GM's thread about nothing (34 Viewers)

I just saw a manatee up close for the first time. Holy damn those things are ugly.
They are the speed bumps of FL rivers. Had one almost tip me in my kayak once.
Yeah, they're all over the place up here. We live on the Intracoastal Waterway, and this guy just came right up to our dock. I took video of it but have been forbidden from uploading it because there is water running from a hose, and apparently it's illegal to give water to them. I was unaware of that until 10 minutes ago. My super paranoid husband apparently thinks that animal rights activists just comb through Youtube looking for incidents such as this. :mellow:
 
My "Have to drink with" list1. Homer2. SLB3. TF4. Zooks5. TRE/Frosty**Tre will be taken off this list since I will drink wtih him.
:wub:
Serisously was there any doubt?Edit1. Homer2. SLB3. GM4. TF5 ZooksDishonerable mention>TRE>But I plan on driking myself silly with TRE in about a month
Damn...bumped down already :kicksrock:
At least you made the list. :kicksrock:

Prolly not a bad idea to be paranoid about that IMO. Always see them at Weeden Island and Crystal River of course. I live down the road from a TECO power plant and I have seen 100+ there in "Winter". Big tourist spot.
 
I will will this team to victory if it kills me. My voice is shot after every game and last week, I pulled some sort of butt muscle leaping in the air attempting to chest bump my taller assistant coach.
:thumbup: Sounds like me. I about had an aneurism yesterday "coaching" (yelling) at my son's game.
You guys make me feel a little better about myself when I used to coach my daughters little league softball team.I was very vocal and animated myself.My wife and I went to watch a few games this year now that my daughter is umping and not playing anymore. It was so quiet. I asked my wife if it was that quiet when I was coaching. One of my former players parents turns around and says, "Not when you were coaching, I think the people across the street could hear you" I was :bag: but then she said, "not at all, you were the best coach any of these kids could have had. Everyone wanted to be on your team. This league misses you" Yea, my ego grew a little bit....
 
holy crap. drunk from last night, when I got in at 4:30. Cos laughed at me and left. I'm pretty sure I destroyed any chance of solidifying the groundwork I've been doing with 26 year old girl that I've been seeing in recent weeks, but may or may not have hooked up with her roommate last night, if only I could remember. Drunktexted at 8 this morning, with no response (because there's no way she's awake). Think I just shot myself in the foot with both. Need to sober up just to drive to bar to watch football with seattleites. I'm a disaster.
I like this guy.
 
Every time I come in this thread there's always exactly one guest reading it:2 User(s) are reading this topic1 members, 1 guests, 0 anonymous users :unsure: IRS? DEA? Bryant Boats? Henreich Himmler? Colonel Flagg? Mata Hari?
If any of you see this during late night and very early morning excursions, it is likely me. I do not log on from work, but frequently catch up on all of your zany exploits sometime between the hours of 10pm pst and 7am pst. Then again, I do work for the Government...never can be too sure.

Agree, this is good stuff. BTW, what trait or characteristic actually allows an I-person to overcome the initial fear of their first cornhole experience? Can just any I-curious person still maintain a happy face towards the world after such an interaction? Can you take it all in while just quietly absorbing the situation once you have realized that you were powerless to resist such charm? Is it shame, or glory having this cherry picked? Does it depend on the person? I had two chances to meet Wilked out here in the Middle East and I didn't do it. If I was still rolling with a joke I would say that it was because I was about to be a party favor for a group that had not seen even an ankle for nearly 3 months. In reality I tried to offer my limited knowledge on the community after asking folks that actually get out, my home, and any libations I could provide. Nothing I offered was required, yet I was invited out to join up with Wilked on two occasions. Seems like a great guy (and being selfish for a minute, one who could be a good connection towards a job once I move on from here). I instead protected my virtue against a guy offering nothing more than a "dutch" lunch at an airport cafe.A GM cornhole in my backyard (tee-hee) certainly caught my interest. Then again, I am currently living my life through this thread and weekly skype conversations with my wife and daughter. I am deeply depressed (worst in my life and something that is unfortunately shared with many of those fighting in theater). I am not fighting in theater, I "just" send bad news home. If I could go back to ducking jet exhaust and prop wash on a carrier deck 12 hours a day, I would jump on it in an instant.Hey, sorry about the depression. Here is something cute.www.kittywithatophat.org
 
Hey all, this is Pigskin P posting with a friends account since I can't seem to remember my password. Cornholin with cosjobs, Britney spears, drifter and rover. Have pics but can't figure out how to post em. These guys are the #### and I'm glad to finally meet them in person.

 
I apologize for the poor posting and not sticking to just lurking, my "baby" girl turned 12 today and I once again missed it. :(

Please continue with the regularly scheduled program.

sounds like a successful night for a single guy :shrug:

Where was shuke for the last month?
Just busy with real life stuff. Traveled some for work. Had to put our dog down. Really busy at work.
Sorry to hear that GB. :(
Thanks man. Hardest part was digging her grave while she was alive. It was a Sunday and we were hoping she could get through the day so we could take her to our vet the next day, but that night she couldn't even stand and hadn't moved all day. I had to take her to an emergency place late that night, and they were very kind and thoughtful about the whole thing.

Hang in there man, and thanks for what you're doing for your country. I know a number of people around here have suffered through clinical depression. Don't be afraid to speak up more often.
 
The amiable conviviality of those encountered thus far is surpassed only by their ability to consume vast amounts of alcohol.

 
I'm working on putting up some pics but am having as much trouble emailing myself the pictures as I had emailing anyone else.

Who is getting the congratulations? Roverfish for apparently making out with his target's friend and still getting friendly texts from the target the next day or Britjosh for having a wife who is about to pop out a kid?

I am proud to say that I am probably one of the few people who can say that I cornholed with Cosjobs for over 8 hours before going shopping with him at Costco.

And I'm off to buy a raccoon trap. Heard thumps in the garage and the milk jug in the recycling bin has been gnawed. Not a good start to the week.

Happy Monday everyone.

Diet Update: 3 weeks into the contest, 7 weeks left, I'm down 12.2 pounds. My partner is down 5 pounds and we are 7 pounds ahead of the next best team. Like taking candy from a baby.

Baseball Update: We had a doubleheader on Saturday and won both of them, 4-0, 18-14. After 3 games and 3 practices now, I have figured out my team, both at the plate and on the field, and after seeing 3 of the other 4 teams in our league, I can say we are as good or better than any other team out there. I only have one real flower picker where the other teams have 3-4. I have two kids that can catch AND throw and that is twice as many as anyone else. I'm rotating players to infield and outfield, letting kids play where they want, and it's all working out. The biggest advantage I have is a Dad who can pitch to these kids.

 
Soccer team update:Week 1: 3-1 loss after skating to a 0-0 tie at the half.Week 2: 7-2 loss after being notched up 2-2 at the half.Week 3: 2-2 tie after being tied 1-1 at the half. We let a goal to through with just seconds left on the clock. :hot: Week 4: 10:30am game at the pitch. I have agreed to shave only half my facial hair if we win. And Boston Coolers for all after practice on Monday.I will will this team to victory if it kills me. My voice is shot after every game and last week, I pulled some sort of butt muscle leaping in the air attempting to chest bump my taller assistant coach.
What's a Boston Cooler?
Non-alcoholic Cleveland Steamer

Scoop of vanilla ice cream with Vernors Ginger Ale. Quite tasty.
