  1. To go work for Georgia the state, not just Georgia the university.
  2. My dad is a former Marine and I grew up in Marine Corps/Navy bases. My dad likes all those Navy boys. Every time he needed to go someplace to fight, those fellas always gave him a ride. Go Navy!
  3. I was a late adaptor to CDs, and I don't even remember hearing about them or seeing them in my local music shops around the 1985 time frame. But this was one of my favorite cassettes as a kid in the mid-80s.
  4. 45: Believe It Or Not (Theme from Greatest American Hero) Cassette: Michael Jackson's Thriller (as a gift), Billy Joel's An Innocent Man (first purchase with my own money) CD: Depeche Mode's Songs of Faith and Devotion Download: No clue
  5. Not necessarily my favorite, but one of the best and most iconic in my opinion, on an album that is on most lists of best albums of all time. I wish I could go back in time as 12-year-old South Austin and hear this opener for the first time. It can still give me a charge. It was during the rise of the 80s hair bands, but those guys and that song kicked ass in a way that the likes of Poison, Motley Crue, Skid Row, etc. never could.
  6. Reality: [and that's with a very generous curve.]
  7. Take that shit to Cloak Room. Congrats, OP!
  8. Do we know if he got the polio vaccine?
  9. I usually go between Dang Hot and Clucking Hot. T22 used to call no-spice chicken “Wimpy,” but I guess they hurt too many feelings.
  10. Fucking Mormons.
  11. He helped make the shit sandwich when his team lost to Florida.
  12. Really silly of him to be turning down NFL practice quad money.
  13. C'mon guys, it's aggy.
  14. No. Texas ain't flipping -- or even turning moderately purple -- anytime soon.
  15. Yep, that's still where we are in Texas. James Talarico is the best shot the Dems have. White guy who talks about Jesus a lot.
  16. The 2022 Alamo Bowl against Washington was just about as meaningless as this game, and I recall all of our starters played a full game, save for Bijan who had already declared for the draft and was a projected Top 10 pick. Maybe players like Arch and Simmons take a different approach. But if a team decides to play in a bowl game, I don't think it's good for the team if healthy players who will be returning in 2026 decide to opt out.
  17. She'll get creamed.
