  1. Yeah,depends on situation. I'll have a Bohemia, chips & salsa, a nacho platter for the table, and the lady will have a large reposado margarita, salt. Make that two Bohemias.
  2. I bet you can spell Monthan, too.
  3. Had an older guy - 30ish - in a EE lab at Texas, had a wide gold wedding ring about that tight. He couldn't get it off, so he was just really careful, until he wasn't. Big-ass capacitor got him when he reached into an oscilloscope we were working with. Pretty much melted that ring, although I think it just fell off when they cut off the ruined finger. It was a weekly lab, and he only missed one session. We called him "Claw" after that.
  4. Wrong. Even sooner need more than a single finger for horns down.
  5. I've never seen this Marty guy before. I was wondering who gave him the list of softballs, and why his boss saw fit to use a guy who sounds like his other job might be voice-stuntman for Billy Bob. On the other hand, I did like the responses from Arch - bothi his content and his delivery were extremely well done.
  6. Ryan Day stocking up on excuses, kinda Meatchicken-ish. Damn, we need to hammer the shit outta these fuckers.
  7. I think this is pretty much spot-on.

    Well, it's still Winter, so it's dark already...

    Occasionally, both. Usually alternating, monthly. Just the right one for several years until the left went into wet AMD.
  10. I roll with the notepad with a magnet taped to it, stuck on the ice box door. Thanks to Miz Long, I've got probably three or four hundred pens and pencils available.
  11. Now you're just encouraging them...
  12. Be patient. We're in the last coupla days for Spring semester enrollment. Once that's finito, it's probably gonna be quiet until well into spring practice and guys finding out they aren't going to be starting anytime soon and looking for a better situation. Most of those aren't going to be targets for us. A few players are going to be unhappy with coaches, and at least some of those may be of interest.
  13. Prolly want to make that spa first, then cleaners.
  14. I do more than embrace it, I find it glorious to have a rent-free dwelling place in the heads of so many americans. On the other hand, the greater world has very little hate for us... although they have a tendency to identify John Wayne as a Texan. Overall, you're right, though. It's beyond glorious, it's embraceable.
