Norm said...: BOOYAH!!!; 1:09 PM
Unknown said...: Just took a look at the UT billboards. Doesn't Kiffikin have to meet some kind of dress code to be put on a billboard? Our billboard wins hand down.; 1:09 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Hot dog! No one can turn a page like Norm!; 1:09 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: NSN is back!; 1:09 PM
Norm said...: New page smell. There you go Doc.

Keep Hate Alive.; 1:10 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: well, he's wearing more than the nymph, so I guess it's ok; 1:10 PM
Monica said...: Luda is not with OutKast, but they did tour together I think.

I'm telling you I'd pay to view your webcam!; 1:10 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: absolutely hatin this afternoon. Nothing else to do.; 1:11 PM
Monica said...: It's rainy here, Greg is sleeping off a cold and I'm a little on the bored side myself.; 1:12 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: how 'bout a kitty web cam?; 1:12 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: it's hot and dry here and very windy. The wind feels like it's coming straight off the Mojave.; 1:13 PM
Norm said...: Well thanks for the correction. That's not exactly my style of "music" so I don't know about them but I'm pretty sure it was Ludacris because I've seen his picture and he does live here.; 1:13 PM
Monica said...: THT - I'm quite sure you can pay for that kind of webcam. Email me for my rates.

Norm - Luda lives where? He's one of my faves. STAND UP!; 1:15 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: mentioning Ludacris reminds me of Murderus which reminds me that it's only 7 days til last season of Monk starts.; 1:15 PM
Norm said...: Mon - he lives in the ATL area. Heck, he could live quite near me for all I know. Plenty of other famous sports dudes or "entertainers" do. But, I can't drive past their houses because of those stupid security gates which keep lowlifes like me out.; 1:20 PM
Aeronaut said...: Wasn't someone supposed to announce his verbal commitment today?; 1:24 PM
Unknown said...: I think you are right. I read somewhere about Page initially playing bass in the yardbirds.; 1:25 PM
Norm said...: Aero - touche', nicely done.; 1:25 PM
Unknown said...: What is a Ludacris?; 1:27 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Steve,

It's the title of the DVD of the 2008 Auburn football team.; 1:28 PM
mytommyd said...: Steve, a Ludacris is like a Fiddy which should not be confused with a Forty, of which Fiddy and Luda have probably partaken; 1:30 PM
mytommyd said...: Tommyd Thread halter
TYVM; 1:43 PM
Harrison said...: you guys ever play Edward Fortyhands?; 1:43 PM
michael said...: I am a good dancer.; 1:50 PM
Harrison said...: i get forced to dance sometimes. I hate it. I do like to watch people dance though, it's hilarious; 1:56 PM
mytommyd said...: Time for James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub; 1:58 PM
Monica said...: Do you dance better with the box on or off?; 1:59 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Hot tub!

Hot! Hot!

Full of water!; 2:00 PM
mytommyd said...: Rubba dub in the hot tub; 2:01 PM
Monica said...: Norm every time there's a movie reference will you IM and hook me up? Prec; 2:01 PM
j-z said...: Haven't done Edward Fortyhands in a long time...but I'm up for it again.; 2:01 PM
michael said...: Gonna make me sweat-uh!; 2:03 PM
j-z said...: Next time you're in LA Norm,

This is what's for dinner...,; 2:03 PM
Harrison said...: ooooowwww too hot! make it cool-uh; 2:05 PM
Monica said...: Nick Fairley = ready to get his practice on; 2:05 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Had never heard of Edward Fortyhands until today. I just looked it up. That's pretty funny!; 2:05 PM
j-z said...: Scott....for some people that could also be called Ernest & Julio Gallohands.; 2:07 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Should I get in the not tub?!
Will it make me sweat?!; 2:08 PM
WarEagleRK said...: hot; 2:08 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Same era at James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub, but funnier.; 2:08 PM
Monica said...: Digital Landscape Changes for SEC Fans; 2:08 PM
Norm said...: "The waffle leads the chicken to the stomach like a sherpa" classic; 2:08 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: M/D 20/20 hands?; 2:12 PM
michael said...: Trivia - at 2:15 or so, the shop keeper is Jim Downey. You may also know this long time SNL scribe as the quiz giver in Billy Madison.

