    I was there too, except it was at the Coliseum.  As was Neuheisel's 50-0 pasting.  I'm a glutton for punishment.

    Okay, then I've got the wrong pasting....mine was @ the Rose Bowl...

    Edit - Was the 2002 game, which was "only" 52-21....great birthday present....

      UCLA then ended the season getting pasted something like 66-17 by USC.

    Yup...Left my wife and mom in the Rose Bowl about half way into the third quarter, and went out to the truck to drain the bar...

    Wife drove home.

    Done a bit of research and have seen several options for other activities, but curious if anyone here has recs for stuff to do that time of year. 

    Virginia City is a touristic  old western town down the hill in Nevada, and you can float the Truckee River....can't call it whitewater rafting. Truckee has good fly fishing. Patagonia outlet down the hill in Sparks, next to Reno...I always stop in when I'm passing through, never leave empty handed.

    What does the Ohio bottle look like? The $50 bottles have a gold cap. 

    The old bottles have a red cap. 

    Ohio $$4.95 bottles have the gold foil with a cork. The California Total Wine $22.95 bottles have red  plastic wrap with a screw top.

  5. If  I may travel back a couple of pages and ask a question about the electoral college....the discussion inspired me to go to the '270 to win' website, where I saw both Maine and Nebraska had a striped graphic, and notes that explain that these states have 'split electoral votes' with state and district votes coming into play. How does that work, and why are these two state different from the rest?  Thanks

    Mine doesn’t slope enough to the drain. So it takes a lot of water and effort to get everything down the drain. I miss my old side by side. But it’s the trend. No fighting the trend. It does look nicer.

    What kind?

    Ummm...I see we have 2 threads by the same person on the same topic....

    Planning on taking my wife to DC and show here what our nation was founded on, with a side trip to Gettysburg....recommended books for background...?

    "The Killer Angels" by Michael Shaara.

    It's listed as fiction?

    I can't understand how this is possible... but California...

    Me too....wife was amazed at how excited I was...and how quickly I grabbed it off the shelf.  This is the same market that had 12 bottles of Blanton's on the shelf.  I went up to the manager to see how many bottles I could buy, and he gave me a strange look and asked "well, how much money do you have?"
