  1. To be fair, filling Mrs. NNM’s car with gas is something I’m happy to do. I make a point to quietly do it when I can. It’s one small thing I can do to make her life easier, and gas stations are not always safe for ladies.
  2. We had our SSNs printed on our college student IDs back in the 80s. It was common to have them pre-printed on your checks too.
  3. You can leave the fixtures in place and just bypass the ballast. Super, super easy rewiring on the appliance itself. I replaced all the fluorescents in my garage with these, and it was quick and easy, following their directions. No extra parts needed. These are now out of stock, but I’m sure there are plenty of updated models. Get the right size. Pull one of your existing fluorescent bulbs and the size will be printed on it. https://a.co/d/crA76e9
  4. My celebrity crushes swing in the opposite direction, but he is a handsome man. Good for you.
  5. Sure, if you enjoy stepping in duck poop on the deck and swimming in duck poop in the pool.
  6. Repeat failure in the downtown Doubletree St. Louis. Because I slept poorly, I did not remember yesterday’s debacle and as I woke up, I let out the customary morning release. Gaseous liquid. Nice stain on the sheets for housekeeping. PRO tip: don’t stay at the downtown Courtyard in St. Louis.
  7. Out of the top 25 in Baseball America. https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/college-baseball-top-25-rankings/# Two snippets: Three teamsβ€”preseason No. 1 Texas A&M (10-9; 0-3 SEC), Mississippi State (13-7; 0-3 SEC) and UC Santa Barbara (15-4; 4-2 Big West)β€”fell out of the Top 25. 5. Texas Previous ranking: No. 9 Last week: 4-0 Overall: 17-1, 3-0 in SEC (4-0 vs. Top 25) Weekend record: 5-0 Results March 11: UT Arlington; W 7-4 March 14: @ No. 22 Mississippi State; W 8-7 March 15: @ No. 22 Mississippi State; W 5-3 March 16: @ No. 22 Mississippi State; W 4-1 Upcoming March 18: UTSA March 21: No. 2 LSU March 22: No. 2 LSU March 23: No. 2 LSU Texas has won 17 consecutive games following a midweek win over UT-Arlington and a weekend sweep at then-No. 22 Mississippi State in its first-ever SEC series. Catcher Rylan Galvan homered three times and drove in four over the weekend and righty Max Grubbs earned his fourth save of the year on Sunday with 3.1 scoreless innings. Texas head coach Jim Schlossnagle has brought with him a great deal of early success in his first season in Arlington*, though the group’s momentum will be tested this week with a midweek matchup against a solid UTSA team and weekend series at home against No. 2 LSU. *I did not know the flagship UT had moved to Arlington.

  9. Big inflatable in your pool may help
  10. Doc has me on keto diet to address a number of issues, including hopefully helping the acute claustrophobia I’ve developed the last year that prevents me from getting on a plane. Includes MCT oil and AMPK Charge+ supplement. There should be black box warning on these supplements: When taking, never trust a fart. Rented a Tesla for a cross-country work trip. Because I cannot fly. White Model Y, white interior. Went to church, left right after. About to pull on the interstate. Let a small, innocuous-feeling fart out. That wasn’t a fart. Immediately pulled into McDs to check the damage, waddled into the men’s room, cleaned up, confirmed it had gone right through the underwear and pants. Got back to the car and yep, right on the pristine white leather seat too. Fortunately I was only 30 minutes away from home. Drove back, chucked the pants and underwear, took a shower, re-dressed, sanitized seat, on my way. Dropped liquid in a truck stop somewhere in NE Tx and now again in an outlet mall bathroom in Little Rock. It’s seriously like colonoscopy prep.
  11. The darkest day in TAMU history is not killing 12 of your students through gross negligence in homage to β€œtradition.” Nope, the darkest day in Aggie history is losing a coach to big brother. Disgusting.

  13. We’re in complete agreement. That’s my point. They SHOULD have made a smart hire. They couldn’t because they had just been blindsided by big brother (and no high profile coaches wanted the job). So they made a stupid emotional decision driven by the players. Now they’re facing consequences.
  14. Fun satire story.
  15. Et tu, brute?
  16. Or maybe a good coach brings out the best in his players, while a coach that is one year removed from being a GA has no idea how to balance being a player’s buddy with being a hardass and demanding excellence. Seems like something that an AD should consider when hiring a coach to take over a team that finished in the CWS finals.

  18. Gary Patterson isn’t with UT anymore.
