Furlough, Pt. II: Day Three (Tuesday)
Hey everyone. It's Day Three of my latest unpaid furlough, which Gannett hopes will help offset its challenging financial situation. As a loyal employee, I blame outside problems -- chiefly predatory lenders -- as the reason behind my company's issues.
Suspension of disbelief? Perhaps.
Anyway, I am not able to blog. It's forbidden.
I have pre-loaded daily threads to pop up at 9 a.m. CDT so the conversations that make the HABOTN so delicious resume. Please don't be scared, angered or turned off my my parent company's difficulties. I'm very spendthrift.
Peace and love.

Long live HABOTN!!!
is it august
We miss you Jay!
CriminalT - I told you it was a bammer! No AU fan would be so rude ;-)
Dear Leader, unfortunately, it is not. August can't get here soon enough. In the meantime, it looks like you're working on your tan?
New Finebaum article:
Paul Finebaum: From a perception standpoint, it appears Auburn has gotten the better of Saban
http://blog.al.com/press-register-sports/2009/05/paul_finebaum_from_a_perceptio.html
HAT TRICK!! For all in a 4-3 Victory.
If Crosby and Ovechkin did not play.
1-0 Caps.
Jay, we all hope you have a great day.
The main message from the Auburn coaching staff is we will fight you every day all the way. We WILL win some battles and you can bet the house it is not going to be easy for you.
Finebaum writes an article talking about Auburn getting the better of Nick Saban, did that really happen or am I dead?
Q. What did the bear say to the barber?
A. Make the fur-low, please.
Get it?!!?!
Sean - Welcome to Heaven!
Boxhead - stop it.
Happy Cinco de Mayo!
While it's not a real holiday south of the border, who is going to turn down a chance to indulge in tacos and adult beverages?
I most definitely am not for turning down good food nor adult beverages.
Mind-scum will always keep his nose in the wind looking for opportunities to exagerrate, aggravate and thus improve ratings.
Just like when he slams AU, he overstated the importance so take this with a grain of salt. The limos were a nice move and bothered a few Bammers, but only his neurotic callers really care that much.
Now if those callers would get a life, he would be out of business.
Thank you for coming to get me, Gatiger!
I was talking to y'all on the old thread and I asked some very important questions over there!
I've noticed that the national news has gotten on board coverage of Cinco de Mayo as a celebration for the people. That's great.....celebrate the neighboring country's independence day.
Cheap Beers or Margs at the local Mexican Bar are a good thing. Now if the press will list the bars with the best deals on alcohol..I'm all over that.
MonD...haven't seen you for a while...have you been stuck on old threads? haha.
I mean...polly everyone but Dear Leader(F5 master) has done that at least once.
Cinco de Mayo isn't Mexico's "independence day". Just saying.
That would be a safe assumption, Hoopie! I seem to have a talent for staying stuck on old threads.
My dear Muthah is visiting so I've been otherwise occupied.
Who cares what the actual meaning is for them? For us it's Coronas/Tequila/Margarita and anything with a tortilla day.
Sean - is this be an asshat day for you?
Absolutely...I'm still bitter about having to be at work on a day like today, just a few years ago, days like St. Patty's and Cinco de Mayo were bona fide all day events, now they're relegated to happy hour and responsible behavior.
Thank you for the email, Gatiger. You're a pal. ;-)
Sean you have a job where you can post on HABOTN all day. So stop your whining.
Well somedays are better than others, today is one of those you mentioned.
Fair enough. Whine away.
OMNICA - I help out where I can. Like now...in the words of "Motorist", 'people, I just wanna say, can't we all just get along?'. Please Mon, you and Sean don't fight. You know how it upsets us kids.
We weren't fighting, but I apologize for the upset. Only love here for my Hotties.
I'm already upset, but I'll cry with further complaining.
morning Hotties..Looks like those of you in Alabama have been putting up with some nasty weather..hope all is well for ya'll..
awww I'm sorry, Criminal. Please accept some cyber comfort from me.
Just for you, Gatiger.
"Who loves ya, baby?"
You guys are a bunch of Bammer idiots!
Party
Jhag - What is in Newport News? I saw you asked how it was.
You guys aren't true Auburn fans!
Loose ends from yesterday's thread:
Aubie - No sir, I've never been up in a plane before.
