  1. They had to move quickly. Reinforcements were arriving. I thought that "bloaters" were fully morphed "clickers" and the exterior fungi created a armor-like shell that made them more and more difficult to kill as they aged and it grew thicker.
  2. They avoided the flour altogether. Didn't have it to make pancakes. Declined the biscuits. Turned down the raisin cookies. Dad forgot to bring a cake home.
  3. Because "Oilers" isn't cursed, at all. Because "Oilers" isn't cursed, at all.
  4. Might be uncomfortable, but if you let her get on top you'll be okay.
  5. Can I put money down on tickets for Game 6 and Game 7 of the 2023 World Series?
  6. Pre-game Milo Hamilton would instruct his wife to go into the media dining room before him, so that he could make a grand entrance by himself. Often times I’d see her eating by herself when he had found an audience that would just sit quietly and listen to him drone on.
  7. I cannot imagine being from New Orleans and forced to spend New Year's Eve in DFW. 🥱
  8. What I Learned from Mickey
  9. Disappointed they are talking to Jim Norton and not Dabo there at the end of the half. Dabo would have been more entertaining after the frosh's decision to run instead of throwing it away.
  10. Frog out front should've told you.
  11. utvol was a frequent poster and friend of the Texas program as far back as the old TexasBBS days in the mid to late '90s. His daughter just called to tell me that Neal passed away suddenly this morning. He was the catalyst for many of our original Houston area get togethers at Mucky Duck. He may have bled the wrong color orange, but he loved college football and had a healthy respect for all things burnt orange. He also happened to be as wonderful of a human being as I've ever met in my 50+ years on this planet. The world got a little worse today and the Texas Longhorns lost a good friend. Hopefully he'll catch up with PhxHorn, bully, and Alfredo for a round. RIP utvol. God bless you, brother.
  12. Good family. Dad is still a big advocate for Texas program. Older brother went to Bishop Lynch and is at SMU. Younger brother went to Duncanville instead of BL or Bishop Dunne solely for the Panther's football program. Texas would definitely have the inside-track if and when it comes to that.
  13. According to my kids I’m not even “Dad Joke” funny anymore
  14. I volunteer to drive. I've done a rally driving course.
  15. They also had Art Monk and the "Fun Bunch." Don't sell yourself short, @closetojumping. You're a tremendous slouch.
  16. I thought he looked more like Tommy Chong, myself.
  17. Madoff investments must have finally paid off. Pop Quiz: An employee of mine grew up with a former Astro and sent me this old Little League picture from their home town newspaper. He should be pretty easy to name once you i.d. the correct player. Peace, Merry Christmas, and Happy Repeat to all!
  18. And fuck the Immaculate Deflection off Frenchy Fuqua.
  19. My experience with the French during travel there has been quite the opposite of that. First trip my brother made there was a backpacking trip. He had a Texas flag sewn on his pack and while sitting in a train station he was approached by an older gentlemen that recounted a story about being saved from execution by the Germans right after D-Day by U.S. soldiers that were accompanied by tankers with Texas flags on their antennas or painted on their tanks. My brother cut the patch off and gave it to him.
  20. Is it too late to get on the Gunter bandwagon?
  21. Jimmy Chitwood ain't walking through that door! Any testimony the daughters could offer about BSC's pattern of behavior would certainly be probative if Beard doesn't plead out and he's actually prosecuted. But he'll have been living and possibly coaching elsewhere by then.
  22. He could sue. He could then drag that litigation out for months or more than a year before Texas would have enough to file a no evidence motion for summary judgment or settle financially. In the meantime, it remains in the news cycle while we cross our fingers that his counsel doesn't complete a Hail Mary and find records in discovery where the University allowed an employee to keep their job after having been arrested and charged with a similar felony.
