  1. I got so drunk w/ @Jameslaw121 I don't even recall him leaving sometime during the game.  I threw a 10 second bitch fit after the last play.  The thing that stings, at least to me, is that I was pretty confident about a potential Michigan matchup.  I have no special skills or insight as to why, I just felt very confident in that potential matchup.  After they won, I mentally switched from, "OK.  You're preseason expectations have been met" to "Fuck it, let's win the whole thing".  

    I did enjoy being relevant again and hearing the pundits discuss Texas for 6 weeks - especially during the aggy game.

    These are awesome.  I just started realizing that I also do some of the same things made fun of here and in the Progressive ads.  A couple of weeks ago, I put $20 in some random machine in Vegas, but it was broken, so I cashed out.  When I approached the window, I said, "I hope you have enough in the drawer to cash this big boy out."  A couple of tellers turned their heads to check out my "winnings" and came away unimpressed.   I walked away thinking, "Crap.  I'm what they're laughing at in the Progressive ads".

    Target rich environment. 

    Correct.  I did 6 trainings.  In addition to what I've already mentioned, I also had to deal with one teacher that swore my picture of a lengua taco wasn't lengua because it wasn't barbacoa.  I responded by stating that I just did a search for "lengua tacos" and did not check my source once the pic was found.  That actually cracked up the rest of the group.  I had another that went to one of the AI sites that I mentioned, but couldn't get it to work.  Granted 30 other teachers were on the exact same site w/o an issue, so it had to be something with her laptop.  I'm not saying this was the issue, but she had a bunch of silly stuff added to her laptop - oversized cursor that was about 3 inches in length, butterflies popping up when you press a button, etc...  It's not that I don't want to help.  It's just... Look around you.  If 30 computers are working and your computer is not working, it's probably something with your computer.  The way she spoke, it was if I sent her to a sketchy Surly link from "I'd pee in her butt".

  4. Yesterday I was presenting to a class full of teachers.  As far as the teaching profession goes, it's quite common to leave candy out at the table or desks.  So, I put three bags of candy on the sign-in table.  Just as I'm about to speak, this random woman comes up holding the bag of Almond Joys.  

    Me: Is everything ok?

    Her:  I'm allergic to almonds.

    Me - knowing full well I can't go Surly on this chick: Oh, ok.  I'll just put the bag over here.

    I mean, seriously?  If it means that much to you, don't touch the fucking candy.  Or, better yet, don't pick up the fucking bag and bring it to me.  I'm honestly not sure what moving the bag about 5 feet did for this chick.  My son also has a tree nut allergy, so this isn't a rant against folks with allergies.