Chip Chip - I am not personally filled with peanut butter, but I can hook you up with some AU chocs with some peanut butter marbled right through the logo!
Finally, maybe there is something to the Scotts from Prattville thing. In high school, I was one of 5 Scotts on our soccer team, plus there were quite a few more in the school population. Pretty much all of us just answered to our last names.
Bo Jackson? Graduation Speaker???
LOL! He's a great representative for education alright!
I thought he had gone back some time later and got the paper from that diploma mill of a school, but him as a graduation speaker shows you how NOT valuable an Auburn education is.
Just when I thought the Barn couldn't look any stupider, they go out and do this.
What a freaking joke!
Bo Jackson - OVER-RATED! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP CLAP CLAP! OVER-RATED! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP CLAP CLAP!
some troll food:
scott, send shark some of your bammer specific candies.
bo only overcame great odds to even make it to any college period, co-owns a bank, is a gourmet chef, has his own gourmet foods company, has a trophy that zero bama players have ever won, played in the pro-bow, won mvp of mlb all-star game, could hit the major league curve, run over boz and ronnie lott, and ran the fastest time ever at the nfl combine.
where are great snake, namath, humphrey, bear (dead), mccants, hunter?
ten minutes of al.com is over.
My name is not Scott.
Keep it down home, cuz.P.S. I wouldn't trade any of the National Championships for an individual award that doesn't mean jack beyond college.
Formerly Cobra as in Cobra Commander?
Salsa - "stupider", did you learn that particular word at one of your classes at UAT?
This comment has been removed by the author.
Evidently he can only show up when JGT is out on furlough.
I see a knuckle dragger got lost and wondered in.
Too bad since he is only 10 hairs short of being a baboon.
I always heard that girls go to Jupiter to get more stupider, while boys got to Mars to get more candy bars.
Gone like the wind...or the Cowboys training facility.
jabberjaw,
you personally have the trading rights to the 12?
i know some bammer players that actually earned those NCs that may take exception to that.
i think this guy is jgt just effin' with us!
Does anyone else think the lady on the Travel Channel, Samantha Brown, is hot?
Will - Need a pic to make the determination.
I realize who you speak of.
I personally would not use the word hot to describe her, but, to each his own.
Will, I agree on Samantha Brown. By the way, I saw her husband on one of her shows. He completely out-kicked his coverage. On a semi-related topic, some of you probably know who Padma Lakshmi is (one of the "Top Chef" hosts and former Bollywood actress). She is married to Salman Rushdie, author of "The Satanic Verses". I don't get it. Maybe he has nice calves.
Correction - apparently Padma and Salman Rushdie got divorced a while back. I guess I'm not up on my pop culture. Good grief - how long till football?
AU1N04, that's the thing, I don't get it either. I am usually more of a Megan Fox, Marissa Miller kind of guy (but then again who isn't). She is hot in a "the kind of girl you should marry and in doing so, not piss off your parents" sort of way.
On the other end of the spectrum, I think Kat Von D is super hot too.
Will - I agree with you on the bring home to the family. I would lean towards the cute side. Padma, HOT, and the scar makes it even better. And yes, Rushdie and her are done.
Kat Von D - Is one that you don't bring home, but definitely have with your friends around.
She even had a coworker that's name was Pixie I think. Way hot!
bo came back to au and finished his degree and started a successful business after his sports career. mal moore just paid some money to get one at uat--you can hear the lack of 6th grade language comprehension in his voice every time he tries to answer a question and he hired some great football coaches, didn't he.
i find smantha brown to be completely un-hot and obnoxious. she travels the world getting paid to do fun stuff that most of us will only experience a fraction of. they need to switch her out for the porn star that hosts world's sexiest beaches.
Will - I totally agree. Samantha is sexy in a girl-next-door sort of way. I love her show. I especially enjoyed it when she went to Austin and got a little freaky.
Scott Chocolate welcome to the HABOTN. Any Hottie with chocolate in his name is a very close friend of mine.
I like Giada De Laurentiis on Everyday Italian. Yummy.
Thanks, Monica! Ehyou - Giada definitely has her moments of hotness (and a few of notness - not sure why. Maybe it's all the talking with her mouth full).
Well I'm just learning new names all over this blog today. Since these folks aren't found on Sportscenter, News, American Chopper, Deadliest Catch or a small handful of network shows I have no idea who they are.
