  1. Uhhhhh......
  2. classmates with @THUJONE's offspring, I presume?
  3. Sadly.
  4. This thread is the perfect embodiment to the countdown to the end of the offseason.
  5. Tennessee resident, so I can speak to this. Around here, UT almost always refers to the university, athletic teams are referred to as the Vols. No need for quotation marks or apostrophe's. But the pronunciation is closer to "Vawls," and is almost two syllables.
  6. Who around here isn't a sadist?
  7. A truck stop logo in traffic cone orange and white seems like a match made in heaven.
  8. Dot, in our Costco (Franklin TN).
  9. You'll see. This thread delivers in a curiously satisfying way.
  10. Welcome. You will never want to leave.

    Getting old sucks

    This is very sound advice. Don't ignore any worsening symptoms (headache, ringing in the ears, etc). Had a physician I work with fall on some ice last winter and hit his head. Symptoms nagged him for a few days, eventually started to get some numbness in some fingers. Ended up having emergency brain surgery. Ignoring show brain bleed symptoms is just as deadly as ignoring heart attack symptoms. Just not worth taking the risk.
  12. Every rule has its exceptions.
  13. So, everybody gets a medal? Not sure that's how the olympics work. Also, user name fits...
  14. I would have assumed that would leave lighter markings. Perhaps a urology consult is in order.
  15. My daughter (no pics) was in the office of one of her school counselors yesterday when the gold medal match was on. The counselor commented on the age of one of the US players (37, I think). My daughter responded with "Wow, that's great!" The counselor snapped back with "No it's not, she needs to retire!" That counselor happens to be the mother of a certain former Longhorn player mentioned in the previous post. Maaayyyybe not the most objective, but as a parent, I get it!
  16. I've never seen the US send prlims relay participants to the medal stand in any sport. He will get his medal.
  17. All the Brazilian girls look more pissed than sad. Suck it!!
  18. she hip checked her before she got ball.
  19. HoustonHorn is @Armybrat?
  20. I'd eat that. Donde? Looks Waffle House-y.
  21. Not the best humble brag I've ever seen, but...
  22. Didn't bother to watch at first, because artistic gymnastics. But, after so many comments, I watched. Glad I did, that was very impressive, and the fact that she represents Ukraine makes it that much more rewarding!
  23. Yep, Russian dude. Dead before he hit the water. Hit your head on the springboard a la Greg Louganis and get stitches. Hit it on the platform and get a body bag. I remember watching a female diver go off the platform and slap her hair on the concrete. She had SHORT hair. I about lost my lunch.
  24. Just looking at that seat restraint hurts my scrotum.
  25. Este.
