  1. Impressive that Knowles confused immamac. That dude is pretty smart.
  2. It makes me feel old that there are posters who weren’t alive when Colt McCoy played for the Longhorns.
  3. Of course we all fudge the alcohol consumption question. It's like going to confession back in my Catholic youth days. "Forgive me Father, for it's been six months since my last confession. Um . . . I cheated on a test . . . I, um . . . I used the Lord's name in vain . . . I was disrespectful to my parents. . . . That's about it, Father. [Leaves out copious amounts of sinful masturbation.]"
  4. Really love the compare/contrast with these two photos:
  5. I think Charles Barkley would have something to say about going to a strip club in San Antonio.
  6. I actually shouted during the play something like, "Aw not that shit again . . . Yeah, nice gain!!!"
  7. We have a semifinal playoff game to lose. That's something to lose. Something pretty significant. And yes, I understand the meaning of the meaning of the phrase "nothing to lose." But it still seems like an odd comment.
  8. You should be damn proud. Congratulations on your sobriety. I haven't quit drinking. But about 10-12 years ago I started drinking too much on the weeknights. A glass of wine here or there would turn into a whole bottle, and I just didn't like the way it was heading, especially since alcohol and other substance abuse does a number on my profession (lawyer). And as I was approaching 40, I noticed that alcohol started significantly affecting my sleep quality. So I stopped drinking on the weeknights altogether, with an exception here or there. And at that time, I also got back into the gym, so my sleep improved, I tightened up a midsection that had gotten soft and put on some lean muscle, and I felt better than I had been in a very long time. I've managed to keep it up as I hit 50 last month. Even if someone doesn't have a significant alcohol dependency, I tell them that drinking really fucks with you as you get older. The empty calories and the slowing of the body metabolism adds pounds like it didn't when we were in our 20s and 30s, and it decreases your sleep quality, which is tied to so many other aging issues.
  9. aggy would kill themselves to have the organizational effectiveness of a Popeye's.