"We are all dummer from having heard your answer."; 2:14 PM
michael said...: ^on Jay G's video; 2:14 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.; 2:18 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Jay G,

That skit was great...however the best Eddie Murphy skits other than the two we've talked about on here were the "Buh-Wheat has been shot" and "Buh-Wheat lives".

Also, it's hard to go to that page and not watch "Motherlover" and "___ in a box" from the digital shorts.; 2:20 PM
Jet said...: Boy, I step out for luncn, and all sorts of fun breaks out.

Monica, I do not give my permission for you to disseminate any private communications.; 2:21 PM
Monica said...: pout; 2:21 PM
Harrison said...: Farley/Swayze Chippendale's is still my fave SNL skit of all time; 2:24 PM
WarEagleRK said...: I think I'm one of the 5 people on the planet that didn't find Chris Farley that funny.

He was funny, but it seemed everyone else thought he was far better than I did.; 2:25 PM
Norm said...: Yes, but do you think he shot Buckwheat?

Oh yeah, absolutely. No doubt about it. It's all he ever talked about.; 2:25 PM
Monica said...: I'm one of the other ones.; 2:25 PM
Jet said...: "Little Women" -- with David Hyde Pierece, David Spade, Farley, and Garafolo (I think).

My fave.; 2:26 PM
michael said...: My dad didn't think Farley was funny. When I would laugh hard at him, he would tell me he sucks and the original cast was so much better, blah blah blah.

And you know what? For a couple of years, E! played episodes from the first couple of season, and they really weren't all that good. Definitely not as good at the Carvey/Farley overlap era. The show was awesome back then.; 2:29 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: j-z, here's a great resource for your next party:

Fine wines

Be sure to read the reviews and rankings. You don't want to embarrass yourself in front of all the oenophiles (and other philes) in P'ville.; 2:29 PM
Norm said...: I'm kind of partial to Harry Shearer & Martin Short's "Synchronized Swimming" bit.; 2:29 PM
Harrison said...: Norm- love that skit too.
i tend to agree with michael that original cast was overrated, maybe it's a generational thing; 2:32 PM
Harrison said...: choc- i'm gonna get me one o'them bum wine t-shirts; 2:33 PM
michael said...: It is so overplayed now that I don't even laugh at it, but the first time I saw the "Cowbell" sketch, I just about had a heart attack.

I loved everything Farley did. The first Matt Foley sketch (once again, before I saw it 1,000 times) probably made me laugh the hardest. Also loved the Japanese game show sketch, his Cindy character in the Gap Girls sketches, the Zagat reader character, the Herlihy boy, the "We replaced your coffee" hidden camera sketch, loved it all.; 2:35 PM
Norm said...: I think it's time & place. I enjoyed alot of the original cast. But with the exception of a very few bits, if I caught them on reruns I'd be really disappointed.

And I agree with Boxhead's dad. Farley was never funny to me. That's just him personally, not an entire cast better than another.; 2:35 PM
michael said...: I think the original cast was just so "cool" when they came out, they could sort of skate on that. They were more cutting edge than hilarious in my opinion.

Now there is cable TV and much more crude movies, so they don't have that edginess anymore. Now they are just stuck trying to be funny.; 2:36 PM
Monica said...: Greg wants to know why Boone's Farm isn't included on BumWine.com; 2:38 PM
Harrison said...: i also loved Norm MacDonald on Update. i still think he is hilarious; 2:41 PM
j-z said...: Girls drink Boone's farm. I think "bum" is traditionally associated with males.

The Cisco review is dead on. My one Cisco experience led to an evening of bad, bad things. Thank God the records were expunged.; 2:41 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: owwwwooooooccchhhh; 2:42 PM
michael said...: Yes, Norm was definitely my favorite update anchor of all time. Did you ever watch his sitcom? It was only on for a couple of seasons, but it was hilarious (The one titled "Norm", not the "Minute with Stan Hooper." That was actually quite unfunny)

Harrison, check out Norm's roast of Bob Saget. Absolutely hilarious:

http://videogum.com/archives/stand-up-comedy/norm-macdonalds-genius-roast-of-bob-saget_015201.html; 2:43 PM
WarEagleRK said...: I think everything Norm MacDonald has done is funny.