The only name you need to know is Monica.
Mon is the greatest.
But please pay attention to Giada who I love. Everything that she eats, is rich and creamy. Everything is creamy. It is so dreamy!!
Also nutty.
That was poetic, AU1.
Alright, I'm back and this time with no whining. I did see two peeps arrested during my lunch excursion...that's higher than normal.
HA @ "higher than normal"
fun stuff like that never happens to me
Mrs. Jet is No. 1 in my BCS.
Since the majority of my lunches are spent right where I'm currently sitting, it is extremely rare that I see people arrested.
Jet - how was it?
Thank you Mon.
My lunch break consisted of a woman who had walked around the office trying to get some excersize, before coming back inside, stopped in front of my window hiked up her sweater walked in place and looked at the window at her backside to see how it looked.
I spit out my soda since she could not see me. Why do people think office windows are mirrors?
I am still waiting for the really hot girl to do that....not happening.
GaTiger ...
It was really fun. The seniors and their kindergarten buddies paraded around the Quad to the cheers of the rest of the school. Only one senior didn't have his tassel on his cap -- guess who?
Then the seniors formed an arch for the kindergarteners to go through, then they released balloons. The seniors gave their parents a rose and a letter.
WTC was there, fighting off tears.
And it was muggy as New Orleans in August. Mrs. Jet and I went to Street Cafe, read the letter and cried, then ate shrimp bowls.
AU1...this will make you jealous...I was on spring break a couple of weeks ago and all of us were hanging out by the pool. Well there is this group of college cheerleaders from IU there playing some kind of game with a beach ball and they're all jumping around...well let's just say two of them jumped too hard and there was subsequent wardrobe malfunctions...
I'm sure that was very nice.
I'm guessing part of the reason you and I didn't do that is because the campus wasn't too easy on the eyes. Certainly not like what you're paying for these days.
Sean you're still doing spring break?
Was it graduation day, Jet?
Funny story, AU1. I wish I could tell you my Henig Furs building story.
You mean the story where you were wearing one of their furs and nothing else? That story?
Mon ...
Senior Sendoff day ... essentially their last day before exams. Graduation is May 18. But it was a neat day.
Hopefully have photos on FB up later. His kindergarten buddy is a huge Auburn fan, too. They are a pair.
Hello.
Dom DeLuise, who nearly single handedly ruined a great movie with that ridiculous turn at the end of "Blazing Saddles" has died.
But he was Oscar worthy in "The Cannonball Run" series.
I think I get the picture involving the kindergartens kids and that is very cool. Neat idea. I bet it was a great day.
Close, Gatiger.
I miss spring break..but am happy spring is here.
Mon, it sounds like a story I will have to wait for.
Jet - Have you ever heard of The MICA Company?
I knew it Mon.
I figured it was that or the story of when you stole that cow, and your friend tried to make it with the cow...
Dang it, GaTiger ... you got it out of your keyboard before I could.
Mon ... MICA? No.
That cow was NOT stolen.
Jet - great minds...
A "rented" cow? Wow.
That cow was asking for it right?
The cow just followed you home? All on it's own?
Young calves are lured away from the pasture and forced into the business and exploited. It's sad, really sad.
The burning question in my mind, did this occur in Brewton or across the tracks in East Brewton?
Cowthumping is not allowed in Brewton......
now East Brewton
that is a different story
Young calves to me = Veal.
Murder Creek ... the south Alabama Mason-Dixon line.
Dang, I'd forgotten all about that one.
Google street view has extensively surveyed the Brewton metro area. I'm impressed.
AWAY GOAL MANCHESTER UNITED!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1-0 early first half. I'm pumped!
2-0 MANCHESTER UNITED!!!!!!!! SWEET!!!! Rome, here we come!!!!!!!!! Good night Arsenal, only 11 minutes in.
Eddie, that will do it. No way Arsenal scores 3...and doesn't let Man U score again.
See, I couldn't even type that fast enough. Sad.
Sean- Arsenal has to score 4 goals at this point with the away goal differential. I had a bad feeling about this game, but I'm really enjoying it now. I'm off work in PC watching the game now. Good way to spend a couple of hours.
Sorry, Sean, disregard my 4 goal post. I see you were behind :).
