  1. Maybe the saddest thing about aggy is that the vast majority of their time is spent trying to compare themselves to us, usually with excuses about mistreatment unfairly causing them to fall short... while our references to them are 99.9999999999% of the form "I could use a good laugh, let's see what aggy is up to."
  2. Yeah, I'd like to see this story turn out well... I think a lot of us feel this way. I don't suppose Sark would consider a second third chance? But it might be worth a look - let him in Summer School, work out with teammates, see if it's a real change. Would be a hell of a thing if it worked out.
  3. They're just making sure they've got Jimbo lined up, for when Day loses to Meatchicken yet again. Larry Ellison gonna write that check.
  4. You've spelt panty pages incorrectly.
  5. This probably belongs in the Stoopid Kweschuns thread, but... Is there a Miz Billy to comfort our boy after a hard day banning customers?
  6. One of the bestest names available. Gotta hire a guy from aggy, name sounds like a dog choking...
  7. In baseball's long seasons, there are must-win games and there are games that are good to win, but no big deal if not. Schloss appears to be coaching to get the team better, rather than killing himself trying to win every single game. Things are so much better this season. My camping is full of happiness.
  8. Can't lie... Coogs or no, the outcome gruntled the fuck outta me.
  9. Poultry Pimp is good, but too many syllables. I'ma go with "Fowl Pimp". Looks like we're headed for a bigger band here, though, so maybe just "The Pimps"?

    Getting old sucks

    Welp... new plastic lens in my right eye seems to have settled in pretty well. Opto said 20-50 last Wednesday - and acted as though that's a surprisingly Good Thing... and I'm gruntled. It's even better now, so the gruntling continues. Left eye next week. That one's been 20-300 forever, and functionally worse when you add in AMD and cataract to the major astigmatism. I'll be happy if it just stays close enough that I can still read without specs. I've read left-eyed my entire life, and I'd just as soon be able to nod off while reading without having to worry about specs... Excelsior.
  11. Ðhat is a þorny problem, fer sher.
  12. This, right here. Soda, pop, soda pop, coke, cocola... I gave up and commenced to calling it "fizzy water"...
  13. First, proper plural is "yous" (spent time in Northeast Yankeeland). Second, "ye" appears to be an ongoing copying error. The actual word in original documents was ðe, using the symbol "eth", which is a "hard" or "voiced" th-sound, as in this, that, and other, but not with. The transliteration of a "y" in place of the "eth" is understandable. Thees and thous in the bible translations attest that the mis-take was not universal.
  14. Heisman Calibur is a decent band name, for a football town. You've spelt scoth incorrectly.
  15. Quite a lot of really excellent choices here. I approve of most of them as "Greats". But the top... Never a doubt: it's Carlin.
  16. No one knows, and/or no one's telling. For $9.95, some one will tell you some thing.
  17. Wrong. The discussion would be far mnore appropriate in the Quinn Ewers thread.
  18. Timeline notwithstanding, history will show that the truly great Artist of the Twentieth Century was Salvador Dalí. There was no Gala - it was always Miz Armybrat.
  19. It's why we celebrate your oeuvre.
