    This was my father, except for the fact that he would use his dictaphone to record his replies.

    If he saw something on the Internet that he wanted to share with someone, he would print it out, have his secretary scan it, email it to him, and then he would forward you the PDF.

    It took years to convince him that there was an easier way. 

    I remember trying to explain how fax machines work to my dad around early 1990s.  I remember his uncomprehending look at the data being reduced and sent over a phone line, and finally giving up and saying, "it's fucking magic, pop, it's magic."

    Should probably go in the getting old sucks thread, but ear hairs.  Not inside the ear, but I get this one that grows on the top, only it’s not like an actual hair, it’s more like 30lb monofilament line.  I can feel it up there but if I yank it out it’ll bleed.  Guess I should just tie a snap swivel on it.  

    The inside the ears ones suck also.  When they stick out far enough that you can feel them and you start playing, "Froggy went a'courtin" on them.  Plus they are rooted somewhere in your brain when they finally get long enough to pluck.

    He was such a terrible fit at Tennessee, I'd love to hear some of those stories. I bet the guy who sells Yella Wood had a run in with Freshwater.

    Yella Wood guy (Jimmy Rane) is an Auburn alumni and on their Board of Trustees.  Don't know how that pertains to Tennessee and Kiffin.

  4. I've been doing the minion method with a split oak log (from Academy) in the middle of the charcoal basket and have had good luck getting 15+ hours on my 18.5.  Cajun Bandit sells a charcoal ring that is wider and holds more than the Weber one also.

    Yeah it has been a long time wandering in the desert Llano Estacado for us.  I want this Baseball Team to win all.  They are hot right now, and I hope that carries through.

     

  6. If you like Civil War stuff, Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield is about 10 or so miles north of the ballpark.  Despite what was said earlier in the thread, Georgia Aquarium is world class.  If you're around Midtown Atlanta, Atlanta Botanical Garden by Piedmont Park is nice to walk through.
