@ Willy - welcome back. Free at last.
@ Blu - that guy in Detriot should have gotten a bicycle.
@ Blue - sounds like a really cool experience to tour all that stuff.
@ Ghost - it's always a trip to see an actual picture of someone that I have never met in person, but sorta know from a message board. Takes me a little time for it to sink in that people will not always look how I'd imagine. I think its the glasses. I don''t think I ever picked up that you wear glasses.
@ LEK - hope your kids get better. RSV can be serious in a little one. It put my daughter in the hospital for a day or 2 when she was little.
@ Everyone - have a great day. Glad to get the win last night. Hope the team gets back to being healthy real soon.

The Thanks A Lot AT&T For Having Crappy Service In-Game Observations, Brought To You The Day After:
1. It's great to see plays develop in person. I tend to watch the ball when watching a game on TV, but it's awesome to see the cuts and motion of this team in person.
2. Actual conversation between the people next to us. "I think that's a George Bush cutout that they're (student section) holding up. Who's the other one?" "Richie Farmer."
3. (It was Borat)
4. It is significantly less loud when you sit under Big Bertha as opposed to being above or eye-level with her.
5. Middle kid enjoyed the game, but went iPod-mode about halfway through the second half.
6. He chose Gelato over the Ice Cream cone. That's a pro move, folks. Proud papa.
7. Good time was had by all.

Welcome home, Willy!
@ 93: I only need glasses when I drive. I take them off indoors. That's why I called that my worst pic ever...I didn't even know I put my glasses on! Of course my co-workers knew that too. Dead giveaway that I had a few too many!
and yes, I did NOT drive afterwards. Our friend Edwin picked us up.

Welcome back Willy. You r free!
Funk/Blue: So glad that you/your family enjoyed the game! It is so different live. Yes?
LEK: hope the kids feel better soon. That sucks.
So....I've seen the McDonalds ad at Superbowl about 200 times now, it keeps popping up and I never EVER clicked on the damn thing. Trying to get rid of the sucker. Puter problems. Ugggg.
Stay warm. Have a good day.

Thanks Ghost. Just because I'm now a lesbian doesn't mean you can smooth me over with Hennessey. hahah
Blu- Thankie thankie!

Philosopher Rene Decartes is one of the most influential thinkers of all time. He was also a bit of a ladies man. Some times when he was pleasuring a woman orally, he would stop and pause. It was there he would conjure up some of the deepest and most insightful thoughts ever. He was, indeed, one of the first recorded humans to Think Outside the Box.
Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Well the names have all changed (and apparently someone's sexual orientation has changed as well) since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Back here where we need ya (Back here where we need ya)
Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've got him on the spot, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

Blu...you're my girl, blu. I have never considered you anything less than a fellow D-Leaguer...which is of course just about the highest compliment one can bestow upon a fellow human being. And you are OD (Original D-League). Which is the absolute highest honor of all. It's all good in this hood.
Patiently awaiting ghost's next drunken adventure when he hooks up with a newly-turned-lesbian named Willamena.
Shine on you crazy diamonds...shine on.

Cool little piece about the man who started Black History Month. Born in Virginia, worked in KY coal mines, and went to Berea College.
*Now excuse me while I quickly vent...
I love this stuff because growing up in the backwards-*** County of Madison you weren't taught local history. Berea and Richmond didn't get along. If you ever heard Berea mentioned it involved the words "weird, hippy, or gay". That was it. We did take field trips to their craft festival so we could buy deer antlers and eat funnel cake. Nobody ever told us Berea - that lil' weirdo town full of hippies - was home to the first non-segregated college in the south. That's a pretty big deal. That's something you can be proud of. That's not some gay hippy ish. That's some real life important ****. Apparently the school system didn't think so, and it makes me angry. I just can't understand the logic behind that. I think it's important for people around here to know that sort of stuff so they won't be so damn ignorant.

True dat, Mash. During our Bicentennial Celebration in my hometown, (Columbia, TN) everything was celebrated and acknowledged EXCEPT for the race riot of 1946 which wasn't mentioned once. Avoided like the plague. No matter that there were decent white folks who helped out black folks. We had a local magistrate (white) who prevented a future Supreme Court Justice (Thurgood Marshall) from being lynched. There's kids who went to school in Maury County, TN who would have never known about the Columbia Race Riot except for Wikipedia and Black History Month. I knew because my elders drilled it into me. Never mentioned at school tho. But the kids knew everything there was to know about fluff like Mule Day.
And I understand only time will heal this sort of stuff, but it still irks me.
I learned about all kinds of segregation stuff that happened in Alabama and Mississippi. I don't care about those places, and I can't relate. But if you taught 10 year old me about Berea and the movement that happened in my own backyard, it would have explained a lot, and I would have been able to relate. Now, I'm just bitter and angry about it because nobody had the balls to discuss it...
...and I guess that's probably a state curriculum issue, but idk. That's a whole 'nother stupid animal.
But, i get it. I get why old people don't want to talk about it. I get why they prefer to ignore it and run away from any sort of conflict. It's just not right. It's not helping the progress of their children, or the children after that. Life is short, but history is looooong and very complicated.

