  1. We are hitting our 40th anniversary next month. I learned a valuable lesson from her dad after their 65 years of marriage. Quit listening. His wife always accused him of needing hearing aids but the reality was he was ignoring her criticizing and harping. I do it now. My wife is not sure whether I am ignoring her or really can't hear her but it's a win for me. I call it male pattern deafness.
  2. A lot of districts have designated people to break up fights. It is ingrained in the teachers to not get involved and allow the designated individuals do their job. Years ago a teacher in one of the local high schools tried to break up a fight between two girls. He was knocked down and hurt his back, requiring surgery. The administration challenged (and defeated) his workman's comp claim because he wasn't the teacher in charge of breaking up fights.
  3. I'm really more intrigued by the jet powered locomotive.
  4. It's time to fire up the great aggy network!
  5. She ain't got nothing on little league baseball moms or girls softball dads.
  6. The committee intentionally seeded them lower so they would have to face a team that was more likely to beat them. It's all part of the international plot to keep them from showing the world their athletic dominance. JDay In reply to AggieRob93 • 10:05p, 3/16/23 They knew to match the Aggies with the worst possible matchup. That was the big F-you the committee sent the Aggies. Bjork needs to punch Byrne in the mouth next time he sees him for being a part of this ****ing.
  7. Am I the only one getting 20 calls a day that say " I'm with senior aid helper, regarding a financial matter...."? It's a robocall so I can't even jack with them like I do other telemarketers. I never answer them but it always leaves a message. Pisses me off.
  8. I know a guy that worked maintenance for Schlitterbahn years ago. He's a HSE now. He was not impressed by the guys who owned/ designed Schlitterbahn and rumored that there were a lot of injuries that were covered up and buried. He refused to get on any of their rides.
  9. Yeah, I thought the same thing. You can never tell how hard someone is punching but the kicks to the head looked pretty vicious. He's either really tough, drugged up or has a really thick skull.
  10. Old Army Supply Co for all your old army, bonfire, t-shirt needs. Well only 2 and one of them doesn't make any sense. I'm not sure how you get FTU out of EIIGV POLR Must be hidden code in the burnt orange stripe https://www.oldarmysupplyco.com

    ^^^This^^^ I've lifted weights at some level since 1976. Sometimes heavy, sometimes light. But I've always had some kind of muscle mass. When I passed 60 it all started going away. No matter how much I lift. And now the days after lifting weights hurts like hell.
  12. Cookbooks. No popups or mindless drivel banter. Though the might have my mothers hand written notes. I've got at least 40 of them going back to the 40's. Need a recipe to cook pigeon & squirrel? Want war time necessary rationing substations? Got it covered.
  13. Or at least keep doing it through the offseason to keep things lively! My SIL was talking to my wife one night after taking Ambien. She trailed off in the middle of a sentence and my wife could hear her snoring. She woke up the next day with the phone under the bed and no recollection of calling my wife. It can hit some people pretty hard.
  14. Hearing her scream Ayayayayay really sets the mood of the video
  15. I met Fritz Von Eric once. And waved at Nixon when his motorcade drove down the street in Fort Worth. That's all I got

    Hang tough. It will get better in a few days. Wear your sling. You will feel like you don't need it but it will keep your arm from extending if you slip. The LAST thing you want to do is catch yourself with your arm if you go down.
  17. About 10 years ago the superintendent of Abilene ISD told all the teachers this. Of course later he got in a pissing contest with the chief of police and was busted for pill shopping vicodin and possibly covering up a teacher/student relationship to cover his ass. Shout out to Supernintendo Heath Burns, first class prick.

    Yeah, I deal a lot with the renewables industry and 80% of the guys are young. I'll start talking about something from the 80's or early 90's and they say " That was 10 years before I was born". It really hits home when I remember I've been full time, real job, employed for 40 years.

    Yeah, I don't know what it is about them. It's totally irrational. I tried to prepare myself for one once by crawling under my jeep (to simulate close quarters) while I listened to MRI noises. I made it about 2 minutes. Closing my eyes doesn't help, but lots of valium does.
  20. I try to stay off Texags but sometimes it's a good source of lunacy and humor. A writer at the Battalion suggest they quit worrying about the University of Texas (she get s called out for this naming heresy) and that they do act like the crazy ex-girlfriend. So 1/2 of Texags go crazy ex-girlfriend to say how she's wrong. https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3361655/1
  21. Not a childhood car but this was the biggest pile of crap I ever owned. 85 Chrysler LaBaron 2.2 turbo , 5 speed. The front seat frame broke at least 5 times. The automatic window drive belts 4 times, timing belt once and the steering wheel actually came loose from the firewall.

    The first time I had an mri, I heard the doctor ask the technician “is he going to make it or do you think he’s going to pull himself out of the machine?” I made it through my shoulder mri in an open machine only because the tech came out and held my hand to make sure I didn’t come out of it. I finally found a doctor that would prescribe me Valium. One the night before, one the morning of and one an hour before the mri. Next time tell your doctor you need something to make it through. It’s the only way I can make it through one.

    On the repaired rotator cuff. I tore it doing weighted dips. I don't know the mechanics of it all but he said I would eventually tear the left one and possibly re-injure the right one if I continue to do anything that went past 90 degrees on my elbows.
