  1. The only time I had an opportunity to really test the reliability of the USPS was when we mailed 100+ wedding invitations.   Failure rate was around 8%.  We had the correct addresses, confirmed with follow up phone calls, and 8% of our invitations didn’t get to their destination.  This was about 10 years ago.  I no longer use the USPS for anything I consider important.

    Seth Meyers Please GIF by Late Night with Seth Meyers

    If this is the first conversation they’ve had on the subject the Secret Service is slipping.  A friend’s older brother, who I had met maybe 5 times, was applying to the Secret Service and I had an agent knock on my door and interview me for 20 minutes.

    The judge is going to hold him in contempt. He did this on purpose since the judge didn’t come down hard today on it. I think he’s playing a game of fuck around and find out with someone who isn’t fucking around. 

    He wants to go to jail.  Temporarily.  Any excuse to play the victim card.  They aren’t going to throw him in gen pop at Rikers.  He will be inconvenienced for an afternoon then grift $100M from bitching about his persecution.

    I'm thinking about the teachers in my hallway and which ones I would trust to handle a firearm in a crisis. And the answer is none of them. 

    But on the positive side, I bet if I start flashing my piece, more students will turn in their homework. 

    I know a lot of teachers.  At my wife’s elementary school the only male teacher is the PE teacher.  A very bright former marine who took a job in the most target-rich environment imaginable.  He literally has the only penis on a campus full of hot teachers  and MILFs having a variety of marriage issues.  He can have a gun.  Maybe the principal, who seems like a no-bullshit bitch who might enjoy filling someone who invaded her school with lead.  The rest of the faculty is a hard no.  I bought a little revolver a few years ago after we had a few breakins in the hood.  Took the wife to the gun range so she could get comfortable with it and that was a no go.  One trip to the range and she wouldn’t go back.  She would probably rather just take a bullet for her kids than engage in combat.

    Sark and CDC had poor planning. They announced the date for the Spring Game back in January.

    They should have asked the players if anyone had a wedding or some other conflict on April 20th.

    Perhaps there was a venue availability issue in Paris, TX and this was the only weekend that would work?  The last time I was in Paris was for my great aunt’s funeral.  KFC catered.

    It’s not that Quinn isn’t the QB1, but he’s one “Dallas Turner” sack from being out maybe 2-3 weeks. We all know it’s happened before.

    All I can relate to my example is Mack NOT having an experienced Gilbert in the ‘09 Rose Bowl and for the National Championship! I’m not trying to create a QB1 vs QB2 controversy, but just giving Arch the last waning minutes of a game doesn’t give him experience.

    I’ve seen this implemented over the decades and multiple teams were glad they had an “experienced” back up when called upon, especially if QB1 has an injury that might last weeks or the rest of the season.

    Hook’em!!!

    This is a stupid idea.  Get your starter in a groove and leave him in until the game is decided without question.  Telling Quinn to go get a hot dog from the concession stand at the end of the first quarter and sit for series is beyond stupid.

    As to Gilbert, they were trying to redshirt him.  He burned his RS to play in the NC game.

    Not sure when this started happening but I realized last night that my wordle stats aren't being kept anymore since I didn't sign up with an account.  May stop playing now....

    Happened a week or two ago.  They finally got my email address.

  8. Torchy’s tortillas are a no-go.  It wasn’t long ago that a Torchy’s was the closest restaurant to my house, and I went maybe 3 times out of sheer convenience.  It ain’t that fucking hard to make or purchase a decent tortilla.  It’s a shame, because I would grab some of their quirky offerings from time to time if their tortilla’s didn’t fucking suck. But they fucking suck. I’m also white enough to get a fair trial.

  9. I know (knew) a guy who gets 4 every year, all days.  Unfortunately, his daughter is a whore and cheated on my wife’s cousin before I could work an angle prior to their divorce.  That was my best chance.  I had a 2-3 year window and failed to capitalize on it.

    The Jack Nicklaus rule - “let’s see what happens once he has kids.” He called Tiger’s struggles right. 

    Blackie Sherrod said it best back when Tiger turned pro.  The only thing that is going to stop him is a woman or something like that.
