  1. Back in the day I called those huge full size sedans “chrome barges”.
  2. Heh, in 1984 my Mom - something of a car snob - wanted a new 98 Olds with a vinyl roof, but Dad was kinda tight with a buck and bought the 88 instead. That didn’t sit well with her so Dad had the dealer install a white vinyl roof a month after the initial purchase. She was happy with that. After she passed away in 1992 Dad sold it for a pittance even though it had a little over 8,000 miles on the clock.
  3. There was a reason he became an alcoholic after moving to Tennessee.
  4. They are still pissed about Crockett & Houston portaling, not to mention flipping Simms.
  5. Saw this one posted on a gun forum…
  6. Somebody is using creative accounting for that list. Just football revenue is very telling…. https://www.collegeraptor.com/college-rankings/details/TopRevenue/
  7. That’s probably closer to the truth. 😄
  8. Heh, when my Dad was a teenager in rural northwest Missouri a century ago, one of the local residents was a CW veteran who had survived Andersonville. That old man had some interesting experiences to tell about. His arm had been amputated below the shoulder and the doctor put some maggots on the sutured wound to eat away the dead flesh which helped prevent gangrene. His tentmate had a shot out eye socket,and every morning Dad’s friend would urinate it so the uric acid would piss away infections.
  9. They should know by now that the propaganda spread by the Aggies is bullshit. Of course there will always be hate for the Great State of Texas from those tiny dick SEC hillbillies.
  10. First time back at Chuy’s all year. Chicken fajitas are still delicious, BUT……the flour tortillas must be store bought, as they are not nearly as good as those made on site by the little abuelas
  11. My former neighbor was roommates with Perry and they were also in the USAF flight school together. Neighbor was/is a nice guy and doesn’t talk aggy smack.
  12. My brother’s grandson has been an AFD emt & rescue firefighter for almost 20 years. A few years ago he & a colleague spent a half hour or so suspended out 100’ over Barton Creek on the end of their firetruck ladder in the middle of the night trying to fish with grappling hooks a drowned tuber’s body off the bypass drain just above the pool.
  13. So are my son and my brother.
  14. UT’s fight song mentions aggy once - briefly. The war hymn theme is totally about Texas.
  15. I’ll send y’all a nice upside down postcard.
