  1. Holy crap. Did you notice the url for that tweet contains "chris-del-conte-called-a-booster-last-week-asking-for-money-to-buyout-herman-and-confirmed-he-had-urban-meyers-verbal-commitment"
  2. Don't know anything about skiing, but your basic route is I-40, so meander north and hit Santa Fe, I love me some Santa Fe. They've got skiing there, bu know nothing about it. If you want to go a little further north. ride the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. Never ridden this one, but its well reviewed. We once rode the Durango and Silverton between Christmas and NY, the snow made it one hell of a gorgeous trip.
  3. Probably before most of your times: Tommy Kramer SA Lee; Minn Vikings Richard Osborne SA Lee; Phil Eagles Lawrence Williams WFHS; Kan City Chiefs Joey Aboussie; WFHS; UT - The 1973 game vs Miami (Fla) didn't turn out well for him
  4. My grandmother was born in 1898. About 50 years ago she wrote down stories about growing up in north Texas at the turn of the century. In one story, she, her older sister, and her father were taking the wagon into town for supplies. On the way, they met her cousin, her uncle, and the sheriff on the way to get a local boy for a shotgun wedding. She wrote that her sister explained to her what had happened.
  5. That article is just brutal....brutally honest.
  6. Well, I called the damn number, full expecting a pitch for a donation or something. They want damn near $300 for the damn directory. Told them no about 7 times before they gave up. Then they sent an email with a link to verify online the information I had to call to verify. Fuck them.
  7. Back in the late 90s and early 00s I worked a lot of BBQ based fundraisers for college scholarships, scout troops, etc. Back then, all briskets were 8 lbers. Never saw a 10 lb. Now they are all 12+ lb
  8. Not my father (he was in Germany), but his 1st cousin was in the Lost Battalion and spent years in a Japanese POW camps. He was in one about 100 miles from Nagasaki on August 9th. From that camp he saw the mushroom cloud. Didn't know what it was, but knew it was a good sign. His oral history is in the University of North Texas at the Willis Library. And yeah, what those guys did in the pacific was incredible.
  9. What's stopping you from scheduling 0U every year? Texas played 0U for years as a non-conference game?
  10. Since you are touring coal country, maybe you can take a trip to Centralia. Or maybe not..
  11. In my ignorance, I decided to listen to the song, before I decided. And I'm on board. It's a nice song, uplifting. The version I heard was 4½ minutes, so they may have to cut a verse or two. But I'm OK with this.
  12. It doesn't matter what I think, but those simpletons who started the Chaz thought they would have a city state as long as they possibly could. (all states want to last as long as can) They had their own armed strong men security, etc. But, yeah, from your evil anarchist, revisionist history perspective, they were a utopia. Maybe you should start a go-fund-me to erect some statues for thses failed rebels.
  13. Do what it takes to knock that shit off, then just re-season it. Wire brush, whatever.
  14. This. They are just like aggy and their fucking wooping. They just can't get through their heads that there are places where wooping is not appropriate or welcome.
  15. Problem with this is that in BB, Saul doesn't know Gus. But he "knows a guy, who knows a guy"
