Furlough Day Three: Tuesday
I am on a mandated and unpaid furlough as required by the Advertiser's parent company, Gannett. As such, I am not permitted to participate in blog-related activities for one week.
So we have these pre-loaded entries. That's all.
It's up to you to keep the HABOTN fresh until I return on Sunday, Feb. 21.
Have a nice day.
ps: I'll be watching UK-Mississippi State tonight if you're interested in joining me vicariously.

FURLOUGH SUBSTANCE!!!!!
J'aime substançia.
Miller - I'm going to issue an Interference Penalty flag on ehyou and Harrison.
oooohhhh.............
C-A-T-S....CATS, CATS, CATS!!!!!
ooooohhhh.............
My favorite number!
I'll bet Jay will be jacked up for the MSU game tonight. He'll be all fanned out with his Christian Laettner voodoo doll out, pins in its eyes.
Three is a magic number.
dang that JG. what a slacker. dadgum pre-loaded entries are as bad as Lebo's end of game coaching.
LOL, Scottie B!
Laettner will be 60 years old, strolling through Keeneland with a Makers & coke in hand and some 80 year old man will take him out with his cane. dude will ALWAYS be hated in Lexington.
Three may be a magical number, but One is the loneliest number.
and #2 stands for poop
Obamaman is funding two new nuclear plants to be built in Georgia.
Moron falls into Mount Saint Helens volcano.
Life doesn't get much more exciting than this.
So, Ari, do you know the story of why Jay G despises Christian Laettner the way he does?
could it be that final 4 game when he ripped UK's heart out on thet last second shot??
bingo Harrison. JG's got some Kentucky Blue in him even though he may never admit it. i remember he really, really wanted a UK2K tee a few weeks back.
SteveFC...
In the nuclear vein are you talking about two new towers or two new plants????
I believe two new plants, which is what the tweet said. They will be the first in more than 30 years. They are allocating $8.3 Billion for them.
Just checked. It is two new reactors, not plants.
That's Plant Vogtle in Burke Co (Waynesboro) where I live. That really has been in the works for awhile round here. Been getting ready for it.
Boom town around here in the 70's when the two original got going. It has been good for us and our taxes!
By the way I have done some work at some of the most secure areas of Plant Vogtle. It is the most secure place I have ever been in.
They do a great job. You have to really go through it to get in.....makes me very happy that it is that way.
That is the facility they are talking about expanding, although apparently there are more to come. Obamaman wants to get around 6 more nuclear reactors up and running. It is nice to see us finally wising up about nuclear power.
Happy Mardi Gras, Hotties!
I had gumbo for lunch for Mardi Gras and I'm going to have pancakes for supper to celebrate Shrove Tuesday. It's fun being multicultural/bi-food-al today.
Sorry that Jay G. is in time-out.
Norm ...
I thought you to be savvier than that. www.ihatenorm.com is a fabrication -- a canard.
I will keep your real name a secret until the bitter end.
MJT, just wanted to issue a belated thank you for the explanation regarding the stuffed animals. It all makes sense now.
Jet, I knew it wasn't real, I just wanted to see what kind of answer I would get if I asked you how many the hists the website got every day.
I know someone in this neighborhood has advocated Scott Sutton as a good coach to investigate should my doppelganger fire Lebo.
I hope that Scott's apple has bounded far away from the family tree. We know about Dad's issues. Brother Sean, the ex-Okie State coach, is facing four felony charges for attempting to illegally get his hands on some prescription painkillers.
Andy Staples takes a look at the top 10 classes from 2007 and re-ranks them ... AU was ranked 7th at the time ... nowhere to be seen today.
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/andy_staples/02/15/2007-classes/index.html?eref=sihp
Jet - I too knew it wasn't real but that still doesn't mean I'm not plotting your ultimate downfall. You have to pay for Santino.
ehyou = HABOTN Ziemba
Jet, I've actually wondered about Scott Sutton as well. He does seem to fit the Jacobs mold as far as his strong faith. And definitely seems to be solid coach.
