  1. She's a sweet girl and a good player. But I think she only played in three matches last year (so not sure if she is a scholarship player). She used to hit with my younger son when she was in high school and he was getting ready for freshman tryouts. Also, you have a near 8 UTR? That's pretty good for a Surly poster.
  2. It also might be that BCBSTX for State employees is not at this time.
  3. I got mine at Walgreens yesterday. They pharmacy tech said they'd been turning people away and I told him my BMI qualified me as obese and that should be enough. This guy was well beyond three bills. So I guess it's all relative, and he continued to work his way down the list of comorbidities. But in the end, he got me COVID and Flu shots lined up and into my arm. A friend went to CVS and got his no appointment and no questions asked. I was there earlier picking up a script for my kid (already had the Walgreens appt) and the tech was encouraging COVID and flu vaccines. So in this part of Texas, at least, CVS seems to be the way to go.
  4. It's a good strategy. Back when I was a much younger lawyer, I had some franchised auto mechanic charge me for a bunch of stuff that wasn't actually fixed. I sent a demand letter and was delighted to get a response from a large, expensive firm in Houston telling me to piss off. So I sent a settlement offer, knowing that this would at least require the big firm to consult with the client and respond (and bill them too much for the service). My goal was to keep engaging the big, expensive law firm until I was satisfied that they had billed the mechanic at least twice what his shop screwed me out of. In my mind, one way or another, that auto mechanic franchise was going to hand some lawyer its money. It only took one more settlement offer for me to get what I was owed plus a little more for my trouble.
  5. You're just lucky I opted not to use the gif with his giant ass gyrating.
  6. What do you mean? I was made to understand he's a huuuuge tennis guy.
  7. I think they're from Missouri. She's jailed in Kentucky. But we still can hope.
  8. I got mine today. But the Walgreens tech was dubious about my chances, saying he had to turn a lot of people away the day before. But the ERS version of BCBS apparently isn't trying too hard to keep people from getting the COVID vaccine. I looked at the tech, who was at least tree-fiddy and said, "Hey man, according to my BMI, I'm obese. That should get me there."
  9. She's not that kind of a girl, Booger. Now ask, "Why?"
  10. . . . to become the new Attorney General. /because animal abuse is a qualification
  11. Oh, a volcano man, I see.
  12. LOL. Homer reaction. And username checks out. This was just the perfect post. Thank you.
  13. Somewhat. Yes. But mostly I just hate catfish.
  14. Looked more like mopery to me.
  15. F/K/A Shopping aggy
  16. Sorry CJ, only Livingstone can haz TDs!
  17. FIFY edit. Dammit edit 2: Woohoo!
  18. Last year, if you got LHF in addition to the Big Ticket, you could draw early and were pretty much guaranteed a ticket. This year, LHF sold out in 15 minutes. The number of student tickets is pretty small as w I basically paid $200 for nothing this year. My kid couldn't even get a ticket drawn for SJSU.
  19. I blame the fact that it's almost impossible for most students to get tickets.
  20. I was not planning on drinking this early in the day.
  21. Looks like they still have an outpost in Monroe, which is where DCBC Jr. will have a water ski tournament in a few weeks. Unfortunately/fortunately, I will not be making the trek this year since I'm slated to cook BBQ for the ski team to eat on their way back to Austin. But now I'm thinking Gumbo and Salisbury steak. /one of my flaws as an east Texas transplant (from Houston) is that if I say I want to eat catfish, somebody better take my car keys away from me because I'm too drunk to make reasonable decisions.
