  1. Just when I start to get my groove on and am enjoying the US Women's World Cup team, (++Hope Solo, Alex Morgan), the cameras have to kill it and pan over to the coach who I swear is Temple Grandin.
  2. :sick: I feel bad for young people that are always used to being in a relationship. You start to undervalue yourself.
  3. I may not come across as the hopeless romantic, but if you got the goods....go for it. If your gut tells you bingo, and your head is only slowing you down because of the past....I trust the gut. You must have been on guard early on, and if she got that far through your trust meter.....you are just getting regular nerves. Don't pull a Darcy and let Briere walk for 500K. Besides, I think we are due for a Sabrespace bachelor party.
  4. It's a battle, but if he's tough enough to get to the point where he could withstand what was happening to him before they caught it, he can withstand the cavalry coming in to chase out the bad guy. That's great you thought ahead to bank. I am in a similar situation as far as that goes. Technology has come a long way and I'm sure he will be thankfull someday.
  5. Very good. Good luck. Hopefully it's just something goofy.
  6. Prayers to you as well. Things ain't like they used to be, and it hurts more and more to see links to the past drift on.
  7. Keep strong. It is a helpless feeling to be at the total mercy of others, but I'm glad you are happy with the support system. Your son is an absolute saint. I know you have a good head on your shoulders and it sucks to be stuck in this chaos, but try and educate yourself as much as possible and find other caregivers with similar experience. The situation seems as far from normal as possible, but slowly you tame everything to a new normal and feel more in control. Doctors are human too and only have so many hours in the day, so any rational involvement on your part can only help. You guys are in my prayers.
  8. If the leadership of the past 40 years actually had the interests of Americans in mind, we would have done so by now. Too bad the past 2 treasury secretaries have had the sole job of keeping China happy until they have accumulated enough hard assets to pull the plug on the US. If the US wanted to keep their position, we would have been at war by now. Instead it's in the bag to slip softly into the global night as just another number. As long as the power structure can loot the treasury and secure themselves....who cares about the other 300 million schleps? We had a good run. Think of the US as the NY Islanders. Gone are the days of Bossy, Potvin, Trotier, Gillies, Smith, etc. Now we just have a whole lotta Wang.
  9. I disagree with this one in full. I always get milk in a bag. The gallon will tend to sweat, and if you put it in your trunk without a bag, it can roll around and pick up every little piece of grime and grit in there. Plus, if the seal is broken at all, it will leak all over the place. At least the bag gives you a shot at preventing a mess.

  11. If you stay out of the infield for the Preakness, it is under control for the most part. Seats are a lot cheaper than the Derby as well. I will have fun...thanks.
  12. I was all psyched to have one the first time in Kentucky and I just couldn't handle it. I've tried a couple "good ones" since and it just is not good for me. Like the Lewis Black bit on candy corn...."Every year at Halloween there is a bowl of candy corn sitting on the table....and me, like a fool....as if I have never seen such a delight before in my life....reach for the bowl, and put some in my mouth." I'm in Kentucky this year for the big show with all the perks, but need to represent well. I'm a well mannered drunkie, but don't want to call Bruce Budreau an oompah loompa on NBC.
  13. You guys are killing me.....I am about to have 72 hours of open bar with all the Makers and Woodford I want, but I need to be a semi-good boy. Word of advice....don't start with a mint julep. You might as well pour some Robutussin over some ice and suck on a mint sprig. I love manhattans but I won't even touch a julep anymore. MAYBE just one this year for luck, but I can see being turned off quick by it. Drunkies I tell ya.....
  14. I went to a wedding just outside of Nashville and I have never looked at JD the same way. Drink whatever makes you happy. I find gin relaxing but most people think it's jet fuel.
  15. I just wanted to make sure he is ok....or to know what could he have possibly done to get booted after everything that has been said here over the years. If he's in Tailand getting a rubdown from Koi Koi...then good for him.
  16. :thumbsup: I was just sittin here all alone.....eating my half gallon of rocky road....... :cry:
  17. Did PA take a voluntary break, or did someone ban him?

  19. I'm not a doctor, but I would think that would elevate your cholesterol.
  20. Lindy actually sounded happy as well. Maybe it's all going to hell in a handbasket. I wouldn't be shocked to learn that Lindy signed his extension this week.
  21. I don't have any complaints. In fact, this week has been so sweet that I am happy. Who coulda thunk?