I was unaware of brother Sean's issues--that's not good. And yes, papa sure had his issues. So, who knows.
If you had to wager a guess, do you think Lebo returns?
Don Norm,
I believe you have me confused with J-Z.
jet...
Is that a frequent occurrence? If so, I'd be concerned.
Are all the Hotties just really busy or just have nothing to say? It sure has been slow this week.
That 2007 class had a crap load of attrition, although our solid offensive line came from it, if I recall correctly. Kodi didn't exactly turn out to be what he was hyped up to be either. Eltoro took a while to show up, although it is nice to see he is actually playing.
This is particularly for E-Bro, Sean, JGT, and the other resident soccer fans, but the rest of you might find it interesting (it's also somewhat about football):

Has anyone seen my underwear? It's around here somewhere.
Under where?
Techy peeps.... What is the eat camcorder type device to use to stream live content via Ustream?? A friend of mine wants to live stream her wedding.
D Miller, it requires a vortex modulation streamlined with a flux capacitor.
When I got married, I had a live stream.
Under there.
Michael, you forgot about the Dilithium Chrystals. You simply cannot do it without them.
US 3 ...Swiss 1 in 3rd period of Olympic Hockey.
USA!
USA!
USA!
You also need a bulge protector
i'm sniffing paint
Then you've come to the right place, THT, because it's PUPPET HOUR!!! AAAHHHHH!!!!
who has like 10 boxes of girl scout cookies at home? cause i do
I had 3 boxes Sunday. 0 today.
This was obviously the wrong time of day to ask a serious question.
Samoas are so freggin delightful. Do they really come from Samoa?
those are my favorites. they are way too small to come from Somoa
That is very insensitive, Harrison. I am sure Samoa has a lot of midgets who would love to make small cookies.
well it's misleading at worst
Not as misleading as the fact that they are even "girl scout" cookies to begin with. I have a daughter who is of scout age. She can't properly do the easy bake oven without some assistance. You are telling me that Samoan girl scouts made these gourmet cookies? Yeah right.
Thanks everyone for the congratulatory sayings!
This is going to be the hardest decision ever
i'm sure they are made by cookie sweat shops somewhere in the far east. They're probably not even girl scouts. maybe not even girls
Maybe not even people. Maybe puppet scouts! Ah crap!
And congrats, jhag. Just remember: whatever you choose, you will be spending the rest of your life wondering what would have happened if you picked the other school. You will always wonder if you made the completely wrong choice.
Good luck!
Hey jhag, how did it go against that 5 star seven footer the other night?
Especially when the other "school" didn't gain 50 pounds.
I don't think Harrison's talking about college choices anymore.
What are jhag's choices?
Auburn or Kabul University, I believe.
jhag, if you choose Auburn, be sure you have a press conference where you say "I have decided to attend the University of Auburn."
Kabul U. was #4 in Muslim Playboy's top party schools
jhag, it's really not a hard decision. If you have ever been to Auburn and if they offer your major then the choice is easy.
Has anyone else ever watched the Ghost Whisperer just to see Jennifer Love Hewitt?
Anyone else see where Brent Calloway visited today? If you don't know him, he is a commitment to the walmartians. I thought you couldn't take visits if you were committed to $atan. Recruits are really starting to see through those clowns. Calloway says that Auburn made big move. The only thing I like better than getting a big time commitment is stealing a big time commitment from the turds.
So one of UAt's early commitment from a RB from Russelville, AL for 2011, took a visit to AU today. Says just because he is committed to UAt doesn't mean he isn't going to take his visits and look around. If he decommitts will the other side they never really wanted him anyway.
CHB-sorry for running over your post. I just happened to read about him today.
I was told today that AU will take only 1 RB in 2011. If he is the only one, I think AU has a good shot as UAt is looking for him t play LB. Like they need more of those.
The puppet hour went by without much string pulling. The puppets just seem to dangle there.
no problem WTC, what about that guy from Decatur?
Are you thinking of the kid form Demopolis? DeMarcus James is his name (I think)
Or is it Ryan Watson from Decatur , AL?
He is listed as an athlete.
