  1. I appreciate the info, but after a couple of times through the linked document I haven't been able to decipher what the indexed score scale is. Can you break it down for me?
  2. Just got my test back. 2nd Pfizer shot 3/5. >2500 COVID 19 spike antibodies 51.4 SARS Covid 19 total antibodies. ( I had very mild case of Covid in early October 2020) I don't understand the meaning of the 51.4 result. Seems low but I don't see a range of expected options anywhere. Is it relative to the >2500 result or is there some different scale for the prior infection antibodies?

    Ask them if they are ever going to re-open the Addison location? For real...
  4. I order mine with extra pickles so I get a fresh one also and don't have to suffer through the sandwich with no pickles. Their fries are complete TRASH. Can't believe the love those get. I think people must just dip them in sauce or something. TRASH!!
  5. I've had horse multiple times. Horse soup, sausage and ribeye. Ribeye is by far the best. Worst horse product I have had is room temperature fermented horse milk. Tasted like drinking smoked cheese. VOMIT!!
  6. In ... until the Maryland game
  7. I'd say responsible citizen answer is keep the 5th grader and 7th grader apart, keep them both home, test the 7th grader and yourselves every other day for a week and if all have continued to test negative send them back to school. No idea what the school required answer is.
  8. Compliment indeed. Good job on 70 lb loss for real.
  9. Will make the SEC SEC SEC road games more of a TV event for me. ha ha
  10. sorry to hear about both your mom and your family.
  11. I was having lunch with a co-worker I didn't know very well one day and in the process of getting to know him I asked about where he likes to travel, etc. and he leads with "well I inherited 8 timeshares from my mom when she died..." I think I kind of blacked out after that.
  12. The "pretty nice cabin" part will be the rub in most places. There are some great lake houses for rent around Possum Kingdom and Cedar Creek probably also Texoma. The nice ones on the water are probably $600-$1,000 per night. Turner Falls is probably worth checking out but I don't know much about rentals around there. Despite everything I said, renting one of those houses in Broken Bow for a long weekend will probably be exactly what you are looking for if the goal is just kicking around in the woods and letting the kids throw rocks at each other while having the possibility of getting poison ivy. 😳 The first time went our kids were younger and that's about all we did (mess around in the woods, find poison ivy and have smores, etc.) and it was OK. We did do a canoe float trip that seems like it was alright now that I think about it. Our more recent trip was the one that was kind of a dud as the now older kids wanted to "do something" and there really wasn't much to offer.
  13. I've been a couple of times and the whole thing seems like a huge Ponzi scheme to me. If all you are looking for is a place in the woods to hang out and do nothing but "get away" then by all means you have your pick of hundreds (if not thousands) of houses (actually pretty nice ones) that are grouped (defeating the purpose of "getting away") in the middle of nowhere. The water is generally a bit of a distance away (car ride, not hike), very few restaurants worth eating at and little else to do. I'm stunned at how many $250k-500k cabins/houses there are up there and how many more are being built. It's been going on for at least a decade and it doesn't show signs of slowing down. I'm curious what the resale market for those places is like.
  14. Always a fan of Bowden and those early to mid 90's teams. RIP Coach. Man was also a great story teller... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUEx1CHZktA
  15. I think that dude is a Youtuber (not the actual flight attendant). Either way, I agree with you both though.
  16. I was going to say almost exactly this. I will add that in March of 2020 we spent a couple of days at a house in the mountains close to Gatlinburg/PF and a few days later the entire world shut down. YMMV.
  17. I've always been an Olympic junkie. I remain one and have raised my kids in the same fashion. My current 8 year old wakes each morning between 4 and 6, opens his door each morning at precisely 6:30 (because that is the earliest he is allowed to) and turns the TV on to check the results overnight and determine his viewing schedule for the day. In between watching sessions he is operating three separate one-man tournaments (baseball, softball & 3on3 basketball) in which he plays the role of all teams. It is priceless and I can't think of a more fun way for him to spend what would otherwise be the blah days of 100 degree miserable summer. This morning at breakfast he was commenting that he is going to be bored when the Olympics stop and all he has to follow is mid-season baseball. ha ha Having said all that... the time difference is a beating this go around. Anticlimactic knowing most results in advance. I would also be in favor of either sticking the summer games permanently in Athens and the winter somewhere in the Alps or having a set rotation of (Athens / Tokyo / Rio / LA & Sydney) for the Summer and something similar but cold for the winter so the venues can be built once and then reused. Plus every now and then someone pops up that is pretty easy on the eyes and for @Thujone...
  18. Honestly, I think the biggest movement will probably be some schools like SMU (rich alum base and fond memories of bygone success) who are able to move their recruiting a few steps up the ladder. Maybe even somebody like Nebraska (doubt it) or Pitt I could see Vandy maybe stepping up with whatever moral objection that 'might' have existed removed. Second type of candidate I can see making a move using NIL is the G5 team in a populated area with some wide fan support or little brother type schools. Central Florida / Louisville types and then Mich State, OK State, Wash State as little bro examples. To me, the existing blue bloods will do it and do it successfully but they were already the Joneses so I don't necessarily see keeping your spot as a big "benefit". Admittedly, we and USC have not done as much with our Joneses status as the others on this list.
  19. Talked to a co-worker yesterday who tested positive (along with his wife and teenage son) for the Delta variant over the weekend. He, his wife and his teenage son have all been fully vaccinated with Moderna (April / May timeframe) . Son apparently picked it up at a camp somewhere in west Texas a week or so ago. Came home after camp with a dry cough and generally worn out. They assumed he was just tired from camp and had some allergies, etc. Cough and fatigue persisted and his ears had fluid so they went to the doctor to check on a possible ear infection. Doc said they needed to covid test even though they had been vaccinated. Son was positive. Parents were tested and were positive also. The mom and dad both developed a cough and the dad even ended up with a 104 fever. County health tested them all again to confirm it was the Delta variant and it was. They're in Kerr county.
  20. Guided trip or just giving your own master class on how to have a badass day fishing?
  21. are you new here? ha ha I've always thought Mark Richt seemed like good people. Hope he's able to stave off the worst of it for as long as possible.
