  1. For some reason I was thinking you wrote Corby Robertson but he is from Houston and is almost 80. So by comparison, it hasn’t been that long.
  2. Dolphins Injure Mom in Freak Accident after Spring Break Swim Summarize March 25, 2025 by David Jones A Tennessee mother, Cierra Stockard, who suffers from sickle cell anemia, is currently stranded in Jamaica following a bizarre accident during a dolphin encounter. Stockard was vacationing during spring break when a dolphin unexpectedly lifted her into the air, causing her to fall onto its dorsal fin. The incident resulted in severe injuries, which she described as akin to being in a car crash, during a phone interview with Nashville’s WKRN from her hospital bed in Montego Bay. The impact of the fall left Stockard with a significant bruise, described by her sister as being the size of three apples. The injury was severe enough to require emergency surgery and two blood transfusions. Despite these interventions, Stockard remains in Jamaica, uncertain of when she will be able to return home. Stockard’s family has been rallying to raise the necessary funds to bring her back to the United States. They have set up a GoFundMe campaign with a goal of $55,000 to cover the costs of her medical treatment and return journey. In addition to the physical trauma, Stockard’s pre-existing sickle cell anemia condition complicates her situation. She may require a third blood transfusion and is currently managing her condition with medication brought from home. However, her sister, Nevaeh Garton, who set up the online fundraiser, expressed concern that Stockard cannot manage her condition alone. The family has reached out to the U.S. embassy for assistance, but they have largely had to navigate the situation independently. Stockard’s aunt, Kimberley Watkins, expressed the family’s urgency in getting Stockard home, stating that the current circumstances are far from ideal. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential risks associated with interacting with wildlife, even in controlled environments. It also highlights the challenges faced by individuals with pre-existing health conditions when they encounter unexpected health crises while abroad.
  3. Well that and the likely new crack in the windshield.
  4. Ken Lakusta Steven Wright The interesting thing about Ken Lakusta is he is suppose to be 6'1.5" while Foreman is 6'4". Foreman looks so much larger.
  5. You're from Houston?
  6. Have you guys mentioned Grant McCasland?
  7. It has been awhile since I've been to Los Angeles, but is this a fair representation? It is a long way from Beach Blanket Bingo.
  8. Maybe Expedia would do the right thing but there isn't a guarantee these days. I booked an AirBnB for a month and a half in Montana. AirBnB charged me $190 in taxes. Montana doesn't have a sales tax and the hotel tax is for stays less than 30 days. AirBnB charged my card twice - once for the month and once for the half month, but they didn't use that excuse. In fact their excuses made no sense. And if the ticket wasn't resolved same day, you basically had to start over with a new representative because they would close the case. Eventually, I gave up, But, I don't see any way that they were in the right. They just didn't want to do it and I had no way to force them.
  9. The famous slippers, worth over $100,000, were recovered in 2018 after an extensive investigation. The pair was sold for $32 million at auction in December 2024. But, the whole professionally written excerpt was shit.
  10. You don't know how good he was. He had the talent to be the best and made some extremely good offensive linemen like Brian Millard, Doug Dawson, Adam Schrieber, Joe Shearin, Terry Tausch, and Les Studdard look silly in practice.
  11. Except for his cocaine problem which held back his pro career. He would be in the hall of fame if he could have controlled it.
  12. The excerpt below got me - Man Charged in Ruby Slipper Heist Dies National News Federal prosecutors have dropped charges against Jerry Hal Saliterman, one of the men accused of stealing the "Wizard of Oz" ruby slippers in 2005. The motion to dismiss was filed after Saliterman, 77, passed away on Sunday. Saliterman was indicted in March 2024 on charges related to the theft and witness tampering. Saliterman allegedly concealed the slippers for years, even threatening a witness to prevent them from speaking with the FBI. The famous slippers, worth over $100,000, were recovered in 2018 after an extensive investigation. The pair was sold for $32 million at auction in December 2024.
  13. He went to one of my high school games with a mutual friend to watch me play. We had a good time after the game. Condolences.
  14. That's not your dad. At best he is like an eskimo uncle.
  15. What coach can get donors to support basketball NIL and what coach can generate an offense that will excite fans and bring people to games?
  16. Seems like an intelligent conversation goin’ on here
  17. Yeah, but why would anyone get an LLM - It's a downgrade.
  18. Limb-sparing surgery is the preferred approach so hopefully they can remove everything without damaging major arteries or nerves. They will take an MRI to see where everything is. But if you do lose your arm, I know ROFLBOX needs a thumb so he can masturbate properly.
  19. I'm glad that symptoms are localized. That's a good start. The numbness is because the mass puts pressure on the nerve. It is a relatively rare condition that has a genetic component so try to see an oncologist who specializes in it. I think Dejka Araujo is the main one at MDA.
  20. What symptoms are you having?
  21. Why is UC Santa Barbara in Goleta?
