GM's thread about nothing (32 Viewers)

[Leroy Hoard]

Here you go

OK, this is one of the funniest things I've seen in weeks. But I didn't want to hype it

Mr & Mrs Frosty - Fri - Mon - I am accepting donations to install a webcam in Ms Frosty's bathroom

well this is a new development

YSR & Romo - Fri - Mon Confirmed prepreggers and will be official designated driver. Have not spoken to her in a long time, but I'm not downgrading her to a fencesitter.

I can't remember if I have said this in this thread or not, but I was enjoying a nice bottle of wine on my back deck that night we talked. Pretty sure I found out I was pregnant the next day. Sorry, baby.Anyway, I actually had it in mind to update our status today. I talked with Romo yesterday and we are "in". He's really excited about it - said it seems like a fun weekend (I showed him the original itinerary that you put together several weeks back). There are some logistical things we need to work out, though. He'll be traveling a lot for work during that time so I don't really know what to do about flights at the moment. Also, for various reasons (one of which being my current inability to consume copious amounts of rum before boarding a flight) we might tack on another day and drive. And I don't know about lodging, either - would love to stay at Casa de Albert, but not sure it makes financial sense to do so (esp since he's not much of a drinker and I can't drink). I will let you know as soon as I can on that, cos.

Oh, and I'm totally on board with being a DD. I should be over this stupid fatigue thing by then, and I feel certain that there is a tremendous enjoyment I will get from being the sober person driving a hammered GM around Austin.

Sorry baby

Its okay darling. lets talk tonight.

 

[belljr]

this is a total look at me and it will get lost in the other posts but I got an offer on the job I interviewed for and I'm just really excited

So they sent me an offer, I talked with the hr lady friday and negotiated some things. She said she would get back to me today. So usually how do these negotiations take place. The last time I negotiated a salary and the guy pretty much said ok we can do that on the spot. Just curious do I wait a couple days, a week? about following up. I know they are not pulling the offer as what I asked for was not out of line.Just curious, not stressed... TIAI'm not the greatest at job switching as you can tell.

 

[guru_007]

It's possible the person that makes that decision was unavailable today.

I would say it would not be out of line to contact her tomorrow a.m. to see where things stood, as she said she would get back to you today.

Today wasn't very eventful in Kristagua. Julio and I went shopping. Walked the 6 or 7 blocks then caught a cab back. He brought some kind of glorious food with him. It was like fried pieces of chicken with cole slaw. That's not doing it justice, as it was delicious. I may have corrupted him by turning him on to the Wonder Of Nature that is Sambuca. Plus he had like 3 rum and cokes. Showed me pics of his kid (adorable) and invited me to have dinner with his family later in the week. I've noticed that, if the door is open, people have no issues walking up and trying to sell you something. First was a guy on a bike selling water. I think Isaac Newton's head would've exploded if he could've seen the way this guy had 5 gallon bottles of water balanced on the bike. The next visit is the one I regret not extending. Two chicks selling religion. I only caught a glimpse of one, but talking evangelical chick was a cutie. I was running around doing #### and wasn't thinking about shtick potential.

Hmmm, I've never seen Julio drink more than two beers, usually just one. You're a bad influence!

Oh. The fireworks have never stopped. When I say "never", I mean it literally. K4/OH, the furniture you guys picked out is wonderful. I love high tops. Did you have it made?

The house (like pretty much all houses in Nicaragua) came with its furniture, but I hated most of it and gave it to Julio. The high table and chairs and the round table are all that's left of the original sala furniture, but damn do I love that high table.

I had to threaten Julio to stay away after he said he was at the hospital (says its ok) I am now CIA and can make your family disappear.

I have no idea what this means.

Bob we should get our wives to make out to teach Gadzooks a lesson.

I think it means Uruk has "gone *****" on us.

I don't know what that means either.I did have an e-mail from Julio 1/2 hour or so ago, so I know he's not dead. Should I be worried?

I meant that Uruk might be "going native" on us. Turning into a Nicaraguan with poor English skills.

My grandfather passed away last night. Which means that, although neither death was completely unexpected, my dad lost both his parents in the last two months.

Sorry to hear. I hope you have a good dose of your mom's genes.

 

[Frostillicus]

I read this last week and I keep finding myself thinking about it randomly and laughing.

Friend is in a bar in Chicago during the off-season. He goes to the bathroom and sees Jay Cutler, hat on backwards, taking a piss at the urinal. So the guy starts going to the bathroom and says, “Hey, I’m a huge fan, also went to Vanderbilt… ” Jay throws his head back, still pissing, eyes half-closed because he’s drunk, interrupts him with, “DOOOONNNNTTTTTT CAAAAAARRRREEEEEE.” So now I can’t stop yelling, “DOOOOONNNNTTTTT CAAAARRRREEEEE.”

 

[Frostillicus]

Dang. Sorry Bentley.

 

[phishphan]

sorry to hear, bent

I don't care what the rest of the world thinks...I love Jay Cutler. The more people dislike him or criticize him the more I dig him.

Totally agree. A lot of players have said things like, "I don't care what the media or fans think" but Cutler actually means it and I love him for it.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Does Al Michaels think he does a good Cosell impression?I'm pretty sure he does, but it could be shtick. Based on his conversation with Bill Simmons about a year ago on the latter's podcast, no one loves Al more than Al.

I didn't know there were people that didn't like Al Michaels.

I think he's the best broadcaster of all time, but that comes with a "#### don't stink" attitude.

Well that's what happens when you're the best at something I guess.

Sucks for your Dad, bentley.Sad to say, it isn't unusual for older men to pass shortly after their wives.

Sorry for the loss. That sucks. Honest question/comment: maybe rethink your Mack brown hatred and go enjoy the game with your dad? Life is short you know...

Serious response - the last time that dad and I went to a postseason game together was that Mackbortion cluster#### that was the 2001 Big XII title game when Mack Brown and Chris Simms pissed a golden national title game opportunity right down their legs against a Colorado team they had thumped earlier in the year. The best thing about that game was watching a Texas fan in our section get a boost up into a luxury box to engage in a fistfight with another Texas fan.So, no.

Fair enough. I was not patronizing you. My brother and I took our dad to wriggles on Labor Day. Best experience he ever had with the two of us. He liked it so much we are going to Fenway this year. As for me, it made me realize that we are all three getting older and there are some things I wished we'd done in years past.

WTF is Wriggles? Wrigley Field? If so, has to be the worst nickname ever.

We already spend all weekend tailgating together when Texas plays at home. My bucket list thing to do is take him to see Hayes Carll play at a festival. He's never done it and mom would never go with him.

Yeah, and then he mAnaged to get "out of town" before I could complain to him.
