    Basically Nahlin is saying that they are sometimes told stuff that they cannot report because they'd get completely shut out if they spilled. Hence the phrase, "getting the hammer".

    this being Surlyhorns.com, I believe it should be "getting the hammer UP YOUR GAPING ASSHOLE"

    Lots of cool and interesting stuff here and in the share your music thread. I’ve been looking to move beyond the pointless jamming I’ve been doing for so long and finally commit to real composition and recording. Can someone recommend some quality PC daws that allow for both composing with loops & samples and recording external guitars etc? I already have some recommendations for audio interfaces and other basics. Hopefully someday I’ll have a setup to record live drums other than my V-drums, but for now I’m happy to create beats and loops. Any recommendations and feedback is greatly appreciated!

    I use Audacity (free) and a $50 Blue Snowball condenser to record from a close-mic'ed Katana amp isolated in a closet. I don't do anything direct, which is probably dumb but oh well. My setup lets me multitrack by playing back through monitor speakers on my desktop-- the amp is loud enough that I can hear it fine without having to mess with real-time playback/playthrough.

    Same setup for acoustic guitar, but I move the laptop and mic to the master bedroom closet upstairs and just play with the sound hole close to the mic. 

    I have never tried recording vocals. Maybe next year. 

    Audacity has a lot of mixing and mastering stuff built in, but I don't really know how to mix or do any of that producer shit so I just guess. I'm just lucky when I get the levels right and everything sounds relatively equal/appropriate. 

    So my shit is totally bargain basement, but the end result is what I consider decent lo-fi. It may sound like shit to someone with better ears than mine, and/or someone who understands mixing, but to me it's effective enough to produce multi-track song stems I can share.

    WTF, I just heard "Learn to Fly" on a commercial for Dodge Trucks.   

    Did Grohl sell his songs like the others are doing?

    Doubtful. Much more likely they licensed it.

    Spending $40 million on a coach, just 14 weeks after letting 80 people go and instituting pay cuts on 300 others (claiming financial necessity) and declaring "money is no object" to hire someone as controversial as Urban Meyer would be inexplicably bad management.

    then we should cancel all of our capital projects

    You make an NFL roster an an UDFA by being consistent and dependable.  He’s not.  He needs to come back, work on his game, and learn how to consistently produce. 

    that was sort of my point although I see what @Bevo14 was getting at in terms of upside

    Some of our underclassmen have a much higher opinion of themselves than their production. Will more than likely be quite a few UFAs that pop up.

    wouldn't you take a fifth-stringer from a program like Ohio State or Alabama over most of our guys, if you were drafting in the 6th or 7th round? Most of the scrubs at those programs were highly recruited, stuck with their program, and got four or five years of really good coaching at the college level.

  7. I am also interested in what @BearSchlong told his sponsee. I know what I would say, short and simple: "for this program to work, you have to believe that whether you drink or not is life or death. If you do believe that, then you're basically risking death being around a bunch of people who are encouraging you to drink. And your alcoholic brain does not need any additional external stimulus to convince it drinking might be a good idea." 

    I don't mean sever, but I would encourage him to limit in person contact to times and places where booze isn't involved... which may be harder with some families than others.

    Charlie Strong had to jump through hurdles to get ping pong tables for the team a few years back.

    that was just the administration hazing him, they were joking when they said it and no one actually thought he would do it, but he was kind of an idiot

    I think there is enough room for an indoor and outdoor field/facility here just have to move the sid Richardson hall and Strauss center to where current practice field is.  Don’t have to touch lbj library/auditorium 

    Lots 37 and 38 can fuck right off.

    that fountain and green space, too, fuck that shit!
