NPR did a great story on the wreck and Lightfoot's song. I found this fascinating:
Quote"From 1875 to 1975, there were at least 6,000 commercial shipwrecks on the bottom of the Great Lakes," Bacon told NPR. "So that is one shipwreck a week every week for a century. That is one casualty every day for a century."
. . .
Ultimately, said author John U. Bacon, the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald helped change safety standards. There has not been a single major commercial shipwreck on the Great Lakes, he says, for the past 50 years.

Yeah remember when we had to hire our 5th choice back when Mack retired? We sure set the market on that one!
Let’s not get too arrogant.
We also had this fuckstick running things.
I agree we can't just assume that Texas is going to elbow other programs out of the way to get the top candidate on the market. But we're far better equipped to get a top candidate now than in 2013.

He lives in the Keys, likely in a gated community. Somebody would have to be really committed to harm him. There many, many cameras on the Seven Mile Bridge. The ferry requires a ticket.

I have ALWAYS disliked Pat McAfee. It bordered on real, old fashioned hate. I'm fully there now.
He's truly the worst punter in NFL history, if I have to be honest.

I thought pedophiles were only protected in towns with good high school football teams.
Hey, McCallum finished with a 6-4 record, 4-3 in district. Don't think Garza hasn't noticed.

I’ve never in my life had a McRib. I think that growing up on a hog farm and being somewhat of a pork bbq snob it has always offended me a little.

It's on par with Franklin BBQ.

I don't even expect Saturday to be close. Texas winning this game would be fucking stunning, and I'd absolutely take it.
This is where I am.
It's perfectly fine to think your alma mater and favorite team you've cheered on for decades will lose a football game, and for the loss to not even be close. We have yet to play a complete game against a quality opponent this season (great defense/shitty offense against Ohio State; vastly improved offense/below average (though ref assisted) defense against Vandy). We're playing on the road against the best team in the SEC over the past few years. Yes, I think there's a chance that Texas can win this game, but it's substantially low, and I think there's a greater chance the result is closer to the Georgia regular-season win over Texas last year.

Saw a trailer, looked like nothing but recruitment propaganda. Plenty of far more interesting and realistic docs about marine basic training out there already.
Well there you go, looks like this series will win an Emmy.

Civil Service, to be sure.
There's always the possibility of a burn, or a nick of a finger while chopping. These are the everyday sacrifices that do not make the news.

I will attempt to honor you by making the most bangin' pre-Turkey-Day brown stock ever. In addition to the carcass and bones of the turkey-for-ants above (a/k/a Stunt Turkey), which have taken a trip through the air fryer to roast up, I also roasted many reserved and frozen bones from pork shoulders, pork ribs, and two tomahawk ribeyes. Roasting some onions and carrots now and will be spending my time off today simmering all of the goodness out of this barnyard, skeletal cornucopia, which ultimately will end up in dressing, gravy, and gumbo. Pictures incoming.
Thank you for your service (in the kitchen).

Well, I for one could have done without knowing that your mom's name is Ambrosia. But, I mean, good for your dad and his most boring possible version of 9 and 1/2 weeks roleplay with Ambrosia.

The Democrats will give up a game-winning walk-off homer in the bottom of the 9th.

There is a wide range of characters in any group like that.
True. But as a kid they all seemed the same to me, like real life G.I. Joe action figures. Part of being young, I guess.

Anybody else watching this?
I'm only an episode in. It's "meh" to my wife, but more interesting to me since my dad served in the Marines for 27 years (Vietnam at the beginning of his career and the Persian Gulf war toward the end) and I grew up on Marine Corps bases (Lejeune High Class of 1992). I'm a little amused at the range of characters featured, mostly because they all seem like kids to me at my age, even some of the junior officers. A few have a very level-headed approach to combat -- they work their ass off to be ready for war at a moment's notice, but pray it never comes to that. But some of the young enlisted men are like Francis straight out of stripes, borderline psychotic -- "All I know is I finally get to kill somebody."

Was persuaded to watch Casablanca in my early 20s by a girl I had started dating and whose pants I wanted to get into. I was pretty bored during the whole movie, but pretended to like it. We dry humped for a long time after that, and I drove home with the bluest of balls. #csb

2025 Week 12: Texas @ Georgia
in Football
Posted
Of all the reasons to piss on Georgia and Kirby Smart, getting tips from a head coach who beat Texas this season is hardly one of them. We'd have no problem if Sark did the same.
