At 9 or 10 we would ride our bikes on a busy highway a couple of miles to get to the fireworks stand. Then see who could light them and throw it in the air with just enough wick left so it would explode in the air and rain confetti. Whenever one of our parents saw this they'd give us a stern lecture along the lines of "hey be careful" I'm with these other parents that are amazed their kids never really grabbed that freedom. About 2 weeks before my daughter was set to leave for college, she begged for permission to take a road trip to visit a friend that had already enrolled in school. I just said "why are you asking me stupid shit, you're 18, just always have a sober driver."

We got it squared. Our son had several scholarships that were trickling in, so we pulled a small loan just to let those pan out. After we repaid it in early October, they had some sort of system-wide glitch. UT sent back the loan money to the lender (not sure how that works), then pulled a lesser amount available for us, then claim we owed the balance. We straightened it out, paid the balance, which we now are owed by the lender. It's ridiculous, but it's handled and we, ultimately, didn't owe anything. So dumb.

I watched the second set today in singles where he came back from being down 5-2 in the 2nd. He has that dog in him. We would have won the national championship last year if he weren't redshirted. Sucks

I doubt the Jean family would do this, but with that kind of judgment, if they kept it alive (it will only last 10 years unless they take some action), they could destitute Guyger periodically for the rest of her life.

Cristobal turned OV weekend timing into clock management.
