The cup runneth over

I'm making a new thread here because you know how things get after 200 posts.

Campfire a.k.a. "Ask An Auburn Beat Writer" tentatively scheduled to begin right here at 10 p.m. CDT. Allegedly. I'm still in Montgomery right now.

I understand your dislike for those kinds of posters. Jay do you have to constantly monitor this thing or is there some kind of filter?

you could always do a test post to see if there is a filter, wartiger...

Thanks for clearing up the Finebaum thing. I had a feeling he was just taking the credit.

Don't give him ideas, Michael.

I monitor the blog quite often.

Well, all of you going out have fun and be safe. Wish I was headed to a TR Miller high school game. Greg and I are hunkered down for the evening. Watching some spooky stuff, having some hot beverages and answering Facebook stuff. Things are pretty wild and crazy around here!

What does one answer on facebook?

Blogger wartiger said...

what are ya'll watching monica?

4:32 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

One answers requests to be added, comments made on one's posted photo's. There is a veritable cornucopia of answering to be done.

4:33 PM

"cornucopia of answering " I love it...

4:34 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

Sounds major.

Hence lack of Jay Tate participation on facebook.

4:35 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

wartiger - We're considering The Happening and 88 Minutes. If not that it will be something like Extreme Ghost Stories - the tv ghost/haunted stuff.

4:38 PM  
Blogger wartiger said...

I thought about making your pic my avatar (recently learned internet term) and being Jay G. Tate for halloween but never got around to it...

4:39 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

I like how Jim from The Office went as "Dave" this year.

you spook yourslef with tv scariness..c'mon!! how about some sixth sense or the ring..or weekend at Bernies now that is a horror for ta

4:41 PM  
Blogger wartiger said...

you know I don't think I have ever caught one episode of that show but you reference it quite a bit might be something worth checking out..

4:43 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

It's so not major. I've just not answered any of it for a couple of weeks. It's been lots of fun to reconnect with people from school. It's also been good for networking with with old friends who now live in Birmingham.

4:44 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

lol wartiger I've seen all that stuff! Don't be making fun of my spook material. Speaking of which, my sisters have decided we're going to visit Sloss Furnace next Halloween.

4:46 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

You can waste hours answering stuff on facebook. Kind of like you can waste hours watching Auburn football. I am sooo wasting big chunks of my life right now...

Not sure if I make the campfire or not. I'm going to see HSM3(ergh) and then we have an invite to a party. If I did make it not sure what condition I would be in...

4:46 PM  
Blogger wartiger said...

well leaving work. i have to work tomorrow and got some plans tonight so I'll do my best to catch the fire if not check ya'll tomorrow. Happy Halloween Hotties! WAR EAGLE

4:47 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Jay, I do think requiring registrations for the campfire to be a good idea. It sometimes gets too busy and it is hard to keep up.

Also, I would appreciate it if during campfires we don't bother to post things such as lol, rotflmao, and stuff like that. I don't have a problem with it when things are moving slow, but when things are running fast, I have trouble keeping up and those things just add to the issue.

As for allowing for disagreements, I have no problem with that. Even I do always agree with what I say.

4:48 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

Kristina - If you're in a "condition" you should make a point to be here! That always proves to be entertaining. :-)

4:48 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

WDE, wartiger....have fun

4:49 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Correction, even I don't always agree with what I type.

4:50 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

Steve - Is there a uniform we should wear while at the Campfire?

4:50 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Good question Monica, but I shouldn't elaborate. I favor a different uniform for women than men. We have a double standard for a good reason.

4:54 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

Steve, I don't think anyone expects us all to agree, but you know the dude's response was rude, not constructive and didn't contribute to the conversation at all other than to be rude.

But like you have said, he may just be used to the way things are done on other blogs and will hopefully have learned his lesson.

I blog on myspace, but I require registration because I don't like getting the ton of peope commenting on my blogs. In that sense, I guess I am hypocritical.

Blogger dan dan the AU fan said...

Monica if you have not seen The Happening already, don't. Definately worst horror movie, worst M. Night Sh??? movie, possibly worst movie period. If you decide to watch it and halfway through you're hoping it gets better, it doesn't.

5:06 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

I need a recomendation

5:07 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

dan, I kind of liked "The Happening", although I didn't really consider it a horror movie, but rather a political statement from tree huggers on how we treat our environment. Your disappointment may be because you were expecting horror. To me, it was similar to "The Legend" with Will Smith.

5:09 PM  
Blogger Beth said...

So Mr. FrontRim and I just arrived in Tupelo, we encountered many lovely sites along the way from Montgomery. The first was very hopeful... We stopped to get something to drink and pulled up next to a Yuengling truck. I just had to get out and take a picture. I hope that it was a sign. We also saw lots of orange and blue along the way. This made me very optimistic about the weekend. WDE to all… JGT… be careful the police are out in full force especially around Hamilton. I hope that everyone has a Happy Halloween and safe travels.

5:11 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

MrsFrontRim, by all means be careful. With it being halloween, every nut other than me will be out and about.