Even when he's telling a bad joke, he tells it in a way that makes it funny.; 2:45 PM
Harrison said...: yeah, i watch anything norm does on the internet or tv. I did watch "norm", i don't think i saw "stan hooper" though.; 2:45 PM
Monica said...: tht do you think he was trying to insult my Greg?; 2:45 PM
j-z said...: Not at all....promise.; 2:46 PM
michael said...: You didn't miss anything with the Stan Hooper show. It had an incredible cast and was incredibly unfunny. One of those head scratchers.

I think Norm could make a living just going on talk shows. He is always hilarious on Conan and Letterman.; 2:47 PM
Harrison said...: Conan can't stop giggling when Norm is on his show. then again, neither can I; 2:49 PM
Harrison said...: RK- then you need to watch the roats of sagat. It's really bad jokes, masterfully done by Norm; 2:50 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Mon - Here is the reasoning from BumWine.com: Boone's Farm just does not have enough alcohol per volume to be a bum wine. In a bum's mind, heavy-hitting competitors such as T-Bird, Rosie, and Wild-I leave Boones in the dust. If Boone's would make a 17% alcohol per volume version at the same price, perhaps bums would reach for it. This sugary swill is more of an underage drinker's economy wine than a bum wine. You won't find empty Boone's bottles in any rail yard or heating vent, but you will find it in the local bowling alley parking lot or make-out spot. There is just no bumvidence to substantiate the bumsworthiness of Boone's Farm; 2:50 PM
Monica said...: bumvidence - love it!

Thanks, Scott; 2:51 PM
Harrison said...: bumwine.com has really done it's homework. Good for them.; 2:52 PM
Norm said...: Having nothing whatsoever to do with his name, I've also been a Norm MacDonald fan too. I watched both of his tv shows too and pretty much agree with Michael.; 2:58 PM
Jet said...: I've always enjoyed Norm MacDonald's impersonation of Bob Dole.; 3:06 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: i thought Dan Akroyd did the Bob Dole impersonation; 3:08 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Norm MacDonald as Clint Eastwood on "Inside the Actors Studio" was incredible.; 3:09 PM
Jet said...: Aykroyd did him first. Norm did him better.; 3:09 PM
Norm said...: I'll have to search for that one RK, I don't remember it offhand.; 3:11 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Norm,

I was on the show that Norm hosted a year or so after he was fired.

That show was great because Norm went out there and didn't care what he did because he was still pissed about what happened when he got fired.; 3:17 PM
Norm said...: If you know of a link for it, please pass it on.; 3:36 PM
michael said...: What do you mean you were "on the show"? Are you an old SNL cast member, rk?

I liked his opening monologue for that show, about how he was fired for being unfunny, yet now he was funny enough to host the show, so he guesses that the show had actually just gotten so unfunny that he was finally funny in comparison.; 3:38 PM
WarEagleRK said...: I meant to say "it was on the show" instead of "I was on the show".

One little letter can change the meaning.; 3:41 PM
Norm said...: RK - Michael's just being a Bammer. I knew what you meant.; 3:42 PM
michael said...: I remember on the show Norm hosted, he played Lou Gehrig doing his "luckiest man in the world" speech. After he said that, he said, "I was joking. I'm not lucky. I have a disease so rare, they named it after me. LUCKY ME!!!"

I think I remember the audience not laughing that much, but me dying of laughter, which you were used to as a Norm fan SNL watcher.; 3:44 PM
michael said...: Proud to be a Bammer!

Yeah, I knew what you meant to, but I am a trouble maker.; 3:44 PM
WarEagleRK said...: "I wanted to keep my job, they thought the exact opposite. They didn't want me anymore because they said I was not funny. At most jobs, I'd have a heck of a lawsuit on my hands."; 3:45 PM
WarEagleRK said...: "The bad news is, I'm still not funny. The good news is, the show blows."; 3:47 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Those are two quotes I remember from Norm's opening monologue when he came back.

That and he dropped a G.D. in there somewhere to get everyone mad at him.; 3:48 PM
Harrison said...: right after he was fired Norm was on Letterman one night. hilarious. It's worth finding on you tube; 3:51 PM
michael said...: Yeah, it's on youtube somewhere. Harrison kept trying to get him to say Lorne Michaels was a schmuck if I remember correctly.; 3:53 PM
Harrison said...: I did not!; 3:55 PM
michael said...: HA!!! I meant Letterman.

I am so confused. It's Friday. I love Lamp. 2 minutes til Puppet Hour. Fitting.; 3:58 PM
michael said...: I hear a trumpet.
I hear a sound.
The Piper is playing.
Puppets can't be drowned.

