  1. I wasn't paying complete attention to the story -- did I hear that it's a no-tuition school or did I dream that? If that's actually true, the Pell grants would seem to be a non-issue. I wouldn't begin to know how they'd make that work, though.
  2. Any tips on how to assess when "it's time"? My catahoula mix Gumbo is almost 13, and she basically sleeps all day. She is damn near blind, although she still hears OK. She's becoming incontinent, and has a persistent yeast infection in various spots on her body that we are really struggling to keep up with. I can't tell if she's suffering or just mostly old and tired. I love her and I can't see a clear indication that she's in pain or miserable but she has definitely lost most of her spark. (Well, except for when I make her twice-daily chicken/rice/peas/carrots/blueberry gruel, then she really perks up.) Every dog I've owned has died of natural causes before I realized they had serious problems. This is a new one for me.
  3. I dunno, if his dad owed him $12M and didn't pay up, I'm not so sure Baker is the biggest POS in the story.
  4. I assume the school isn't accredited?
  5. Yeah, it was bad. The school is not what it represents itself as being. 60 Minutes couldn't be bothered.
  6. @HenryJames do you know what this reference is about? I can't find it. I played in a few bands with Ken, he's an interesting dude. Very, very smart and very much encamped in left field.
  7. Since so many of you miscreants have raved about the horseradish sauce I ripped off and tweaked, here you go:
  8. Yeah, that's why I said "or wouldn't" transfer. I don't think Havoc is only suited for underdog programs. Beard showed it's possible to take high level recruits and fit them into a system that demands a certain amount of selflessness and then succeed.
  9. Shaka is a puzzler for sure. Far more success at VCU and Marquette than at UT. The B12 is a partial explanation, but in the end that David (v Goliath) underdog ball just couldn't transfer (or wouldn't transfer).
  10. Let's see. Capacity at Kyle Field is 102,733. Will they oversell? Sure. Will there be zero Texas fans there? Not even close. Aggies just can't help but inflate their narrative. It is by far the most self-congratulatory, myopic fanbase in college football.
  11. Those prices are very . . . specific. Honestly, the chicken (or whatever that is) looks as good as any of it.
  12. In my undergrad days I tried for many core week sleepovers. My hit rate wasn't great, but it was good enough I suppose.
  13. Maybe it's because you're the biggest pussy on this website. Fuck off, I've been giving you rope for months and you can't see it.
  14. Yup, that's the guitar I first saw him play, in The Troll Dolls.
  15. Well, scroll back. It's 323 pages. Maybe 8-10 per day, depending. I have specifically been involved in several Archie/Peyton/Eli/Cooper discussions. Fuck it, I don't want to argue with you.
  16. Holy shit dude, this thread is full of people talking about the collective manning family from Papa down through the uncles to Dad.
  17. OK, these are my last notes. I remember liking this one quite a bit. Nothing on the actual cook, just the ingredients. I get lazy. I remember I diced the chuck roast into ~ 3/4" cubes and that was a nice contrast to the ground chuck "gravy". Apologies for using frozen onions.
  18. Hmmm. It kinda varies. Let me see what the last I notated was. Please be aware I don't know shit about shit. Never done a competition, strictly home cooking.
  19. I lament the slow slide of Smitty's. That was always my favorite Lockhart joint.
  20. When I float fresh chiles I squish them with tongs before removing. It gets most of the heat and flavor into the pot without changing the texture.