I know, it was still 1-0 when I was typing the first response. I didn't think they were going to win. They needed at least one goal on the road to have a shot.
well developed calves are hawt
What league is that y'all are following?
Champion's League, ehyou.
Are the clubs all from UK?
Nope, they're from the various European leagues. This is just a coincidence.
Monica ...
What about Gus' calves?
Admittedly, his calves are disappointing.
This talk of soccer and men's calves holds no interest to me.
Thankfully.....for several reasons... the recruits aren't concerned with Gus's underdeveloped calves.
I can't say too much about them though....mine are similar
And obviously to no one else.
gatiger...
How a smoked boston butt with some vinegar bbq sauce on the side? Potato salad, baked beans, rolls. That's what interests me.
Meh, no matter. It's almost 4, I've been sitting at this desk since 6:20am and I'm feeling fairly certain that I'm about to leave. That being the case, I'll catch you cats tomorrow.
ehyou - I like that. I like that alot.
I picked clean the first Boston Butt I bought Friday, and have a second one on hand. ehyou ... that sounds tasty. Very tasty.
What has become of this place? Gus' calves and soccer?
It's like I don't even know any of you.
Soooooo...will Nick Fairley begin his Auburn career on the DL or the OL?
OL out of need.
His future is as a DL force. I think the hope is to play him there.
This blog definitely could use some good old fashioned OL discussion.

Meerkat?
Old hat!
Chop block?
What a crock!
Hugh Nall?
Trucker's haul!
Snap's on 3.
Don't move Lee.
RT blocks 4 u?
McCain's gotta do.
Sensible, I've seen where the originator of said rumor said something about him wanting out of his LOI while at Hargrave...he hasn't been there since spring of 2008.
Thanks for the clarification, Sean.
I figured it was just rumor. It's that time of year.
It's interesting that there is a sticky on the Arky Rivals page...but I obviously can't see that post.
I been missin' my Hottie friends, and I'm sure y'all have been missin' my drivel. Just drove by to say hi, gotta get back to work.
WARRRRRR EAGLE!!!
oh, one more thing... I'm never too busy to HATE UA-T!!!
I just talked to Benton and he said he is 100% Auburn.

That's a little personal, don't you think?
Fine. His favorite color is teal.
Teal? He actually said 'Teal'? Forget it, let him go.

I thought a teal was a duck.
DeAngelo "The Duck" Benton.
Not quite as fierce as Eltoro "The Bull"
DeAngelo "El Pato" Benton?
No, he's a wide receiver he wants us to throw ... so it's DeAngelo "El Paso" Benton.
that's very complex and layered, jet
I'm not complex, but I am layered.
That's why I didn't want to tell you guys. I know you would make fun of him. Poor DB, people are always making fun of him.
I miss the Criminal.
Can we run amok and do whatever we want....like when there was no Death on Family Guy?
Just like a liberal, Monica.
Soft on crime.
Just like a conservative Jet - favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change.
Layered? Does that mean someone is stacking it pretty high?
So since Jay G is gone, can we finally discuss waterboarding?
I think she's already somewhat established that Jet. Re: her earlier remark that the cow wasn't stolen. Semantics I say. It depends on what the meaning of 'is' is.
Michael,
I'm all about change. I think Gus, Trooper, and Luper is change we can believe in.
And because Jay is basically banhammered for the week, I think it appropriate to introduce you to a concept I came up with quite some time back. The original title was "Blog Nekkid Fridays", but "Comment Nekkid Fridays" works. So, everyone, except Michael, get ready for "Comment Nekkid Friday", a first for HABOTN.
Whatever SteveFC - me and Jan Terri both are joining in!
Sorry Michael, but the Jan Terri visual just ruined my day.
And I am all for waterboarding. Obama is a sissy.
I think he has handled the Iraq and Afghanistan pretty well though. Honestly, he is handling it just like McCain would have.
What the heck was up with those tea parties a few weeks ago? Don't people realize that we have representation? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!
By the way, on a more serious note, kind of, I read an article on Trooper Taylor on Undercover the other day. After reading it, I suddenly found myself with a man crush on Chizik.
As all of you know, I thought Tuberville deserved a chance to turn things around, but that doesn't mean I don't like the Chiz.
