  1. Just celebrated the 30 year anniversary of this one.
  2. Don’t they know all that singing will just rile the zombies?
  3. This sentiment often portends very bad outcomes
  4. Withholding judgement for now. This may just turn out to be another aggressive Wells Fargo strategy that incentivizes employees to open new customer accounts by any means necessary.
  5. All the women in Chuck’s life hope that it doesn’t lead to beer googles.
  6. That’s a big ask. It’s a somewhat Aggy attribute of our fan base’s ingrained mindset. A narrative for as long as I have memories has explained away successes of Bama football, Baylor basketball or OU football as fruits of a poisonous cheating tree, whereas we wear white hats while riding white horses and do it the right way, thus having a built-in excuse for anything other than 1st place. It will be fascinating to watch the Horn fan moral universe evolve. If cheating is now ok, are there types of cheating that aren’t? As long as the alma mater wins and steers clear of legal liability and embarrassment, who cares which rules are broken? JAQ etc
  7. Rural PNW does have its own brand of crazy, united with disparate reaches of the country only by open borders and a cultivated, shared resentment. Dig the flag tho.
  8. You’d think the last thing that guy would want to see in his free time is more kids.
  9. Sorry if this has already been discussed somewhere in the preceding BWG word salad, but when does Sims decide?
  10. You’ve had lots of solid suggestions already. I’d add that you’re relatively close to Yosemite in Sacramento. If you or your bride haven’t seen Yosemite, it could be worth the slight detour. Tourists will be lighter that time of the year and the Ahwahnee Hotel is a magical place. Crater Lake is a worthwhile detour as stated though at that elevation you could see October snow. I don’t know what might be open for you in terms of lodging.The 33 mile rim drive circling the crater has lots of spots to get out and look, and if you want to stretch your legs, it’s a short jaunt down a trail to the shore. MOPOP museum in Seattle is cool too. Another option would be to end in Vancouver/Victoria. It’s like a whole ‘nuther country up there!
  11. Are there no tapes of him against varsity opponents? I keed. Hook'em
  12. Not even Hempstead is safe on 420. What a world.
  13. This has been one hell of a week. The portal = chaos but it sure does make college basketball more exciting in April.
  14. Mass shootings are a plague of the mind. The seed was planted a while back largely thanks to our Tower shooter and it lays dormant until the conditions are right in a wrong mind. It doesn't help that we keep sewing and reaping either. I think we need to collectively treat mass shootings like suicides that similarly spread through a culture: as lurid as they are, manage reporting so that shooters aren't rewarded with infamy. Not easy but clearly many changes are needed to our status quo.