-Longfellow; 4:00 PM
Norm said...: News Team! Assemble!; 4:02 PM
Dear Leader said...: ok I may be late to the party but what is up with this??

Birmingham sister, brother sentenced to prison for stealing $250,000 from Barber Dairy Co.
Posted by Robert K. Gordon -- Birmingham News July 30, 2009 4:04 PM
A Birmingham woman told a judge Thursday that officials at Barber Dairy Co. allowed her to use a company credit card in exchange for steering her son to play football at the University of Alabama.
U.S. District Judge Scott Coogler dismissed the claim by Robin Lee Jones and sentenced her to four years in prison for stealing $250,000 from the company. Coogler sentenced Jones' brother, Robert Lee, to 23 months in prison.
Both are responsible for paying $256,963 in restitution and must serve three years' supervised release after their prison terms are served.
Jones worked for eight years at the dairy company and oversaw the company's Fuelman credit card system.
Each company driver has a card to make purchases for vehicle items such as fuel. Jones had no card for her personal use, the plea agreement said. The card was used to make diesel fuel purchases for RJ Trucking, company owned by Jones and Lee.
The card was also used for repairs on cars owned by Jones and her family, court records show.
Coogler said Jones' claim of an agreement between her and the company was out of bounds.
"If she isn't guilty, then she shouldn't have pleaded guilty," Coogler said, adding it was too late to re-open the case.
Jones' son, Dominic Lee, was a defensive tackle for Alabama from 2003 to 2006.

Footnote: Dominic Lee is the cousin of Andre Smith (you know, the one who left early, and was told to leave during Sugar Bowl practice by Saban because of “dealings with agents”).; 4:03 PM
j-z said...: But they can be
Doused in gasoline
and immolated.

The J-Z remix; 4:03 PM
michael said...: I would never accept an invitation for a beer at the white house, because by the time all the travel expenses are paid, I could have just had a beer at home for cheaper.

Also, I would be scared of Joe Biden putting date rape drugs in my drink.; 4:04 PM
michael said...: Combining the Eddie Murphy, SNL, and poetry themes:

Dark and lonely on a summer's night
Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Watchdog barking
Do he bite?
Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Slip in his window
Break his neck
Then his house
I start to wreck
Got no reason
What the heck
Kill my Landlord
Kill my landlord
C-I-L-L
my landlord; 4:07 PM
Norm said...: Prose and Cons, a good one.; 4:15 PM
Harrison said...: I wouldn't go to white house for a beer either because one beer just makes me mad.; 4:34 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: wow, instead of killing puppets, Norm killed puppet hour; 4:34 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: aw, Harrison, you made my post look even stupider; 4:35 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I am flabbergasted that there are over 300 posts on a day with NO news.; 4:36 PM
Harrison said...: i make most things look stupid; 4:36 PM
Unknown said...: I would go to the White House for a beer because it's convenient and they probably have real Guinness from Ireland.; 4:37 PM
Jet said...: I'd say Dear Leader gave us something to discuss.; 4:40 PM
Monica said...: With Jet, I concur.; 4:44 PM
Unknown said...: Hmmm, An unsupported allegation that a company bribed a player's mother with no link to the Bammer staff is worth discussing?

We know this kind of stuff goes on. What's new?; 4:49 PM
Jet said...: I don't know if she can support it or not ... the judge just ignored it because she pleaded guilty.; 4:54 PM
Harrison said...: the judge must be a bama fan; 4:55 PM
Jet said...: Harrison ... Almost all of them are.; 4:56 PM
Unknown said...: Well,Bama does have the law school.

Whatever the reason though, she hasn't presented any evidence that what she said is true. She's trying to avoid going to prison and repaying a quarter of a million dollars.; 5:05 PM
Monica said...: I thought they were supposed to prove she's guilty?; 5:07 PM
Unknown said...: She admitted guilt. She apparently said this at her sentencing.

Even if it's true, Bama just needs to disassociate from the people involved.; 5:18 PM
Monica said...: yes, it was her sentencing

my mistake; 5:27 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I'm really bummin' about Peavy getting traded to the White Sox for scratch. Booooo.; 5:39 PM
Unknown said...: It's quiet tonight, too quiet...; 6:07 PM
Jet said...: Mrs. Jet makin' salmon croquettes and homemade mac and cheese!

