice for them to contact me.
Confirmed today the amounts needed and was assured the checks would be cut this Friday. Fingers crossed.

Every time the weed debate comes up I can’t help but wonder why TX doesn’t have casinos.
I’ve heard a lot of the debates around the subject centering around how they hurt people financially (but we have the lottery and scratch offs), they attract transients (already have quite a few), and they are addictive (we already allow and even celebrate alcohol, tobacco, strip clubs, porn shops, and many want legalized marijuana).
I am certainly not wanting one on every major blvd in DFW but maybe there is a logical way to regulate their placement and allow the revenues earned to benefit our state finances somehow, like with education, public medicine or something pressing like that.
Makes little sense to me that we allow a crappy casino like the ones in Oklahoma to suck away millions and millions of Texans’ income each year because some lawmakers fear the “vice” of it (while they likely still consume some or all of the others listed above).

Time to e-mail JD.
Wife told me the name but it was words that I didn’t know. Said at that level it’s not really too difficult. I can’t do a front flip so I’m impressed.

Honestly, I'd avoid taxing it more than anything else. I hate the idea of taxing the hell out of something bc you don't consume it. At some point the thing someone else wants to get rid of that you consume will be targeted the same way. I think a simple tax equal across the board is the only fair way to do it. It's not the responsibility of the tax man to decide what is righteous and unrighteous.

Consume it? He’s not talking about a sales tax. He’s talking about an income tax. I don’t think I would support legalized gambling just based on the condition of the communities I’ve visited where it is legal (though admittedly, I haven’t really studied it), but if I were to support a business that took as much from locals as legalized gambling does, I would want the casino’s income taxed sufficient to justify it.

If you're not watching Chernobyl on HBO you are missing, perhaps, the most compelling story, best written and acted show ever presented to TV.

Weed and gambling should be legal. We send so much money out of state to Oklahoma, Louisiana, Colorado, etc... Unfortunately the YALL'QAEDA is still in full effect.
