First post: Thursday of Week One

Hey everyone. I'm trying to calm down after a Facebook barrage. People everywhere seem to be channeling their inner Joe McCarthy these days and it irritates me. I find that using the "hide" button helps me retain composure.

This isn't a political blog, though, so enough of that.

I will create a separate thread for this, but be aware that it's CAMPFIRE DAY. We'll be holding two sessions -- one at 3 p.m. CDT and one five hours later. Please stand and sing.

Thanks for making this the hottest enclave on the entire World Wide Webz.

Here's the Auburn situation at this moment:

TODAY'S SCHEDULE
Auburn will practice this afternoon, though I will not be there. Chizik isn't available. Players aren't available. Assistants aren't available. So that's that.

We WILL be holding a pair of campfires today. You read that correctly. Schedules are messy this time of year, so I'm hoping everyone who wants to participate can do so during AT LEAST one of our sessions. You're welcome to attend both.

Remember that this is not one of those stale q-and-a deals you may have seen in 1996. We do it LIVE here at the HABOTN. It's true interaction. I heart HOTTIE interaction.

Be there or be rectangular.®

Here's what the next few days look like:

Thu., Sept. 3, 4:30 p.m. (no media availability)
Fri., Sept. 4, OFF
Sat., Sept. 5, vs. Louisiana Tech, 6 p.m. CDT
Sun., Sept. 6, 6 p.m.
Mon., Sept. 7, OFF
Tue., Sept. 8, 4:30 p.m. (Chizik presser at 11:30 a.m. CDT)
Wed., Sept. 9, 4:30 p.m. (Wifey's birthday; Beatles Rock Band is released)

Also, please pick up the Advertiser's print edition if you live around here! Our fine Auburn coverage is only one element of our award-winning product.

Going for 1000 is best done on Gameday. You'll have your game thread where you'll get lots of posts, of course. But then Jay has to sit in traffic for a long time and can't add any new threads.

The chorus director at my church always says, just before mass, "Please stand ... and sing."

I love it for some reason.

9:40 AM  
Blogger Scott M. Brannan said...

my dad leg singing (small church) when i was little. everybody would stop after each verse and he would tell them which to sing next.

"On the first."

"On the fourth."

Not that I have ever tried to purposely annoy Jay by encouraging high comment counts.

And not that that is how I got promoted to Feeling the Heat for the first time.

I wish my dad could do leg singing. Sounds awesome.

Cudos to the chorus director. I am a "stand and sing kind" of person.

"Nyet" to Face Book barrages!

War Eagle, Tigers!

Blogger Scott M. Brannan said...

led, not leg. leg singing would be pretty ausome, though.

9:48 AM  
Blogger michael said...

What about a facebook barge? That's a boat I can get on.

9:48 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

nyet to fb, barrages or otherwise

come on Hotties, let's get this thread to 1000 posts!!!

I can make fart noises with the back of my knee using my hand. I consider that leg singing. If a music minister did that at a church, it would become the most popular church in the world.

9:50 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

i can only do "silent killers" with the back of my knee using my hand.

9:51 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

Scottie B - perhaps he can explain why the third stanza was so often left out of the singing? Please?

9:52 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

or maybe the two events are unrelated.

Blogger Unknown said...

Excellent article, Jay. I like how Chiz is showing players video of 2004 to show the team attitude more than anything else.

As for two-a-day campfires, if I had knew it was coming I would have worked out more in preparation.

I prefer to not believe in politics. It is much more productive than not believing in Santa Claus.