Woo Hoo!; 6:09 PM
Unknown said...: Salmon croquettes killed the thread.; 6:57 PM
Jet said...: The salmon croquettes, mac and cheese and fresh cantaloupe ... were splendid.; 7:00 PM
Jet said...: From EverydayshouldbeSaturday.com ... this is their intro to a link to Goldberg's blog post regarding Auburn QB situation ...

"Subtraction by addition. Auburn has six actual throwing, moving, and breathing quarterbacks in camp, including Neil Caudle, who by his own estimates has thrown 4,000 passes since the summer started. The old saying is that if you have two quarterbacks, then you don’t have one, and if you have three, then you don’t have a half of a quarterback, and if you have six, you’ll need advanced math beyond our powers with Greek letters and (stuff) in it."; 7:06 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Jet. We are likely to have two or three less qb's as soon as one is named starter. What is the rule if to start with you only had several 1/2 qb's.; 7:12 PM
Spongeworthy said...: And secondly, I vowed as a child that if I ever got married and had children, I would never, ever, in a million years, make them eat Salmon croquettes; 7:15 PM
Unknown said...: My prediction for QB, which is worthless because I've never seen any of them.

Unless Kodi has fixed his mechanics, he'll be relegated to being a situational player. The QB race will quickly come down to Todd and Caudle. Todd will have the advantage because of his starts last year.

I predict Todd will be the starter and Caudle will move to slot. He and Fannin will share duties in the wildcat. Rollison will assume an understudy role and may start later in the season if Todd is injured or his arm gives out.; 7:18 PM
Spongeworthy said...: we agree on one thing. Kodi's mechanics are horrible. It's what is keeping him off the field. Todd may very well win the job. I hear the coaches aren't enthralled with either Kodi or Neil. Maybe the summer helped both of them and they will suprise us.; 7:25 PM
digger4au said...: ZAP they are all gone!!!!

Digger the magician

made them all disappear

I will bring you all back when the cock crows three times on Sand Mountain; 7:58 PM
j-z said...: You know...crazy as NoVa's theory is...I like it.; 8:03 PM
BigEZ said...: I am happy about Peavy, but then, I am a Chisox fan. Before you ask, I collected baseball cards liked Frank Thomas and have had a Sox jersey since eigth grade and so on...maybe he can give us a boost. The bullpen has been shotty lately though.; 8:05 PM
Aeronaut said...: Good morning folks.

Happy Friday / Saturday / Weekend ya'll.

Have a good'n.; 8:16 PM
Monica said...: Seastrunk 7/31 article; 8:19 PM
BigEZ said...: Hey Mon. Shall I call you MGD. Mon Goddess Diesel. It is written.; 8:23 PM
Unknown said...: So Lache wants a family and a home. Hmmm...; 8:27 PM
Monica said...: Hey there EZ. I like your good ole original Mon Diesel, but whatever makes you happy is fine with me.; 8:28 PM
Monica said...: I put the wrong date on that link title. The article is dated 7/30 not 7/31. My apologies.; 8:29 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Come on down to the plains Lache. We'll treat you real kindly. We're like peas and carrots, Lache and the Tigas..; 8:44 PM
Monica said...: I wonder who is more likely to give Lache a warm, fuzzy family feeling? Les Miles & Co. or Chiz & Co.; 8:46 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Just lookin at "the hat" might scare me off. If no money is involved, I like our chances.; 8:51 PM
BigEZ said...: Okey dokey. It is unwritten:^); 8:52 PM
BigEZ said...: Lache, we'll "keep it down home cuz'" if you will.; 8:53 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Mon, we had us a few burglaries here in hoover. Seems a few kids were finding out who was on vacation by looking on facebook, then breaking in the homes. Nice suggestion for facebook users. dont discuss your vacations....; 8:56 PM
Monica said...: hmmm Jeff @ auburnsports.com say Trovon Reed is supposed to show up on campus tomorrow morning and leave tomorrow afternoon. That would be his 3rd visit. I believe he is Lache's buddy. Trovon wanted Lache to go to LSU with him and Lache wanted Trovon to go to Auburn.; 8:56 PM
Monica said...: Sponge - When I tell that to Greg he will enjoy a big "told you so" moment. He's been saying what a bad idea it is to advertise your travel plans via FB, Twitter, etc.; 8:57 PM
Spongeworthy said...: We got room for ya Reed. You and SeaBaby can room together. Chiz won't even make you run extra sprints after practice. Mon and I will see to that.; 8:59 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Mon, the older I get, the less "I told you so's" I dish out. Seems like they always come home to roost later. Nothing like a few years to make you a little more humble. Nothing like raising a pack of chillun to make you even more humble (and a little nuts); 9:01 PM
Anonymous said...: Apparently, I used wifey's email address during the initial Auburn Undercover free offering period. She just now told me that she gets "news" from them from time to time.

