  1. Wish I could find one in a .40. I've got a 9mm but always wanted a .40 too
  2. I went to a Clemson message board to see how the fans were reacting. From kickoff to this morning there were 2000+ new threads on the board. They can't even commiserate together
  3. Thanks! Misunderstood. Normal screen on ESPN and split screen ACC network.
  4. I guess I don't remember it from last year. Or even yesterday.
  5. WTH is the deal with the split screens on the ACC network?
  6. Random sex during the day? How do you sneak the girlfriend in without your wife finding out?
  7. LOL. I know people who get paid to stand in front of guys to teach them this stuff.
  8. I don't have a skillet big enough for a pound but 5 or 6 slices at a time, yes. As it gets hot you can stir it around and it will separate. On my Blackstone grill I'll throw a 1 pound package on and separate it as it gets warm. It doesn't brown as even as they do when you lay them out but that doesn't bother me.
  9. It gets really complicated but if you notice he (illegally in the US) has two lanyards connected together (making a loop) at his feet. If he falls, he's going to fall at least 6' (lanyard length) plus the distance from where his back d-ring is before the fall to where it rest after the fall (probably at least a foot over his head. When he hits the end of his fall, he's generating something around 380-400 lbs of force or more assuming he weighs 180 lbs. Think what would happen if you had a harness on where you only fell 1 foot but you had and extra 200+ pounds tied to your feet. And all that force was concentrated in 10 or so square inches of your crotch. Then the harness is going to squeeze around your rib cage from the force of the fall, breaking your ribs (and possibly snapping your spine) and shoving them like shrapnel into your intestines.
  10. I sell this stuff for a living. The only thing those lanyards will stop is him hitting the ground. If he fell connected like that, he would die from a broken back or massive internal organ damage.
  11. Where's the second part of the video? It looks like they were getting ready for round 2.

    My daughters work for BCBS. There are ways to get things done but I think you need to find out why it was denied. Somewhere up the line somebody decided it doesn't check all the boxes. It could be a mistake, incorrect request, misunderstanding of what's covered in the contract or simply the wrong boxes checked in filing. Call until you get someone sympathetic to your cause. They have doctors review the request and maybe one of them can override their decision. All contracts are different but If they give you a reason, I can ask them if they have any ideas on how to appeal.
  13. After the Rice thread devolved into intro music discussion, I realized this song would be perfect for A&M. It's got agriculture, trailer park, death, gays and Coors light. It covers a lot of their bases.
  14. Someone on this board convinced me to just throw it all in a skillet and let fate sort the frying out. Works great and I've been doing it for years.
  15. They left off getting on a message board to talk about it a week in advance, posting on said board 100 times during the game and then arguing with people the day after a game on what went right/wrong.
  16. Emphasis on dumbass. He had a million $$$ contract from a boot company. All he had to do was wear them while he played. For a while he would wear them then take them off to play barefooted. Eventually he just quit wearing them and they cancelled his endorsement contract.
  17. I never was a fan but a friend had extra tickets for one of his shows at Billy Bob's. It was a train wreck. He was wasted the entire show and blathered on about how screwed up his life was and how much he did his wife wrong. I guess it's admirable to admit it but it took up the whole show and done in a black out drunk, "I said what?" kind of way. All the PG fans ate it up, I thought it was a waste of 2 hours of my life I'd never get back. I'm pretty sure after that show, he "took some time off from touring" (rehab hopefully) to get his priorities straight.
  18. Then how about some duck food?
  19. Repeat the same process I've done for 40 years and get up and go to work?

    The problem is that he is a great surgeon. I know people who know him and say he's a good person too. But either he's extremely unorganized or he promises more than he can deliver. I've already told his nurse I want prescriptions written before the surgery. The surgical center is under new ownership. The old owner, Abilene Regional, was a for profit hospital that I later found out was in financial trouble and a horrible place to work. I'm going to let the new people know what happened and what I expect. The good thing about getting old is you don't put up with shit anymore.

    Man, I'm sorry you had to go through that. The quickest I could schedule surgery was Oct 12. I'm not doing anything that requires lifting with my left arm anymore because I don't want to take any chances. My problems last time were with the surgery center and doctor. He's a good man and surgeon but he is ALWAYS late for appointments. Last time I was the only one scheduled at the center that day for 11 AM surgery, so the crew got there at 9. Doc showed up at 3 hours late and the surgery was more complicated than he thought so I didn't get out until 4:30 or so. The nerve block did not work so they had to use a deeper anesthesia and I couldn't wake up. By 6 they wanted to go home so they sent me home without me regaining consciousness. I woke up in the recliner about 9 pm. And the icing on the cake was the doctor forgot to order pain meds for me. They had to call him at home and have him call them in. When I went in the other day I told them it's not happening that way again and I want shit handled before I ever set foot in the place.

    Left the sports medicine clinic earlier today. I went because I was having constant shoulder pain. At first he kept saying probably a bone spur. Wrong. Torn rotator cuff and he said if I wait more than a couple of months it will be irreparable. I ask him how it happened because I take a ton of precautions to protect it after surgery on my other shoulder. He said arthritis and bone spurs just shredded it over the years. Last time it was hell. Someone please tell me they had rotator cuff surgery and it was easy.

    I had a cousin whose youngest graduated HS when he was 38. He had a vasectomy the year she was born. They were going to be home/kid free by 42. Then his dumbass wife wanted another, so he paid to have his vasectomy reversed and she had a kid at 40.
