  1. go on... ( as in, continue with the tale)
  2. Gameday is a little chaotic, as the campus damned sure isn't designed for that. Get there early or if it is a noon game, plan on staying afterwords. The campus is beautiful, but the content of the history on virtually every corner is pretty overwhelming, IMHO. You will not regret the trip. There are hidden treasures all over the damned place, beyond the obvious statues, Trophy Point, the cathedral, Beat navy Tunnel, etc. At the entrances to the barracks, there are arched walkways with keystones commemorating different battles and such. My favorite is a lightning bolt destroying a swastika. I could( and did) walk around looking at that shit all day.
  3. 3 per game... QB's arm is cold every time they throw.
  4. And he was the casualty of another aggy swinging binoculars like a bolo...
  5. On July 1, 1830, Edgar Allan Poe entered West Point as a new cadet with the Class of 1834, after having served in the Army for two years. But he was dismissed from the Academy less than a year later in February of 1831 for "neglecting his duties." Legend has it that Poe was dismissed from West Point after he appeared at a parade drill on the Plain out of uniform--in fact without any clothing at all! He was reportedly only wearing white ammunition belts across his chest and a hat. But the more likely truth may be that he just stopped attending classes and training. Poe published his third book of verse, "Poems," in 1831, dedicated to his fellow West Point cadets & funded by their subscription. After Poe left West Point, he continued to write, becoming known for his poems and short stories such as “The Cask of Amontillado,” and “The Tell-Tale Heart," now considered classics of American literature. I got to meet Poe's great nephew who also attended West Point and graduated in 2017. He was a WR for Black Knight football team, which if you know the offense is akin to being that extra card you get in a new deck of cards. He did have 6 TDs in the 2015 season. Life's twists and turns with whom you meet and how paths are interwoven are so amazing, and IMHO, interesting.
  6. No murder. and I only wait for the autistic kids. They're worth more points. (intentional absurdity to address your idiotic scenario)
  7. no am not. I'm just saying don't fuck with people and don't get shot. That's what my post says, but keep on ignoring it.
  8. run, baby, run...roll with your narrative. LMAO. As far as murder, welp, she'd have to die for that to apply, but you're rolling... Now group me in with the Nazi and there you go...LOlz.
  9. race doesn't matter. Y'all runnin down rabbit holes. LOlz. If you think I lean a certain way because of the politics of the people involved, you're making up your own script.
  10. So you favor Minority Report type actions against citizens who display the wrong banners? Liberty is scary as fuck, ain't it?
  11. Where did I champion him? Not once. Just discussing the situation.
  12. Maybe I just lived where people weren't good shots...
  13. Life's full of choices, my friend. Consider the consequences.
  14. On his property? Who fucking cares? I said the same in the Confederate flag discussion. It's not illegal. It just tells where the idiots live.
  15. respecting others is so wrong. and I know the bleedin hearts are going to say respect the trespasser. Nope that ain't how it works. Not in the real world. Leave people the fuck alone.
  16. You're right. It's public access. Just do what the fuck you will.
  17. "Texags Brand Community." now there's a club I'd never want to be a part of.
  18. Meh. Don't trespass and fuck with people...don't get shot. Another thread, for sure...
  19. For having a nazi flag or protecting his property?
  20. One of those ain't the same...like, waaaaaaay different. Your point still stands, but those communities are not similar.
  21. y'all have more unwritten rules than baseball. Good grief.
  22. WTF is up with an individual fucking with property of another individual with their mental imbalance already on full display?
