    Section 129 was insane after he blocked field goal... lots of beer being sprayed into the air 

    This is correct, complete pandemonium and a great turning point in the game. Some dude brought a watermelon into the student section and handed it around during score celebrations. How does that happen with all the security checks these days?

    Yeah-  If where my head hits the pillow at night is in question......I'm making the reservations.

    So much this.  I've traveled enough in my career to make sure these logistics points are totally covered before I depart.

    We need to replace our kitchen faucet set and can't find a direct replacement.  We have a girl who is an interior designer/decorator that's worked on the house before,  so I told my wife to get her to look at it and come up with a replacement that would look appropriate and fit in the space.  (My fucking fault here)

    I came home last week to the same faucet........and 4 pages of sketches converting our bedroom/bath and an adjacent guest room/bath into one master suite with sitting room, shoe closet, makeup counter...all that bullshit.  

    All I wanted was a glass of water from the faucet.

     

    Leader in the clubhouse for the last 5 pages or so, though actually may need to go to the Stupid husbands thread instead.

    Chilis

    Olive Garden

     

    Both are like raiding the frozen aisles at your local grocery store.  Meh, at best with zero personality in the food.  Total dogshit for the price.

    CSB:  we had a big client meeting in Singapore with some Thais, Americans, and other nationalities.  Our local sales guy (American) chose to take us all out to eat on the wrap up night at...........Chilis.  Are you kidding me?  All the world class food in Singapore...

    and this other time?  We were needing a quick lunch in Lima, Peru, and........Subway. 

  5. Been eating Herd’s since the early 80’s. Great burgers. Double meat double cheese for the win!  Always stopped there on the way to Austin from Wichita Falls.

    The Jester and other comments about the top 10% are interesting....as we work to promote diversity (socio-economic background, etc) are we actually ending up with other singularities (personality types, etc).  Maybe, maybe not. Obviously anecdotal comments don't prove jack shit, but you hear these kinds of comments a lot from students and parents of students at UT these days...even from some of them who have the loner, dork savant who they were hoping would be rounded by the college experience.

    Moved my daughter (no pics) into Jester East on Saturday.  My completely non scientific assessment was that it looked a lot like the United Nations.  All colors represented.

    Looking ahead to next year, its pretty much going to be Sterns and Jones as the returning starters. I'm worried about DL next year. Secondary gonna still be pretty awesome. 

    Man, maybe we can have the first snap of this year before we start agonizing over depth issues next year.

  8. I went 8-4. Seems like the team is generally better than last year with a full season and two off seasons under Mensa. Not totally sold on the Mensa regime however.  I may get negged off the board for this but this staff evokes the same excitement in me as the Mackovic staff did, which is not much, really a lot of meh.  They’ll win some they shouldn’t, lose some brain dead games but beat most of who they should.  A little better than last year, but I would love to be wrong and we run the table.
