GM's thread about nothing (42 Viewers)

For those watching this game...please understand what it's like being the 2nd most talented team in the country for the past 10ish years but being coached by a complete buffoon

If you want to lose that sig now, I'll never mention it again. If not, I expect full disclosure all season.

 
And tonight I am NOT making out with one of the hottest girls on the planet. Apparently that was just a yesterday kind of thing.

Srsly, she's insanely hot.

And totally f'ing crazy.

Strong possibility I'm gonna marry this girl.

Here's how bad New Mexico State is: They were up 7-0 with three minutes left in the first half. Yet, they were unable to cover a 44-point spread. :lmao:

 
I'm really not so sure what to do with the fact that the UW Huskies don't look like utter hunks of crap against a ranked team.

 
Mornin', folks.

I went to a cookout yesterday and had a blast. A friend/coworker bought a place way the hell up in the mountains that fronts a 30 acre lake. Both the house & the lot are gorgeous. And my air mattress contraption filler-thing worked! While the user was drunk! And the erstwhile drunk air-mattress-filler-upper is now mixing up a Bloody Mary!

 
Tennessee with a huuugggeeeee win. Not many teams could handle Austin peay but we did it. Now, I just hope Oregon, Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, and Georgia know what's coming their way... :football:

 
Pretty sure there are a few people left who haven't checked in with easily findable information regarding their alma mater/college of choice and how they fared in their "football" contest this weekend. Please check in ASAP.

 
I have one of those plastic, 80 gallon compost barrels. Anything organic besides meat, I throw in. Every so often, I'll scoop some of the compost out & put it in my planter boxes. About 6 weeks ago, I noticed a tomato plant growing in one of the boxes. So I eventually transplanted it into a big pot and put it on my deck to see if it would take. As I write, there are 42 baby cherry tomatoes and about 12,000 blooms on the damned thing. I had to tie some of the stems against the deck pickets to keep the weight from breaking them down (probably shouldn't have hit it so hard with Miracle-Gro at the start; makes it grow faster than the plant can strengthen). Have no idea if any will actually come in ripe before rotting or dying of the chemicals I dowsed them with.

 
I headed to the cabin this weekend with a buddy of mine who's been pretty depressed lately (chicks, man). Yesterday we got up and went fishing for a few hours, then played on the beach with my kids. Then we went to the meat raffle in town where we hit both a $105 and $210 pull-tab winner, won some meat, and ended up hanging out with a group of five ladies (ages from 22 up to mid-forties) where we ended up buying them two rounds and they bought us two rounds of shots. When they left, I mentioned that the 22 year old and my buddy should exchange numbers since they both live in Minneapolis and sure enough, he got her number. That night when we were drinking by the fire he said thanks for the invite to the cabin and that that day was exactly what he needed. Pretty cool.

Yeah, part of my accidental farmership vis a vis compost not only resulted in glorious yellow and green gourds, but SEVERAL tomato plants, which we transplanted into the back yard and have marvelled at their overall health and yield. Will be plenty of fresh tomatoes for pasta sauce. Pretty excited about this and it all came from farting around with compost. The gourds are hilarious. My neighbors have been picking them and taking them home for decorations and whatnot. I'm going to learn how to make a bong out of them.

Sounds like a perfect day to me. You'd be a fun guy to pal around with.

 
GM....the CU/CSU game is on a channel by CBS named CBSSN (sports network I guess). I get it in standard def only so that sucks, but at least I get it. HTH.

Bentley draft crisis averted. Our hero worked through it with me via text message after Damon's effort to use google hangout failed. All in all my team is pretty good considering.

Stafford / russel Wilson

Forte / Lamar miller / mendebhall / matthews

Vjax / jordy / shorts / Britt / thompkins.

Gronk.

Looking good :thumbup:

Yup, found it. Thanks GB! I am watching it on a low def tv, so all well here. :bag:

Well, not the result so far. Gambling. I hate it.

It really wasn't all that bad. Glad that it worked out for you.

Great weekend with high school buddies in town, tailgate, Longhorn game and the fantasy draft. I'm going to sleep hard tonight.

 
So tonight towards the end of my almost nightly 4 mile walk (aka The SLB Mini-Marathon to Find the Cure for Headvaginitus) I have to cross one of the busiest intersections in town.

The northwest corner of this intersection is a clearinghouse for protesters and sign wavers. This is the it. Home to Priest: The dancing cowboy/Little Cesar's Shiller. (personally I would rather see Cowboy: The Dancing Priest). Usually there are a couple of other sign-wavers pimping pay-day loans, tax services etc. There's even a guy that holds a sign for a locally owned pizza place too. It's cool though. He and Priest seem to have become friends. That makes me happy.

Anyway...tonight is Hippy Night on the corner. About once every 2 weeks a flock of about 10-20 hippies stand on the corner with crappy, handmade signs calling for peace and/or extolling the virtues of marijuana. By the time I hit the intersection there's only about 4 or 5 die-hards left.

Now don't get me wrong. I actually love seeing people on that corner protesting or promoting or whatever. I don't care if I agree with what you're saying. I'll honk dammit. Keep that First Amendment alive and well, my friends. Although on the opposite corner there's this really scary looking anti-abortion lady that shows up about once a month. She likes to set up posters of dead babies and such. F her.

But I digress...

There were two youngish dudes that look like they're about to audition for the one man show featuring the wit and wisdom of Shannon Hoon. Then there's a zaftig girl sitting on the grass lettering out a sign that says "Don't Burn a Flag...Burn a Fatty". Which is both ironic and totally confusing. And then there's a guy in his 50s with a nicely braided, grey ponytail.

As I walk by Ponytail says, with a slight drawl, "how y'all doin'?" I almost answered "Damon?" (to be fair I'm pretty the drawl was much more Okie than Texan but whatever).

Ponytail is holding a sign that says 'YES WE CAN-I-BUS' (I wish I was making this up), and yelling out to the passing cars, "IT'S JUST A PLANT, HELLO?!?". And somehow his drawl is gone and now sounds like a Jewish comedian at Caroline's circa 1998.

So I'm waiting for the light to change while all this is happening. The little green walking guy shows up on the lighty thing and I step into the crosswalk. Before I can even take a step this guy in a very nice Mercedes almost runs into me on his way to a making a right hand turn.

He stops. I stop. I give him the international sign for "oh, go ahead. By all means." I actually did want him to go since it is obvious that I cannot trust his judgement and now fear walking in front of his car. He starts to go but then slams on the brakes.

Now he's suddenly got a case of the good citizenships and is waiting for me. Again I motion for him to "just F-ing go since you've already raped my crosswalk".

It's somewhere about the time he slams on the brakes when my new friends, the hippies, decide to join in.

One of the guys from Blind Melon/Kyuss tribute band yells out "SLOW DOWN, YOU FASCIST!"

Ponytail joins in with "NICE NAZI CAR, YOU JERK!"

Mr. Benz looks at me like I'm the one yelling at him and floors it down Stockdale Highway pretty much running the redlight at the intersection of Carl's Jr and Post Office.

FIN
6.99 for a Hot and Ready??!?!?!