I thought you hotties would be interested in this.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2452083/posts
CHB-AU is very interested in those guys, but I think they will fall into the athlete-receiver category. AU would like to sign 1 stud RB and then fill DL, OL, DB, LB with the majority of this class.
Florida State, Auburn, Ole Miss and yes it is a hard decision being an out of state student
jhag - that's something you should decide with your folks. The Hotties can give you great advice but you shouldn't pay much attention to it.
wtc -
any idea why AU hasn't offered the 5* RB from Carver H.S. in Columbus? Seems like he has offers from everyone else already.
Scout actually has a "DS" position category for prospects. The only one listed has interest in AU and UA-T, amongst others, but no offers yet. We better get off our butts and get this guy committed before Shorty gets him.
I watched the the Demopolis RB in the state championship game ... he's a bowling ball in the Rudi Johnson mode.
I was impressed.
ever since Dax left we've had precariously thin DSD (deep snapper depth)
jhag!!!!!
Congrats to you on having three universities to choose from.
I too had the same decision many, many years ago. After many discussions with my parents there were tons of things I had to weigh and I did have to sacrifice much by going out of state.
I made the right decision for me. If I had to do it all over again knowing what I sacrificed, my decision would still be the same. I would do it again anyway.
I know it was a long time ago but stepping on Auburn's campus with no means of transportation not knowing one soul to my name was a scary situation for a girl from a tiny high school in east Georgia.
But hey.... I fell in love with the my first "WAR EAGLE!" and been that way ever since!!!
If I had to do it over again, I'd probably go to a smaller school, with smaller classes and more communication between the professors, administration and students. Auburn is a great place to go to school, but if you aren't ready to take college seriously, it's very easy go through four years as just another student. At a smaller school, there's more accountability, because your success or failure is more apparent.
I enjoyed being just another student, the more anonymous the better.
but what I'll enjoy even more is...
BEASLEY!!!
...that, and a big bowl of ice cream with Hershey's syrup.
I finished off a carton last night, so I have to go all the way to the basement freezer to get another carton. Just think of all those calories I'll burn retrieving the ice cream!
THT ..It ain't fair.
I eat one desert, a few glasses of red wine and do +/-4 times on the elliptical machine per week and my Triglycerides are 370(supposed to be 150).
You eat BarBQ and Ice Cream with reckless abandon and suffer no ill effects.
The new residence halls look BA at Auburn The Village
missinit, I bought my wife a shirt one time that said " You had me at War Eagle". Its kind of cheesy but very true.
Please, please eat a bowl for me THT...please!!!
I have to have an iodine ablation to finish off this thyroid surgery I had in December, so for two weeks a ton of things have been forbidden.
.....ice cream and chocolate being two of my favs.
Lord have mercy it is tough!!!!
And I still haven't found my voice!!!
WTC,
You hit on both guys I was thinking of. I agree we only need 1 RB next year. We need to stock pile the DL and Ol and I think we need some more DB's.
CH=B
Tis true, I agree 100% and..... speaking of cheese can't have it either.
But I can yell "War Eagle" all I want!!!!!!!
Hoopie - I'll probably just kill over one day with no warning.
Missinit - Molly dog ate a bowl for you.
jhag - I'm so sorry you won't have a chance to experience the high life that was Mag(nolia) Dorm at Auburn.
Tell Molly dog to lick that bowl clean.
Mag Dorm, that place was a real.....well that's just say it was a place and leave it at that....and that was in the 70's
Anyone watching this UK MSU game?
Jhag ... I am.
State giving a good fight ... but hard to imagine they can win with Vanardo on the sideline with four fouls.
Ari Gold or Criminal Type probably is
jhag - I am not... too depressed to watch any more after Wake Forest choked away the VTech game tonight.
missint - not even a molecule of ice cream left behind. Oh, and Molly licked her bowl, too.
and best in show @ the wmkc dog show is....?
^i
I'm not.
it insane to hear how intense the dog show commentators are!
GT 53
UNC 27
wow
Man, HABOTN without Jay G. is like nachos without cheese. Now, how the heck am I suppose to do nachos without cheese?
