  1. I won't lie, I thought the same thing. They should have gotten Pino Palladino (technically Welsh, but of Italian descent).
  2. Ah, that's right. Jimmy Vivino. He was instrumental (heh) in helping my friend's business (Durham Electronics) get off the ground. Alan had built an overdrive pedal for Charlie Sexton (the "Sex Drive") and Charlie was in NYC producing an Edie Brickell record. He loaned his original Sex Drive to Jimmy who loved it so much he took it to Manny's Music to show them, and then they were off.
  3. Man, that was clearly Will Lee from the jump. I think at least one other of those guys is from Letterman's band.
  4. The irony is that the market drop was minor. We've seen WAY bigger drops, even during the Trump administration.
  5. Nah, he has the intellectual capacity of my aging chihuahua. He'll institute new tariffs sooner than later.
  6. I'm thinking about starting a lawn crew. I'm half serious.
  7. Well sure, but these were IPAs. I usually just drink Shiner Bock. I was extra lubricated (so to speak).
  8. Journalism is dead.
  9. Tim Campbell, Brad Shearer, and Steve McMichael on the same defensive line. Damn.
  10. I think they'd make a cute couple.
  11. You do realize that if you engage in a criminal action that ultimately fails, you still committed a crime, right?
  12. UGA is getting clobbered by the draft and the portal. I'm not saying they might not be the favorite, but this is a weird world we live in.
  13. They're just asking NOW?
  14. OK, let's put this to bed. Mea culpa. It was an inference to the RELATIVE difference between the first half and second half of our conference schedule. I will do better next time I post at 10:30 PM on a Sunday night, after consuming multiple beers at a family get-together. Please don't ban me.
  15. I'm stealing that.
  16. This is the first I've heard of USAID's history in helping black South Africans rebound after the "end" (nudge nudge wink wink) of apartheid. That adds some flavor for sure.
  17. Hey, rayon isn't petro-based, it's closer to wood pulp.
  18. Blow me you short-circuited twat. See Js1's post for color.
  19. I'll admit, I'm no fashion maven, but I wear a shit ton of cheap cotton, and if I had to guess most of it came on a boat from somewhere in Asia. Good point, Greg.
  20. It's not even that. It's the angle that a terribly stupid idea is somehow justified because the government may engage in other terribly stupid ideas.
  21. What should we do with clowns who have (oh I don't know) 1,231 neg reps and who stifle discussion by virtue of the fact that they can't string two coherent thoughts together because they're half in the bag yet they think they're clever? Hypothetically speaking, of course.
  22. Oh, I understand. I'm just going on the eye test as someone who has paid close attention to this program for 40 years. I'm no expert, though, but man we look rough at times.
  23. Oh come on, you know what I meant. Our remaining conference schedule is (conference standings): #14, #8, #2, #9, #16, #14, #13, #10, #12 (God forbid I got one of those wrong.)

    Grammys

    He did OK. I've never heard him do anything but live vocals. I'm hardly a Coldplay fan, but the guy has more than a modicum of talent.
