Dorian you better turn north! I just got posted up on the panhandle in 30A and it would bummer to cut this vacation short. It would also be a bummer to fly home and get hit by this thing if it keeps on going west.
A bigger bummer is if it gets in the Gulf and affects anywhere from Baton Rouge westward on Sept 6th or 7th

Do they not put you under for a prostate biopsy now ? They sound pretty fucking painful.
Nope, they don't put you under. I've had three, and for my first one they didn't even use a local anesthetic. Worst pain I've ever experienced by far. The last two used a local anesthetic, and it made a world of difference, but it is still a very unpleasant pain in the ass.

Golf Digest with a write-up about sectionals, and lists by site of who qualified for Pebble
What goes in to selection of a course for the qualifying rounds, and does the USGA provide any input into the course setup at the qualifying courses? It seems you would want the qualifying courses to be set up with the same philosophy as the US Open course, to produce qualifiers whose game is more suited to US Open setups.
Just curious, because that one Florida qualifier had a cut line at -11, and several other qualifiers had lots of players deep under par.

I need to see a link for this. Otherwise, well-crafted, but you missed the opportunity to use the word "ejected" in lieu of "injected".
Mm, good catch! But you can't blame the reporter. After all - ejected, injected, ejaculated are all terms that Aggy use interchangibly.

SpoilerNew Northgate Bar Bursts Onto Scene and Puts the Cock in Craft Cocktails
By Benjamin Dover benjamin.dover@theeagle.com May 15, 2019
Howdy, Aggies! Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock lately, surely you’ve heard about “Mason’s Jar” – College Station’s white-hot new venue that has injected some real stuff into Northgate’s otherwise flaccid food and drink scene. Situated on prime real estate next to the world-famous Dixie Chicken (with convenient backdoor entry provided), Mason’s Jar is THE new place for Fightin’ Texas Aggies to get their jizz fix – but this time in a public setting!
Proprietor Greg Hood (BS, ’82) describes Mason’s Jar as Aggieland’s first semen-based craft cocktail bar. Hs says the seed for this concept was planted deep within him back when he was in the Corps of Cadets. “We felt the pump was primed and had a hunch this concept would explode right out of the gate.” Hood said locals have been flocking to his bar every night of the week since its grand opening last month the day after Aggie Muster.
Their signature drink is the “Johnny’s Wad”, an innovative variation of a Vodka and RedBull but with a savory twist. In his new post-football career as mixologist-in-chief, let’s just say Manziel doesn’t just lend his name to the drink!
Customers have also been frothing at the mouth to try whimsical concoctions such as the “Kreme & Kow”, “Ol’ Sarge”, and “Slo-cum Fizz”, as well as “The Whip Out” which in turn has spawned the “Hand Fashioned”.
Even your basic rum & coke – re-branded as the “RC Special” - has been modified to use RC Cola, of course, but also is dosed following a recipe Hood has meticulously traced back to Rick Perry’s days in legendary Corps Squadron 6.
As evidence of their rapid surge in popularity, Hood tells the story of their opening day. “We had a Now Hiring sign in the window. Naturally when you’re starting out, the last thing you want is to come up short-handed, so I humbly asked the Aggie Network, ‘Can you help me with this?’. Well, I’m proud to say that within just one hour, not only had every opening been filled, but we even had Cadets by the dozen eagerly marching right up and offering free contributions to our inventory.”
It is clear Hood can barely contain his enthusiasm for the actions of his fellow Corpsmen that day, as he gushes, “We knew we had to do something to honor all those men who came in our time of need. That’s literally the genesis of what turned out to be our best-selling menu item, the “12th Man”. Think of it as the Texas Aggies’ answer to the Long Island Iced Tea – I mean, it goes down so smooth, it’ll get you in trouble in a real hurry if you don’t watch out” Hood said with a twinkle in his eye, adding “It is the one type of tea that is perfectly acceptable for sippin’ in the Brazos Valley!”
Time will tell whether Mason’s Jar will have staying power, or if its upward ascendency will peak prematurely like so many Texas A&M football seasons. But judging by the number of “Dang, why didn’t I think of thats” heard muttered by passers-by, it seems likely that Mason’s Jar is on the precipice of becoming Aggieland’s newest tradition.

Oh man, bumping this thread because I just learned that tv commentator and former cyclist Paul Sherwen has died. His analyses were always spot on and really made broadcasts come to life.
QuoteNBC Sports cyclist analyst Paul Sherwen died Sunday at age 62.
Sherwen, one of the most well-known voices in the sport, was involved in 40 Tours de France, including 33 as a commentator and seven as a competitor. He also covered cycling at five Olympics for NBC in 1996, 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016.
As a pro cyclist, Sherwen won British national titles in 1986 and 1987 and raced in prestigious one-day classics Paris-Roubaix and Milan-San Remo.

Going to try to get some revenge for the Drake loss in '85 I guess. Yes we lost to fucking Drake in 1985.
Always been a DU fan though, one of my HS buddies played DE there.
I was at that game, sitting a few rows behind the Drake bench. Miserable game. Then somehow in our final game that year we turned around and beat a #7 Okie State team led by Thurman Thomas in one of the coldest and windiest games I've ever attended.

Today he also picked aggy to win

These lake levels aren't unprecedented. Yes, demand is higher than the last time it was this high ('06-'07?) - but I would hope this was not unforeseen and some sort of multi-day/week flaw in our water system that has just been glossed over.

bad call--that was an int.
Not an INT. Commentators are terrible - no careful analysis of the replay. The guy was not in control, the ball hit the ground first, while he was securing it. Then he wrapped up possession.

At Petra, Jordan I somehow got caught up in an adventurous moment and decided to accept a rather sketchy Bedouin's offer for a clearly not sanctioned off-path "hike" out of the park on foot to the south, and to some nearby areas with good views into Petra. After a few kilometers of nice level walking, the hike turned into some really serious rock climbing going up, up, up. Now, truly in the middle of nowhere, after scrambling up a particularly steep climb and having an extremely close call with falling backwards to my death due to not being used to the weight of my backpack, I was glad for my guide's offer to let him to tote my backpack the rest of the way. But the most dangerous moment was when we came to a crevasse/gorge and had to jump across it. No way down at this point. So, the only choice is to jump across and keep going up. I told him I didn't think I could make it. It was only about 8-ft which seems easy until you do it with no runup and just a push-off to get from one side of the cliff to the other. He said to jump and grab for his arm, and he would make sure I didn't fall.
Missing this jump would result in falling a couple hundred feet to a painful death wedged between some cracks in the rock, and obviously with no help close by. I took what can only be described as a leap of faith. He grabbed me just like he said, in a moment totally out of my control or physical ability to make it on my own. We sat on a rock ledge for 10 minutes while I got my heart rate back down and stopped my involuntary shaking.

Has anyone been tracking the Grove at Shoal Creek mixed-use development project?
Prime piece of land. Will it be successful?

In my head I always translate it to Carlos y Queso's as a play on words.
But come to think of it, Carlos y Queso's could be a pretty sweet concept to revive a struggling brand!

"These are fine young men,..." Smith said.
Yeah, right!
I remember the story, but reading that again just stokes the fire of Baylor hatred!
(also a downer: the linked story also included the news of Iowa State discontinuing baseball and men's swimming)
