  1. It's funny, I think about that a lot but...I also enjoy sitting on my ass and not doing anything to fend that off. One day, something's gotta give. You seem to have really enjoyed your dealings with Gen. Powell. He seemed like a genuinely good guy. I'm sorry for your loss, seriously.
  2. Pull your thong out of your ass, I wasn't attacking you. As a tall/big guy (6'6" 275), I think about shit like this and I was curious what you meant and I think I was on the same wavelength.
  3. Curious what you mean by this. His height/weight ratio? I didn't think he was an absurdly big guy, but I honestly don't know.
  4. I'm 48 years old and Texas has one title in my lifetime. So you're right, I won't be expecting it.
  5. Didn't play Texas, didn't play ou, didn't win his division. He got lucky as hell with the schedule that year.
  6. Where I live, your shelter gets recorded at the city so they'll know to come looking for your ass after a tornado wipes out your neighborhood. Maybe that's just an Oklahoma thing but it makes too much sense for it to only happen here. This place ain't exactly on the cutting edge.
  7. I agree and I don't want to come across like I'd just cover up my kids' crimes in the same manner that I'd just take out my own garbage. If this was my son, I'd probably be in the hospital right now. You just never know how much anyone can take when it comes to a crisis. Maybe these parents are raging assholes that should be shunned from society. Maybe they're just so worried about their kid that they have to keep busy and working in the yard helps them stay sane. I don't know.
  8. Not sure if you have grown children but eventually, you have to emotionally disconnect just a tad. At least, I do. If I let myself dwell on some of the stupid decisions my kids make that I cannot control, I'll have an ulcer or heart attack in no time. I had a panic attack once, no desire to go down that road again. And no, that doesn't mean I'm down to cover up murders with my kids but we don't know what kind of an asshole this guy has been to his folks over the years, or what kind of bullshit he's put his parents through. Maybe they've quietly reached their breaking point and gardening is what's keeping them sane.
  9. My twins got a 2001 Honda Accord (wife's old car she bought in 2002) and a 2012 Ford Fusion (uncle died, my dad bought it and gave it to the kid). The Honda died last year, I replaced it with a 2017 Hyundai Elantra, $9500. Fuck buying my kids a new car.
  10. The problem with this is that the average football fan (like myself) doesn't give a flying fuck about that shit. I watch football to relax on the weekends. If I want to worry about shit like this, I can just go to work. I don't care what millionaire dipshits email to each other.
  11. I'm pretty confident that won't happen on saturday.
  12. I switched to the IPS light and the blue color is very off-putting. Plus the forum headers at the top and bottom are gone, I have to go back to the home page to switch forums.
  13. Spencer Sanders just isn't any good. I'd take the under and think UT wins by 7-10. Our defense is really good but I think they'll get worn out because Sanders will turn it over 2-3 times at least. The only way we pull out a win is if the defense gets a score or 2 IMO.
  14. When we did the registry thing, I told my wife it was pointless because nobody would get us anything we actually needed/wanted. We were both adults (her 29, me 35) and we didn't need towels, dishes, etc., as we already had that shit. She disagreed, so I purposely put shit on the list for me that I knew we wouldn't get, just to prove a point. I put a big TV, a playstation 3, any big electronic item. We got...towels, dishes, etc. I'd say 90% got returned for store credit. Just give cash, people.
  15. I haven't had a passport in 30 years, have an appointment on thursday to get a new one. They said it'll be done in 16 weeks.
  16. Not as bad as winning 103 and not even making the playoffs. Hope you lose to STL, no offense.
  17. I found out yesterday that a childhood friend died from cancer, she had just turned 51. I hadn't seen her in over 30 years, she was my older sister's friend when we were in grade school. We've been facebook friends for years and I knew she had been diagnosed but she was updating everything that she'd been doing and seemed upbeat about it. 2 months after the diagnosis, she's gone. Her poor parents, she was an only child and had no spouse or kids. They're in their 70s and all alone now.
  18. America eats true crime for breakfast, lunch and dinner. If CNN or MSNBC made a weekly missing persons show, it would get great ratings, regardless of the race of those missing people. So why don't they???
  19. Speaking of drawers, what's with this new trend of putting a 4 inch wide waistband on underwear? I don't need an extra belt, fuckers.
  20. I've never had to deal with bike riders, so I don't really have a dog in the fight. That being said, this sounds like the most boring shit to listen to.