LEK, I've got a computer problem. I notice my surfing is slow and stubborn. Malwarebytes is finding over 800 malicious objects. I quarantine them and immediately run the same scan again and they are still on there. Is there another program that will clean them off? Malwarebytes usually does the trick but this time it's not. Help please sir. FCC.
Mashburn: We both grew up in same county, while I do have similar memories, mine vary a bit. It could be our age difference? ( I have no idea your age I'm 35) I always remember Berea as being "rednecks" and that is so far from the truth. We too went there on field trips, mainly art shows/ college/ Boone Tavern (BTW dleague. the BEST Spoon Bread EVER) It really is a testament to how much history there is in our own backyard....yet is is not taught/acknowledged. I have 4 nephews that are currently in the public school system in Madison Cty 1 goes to Model, and they honestly don't know ANYTHING about our county, It is not that they're stupid ( I hope not anyway) it is frustrating when I ask them about Whitehall? Boonesborough? etc. No Clue.
I'm rambling. All I'm trying to say is your are so right. It really is sad.
Oh 1 more thing about Richmond. It is a shell of what I remember growing up. I loved it. Not as much as when I was younger.
Carry on boys.

Funky: mind u I'm having computer issues, when I clicked link, it was not a good link? Is it me? Or what?
Thx/
Yeah, they took the article down. Maybe it'll be back up again. (Edit: it's up mow( Just a little Twitter deal where they posted one of my Tweets. Are you on the Twittter machine, Blu? Most of the rest of us are (besides, FCC, 55 and KS)

FCC, you need to start computer in safe mode with no networking.
Go to start menu
Search Run
Open it.
Type msconfig
Enter
Should be a screen with 5 tabs
Click the boot tab
Click safe boot. Make sure network isn't clicked.
Restart.
Run ccleaner. Run malwarebytes full scan. Clean your browser history
Run your antivirus software(if your not running normally, gulp)(avast is a great free one)
If doesn't work, tell me.
When done, repeat top instructions for ms config, except uncheck safe boot

Richmond is a weird place. It's getting a little too big for it's britches now. Growing very fast, but still very small and backwards.
Home to the most nerve gas in the USA!! (Now that they're destroying the stuff out in Colorado) Right in the middle of a damn town...Pull that sucker up on a map and you'll see the army depot land (where the gas is) is as large as the city.
Your spirit animals were the best, Funky.
P.S. I would love to know the gritty details about the process of destroying this gas. There are like 30k workers involved with this deal...one reason why richmond has grown so much over the last 10? years. (Idk, this has been going on for a long while). Gotta be a huge waste of money. The original plan was to truck it out. People threw a hissy fit. They said "OK OK we'll destroy it on site" so they spent gazillions building some state of the art facility to kill the stuff....which I guess we'll be torn down when they're done? Or turned into a factory? Idk.

Welcome back Willie.- belated.
• Bruce Jenner should try to become the oldest medal-winning female decathlete.
• Redoing history. Me about 35 years ago entered Boy Scout Pinewood Derby with little help from my dad. I had an unsanded red painted block of wood with wheels that was a complete embarrassment. On Friday, I exact revenge. I am THAT dad that has sculpted, painted and researched the ideal scientific weighting and friction reduction of my son's pinewood derby car. It should smoke all those wussies entries. I painted it much like the delta parade float car from Animal House....but prettier. Bringing 10,000 marbles to the pack meeting.
• Anyone hate their profession like me?
• As I type this I'm entering my second hour of my commute to work.
• Marrow/Stoops better hogtie committments to the CWS goalposts next year. I don't care about the window dressing, this recruiting class was a fart.

Whew! Good thing they caked a 2-1/2" layer of salt on the roads last night! Wouldn't have made it in to Metro this morning otherwise.
- I like my profession. Ive hated a few jobs I have had, but overall, I am happy.
-I always bring this up, but the mods on rafters...unsure why they have such thin skin. I get its hard to appease 1000's of people, especially ones that attack other posters, then when they get the heat back, email mods and complain.
-I would not want to be a mod. Jedwar does a great job.
-Ahh, the safe haven of the D.
-I really want to try Patti's. I am going to start looking for conferences to go to in that neck of the woods.
-Making pot roast for the weekend. First time trying. Nothing special, just a basic recipe.
-Ive been eating kind bars, some low sugar bars for breakfast, very decent, but had the coconut almond. garbage.
-getting bored with comics again. I collected when I was 11-14. Saved all those comics, and now have collected last 3 years.
-We need Lyles back.

I had a spicy chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A. Delicious. The under done waffle fries not so much. Under cooking fries, waffles fries, potatoes oles, hash rounds, etc...should be justification for a firing squad. No judge...no jury...no blindfold. Just straight to the wall.
