  1. If Dylan's dad is tragically injured by falling off a horse or getting shot by a cattle rustler, I'll be there for the mom. Because I'm nice like that.
  2. Did I write FAU? I meant FDU of course. Damn autocorrect. On a serious note, my son is considering Purdue for next year and just announced he couldn't attend there after that showing.
  3. I thought the aggy band stuff was pathetic, but realize now it's just a group of kids just cheering on their counselor.
  4. Medallion is not just notary on steroids, it means the owner of the stamp (i.e. first republic) is guaranteeing that the transaction is legit and authorized and the counterparty can seek damages against them if it's not. So if first republic was using that for you in minutes without a little background check, then their risk controls are a little lax.
  5. As always, thanks for doing this- Not a kitten (my son)- VCU, drake, Boise st, Utah st, USC, tenn, Creighton, Pitt. Not a cat (me) Oral Roberts, Charleston, Miami, Utah st, USC, mich st, Conn, FAU. Not trying to game the system, so if it's one entry per user name, go with my son's picks that are listed first.
  6. I'll get my picks in but I'm still trying to figure out do I take USC (10) or mich st (7) since the winner gets Marquette or a 15 seed in round 2. Or take both, thinking it's a guaranteed 21 or 30 points, depending on who wins the first game. Gonna have to go John Nash on this and run some numbers.
  7. Watched Outlast which is a team based survivor show set in Alaska. Last team standing wins a million, but you have to be on a team. You can switch teams but cannot go it alone. Nice concept but ...
  8. I'm thinking of driving down to Des Moines from Minneapolis. For those that have been to the first weekend, is it easy to get single game tickets from scalpers or would you recommend buying the entire ticket package online?
  9. I didn't say getting a mega backdoor, which just proves I'm not a Nowthis sock.
  10. Been doing mega backdoor for a few years. If you have it set so it immediately converts from after tax to Roth there will be no taxable gains and therefore nothing to report (fidelity does this automatically so if your 401k is with them call and set it up). If there's a lag in the conversion process you'll inevitably have some income to report on gains, but your 401k custodian will send you a form if that's the case.
  11. Dammit, you're right. My mistake. The hotel was El Pollo del Mar, not the restaurant.
  12. Steve Martin loves doing that- the name of the fancy restaurant in LA story was El Pollo del Mar.

    Spencer with the Bill Bradley to aggy after the coinflip- it don't make a shit. Interesting game theory about the rules of a duel. Since the one challenged gets to pick weapons, I'd get really really good at one thing nobody else practices. Then when someone challenges me I'd calmly say nunchucks or axe throwing. People would learn you just let slide the insults from the obnoxious drunk guy with nunchucks hanging on his belt.
  14. I typically only neg blatant trolls but damn if you're not tempting me with your warm weather bragging...
  15. Just finished digging out in the Twin Cities. For you sane folks that don't live above the Mason-Dixon, that's a mailbox- you need to dig it out so the mailman can get to it. They're making sure my last winter here is a memorable one.
  16. At the same time? I'm impressed.
  17. Does it annoy the fuck out of me when someone asks themselves questions and answers them? Yes. Does it make me think they're a little bitchass that can't just write their thoughts or position without being overly dramatic? Also, yes

    "you gave me too much money", said no prostitute ever. Allegedly.
  19. A lot of people forget that Marino was the holder for field goals too. That's something you just don't see many modern QBs willing to do.
  20. Just weeks ago we were worried uncle boobs had died of throat cancer and now he's popping up at the Super Bowl. That glorious bastard.
  21. Well, there you go, I don't know shit about other big 12 schools apparently. Damn, the big 12 is kind of a joke academically now that I really think about it. Especially compared to big 10 or the current members of the PAC.
  22. My son applied to ISU and was accepted literally in seconds. Of the schools he applied to that's the only one that did that, so I didn't get a sense they had rigorous entrance standards. I've always thought of KU as the distant second best school in the big 12, but I honestly have no hard data to back that up.
  23. Some of the subtle narrator jokes were my favorites - Jessie the publicist to George Michael- Daddy lost his shot at happy, and it's all your fault, Opie. Narrator- Jessie had gone too far and she had best watch her mouth... There was also the time they kept getting Anson Williams and Donny Most mixed up and the narrator kept correcting them.
  24. This Franklin scene had me literally crying. So brilliant.
