  1. You've spelt "constipated" incorrectly. For non-medicated types, "full of shit" is the preferred nomenclature.
  2. After watching the complete meltdown against Stanford, I have a hard time seeing any game as a probable win. Seems like the Under is the right bet.
  3. Okay, apparently I'm having a Bad Day. I should have specified that I would like to see Mitchell struggling to run on or off at any time previous to Fall Camp. I was thinking maybe the spring game or any of last season's fourteen games - assuming he played at all.
  4. Does it count of you have multiple wall calendars from years past... although not on the wall any longer? And how about recordings on wax, vinyl, tape reel, 8-track tape, cassette tape...? Sorry, no cylinders.
  5. Is your name Claude? We had a guy named Claude in the Instructors' office back in grad school. Claude was a Domer, and he only knew two things about football: 1. Notre Dame had the bestest football team evar evar, always. 2. Notre Dame football players were the only college football players who had to take a pay cut when they went to the Pros.
  6. Dunno. Maybe Kurt? He still reads Surly, right? I don't care if it's a reporter or not. I wouldn't expect a reporter to do so, good or bad. There are plenty of folks here who post clips all the time, so maybe one of them?
  7. I'm sure I'm not alone, and we all love you, too.
  8. AP poll over that way --> Meanwhile - I didn't really notice Mitchell not being able to run on or off. I know this is Surly, but I assume anyway that the problem is at least slightly real. Somebody plese post a clip of him struggling to run on or off?
  9. Apparently power tools are like media productions. There are only five or six companies that make all fifteen different major brands, and for most of them the only functional difference is color and/or sexual orientation. Your preference will lead you to choose, and whether chosen well or poorly for you is perfectly acceptable to the manufacturers.
  10. I apologize for confusing you, but saying you're not going to compare, after comparing and followed by continuing to compare doesn't improve whatever your argument is. The actual point I was trying to make was not about petulant assiness, it was "Fuck You, Pay Me" conflation. I thought it was clear by using the term FUPM, but I was wrong. At least, in your case. Clearly, I have failed you, and probably others. I accept that and will trouble the thread no more... at least, not on that point.
  11. To be completely fair, Insight Panic is a decent name for a band... although Vague Post is not far behind.
  12. In a way, he is very much like Coach FUPM, but with a different demeanor and considerably less on-the-field coaching success. And... the Name of the Game is Entertainment. Are-you-not-entertained.gif
  13. "Coach, is there any truth to the rumor you're planning a new Prime Academy, here in Colorado?"
  14. Ah, yes: Eva Gabor - one of the highest attainments of the arts of Makeup and Cosmetic Surgery.
  15. Chauffeur comes to mind. Having one, not being one. 60 years after JFK's death it is more and more apparent that Kennedy was a victim of a palace coup - spearheaded by Vice-President Johnson -- Secret History -- Sott.net.mhtml
  16. I'll take strabismic alcoholics for $800, Alex.
  17. Unnecessary. Appreciate thoroughness and plainspeak.
  18. Binary scale. One is Five. No math, just symbology.
  19. Have had a bad achilles tendon in my right leg for a few years, apparently brought on by a -floxacin scrip. Swollen up just above the heel. Not horribly bothersome, but sometimes sore enough to cause limping. Hasn't gotten worse, and was helped quite a bit by massaging "the sore place" on the calf. A few weeks ago, I suddenly developed "drop foot", which has dramatically altered my stride. I have to pick up the foot with a knee bend. The foot doesn't flop all the way down, but it also doesn't lift. Sitting flat-footed, and trying to flex upward, the big toe has almost no movement, although the other toes have about the same motion as the other foot. There is also a lot of numbness on the top of the foot. Now I'm seeing obvious swelling, mostly in the foot but a little up the ankle, too. At 81, I'm not sure whether to chalk it up as just regular "falling apart" or what. I reckon I ought to let a specialist go over this. GP doesn't seem concerned by it, but I'm pissed off about not being able to walk more than a few dozen strides at a time, and pretty damned slowly, at that. What kind of Doc should I see?
  20. Not to get too high or too low, these guys aren't in the book until December, right? As far as I know, there aren't any enforceable contracts being signed, are there? We find the right RBs and take care of bidness, I'm guessing recruiting will work out just fine.
