  1. Six years at 7.5 (thereabouts) makes 45 to "coach", then fired for 78, that's $123,000,000 and I count 9 figures. Sorry for the maths. Izzat how it worked out?
  2. Lily. But fuck that, you need to embrace the new Surly Motto: Guilding the Lilly Since Before Sark
  3. Literally, and not unintentional.
  4. ... and if PK had held UGa to 13, we'da won both games.
  5. Top-Shelf Pussy is a damned fine band name, particularly if there are some Hoffs and Peterson sisters in there.
  6. The first rule of Fight Club... She reminds me of the plastic bags of fat from the liposuction clinic. It hit me instantly upon seeing "harpoon" that the result would be similar to Dr Pimple Popper poking a hole in a giant boil and having gallons of bloody pus spurting all over the walls, floor, and ceiling. Would not subscribe.
  7. It's almost like Sark pays attention to every phase of the program and has a good idea of what coaches at other schools of all sizes are doing.
  8. Quinn has always looked good against air. Duh. That makes it pretty simple - you need a really good line, keep the pocket clean, and he'll carve up the defense. Let him get beat up, and you're fucked. You want or need a mobile QB, he ain't it. What NFL teams fit the bill?
  9. Perineal All-pro prolly worthless as a band name, but would be excellent as a thread title.
  10. Read that as fingering - figgered a guy that could fling the ball blindly around like that prolly got big hands... Not seeing pics - are they in "Hot or Not"? I see what you did there.

    Well, shit... what a sensitive asshole I am. (No Johnny foosball Mom reference) Never really paid attention to removals - do they leave a trace? There's always a few edited blank except with a ne'er mind here and there. Had a few, myself, then was too late to edit.

    Tell me about this porn board. I'm still curious about the post in the wrong thread, though.

    I got hauled off to the hospital for a heart attack (1999, I think), which turned out to be gall stones. Went in for that three- or four-hole laparoscopy surgery, which was a pretty new deal then. The top hole wound up being much larger, because of what the surgeon ssaid was the biggest gall stone he ever saw... bigger than a chicken egg, close to duck egg size. Fuck, oh dear... no wonder it hurt so badly. But it really healed up pretty quickly, and no real pain. I was 56 at the time, so reckon it ain't just youth to account for it. But I still ain't wearing a bikini...
  14. I know, but my old ass prolly isn't ready for her strapon.

    If I'm taking that wrongly, I apologize, but I assume that was meant for my post. I'm not sure why you feel the need to play thread police, and particularly so when you fail to offer an alternate thread. It should come as no surprise to see you were currently hanging out in CR when I looked. Again, if "wrong thread" was about some other post, I apologize.
  16. Wrong part of Hot/Crazy Matrix. Would, but not at my place, not at hers. Prolly hotel but room in her name. Would want buddy wating for OK phone call. Be a good idea to pre-load a course of 'cillin. On second third thought...
  17. I believe the fuzz was thinking from around $25K to 50K a month for a couple of years, so hourly rate was pretty good.
  18. Somewhere between half and four-fifths?

    I haven't thought about this for quite a while, but your observation brought it back to mind. My step-dad visited me the night he died. He was completely gold, didn't look like clothed, but he wan't naked either. He said everything was fine, and the lives we lead make perfect sense viewed from there. He said that the pain we survivors felt, that pain is not for him, but for ourselves, and that once we realize that, we can let go of it. He told me there was so much he had to do and learn, and that reincarnation is a choice, not a certainty. Everything, even things we are horrified by, are inconsequential when viewed from there. Said he wouldn't be coming back to us again. and he turned and walked away, disappearing over the horizon. One other thing he told me was that we should understand that Worry and Prayer are exactly the same Thing. People who want to pray but can't, aren't doing it right. Worry is just imagining that Bad Things are going to happen. Prayer is just imagining that Good Things are going to happen. Now you know. Whenever you realize you're imagining Bad Things, just flip that mental switch from Bad to Good.
  20. My take has always been that almost all of the folks we call "actors" would be better called "pretenders". They happen to be photogenic, and they never do anything except dressing up, making up, and pretending to be someone else.
  21. Classic "computer crime" from the Olden Daze... Guy used his Apple II to print invoices, which he sent to pretty much every big oil company, engineering, and construction company in the south. He read all the business news and journals, found big multi-million dollar projects and sent invoices for random amounts between $500 and $1,000 with that project and a senior VPs name as the reference. He figured Accounts Payable wouldn't fuck with a VP Project leader of a $75,000,000 project over a few hundred bucks. He was right. It worked for a couple of years, until he got lazy (or too busy laundering krugerrands) and sent the same amount invoices a few months in a row; the AP people at Conoco thought $683.19 had already been paid twice, tried to contact him and discovered the invoice's main office street address was an empty lot in Houston, and ... busted. Apparently he paid back some of the money, but nowhere close to all, did a couple in the slammer, got out and disappeared. Most of the victims were pretty embarrassed and wouldn't work with IRS, and the bank accounts that the money went through were regularly emptied by cashier's checks, payable to jewelers and coin dealers.
  22. Watson Brown is Mack's big brother. Mom and Dad always loved him best.
