  1. Has he thought about talking with music profs? My daughter auditioned on marimba and the prof loved her, but she really wanted Psych (and she's almost done now). He was very gracious and said he'd be happy to admit her as a freshman into Butler and then help her transfer to Psych within UT. She ended up just doing CAP at UTSA and got to the same spot, mostly because she didn't want to take too much time with music (irony of ironies given the last couple of years).
  2. You have to be selected for CAP, and then a 3.2 gpa at the school you pick (from the list they allow you to pick from) gets you into most of the College of Liberal Arts. Engineering/business/natural science are longer shots. @mdmost do NOT rule out your daughter's ability to land a CAP spot. My son's grades and scores were a long way from impressive, and yet here we are, about 25 credit hours from a degree in Pscyh from UT-Austin. The essay apparently matters, a lot, along with recommendations.
  3. Well, Shark Week starts Sunday, so yeah.
  4. Why would that be surprising? I've read that historically speaking, something like 30%-50% of 6th/7th round picks make the roster.
  5. Sumbay, Doubby Sumbay
  6. I love that song. (Primitive Radio Gods, not the BB King source, which I don't actually know.)
  7. Head out for the big Coldplay concert with your subordinate side piece, get caught on camera, become a national laughingstock and have your wife drop your name from her social media presence all within 18 hours. That guy has straight shooter written all over him.
  8. You are out of the loop. It's a club. "Oh, you're c-suite? We have a board opening on our non-profit, it would be a good stepping stone. Let's talk." Some fraction become CEOs and they they're on the for-profit boards and everybody makes bank accordingly and lather, rinse, repeat. A significant majority of the c-suiters are worthless.
  9. Evidence would suggest Jagger/Richards aren't greedy bastards when it comes to songwriting credits. Keef's daughter famously noticed the Stones' "Anybody Seen My Baby" was a cop of kd lang's "Constant Craving", however inadvertent, and so they added kd lang and Ben Mink as songwriters.
  10. Get off the sauce. I'm pretty sure I'm reading the thread I started since I'm having to comment on your bitchass scolding of people who are asking relevant questions. Go be a thread cop somewhere else.
  11. You could just ignore questions that bother you so much.
  12. Who are their 10 draft picks?
  13. Coldplay sucks so bad we chose to watch Kanye at ACL Fest instead. Then Kanye sucked so we wandered over to watch Coldplay, who confirmed our earlier suspicions, so we went to Magnolia Cafe and I had Eggs Zapatino and all was well. The end.
  14. Jesus on a Big Wheel, ztejas. Gatekeep on another thread.
