  1. I love watching the Cowboy’s endlessly entertaining clown show. And I also feel sorry for Cowboy’s fans. Both things can be true.
  2. Hi there! I really enjoy your content and I'm looking for someone trustworthy to assist with receiving a payment into their bank account. For appreciation, I will give you a good rate. if you're able to assist, send me a DM.
  3. Aggy throws shade by pointing out that our last National Championship was 20 years ago. Should anyone tell him? AggieArchitect04 In reply to Aggie Therapist • 2:24a, 1/11/25 AG 2005 was 20 years ago. I don't understand all the white knighting for the sips. They lost.
  4. 50% is on the players. 50% is on the coaches. And 50% is on the QB.
  5. Well, we've reached a milestone of sorts. The posters on TexAgs are more sensible than many posters on Surly: sixfoot 8:24a, 1/11/25 AG Funny to see the sips going after Sark and Ewers. Sark has put them on the map again in such a short time. Ags would kill for his success over the last two years.
  6. I confess that I have developed an unhealthy addiction to TexAgs. In my mind it is easily the most entertaining site on the internet. It must be comforting to be so delusional, because you don't have to concern yourself with all at thinking stuff. Aggie D did almost as good as tOSU's 1,493 Views | 9 Replies | Last: 43 min ago by FJB Smeghead4761 1:15a, 1/11/25 And that with an offense that put up zilch. And our D did better than UGA's (19 pts allowed), Clemson's (38 pts) and ASU's (24 pts in regulation.)
  7. What If Adolf Hitler Was Accepted to Art School? Had Adolf Hitler been accepted to art school, the cascading effects on the United States' rise as a global power would likely have been profound. Without Hitler’s leadership, Nazi Germany may never have emerged, and the course of World War II would have been entirely altered—or avoided altogether. Without the massive mobilization effort required for World War II, the United States might not have experienced the same rapid economic and industrial growth that propelled it to global dominance. The Marshall Plan, which cemented America’s influence by rebuilding Europe, would never have existed, nor would the Bretton Woods Conference, which established the dollar as the world’s reserve currency. The Cold War, too, might have taken a different shape—or not existed at all. Without the division of Germany and the spread of communism spurred by the war’s outcome, the geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and the Soviet Union might have been less acute. Instead, the U.S. could have focused inward, delaying its global interventionism. The "American Century" might never have dawned in the same way.

  9. More NYC Mayhem: An older man suffered a heart attack and died in our pickup basketball game in Riverside Park. I got to massage his "mid-section area" on instruction from a doctor (who was playing in the game) to get blood flowing. Not fun. Poor man. I witnessed a man get run over by a truck at the Flatiron Building and called emergency services. He was white as a ghost and pinned underneath the truck, and dead when they got there. It was frightening. Our ad agency lawyer jumped from the top floor of our office building into the middle area of the building. His body lay right outside my office window for the day, while the police investigated to make sure it wasn't foul play. His body lay in the rain amongst the HVAC's, all crumpled. Very surreal. Maybe I'm the problem? Stupid celebrity encounter: Split time at the tire swing in Central Park & 72nd Street with my daughter and a man his son. The kids took turns and we made boring conversation for around 20 minutes. His wanted the kids to go together, but my daughter was very shy and didn't want to. Finally, he moved on. My wife walked over and pointed to another part of the playground and said, "Look, there's Robert Dinero!" Yep, that was the man at the tire swing, haha. BONUS SECTION: People at the playground would come up to Dinero and tell him how much he liked his movies. He would warmly shake their hand, and tell them how he appreciated it. I was very impressed with him.
  10. I hear you. Breaks my heart that we sold our big NYC apt when we moved to Texas, but the co-op required the owner to live in it for a year every two years. South of France sounds amazing, and I've seen two super-cheap homes in small Italian towns, but they do require work and potential unknown issues.
  11. Brilliant and understood. Love your location - right next to amazing Brooklyn Pizza Masters. Plus, Trader Joe's below the bridge doesn't suck. I am having some serious life-envy. And as a tribute to anyone who prefers wretched NY stories, we were shopping in the East Village during during daughter's engagement weekend, and there was a man walking right in front of us who had been stabbed in the back! His shirt was covered in blood and he was crying and calling emergency services. He wouldn't let anyone help him. Honestly, it looked like this was a fairly regular occurrence for him.
  12. From TexAgs: 8:59p “Why didn't Leonard consider following Elko here? Should we have seen that as a negative reflection on Elko's offensive philosophies?” No, you should see it as Leonard is a normal human being who doesn’t like to spend his time with a bunch of freak-show nut jobs.
  13. Aggy is the big winner tonight. This makes their glorious BEST LOSS to Notre Dame even more wondrous. And to think that their second best loss against Texas will make this season even sweeter for them. Plus, if Texas wins, SEC SEC SEC! Congrats to them!!!
  14. Well, congrats on your success in a very competitive field. That's tough work! Yeah, she works really hard, so she will have long hours, for sure. Still, I don't see how it can compare to the absolute insanity of investment banking, but we shall see! What about going uptown? There are still some good deals on the Upper West and East Side. What about Brooklyn?
  15. I'm sure you're right. But to blame the lack of success on Sam is just wrong. Tom Herman sucked, which is why he no longer coaches here or anywhere. Triggered.
  16. Tom Herman had a player named Kai Money catching passes. Triggered.
  17. Excuse me? Don't you know that Notre Dame overcame AGGY speed in the game ESPN voted BEST LOSS?
  18. You do know that was done a long time ago and he has nothing whatsoever to do with the execution or media placement. Yes, I know you did. I was just checking.
  19. Tremendous. So impressed. Congrats. My NYC daughter just resigned her investment banking job at Morgan Stanley, which she has had since she graduated in '22, and started at a private equity firm this week. She is hoping to have a more sane lifestyle. We owned a big, two-bedroom apt on 65th and York and sold it when we moved to Austin in 2002. Now it's been converted into a three bedroom. We bought it for...$277K in 1996, lol. Just kill me.
  20. I'm jealous that you live in the city. What do you do for work?
  21. Thanks. I will try it next time.
  22. I am sure I'm senile at this point, but I could have sworn I took a train from the airport directly to downtown in Paris, London, Stockholm, Amsterdam and Barcelona. We lived in Manhattan for 20 years, and now my younger daughter is there, so I get back every chance I can. Older daughter got engaged there last November and 40 people flew in for the surprise party on the top of PUBLIC Hotel. That was probably the most fun day of my life. Tom and Jerry's in the East Village is our official family bar. I would love to move back. Not sure that is feasible. Anyway, sorry for the ramblings.
  23. Thnx. Both options sound somewhat flawed. Take a train to the LIRR station, then take a separate train to Penn Station. Take the train to local subway lines through sketchy Queens subway stops. Every other major city in the world has a train direct from the airport to the center of town. It's insane that NYC doesn't offer that.
  24. Translation: those players may have been highly recruited, but there was little to no development under Tom Herman.