She innocently asked me why the significance of Lache Sistrunk taking his 3rd unofficial visit to AU this weekend. I've been out of contact today...is this correct?; 9:01 PM
Monica said...: Anything for the team! Wow, wouldn't that be awesome?; 9:02 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Hoop. I have not heard that. Don't mean it's not true. I am hearing that Satan is probably going to get him a little CJ Mosely. Just hope he can't talk Owens into passing over to the dark side.; 9:04 PM
Monica said...: I haven't read that anywhere, Hoopie.

Sponge - How many chilluns do yo have?; 9:06 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Three chilluns. One senior chick, two boys. Senior going to AU in 2010 unless something changes. Then I get to have one in college for the next 12 years. I'll be eating a lot of spam and pork n beans soon.; 9:08 PM
Monica said...: HA Wow! Congrats and good luck! Don't forget Ramen noodles.; 9:10 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Went condo hunting in AU last week. Anyone planning on buying a condo soon. Better have plenty of cash to lay down on the front end. The era of cheap money, its a gone.; 9:10 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Mon, got me a pantry full of those. On the bright side, I should weigh less in a year than I have in some time.; 9:12 PM
Anonymous said...: I don't subscribe to AUC. The free--teaser article mentions that a top recruit will be in AU this weekend for his 3rd visit. Is anyone a subscriber?; 9:12 PM
Spongeworthy said...: I subscribe to the Goddess info site. Don't you know hoop, if Mon don't know, Marshall don't know either.. LOL; 9:14 PM
BigEZ said...: Trevon Reed I believe.; 9:14 PM
BigEZ said...: Trovon. Whatever.; 9:15 PM
Monica said...: Hoopie - Read up where I posted something about Trovon. Maybe that's who they mean. I only know what I read on auburnsports.com.

Well, that and Gus tells me.

A JOKE!; 9:16 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Mon, my 9th grader is girl crazy. He's likin a little blue eyed blondie. Although, I can't tell what likin means anymore. Boys are always telling my girl that they should "hang out" together. Are the boys now such wimps they can't stand the thought of getting turned down for a date, so they just want to "hang out". Or is that a Hoover thing?; 9:19 PM
Monica said...: I'm way too old and out of touch to know what hang out REALLY means. However, I know enough from kids around me to know I'd sure as heck be finding out what it meant to my kids. lol; 9:21 PM
BigEZ said...: If a girl will "hang out", she's probably interested. I think date is a scary word for most guys. If you ask her to hang out and you never do, it is mild rejection. If you ask her on a "date" and never does or she straight turns you down it hits the ego a little harder I believe.; 9:23 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Well, you can bet if Hang Out means anything like what I wanted to do back in the day, I'm on top of that....Some things don't change. Wifey says..that boy is so sweet....daddy says..you lay a hand on my girl, game on cowboy..; 9:23 PM
Monica said...: LOL I'm SO happy I don't have kids.; 9:25 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Big, you are dead on. When the girls started calling the guys, they lost the upper hand. That was our first rule. "you don't call the guys. If they are interested, they'll call..
Also, if they hang out, it usually means meet out. Means they don't have to come to the door and meet DAD.; 9:26 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Mon. No matter the problems, I wouldn't give mine up for nothin. I'm hoping one of them likes me enough to take care of me in old age...; 9:28 PM
Anonymous said...: Sponge...my daughter is 21 and other than proms or formals, has never been on a "date". "Hanging" is a broad term that can involve anywhere from 2 to 20 kids and any number of activities. Most all activities involve groups and rarely the traditional boy/girl on a date.

gotta hit the sack

Peace...out; 9:29 PM
Monica said...: I bet you're a great dad, Sponge.; 9:29 PM
Jet said...: At the Hangar ...