5:15 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

Mark - I'm 42 so that makes at least 10 of us on myspace over 40. :-)

Dan - thanks for the advice!!

5:17 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

Thanks for the road trip notes, MrsFrontRim!!! Very cool. Hope you're right about the optimistic signs.

5:19 PM  
Blogger dan dan the AU fan said...

Exactly Steve, it was promoted as a horror movie, scariest M. Night movie ever, not An Inconvenient Truth- The Revenge co-written by Al Gore.

5:26 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

I just read the funniest review about The Happenings - this guy said it was so bad it made him want to go out after the movie and stab a tree!LMAO

5:35 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

Hahaha, monica, that is something else. Part of why I liked the movie is because Mark Goldberg is in it. He isn't my favorite actor, but he has some good movies. He also recovered from one of the dumbest nicknames ever, Markie Mark.

5:38 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

By the way, thanks to all the Hotties for the pummeling of Tim (not anonymous Tim or not Tim) earlier. I do believe he got the message loud and clear.

5:43 PM

Marky Mark has made one fine producer, that's fo sho.

Not sure if you're an Entourage fan, but that's Mark too. (Ari is king!)

5:56 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

I love Entourage, but lets just keep that in between you and me. Don't tell nobody.

6:07 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

I have added another scary part to my avatar. Can you find the Tony Franklin grave? He has a headstone. Even scarier is the Terry Bowden gave, but it is kind of small and doesn't have a headstone. It has a cross, well, it is sort of a cross. We actually just found two sticks and tied them together.

6:12 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

LOL Steve you and that avatar.

(shhhh...I won't tell anyone that you're a closet Entourage watcher)

So let me get this straight. I post myself onto Facebook, and out of nowhere people are going to start asking me questions? About what exactly?

6:42 PM  
Blogger ADP said...

I just looked at the Pick 'em article on Rivals. Wow.

I have been watching Auburn for a long, long time and I can't remember ever being a dog to Ole Miss, ever. The vote was 10-2. Ouch.

Based on all the prognostication, I have reversed my prediction and now feel absolutely certain that AU will accidentally win.

Don't forget to tune in to The Gridiron Breakdown at 9:30 a.m. CDT Saturday.

We'll roll through the big games of the week and even talk a little NFL.

Jay G. Tate is scheduled to appear at the beginning of the show and you know you want to be there for that.

As always, if you miss it live, the mp3 archive is available for download around 12:30.

Thanks for the support Hotties!

I will be watching the game tommorow while watching your comments my man. Call all the Ole Miss players phone #'s about 2am this morning if your awake. Later Jay G.

Mr. Sensible, I look forward to listening to your show. Do me a favor. Make sure there is an unrealistically positive attitude about the Auburn game that will give me that warm, feel good feeling going on before the game.

well, the trick-or-treaters are gone. the dogs, cat, and wife are all asleep on the couches with me and i'm about to be there myself. goodness i feel old.

the wife and i decided to dress up to give out candy for the evening. i wanted to be the scariest, most pathetic looking costume i could fin.... so i dressed up as a Tennessee football player. egads! it was pretty funny. i had several guys asking me to join the team. it's just that bad up here in big orange country. at least we're better than them, or so i think.

Blogger Scott M. Brannan said...

several of our neighbors went to 'trunk-or-treats'. i hear people decorated the trunks of their cars in parking lots and they got candy from there. i think they were at churches.

it's only our second year in our house and the 1st time we've been together on halloween so we thought we'd do the dress up thing. brownie points for Scottie...cha-ching!

Hey Wartiger - Did you notice that I was able to add HABOTN to the blogs I follow? I did it through Google Reader.

Well I am back from HSM3 and declined the party invite. We're lame.

Anyway, I'll be in and out (like you care :-).

Now we should start a hottie facebook group!

See, if you had gone to that party you would have been way too.....tired to think of that idea! ;-)

Anonymous Anonymous said...

Sure, Oliver was on JOX earlier in the week saying the only reason Alabama started 0-3 in 1990 was because Stallings didn't have the team in condition.

Finebaum played the clip for Stallings today and he was about ready to spit nails, but held his fire.

He essentially told Finebaum to ask some of the players on that team if they were in shape or not.

10:00 PM  
Blogger michael said...

Is the wood ready for the campfire? Someone find Greg Schiano and get him to chop some if we are out.

10:00 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

This all goes back to Oliver being bitter because he didn't get the UA job because Stallings stayed for several years after the 1992 season. Oliver was promised the job by Hootie Ingram. However, Hootie was forced to retire in 1995, which left Oliver without his biggest supporter.

10:01 PM

Oh that's old Oliver news from earlier this week, right?

10:06 PM

Hey Kristina are you setting up that group? If not I'm going to do it while we're waiting on Campfire. Should it be HABOTN or HOTTIES?

So despite being called cheesy there is now a HABOTN group on facebook...ooo shoukld I have waited for Jay to start this?

10:13 PM
