  1. Best wishes and prayers for a speedy recovery.
  2. Call me olds now although I like to think I’m great with technology. But how does this work with a current resume?
  3. So sorry to hear this. Praying she pulls through!
  4. Update: Happy to say everything is looking good with my wife. Surgery to remove the mass was done a few weeks ago up at MDA. Reconstructive work was done right after the surgeon removed the mass and everything looks great and healing nicely. Why this hasn't been a standard thing for women until recently is beyond comprehension. The mass responded very well to the Chemo blast. Not a trace of cancer remained in the tissue or what lymphs that were removed. She will do four weeks of radiation starting next week to insure not a speck of a cancer still remains which kind of sucks, but it's a walk in the park if you will compared to the weeks/months of chemo. Light is staring right at us as we are almost done with this chapter. She's ready to enjoy life again. Thanks to all who have commented and reached out. Means a ton!
  5. Funny thing this thread pops up. I'm looking for a job and as a 50 year old dude who always worked for companies that he had a part starting, it sucks in this new bot driven way resumes are screened. It's funny that corporate America bitches and moans about not being able to find hardworking prospects, but the bots and resume screening software platforms don't even get some of those people past the bullshit auto generated email thanking you for your application, but we've decided to move on, blah, blah, blah. Just complete Bullshit! Something is to be said of the old days of mailing a resume or doing drop in at their physical location. I was let go in August by the small aggregate supply company I went to work for back in April. The owner hired a Sales Manager who turned out to be a total fraud. But before he finally figured out what I and another former employee figured out from the day the clown took the job, he fired us. My BS detector went from smelling the BS to being hip deep in it with this guy within an a day of meeting him. He had to clear us out, because he knew we didn't buy his BS and this is without me even saying a word that he was full of it. Part of me is still a tad bitter, but I figured it was best for maybe to this to happen now instead of later because the Owner can't be the sharpest knife if he couldn't see what we saw. I got some leads, but dang a I wish one would close and give me a chance now.
  6. We'd be so lucky if we could sit on something like this.
  7. They were calling the Wyoming/ Fresno game on the Fox Network last Saturday.
  8. This thread needs a Susanna Hoffa of The Bangles break.
  9. We need to get them to be a game day sponsor on Surly.
  10. WV will be favored against OU? Uh, no....
  11. Not my mojo. Just noting how things have gone with the game. I’m with the group who wishes we d come out spitting nails and wanting to walk on fire and broken glass every time we play them.
  12. Right. Venables was at the top of the media’s list of the top Assistant coaches or non Power 5 Head Coaches who deserved a shot at a big time program much like Charlie Strong and Turtle Tom were when we hired them. It’s hard not to take the bait especially if you have more big money donors and decision makers who really don’t dig into the details and just hire on the media spin. Some work out like Kirby Smart at UGA. Other don’t like Charlie.
  13. Just noting that a coach winning the RR game doesn’t necessarily set the tone for future success and vice versa. Look at how many times Mack Brown got humiliated , but yet won the title after five straight and pretty humiliating loses. I thought we’d turn the page when we beat you guys in 2018 under Turtle Tom and that was a horrible miscalculation. I’m sure you could look back at your Sooner history and see the same.
  14. To be fair, Charlie did win one against you all and so did Turtle Tom….
  15. West Virginia will lose two of their upcoming games at the very least. They’ve won games, but not necessarily in dominating fashion.
  16. Didn’t UGA and Bama both go to the playoffs a few years back? One went with one loss due to H2H in the SEC championship. I mean it’s possible the Rig 12 could send two. If you look at who is ahead of us in the poll today the only two teams I think have a realistic shot at being undefeated at the end of the season is FSU and UGA. Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State still have to play each other . Ditto for USC, Oregon, and Washington. They all could have a circular firing squad and lose a game.
  17. Fuck wad Alan Eck from the 2015 OSU game is the Head Ref for the Cowboys/ 49er game. I’m glad the NFL has standards. Lol!
  18. Mine will be going Fed Ex Priority AM overnight. I want it on their desk at 8 AM tomorrow .
