Reminds me of this Greg Giraldo bit: "I read this book recently and it was filled with letters that soldiers during the Civil War wrote to their girlfriends back home. Every letter in this book was amazing. They were like, 'My Dearest Hannah, This morn finds me wrecked by the fiery pangs of your absence. I'll bear your cherished memory with me as I battle the forces of tyranny and oppression.' Now think about what the typical letter from your average Gulf War solider to his girlfriend back home in Brooklyn must have read like, 'Dear Marie, It is hot as fuck out here. It is hard to fight these sand monkeys with your balls stuck to your legs. It is very very hot and I am very very sweetie. It is very very hot because I am in the dessert. What else did I want to axe you? Oh yeah, don't fuck nobody til I get back.'"

Interesting (maybe) family story related to the Japanese occupation of China and the birth of my wife’s mother: My wife needed her mother’s birth city for a visa application. Here’s the gist of their conversation: Wife: Where you born? Mom: In China Wife: I know that. Where in China? Mom: Oh. A horse farm. Wife: Where was the horse farm? Mom: I don’t know. Wife: Ok. I’ll just go with Horse Farm, China. Side story: Around the time my MIL was being born, her older sister (maybe 8 or so at the time), went missing. Some of the older family members ran among the other families fleeing the Japanese to look for her. Luckily, they found her not too far down the road.

2022 Fuck Fantasy Football
Copied from another thread based on a suggestion: I’m in a playoff pool where the participants pick a lineup at each stage with the caveat being you can only select a player one time. This is only my second year playing in a pool like this, so I’m interested in hearing/discussing any strategy. There are multiple layers of complexity when selecting a lineup (e.g., likelihood of generating fantasy points vs. not advancing, probability of scoring more points in the earlier rounds vs. the conference championship or Super Bowl, saving a player who ends up not advancing). Has anyone done one of these playoff pools?

TCU or Georgia? Four players have a chance to finish in the money with three having a shot at 1st, depending on the picks.

2006 Rose Bowl National Championship Stories
My wife and I got married in Austin on November 5, 2005 (her father was diagnosed with cancer, so we chose Baylor weekend), so we had been married for only a couple of months. She and I had tickets to the game; however, she got a horrible cold a day before we our flight to LA. The next day she didn’t feel any better (couldn’t even get out of bed) and knew she wouldn’t be able to go. I said “Sorry, baby” and left for the airport. She would have done the same thing. csb…In 2020, when there were no sports during the early part of the pandemic, she and I watched the game like it was live. We were yelling and cheering throughout. Our kids thought we were crazy.
