  1. Oh for Fuck's sake! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.... We have played what... only one FCS program and that was Sam Houston State in 2006? There is NO reason to ever play a fucking FCS school. We are not aggy. With the expanded playoffs, we don't need a creampuff. Good Lord.
  2. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!
  3. University of Texas at Austin Class of 1981. I DID have sex with a young lady who attended UF once though ... or, was it twice?
  4. Jane, you ignorant slut! You should have said, "All white is about the only version that is acceptable but is still not great, save and except for the Longhorns Storm Troopers all white look which is iconic."
  5. Why the fuck would you go from this to UCF Knights? Damn... that's the Great Gazoo from the Jetsons and Flintstones fame.
  6. Dude... it's not you. It's the color of the car. Green has historically been bad luck. https://jalopnik.com/how-the-color-green-became-a-deadly-bad-luck-superstiti-1763008917
  7. Well fuck me. 43% At least the Germans were the best dressed military of all time.
  8. I know many doctors who already think/know the "peer to peer" reviews they have to do now are a joke. Most have no idea that those "peer to peer" reviews are going to go away in terms of human interaction.
  9. On a serious note (I know, I know ... so inappropriate for our fellow Surlyites, Surlyitians?) health insurance companies are all over ai software programs. Uploading their guidelines (some companies ran their internal guidelines through their finance and accounting departments to determine what is the least amount of coverage at the lowest cost they can supply while still ostensibly complying with the Mental Health Parity Act of 2008), uploading outside sources which support their guidelines and then, implementing this system. This effectively will allow them to fire most of their direct care staff employees and authorization for treatment and the payment for expensive treatment will be made by silicone based intelligence. If you think the medical and mental health systems right now are broken... just wait. These professionals are already being forced to utilize medical guidelines drafted by insurance companies and if they choose not to accept insurance... they effectively have no practice. Unemployment will go up, the profits for health insurance companies will explode upward and our feckless politicians on both sides of the aisles do their, "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" routines. Ok.. this public service announcement is over. Now back to your regularly scheduled Surly-ites memes.
  10. Yes, I too liked Jeng Chi before the remodel. And I agree with you about the food. We used to like Kirin Court on Sundays as well. Always packed.
  11. Was in Austin between 1977 and 1981. Go to restaurants included: Casita Jorge's on Lavaca (back when their margs were KILLER); Mad Dog & Beans; Cisco's on East 6th Street for Sunday brunch; Matt's El Rancho on 1st Street; The Stallion for chicken fried steak; Dirty's (Kumback) -- great greasy hangover food; The County Line Katz's Deli for those late night drunk fests Kerbey Lane Cafe for hippy weekend brunch Many more.
  12. DAMN... I knew I saw his face somewhere before!
  13. You may have caught them on a bad night. My impression was that they started strong, had the usual opening issues, corrected them. They then had a bit of a lull. COVID hit hard of course. But, in the past 6 months they have improved again. And they do have Tsing Tao beer. They have gotten the online orders wrong on more than one occasion with me. But even still ... I don't like "Round Eye" Asian places... Pei Wei, Panda Express, etc. If I have the time, I will still go to little Chinatown on Greenville Avenue in Richardson. I particularly like Jeng Chi.
  14. Well shit. I was beginning to get pretty pumped at the thought of the 2024 Big 12/SEC basketball challenge. No doubt... I mean no doubt at all that Texas would be scheduled against Ole Miss in Austin. The signs alone would have been epic. BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ... ESPN did not renew the series. It is over. And the SEC is starting an SEC/ACC bball challenge. Fuck a duck.
  15. Wait a second! That "Hillary Clinton-esque Fatted Calf" is from Designated Girl No. 8???? Not Designated Girl 16???? WTF?!!?
  16. WTF! You got some sharp eyes there. That's like picking out the hand holding the knife in DaVinci's "Last Supper" painting.
  17. Ok, so would it actually be "firing" him? The "interim" label was never removed from his job description. In any event, USA Today had a damn good article about this situation. Happy reading boys. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/columnist/dan-wolken/2023/03/10/texas-college-basketball-awkward-interim-coach-rodney-terry-chris-beard/11446297002/

    Boys, I was doing some research on Oklahoma laws regarding physicians, suicide, etc and came across this little nugget. This is the current law in Oglaucoma. If any person shall utter or speak any obscene or lascivious language or word in any public place, or in the presence of females, or in the presence of children under ten (10) years of age, he shall be liable to a fine of not more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00), or imprisonment for not more than thirty (30) days, or both. Okla. Stat. tit. 21 § 906
  19. When I played high school football, the head coach would occasionally yell out, "OK, I WANT THE FIRST TEAM ON FIELD 1 ! THE SECOND TEAM ON FIELD B ! THE "ROYS" STAY HERE! I asked a player what the hell a "ROY" is. He said, "Rest of Y'all." It sure seems like Red Bull is the first team and everyone else is a ROY this year. Best entertainment looks to come from watching who will slide into the number 2 place as Verstopthem and Red Bull have the titles wrapped up before the summer break.
  20. Fascinating ... at least for me. This almost 10 minute video goes into the mental health of F1 drivers and specifically ... Valtteri Bottas, who opens up about his eating disorder from years ago.
  21. Yup... up on Youtube.
  22. In my younger years, I had a bit of a cavalierly loose interpretation of my own morality. Having said that, I have seen THAT look in women's eyes before. YOU WERE SWINGERS!!!! Brat... you Magnificent Bastard you!
