Done it several times, but the past 3 years or so, we just haven't ventured far enough south. Wynn/Encore has such great breakfast/brunch places that makes it hard to make the trip. Sitting on the patio overlooking the strip is a nice place to have a (fairly) early meal, however.
We have to continue to use faxes here, so years ago we migrated to a fax server. The amount of scams that come through are staggering. All of them are tossed by the ladies that receive the faxes, but this one slipped through and was sent to the business office for payment. This one made me chortle loudly:
$149.99/per month, but that includes "backlink pinging"

And the address?
Here's 3403 West TC Jester Blvd Houston:

Wonder if the SEC came out against this in 2023:

Was at a small-town festival day parade this morning. You know the type; local and state candidates for office, a high school band, Shriners doing their thing in little cars.
Some heat and air business had a entry in the parade. As it was passing by, on the back of their trailer, a display. Had absolutely nothing to do with heat and air.
A portrait of Charlie Kirk.
People were cheering. My wife leaned to me and said that was one business we will never use.
TCU had enough petty cash on hand.
OSU owes Gundy $15 million outright if they fire him. The amount doesn't decrease until sometime in 2027.
In other words, they could fire him and pay up. Or, maybe negotiate something lower in exchange for his "retirement" this winter.
I'm not sure exactly what firing Gundy in the coming days would prove at this point. Plus, you have the AD situation in Stillwater that is unsettled. The current AD is working under no contract, so what is the incentive for him to do it now; he's not going to get to choose the successor in the off-season.
At best, an interim might get them 1-2 conference wins.
Bump.
