  1. He's 95 years old now. Not to many opportunities for even 85 year old's and I'd imagine he got it out of his system by then. I watched the French Connection the other day. He is great.

    Getting old sucks

    I didn't know where to put this. I saw it on FB, but it's not dumbass. The guy raised sheep, so I thought aggy, but he's not screwing them so I didn't put it there. Since he was old and an insomniac and the first thing he did when he finished was go to the bathroom, I decided to put it here. In 1983 a 61 yo Australian sheepherder won a 544 mile ultramarathon. He did it because he accidentally woke up early after the first day and then proceeded to run for 4+ days straight without sleep. He showed up to the race in his overalls and muck boots, but switched to a pair of pants and a loaner pair of shoes. And he shuffled instead of running. https://allthatsinteresting.com/cliff-young
  3. This is one of my favorite FB photos. I wonder if Mahomes does the same thing?
  4. Lol. Savage is putting it mildly. And after one trip to Philly I agree with him.
  5. Appropriate thread for this video.
  6. josiecanseco Where the beer flows like wine. where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of capistrano
  7. I went to HS with a guy who joined the corps turds in '79. He told me about beating cadets with an ax handle. They would take cadets in the woods and either tie them to a tree or a group would hold thm against one, then strip them and beat their ass with it.
  8. This thread is the quintessential aggy-ness. The thread is a lot to process but it's a great laugh. https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3523120/1 "Regarding the football thugs and Sully, that was the straw that broke the camels back for me. I love being an Aggie. I identify as an Aggie, but after that incident it was clear to me that the values I was taught as a cadet in the early 80's are no long taught at TAMU. I will never donate to the university again. That season was the first time I didn't pull for the Aggies. I give to the Rudder Association only. The university is a shell of what it once was. You youngsters don't know what it was like back in the 80's. You bought your date a mum for every home game as every home game is a homecoming. Girls dressed up for games. The band played loud throughout the game. It is different in a very negative way now. TAMU is now the University of Texas in College Station. That makes this old Ag very sad."
  9. Years ago I was a salesman for a large industrial distributor, 100+ year old company, 100+ employees. The owner caught the top salesman playing golf on a Friday afternoon. He had been top salesman for years and had always exceeded his sales goals. This pissed the owner off, so he implemented tracking devices on all our phones. We had to be in a customers parking lot at 8 am and 5 pm. It didn't matter if we hit or exceeded all our numbers (we did), he would financially penalize us for not being in a customers office. It didn't matter if you were working on customer business or not. All it did was make good liars out of us. I'd take my phone to a buddy's business and leave it there and run errands. Within a year, all the top salespeople left and the company went out of business. And he screwed all his debtors on the way out the door too.
  10. It is. But somehow they bastardized it into a sausage in a blanket, which is a klobasnek. I have and make, my grandmothers 3 rise kolache recipe. I take my kolaches seriously. Yeah, I'll stop. No need getting my BP up.
  11. Every damn donut shop in town has a sign that says they sell kolaches. I go in and ask what fruit they have in their kolaches and they always say "we only have sausage". I tell them if I wanted a klobasnek I'd ask for one.
  12. A friend of mine bought one for his wife. She's not a big gun person but I know she likes shooting it.
  13. We call it Santee Annie around these parts!

    Getting old sucks

    I'm a little jealous of y'all. My dad died 43 years ago and I never got to be with him as he aged. (Mom died 50 years ago and it sucks even more). And my batshit crazy stepmother lived to be 94 but luckily in another state. I watched my father in law go through it though. I guess we were fortunate that he lost his ability to drive pretty quickly and knew it, so there wasn't any pushback. However what killed him was the ability to do things. He worked on a/c's all his life and it killed him when he had to pay someone to do it for him. I told him the reason he busted his butt when he was young so that he could pay someone to do the things he could no longer do. He knew it was true but it was still rough. I just hope if/when I get there, I remember to go easy on my kids.
  15. WTF is "angry Ryan Day"? All the tosu boards keep begging he show up.
  16. Texas 35 tosu 27 Texas 401 yards
  17. If you do, you'll have to do it out of your bedroom, like every other Podcaster that's popped up during the playoffs.
  18. I know OSU is favored but according to the faithful at elevenwarriors.com it will be a minimum 2 score OSU victory but most likely will be a 4 score win. Texas has never seen a team as overpowering as tOSU. If they lose, there will be mass seppuku.
  19. My FIL was a cop in FW. The FWPD were terrified that someone would make an attempted on Kennedy there and were relieved when he left the city. He also said they had to put a watch on Oswald's grave after his death and that it was covered by the greenest grass in the cemetery from people pissing on it.
  20. There are a lot of missed blocks by Helms. I don't know if it's designed that way but it appears if he just gets in the way of an unblocked lineman, there are yards to be gained.
