  1. Surgeon, who probably has an IQ of 180, but is socially aloof, plus a group functional regards. Interesting dynamics.
  2. Lol. Reading Texags. The loss was due to bad calls and the north wind. Apparently, the wind blew from the south when NMSU was at bat.
  3. Almost every night since we were married in 2002. I have insomnia, restless legs, and have to be cold to sleep. I sleep with my window wide open regardless of how cold it is. I just don't want to keep her up all night.
  4. You should have seen the looks given by Vol fans when aggy played their first football game at Neyland. I was there. They were all, "Who the f are these yokels?". Yes, too backwoods for the Vols. To clarify, I'm speaking of the dorks in painted overalls.
  5. Just caught up. Had to split the show because my wife lost it during the autism scene. Youngest has it. Very likeable cast. I'm more of a fan of this than drama and "villains".
  6. Hit by pitch. Who was on the mound, Mitch Williams? /Old school Rangers reference
  7. Didn't watch a second of this game but, after reading this thread, I'm watching as soon as I get home. Thx for all the laughs.

    The daughter from Landman attracts animals. Cool scenes with The Galvez. Family and I stayed there when I was 7. We were broke AF, so I'm not sure how we pulled that one off.
  9. Texags. In response to, "Has a #1 team ever lost 4 games in a row?"

    She has this odd ability to look really pretty at times, then not so much. Could've done without the ass rape scene. Enough with the travel. Get Spencer to Montana so I can see him wreck shop.
  11. Yeah. You're going to want to watch in order as some later episodes reference the earlier ones. Apologies if you've already figured that out.
  12. I could probably fill this thread up with my own stories. Here's another one. After my wife finished her undergrad, then Masters, I decided to go back to school and get a teaching degree. I did it via a satellite program where I took classes in Knoxville for a degree from Tennessee Tech - the Texas Tech of Tennessee. Anyway, final month at school and we're required to meet on TN Tech's campus in Cookeville. There's 1,000+ in this huge conference room. Guy with the mike is blabbing about something. I'm, as usual, playing around and talking with my friends. Suddenly, a ball comes flying through the air. I catch it, extremely proud of myself for the quick reaction. I then hear, "Whoever caught that ball, please come to the stage". Oh shit. What have I gotten myself into? Conversation goes something like this... Moderator: I'm going to pretend like I'm a principal and I'm interviewing you for your first teaching job. Me: Uh, ok. Moderator: Tell me why you wanted to be a teacher. Me w/ my brain completely frozen: Uh... I uh. Well, once my wife finished school and began teaching, she told me I needed a career, so I thought, well, hell, I may as well teach. It doesn't look too hard. The entire room went absolutely silent - except for my small group of friends in the back who were absolutely losing it. Moderator was all, "Uh, ok. Who wants to go next?"
  13. OTOS, there was a thread dedicated to your most embarrassing sex stories. I'm pretty sure one guy told his story via Photoshop, and it was one of the funniest things I've ever read. Since I put my foot in my mouth at least once a week, I'd love to hear stories from others. That being said, I'll start. When I first moved to Tennessee, I got a second job at a Mexican restaurant. One day, we hired this absolutely gorgeous "Mexican" girl. While she was filling out paperwork in the break room, several of the guys were peeking through the curtains to get a view of the new hottie. I walked up and told them, "I got dis". I walked up to her and said, "Hola Senorita. Como esta." She replied, "I'm from India you idiot." Took me awhile to live that one down. I did, but that's a story for another board. Anyone else like to contribute?
  14. What the hell ever happened to Black Mirror? Show was really good. Even the episodes I didn't care for that much were pretty good. Seems like it'd be a money maker as production couldn't have been that high. I know they started to bring in some higher end actors during the last season, but it seems like they could pump out a handful of episodes every year or so. Edit: Looks like a new season is coming out this year.
  15. Lol. Beat me to it. And...
  16. Yeah. The family and I had kind of marked this wknd every year to get out of town. Hope there's something in it's place.
  17. Ahhh. West Campus. Jack in the Box Pronto Magic Wok Commons House Hippies
  18. Weird. Eric Hall (NW HS in Clarksville, TN) my wife's high school. Malcolm Williams (Garland) my high school. I met Malcolm's mom a couple of years ago. She was a janitorial sub at my school. She saw my Texas hat and asked if I had heard of her son. She was extremely nice and still very proud of her son.
  19. Oh damn. I loved that Double Dave's. I was flat broke in college, but had a friend that was an asst mgr. there. Monday Night Football and pepperoni rolls.
  20. I went 20 years ('96 to 2015) between Austin visits. I got really claustrophobic in and around campus. It seemed so much more open when I was there - especially West Campus. Yep. I'm not so sure my stellar 3.1 high school GPA would get me into McCombs these days. I'm not entirely sure how I got in the first time. Congrats to both of y'all!
  21. He's taken film all four years in high school. He's definitely doing something behind the camera. He loves the writing and directing aspect of film. His best friend's mom, also a Texas alum, has made a pretty good career in creating content - editing, ads - for various businesses. So, prob something along those lines.
  22. Eat shit Canada.