Stewardess and Appendage "hang out" here ... in my Auburn room ... I suggest they should go see a movie or something ... Stewardess says he spend so much on gas (he lives elsewhere in the River Region) that she doesn't want him to spend extra money on her. Her thoughtfulness is touching, but an inconvenience to the man of the house.; 9:32 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Well Hoop. You are right. I like knowing they are with one person. That way, I know who the target is....LOL

Thanks Mon. I guess I won't really know til they are grown and gone.; 9:34 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Jet, wifey is the stewardess in my house. Gives me a nice break every week or so. Bought my girl a horse, so now she spends more time with that horse than with the guys. I'm thinkin, wise move daddy. too bad she can't take that horse to the plains. I could cut costs. are there any hitches on campus.; 9:37 PM
Jet said...: My kids have been different in this area ... Appendage is Stewardess's first boyfriend ... outside of one horrible character flaw, he's been a perfect gentleman, but we're working on him.

ElTurbo has been dating Special K for almost 4 years, and he's leaving for his freshman year at AU in 13 days.

Having said that, both of my kids do a lot of group "hanging out" at people's houses. We take our share in the rotation -- let them play video games, watch movies and I spring for pizza. It's been a good investment.; 9:41 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Pizza. Cheaper than a horse.; 9:43 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Jet. I see where Obama had that beer summit the other day. Has Riley ever offered Jet to discuss differences over a beer......; 9:45 PM
Jet said...: The gov is a teetotaler.; 9:46 PM
Jet said...: ... but I'd be delighted to share a cup of coffee or a diet Dr Pepper if he were so inclined.; 9:49 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Well then. Sneak him some wine and maybe we can convince him to support the lottery. I never cared before, but now that I'm putting pen to paper on college costs, I want that lotto.; 9:50 PM
Jet said...: Sponge ...

I just paid my first bill to Auburn today - not counting Camp War Eagle fees.; 9:51 PM
Monica said...: Jet - Greg and I are making a short roadtrip tomorrow for the express purpose of trying a new BBQ rib joint in Charleston. I accidentally ran across it a month or so ago. It's SUCH a dive looking place and gave me the nosegasm. Anyway, it made me think of you.; 9:52 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Nice Jet. Hope you aren't going to be HUNGRY til next payday. I'm checkin to see if Jimmy Hale Mission has a bed.; 9:53 PM
Jet said...: I expect a full report ... 300-500 words, typed, double spaced, MLA citations.; 9:53 PM
Monica said...: Yes Sir.; 9:54 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Nosegasm. I blew sweet tea out of my nose when I read that. Why haven't I seen that before. crackup.; 9:54 PM
Jet said...: Thankfully, ElTurbo got him a scholly, so I just had to pay the "forced meal plan" today. Of course, we'll pay the first rent check when he moves in ... I'll be poor soon enough.; 9:55 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Scholly. Please define that and text that definition to my girl.; 9:56 PM
Monica said...: sorry about the tea nose spray, Sponge

:-); 9:58 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Jet, can you get a scholly for texting prowess. Daughter can text the Gettysburg address, blindfolded, driving.... with four fingers on each hand tied behind her wrist...... in ten seconds or less.; 10:00 PM
Jet said...: As I told ElTurbo, now you got the thing, you better not lose it.

Got to give to him, this apple fell off the tree, caught a taxi to the airport and flew cross country.

I'm proud of the boy ... 3.7 gpa and a 32 on the ACT, including a 35 on the English section ... between his advanced placement courses and his ACT scores, he'll be a sophomore at the end of the first semester.

He didn't view that as a positive development.; 10:00 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Keyboard needed cleaning anyway Mon.; 10:01 PM
wtc said...: What's up guys?
Just got back form a cookout at my sister's. I cooked steaks for everyone and we finished the evening off by grilling peaches and having them over some vanilla ice cream.

I will pay fo rthat Saturday morning as I have scheduled an 11 mile run at 6:00am.; 10:03 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Jet, thats pretty gnarly dude.; 10:05 PM
Spongeworthy said...: Only way I run 11 miles is if someone has a chainsaw after me.; 10:07 PM
Monica said...: Jet are you serious about the sophomore by the end of 1st sem thing? Wow

Hey WTC - I've never in my life heard of a grilled peach. How do you do that exactly?; 10:07 PM
Spongeworthy said...: can I be 401; 10:07 PM
Spongeworthy said...: can I be 401; 10:07 PM
Spongeworthy said...: can i be; 10:08 PM