In reading the Trooper article, I get the impression that Chizik really gets it in terms of being an Auburn man. The emphasis on family and the kids getting their education is something I love. Pat Dye didn't tend to emphasize academics and that was the one knock I had on him. Of course, Terry Bowden emphasized cheerleaders. I like where Chizik's head is at. Of course we could always drop back to cheerleaders.
Jan Terri emphasizes a Journey to Mars.
In terms of the war on terror, Obama seems to be just continuing with the plan Bush had, although he did change the name to something kinder and gentler, although I can recall what.
In terms of the economy, it seems like Obama is Bush to the second power. Bush wanted to spend the money. Obama wants to spend more. We shall see how it works out.
Obama cut my taxes, just like Bush did.
Bush also appropriated 1 trillion dollars last fall. We will see if Obama ever matches that. Crazy times.
Steve,
I read the same article... Trooper says he doesn't have a depth chart, he has the Taylor Family, and that all the players now have the last name "Taylor"
Tim Hawthorne Taylor
Philip Pierre Louis Taylor
I love it.
You boys are treading on mighty thin ice here. Monica is going to come back soon and yell at you both.
Man, I make a joke about Monica being a liberal and soft on crime, and Countdown with Keith Olbermann breaks out.
Good covering move Jet. Boxhead and Steve are not safe from her ire.
Personally,
I'd like to see Monica take an ire tool to Steve and Michael and see what happens.
Keith Olbermann is a prickwhore just like Urban Meyer, but without the winning football team.
However, I must disagree with those who share the view of my dad and Jet that if we don't stop him, Obama will be sending our kids to indoctrination camps. I have heard some compare Obama's rise to Hitler's rise in power. Simple nuts.
And since Monica abdicated the thrown, I have been Queen of HABOTN and thus fear her not.
simple nuts = simply nuts, but funnier.
Michael,
While I'm a conservative, I don't think I've opined that my children will be going to indoctrination camps.
Who needs them anyway, when you've got the mainstream media??
Michael,
Forget not that you are also King of Eurasia.
Hey Jet, quiz question: What is the difference between Barack Obama/Bill Clinton and George Bush/Ronald Reagan? Obama and Clinton are actually able to admit to themselves that they likes big government and thus make an attempt to pay for it.
HABOTN is one of the few places that still does not recognize Eurasia's status as a sovereign state, so it gives me no power here. I have been meaning to talk to Jay G about that.
Since you answered the question for me, do I still get a 100?
Michael ...
Are you a member of the Tri-Lateral Commissioner?
Yes... but the question was out of 456. So 100 is not all that good.
I guess I'll need one of the federal government grade bailouts.
I had to look up what the trilateral commission is, and after doing so, I have decided that it sounds like an interesting group. I plan on a hostile takeover to seize control using the forces of Eurasia.
If I give you a bailout, then I must also force a bailout on gatiger, who then must abide by the restrictions that come with said bailout. So... yeah, why the heck not! Your bailout is on its way, Jet.
Great!
Now, I'm an honors graduate.
Right Jet, but as part of the deal, all of your grandchildren will be kicked out of school after the 3rd grade.
Then they'll be able to compete evenly with UAT grads for employment.
I continue to miss the Criminal.
Monica ...
Oh, nevermind.
told ya
What do you think about waterboarding, Monica?
I prefer water skiing.
or kneeboarding
Someone make Brett Favre go away!
I said Brett Favre not the Hotties!
Wait to go, AU1
Tray Blackmon has signed with the CFL Calgary Stampeders
Blackmon
Seriously, what's Brett's problem?? He could have retired a legend...now he's retiring as an old miserable cuss who just wants to stick it to Green Bay. I think it's his day to be an asshat.
Big Cat ...
Is he now "The Little Ball of Eh?"
Sean ...
I think he's been an asshat since he came out of retirement.
Cat - Well now he can take care of his family and responsibilities which is good. Best of luck to him.
Favre, no idea.
Good luck to Blackmon. I never imagined when he came to Auburn that one day he would be playing in the CFL. As for Favre, I hope he signs with the Vikings and the Packers stomp him in the ground this fall.
Wow, did anyone see the piece on al.com about Anthony Mix? He was indicted by a grand jury for having sex with a 15-year old girl.
I'm checking in here before I head up for bed.
I'm prepared to push this thread past 200 all by my lonesome.
When you walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road.
