  1. ok, well, candlesticks make a nice gift.
  2. Short trip for her from Stillwater to Norman.
  3. His temp forecasts this summer om twitter have been over the top, and he's aggy. I'm with the Asian Prius guy. Probably recognized him.
  4. See below for Princeton. It's true of the other top privates as well. They fund "poor" students via endowment income, and the corpus comes primarily from alumni donations. https://abc7news.com/princeton-university-free-tuition-ivy-league-financial-aid/12217156/
  5. This. Legacy = donors, and universities have whole armies of people dedicated to fundraising. That’s how many top privates can offer free tuition to poor and middle class students. Top schools, public or private, can’t survive without donors. Similar factors are at play with the type of stuff that forced Bill Powers out. Of course he’s gonna put his thumb on the scale when powerful politician X tells him to take a hard look at little Johnny Neerdowell. The wink, wink, nudge nudge is pretty obvious at that point. yes, this sucks and feels dirty.
  6. I see a high of 95 in the 10-day forecast boys. It's a fucking cold front!
  7. I don't really like my simulation. I mean it's fine I guess, but could I get the "male hetero porn star" simulation?
  8. Joan is awful > beyond the sea > Loch Henry > Demon 79 >>>>>> Mazey Day The first two I list are closest in spirit/thematically to the first few seasons. Overall, this season was much better than last, except for the Mazey Day one. It was utter shite, perhaps even worse than the Miley one.
  9. She's good, but that would seem a little underwhelming for Patty. She's more of an inning eater (kinda like Mac) and not a strikeout pitcher like Jordy. I could see Patty angling more for a swing and miss type. I don't follow Stanford much - I'm surprised Vawter is bailing.
  10. I enjoyed Joan is Awful. A mindfuck and classic black mirror. I also watched Mazey Day and it was shit - pretty lazy writing from Booker.
  11. This is becoming more and more common (runway incursions). Recall there was a near accident here in Austin recently. Most of the aviation bros I follow on YouTube blame ATC and say a fatal accident related to this seems almost inevitable.
  12. I read an article that Juneteenth has turned into a big travel weekend, so maybe that was part of it?
  13. When I was a kid, I don't remember sweet tea really being a thing in Texas (except maybe east Texas). It was always a deep south thing I thought. Now it's everywhere. And everyone's fat. And now we have global warming.
  14. that just sounds nasty.
  15. Maybe this will be the summer to convince all the carpetbaggers to leave.
  16. Jordy is still a gigantic douche in my book, but at least she had the decency to bail on her team right after the season with plenty of notice. As opposed to waiting right before the season to run off with her new significant other at the beach, and then transfer to our in conference rival. That's some low down bullshit.
  17. Did not see that coming. Gasso will just reload, as she always does.
  18. I figured Popelka was hanging them up, not transferring. She got tons of PT this year, but never did much at the plate. Corona going elsewhere makes total sense. She was a great team player. Day is not consistent enough. I'm curious the extent to which this portaling was player-driven or some of it was that they were told about the writing on the wall.
  19. "He didn't eat a car, did he?" "No, A tiger shark's like a garbage can. It'll eat anything." There is a disturbing lack of Jaws quotes on this thread. I'm doing my part.
  20. I've posted this before, but it's a definitely relevant PSA right now. This may save your life.
