  1. ????? Heathen. Now I am no Chili-Czar like many on this thread. But, when I make my chili, I put the beef, or pork, or venison on the grill to brown it up. I use charcoal and usually hickory. This adds just a bit of smokiness to the chili.
  2. For those of us suffering from mental health issues, or who have had beloved family members taken, holidays can be so mentally and emotionally exhausting. Sometimes, small snippets of relief are found in the most unusual places. Stay strong Mental Health Warriors. Give your children a big hug and tell them you love them... every day. https://adadsjourneywitheatingdisorders.home.blog/2023/12/18/the-best-of-trees-the-worst-of/
  3. According to "Echoes of Texas Football: The Greatest Stories Ever Told," Coach Landry flew 30 missions over Europe surviving one crash landing. This is an incredible article with some great pics: https://www.historynet.com/how-legendary-nfl-coach-tom-landry-honed-his-fighting-instincts-in-world-war-ii/
  4. Was in Section 342 ... we heard maybe 5 words that mohron said. The rest? Just glorious booooos, loud laughter. SECSECSEC ... boos and laughter. IT WAS GREATNESS!
  5. Unreal... Someone's head should roll on this. There are truly some miserable bastards who deign to breathe our air. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/dead-longhorn-found-oklahoma-state-frat-house-before-big-12-championship
  6. From Far North Dallas... about to start a pot of chili, Messikin food tonight... Section 342 tomorrow ... FUCK 'EM AND FEED 'EM FISHHEADS!!!
  7. That ou pile up reminded me of this clusterfuck ... 2013 Pamplona Spain. NO DEATHS! Surprisingly.
  8. regarding aggy, past failures HAVE dictated future failures ... for the past 84 years.
  9. From Far North Dallas, about to pull the bird out of the brine ... after a walk contemplating the complexities of life ... remembering the joy Longhorn football has brought over the decades ... to missing those no longer here and yet, who inspire us to keep going, to become stronger every day ... And oh yes, remove Tech's Testicles with the lid of a dull edged, rusty Campbell's Soup Can ...
  10. Wow. This comes from a man who was forced to face, and then chose to face, his own demons. As alcoholism was stripping away everything most of us hold dear, for reasons we cannot possibly understand, Sark was granted a second chance at life. For his own redemption. The scientific community cannot fully explain why some people recover and many others don't. The persons with whom I have spoken who struggle with addiction issues or mental health issues, explain that even after recovery, the demon is still there every day. They have just either discovered or had revealed to them stronger coping mechanisms to keep that demon at bay. Every day. Sark has already overcome perhaps the largest obstacle he will ever face. That is the type of man you want leading your program. That is the type of man you want inspiring the young men on the team. People will always bitch and whine and gripe and complain about Sark. After all, it is so much easier to stay on the sidelines throwing rocks at the man in the arena. (and besides, we are Surlytians... that's what we do!) But, the vibe surrounding this team, its "culture" is reminiscent of a past time of success. Toxicity is gone. A new era with all of its potential and promise of pride and greatness is here.
  11. You Magnificent Bastard... As much wiki can be relied upon as a source ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Sanders
  12. You are my Fucking Halloween Hero Year Round.
  13. Fuck me... that brings back memories of ... the late, great BLUE FRONT RESTAURANT. Owned by a German family, 5 or 6? sisters worked there ,during lunch would sing songs in German. IT was greatness. https://lakewood.advocatemag.com/blue-front-ii/
  14. Going to be posting this in the Daily Texan part of this board as well since it deals with physician assisted suicide for mental health issues. An incredibly divisive, controversial topic. This article came out in the Washington Post this past week. Your boy here is mentioned in it, has a photo of me and my daughter. (I tried to squeeze in a surly reference but it ended up on the cutting room floor). [I hope it's not behind a paywall. If so, let me know and I will see what I can do to link the article, gratis] Anyhoo, on November 17, a number of mental health professionals are meeting in Denver to start a new discussion on this issue. And yes, I will be in attendance. Greater tomorrows always start with that first, hesitant step. https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/of-interest/2023/11/01/anorexia-suicide-controversy-jennifer-gaudiani/
  15. From Mickey Mouse Hell in Orlando with my son, his wife, her family ...
  16. Some days are just meant to be more difficult than others. https://adadsjourneywitheatingdisorders.home.blog/2023/10/30/to-my-morgan/
  17. While considering multiple wives (crap... I couldn't even handle one!)... oh, those pesky Samoans and Mormons!
  18. From beautiful Asheville, North Carolina, where Willie Nelson performed 2 nights ago ...
  19. So, my friend and I got to the State Fair about 8:45. Had no trouble driving there because of the secret way with no traffic. (Only hint... you have to drive through a gravel parking lot with lots of potholes). Zipped through the "Game Tickets" entrance without stopping. Friend picked up her on-line purchased coupons (no line either!) Went to the Fletchers behind the stadium. The line moved pretty quickly, plus we each had a beer while moving through the line. Met friends of hers at a nearby IPA bar thingie. Entered the stadium at 10:25. Gate D, It took less than 3 minutes to get in. Wrong team won. ou sucks. Oh.. and for you animals and the rules.