AU extended an offer to the "little" brother of one of $pUAT's 2010 signees today. Cyrus Koundjio...
THT, from what I have seen AU is heavily recruiting Crowell (the RB from Carver). They are also recruiting the LB at Russelville (Calloway's teammate) that transferred from PA.
Now here is some interesting news.
"Calif. jury finds N. Carolina woman guilty of murdering a fortuneteller and her daughter after getting reading that angered her"
Somehow, it looks like the fortuneteller would have seen it coming.
Nachos without cheese are just chips.
State without Vanardo is just Auburn.
I take that back. State may very well win this game ... that's because Cal can recruit talent, but he can't harness it.
scottish terrier wins best in show.
A flute without holes, is not a flute. A donut without a hole, is a Danish.
Norm is going night putting.
A donut sounds good, but I hate wearing them on my bootie, so guess I'll pass.
I'm not going night putting. I remember what happened to Mitch Cumstein.
Don't understand the donut bootie. Don't want to understand the donut bootie.
Norm, did you go night putting with F.O.'s daughter?
Varnado is on the bench. Why is UK jacking 3s?
I was absolutely not on F.O.'s "favorite's list" and I don't recall whether he had a daughter or not but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been allowed near her. Silly Yugo driving butthead he was.
SteveFC,
I'll splain - eating sweets tends to make me gain weight, I gain it in my b-tt, but Jay doesn't like us to use that word - hence bootie. Got it?
I really would like a donut.
Wait, not a Yugo but not much better. I just remembered, it was a Renault Le Car.
Norm ...
I believe it was a Renault "Le Car."
Are Miss State's uniforms dark green or do they just look that way on my TV?
And now, because my grandfather would like it, I'll say...
Good night, sleep tight and pleasant dreams to you
Here's a wish and a prayer that every dream comes true
And now 'til we meet again
Adios, au revoir, auf wiedersehen
Good Night!
I know Jay really wants KY to win, but I really do not like Calipari. That makes it hard to pull for them.
Sweet dreams, Norm.
yep, I'm too old to still be up. Sweet dreams, Hotties!
Thankya, thankya.
Our wunnerful Irish tenor Norm will sing "Danny Boy," accompanied by Myron Floren on the accordian.
Sweet dreams to you, too, THT.
No pan flute?
70-70 in OT~
JOHN WALL
Osby from MSU just lost them that game
Jhag ... you are right.
MS State wore black uniforms tonight
Just like in football when bama stomped them
SteveFC just caught up, and it didn't involve hemorrhoids. That was a close call.
War Eagle im feeling 60% Au right now baby
Scotto Chocco...Thanks for the link earlier to the cfn article about soccer.
Of course, as a United fan, I have to point out that the guy answering the questions apparently doesn't have all his facts straight. He said Liverpool is the holder of the most English titles.
Correction: they WERE...until last year when United pulled even with the Scousers (Liverpool).
Okay, everybody (outside of SC, Sean, Eddie, and JGT) can now go back to not caring about soccer.
Good morning, Hotties!
jhag, there sure is a whole lot of advice going on around here, but I have to agree with Tar Heel. While CH=B is correct to some degree, there are a lot of other things to think about as well. You should do your research on all three schools and then sit down and weigh out the options with your parents.
Is it Friday yet???
Good morning, Hotties!
Luv - re: is it Friday? not quite. That sure would be awesome if it was.
Good morning all. Have a great day.
I sure miss Jay.
Mornin' folks.
Good morning, it's a happy day!
Good morning, it's a happy day!
Good morning, it's a happy, happy, happy, happy day!
I used to wake my children with that little song. Be glad you just read it and didn't hear me sing it :)
Jhag ...
Because we live vicariously through you ... (if you don't know what vicariously means, then FSU is definitely the choice) ... I offer you this logic.
You have three schools: two out of state and one in-state. FSU, because of its in-state status and the purported inducement of a vehicle, is an automatic finalist.
So to further ease your decision, you need to eliminate one of the out-of-state schools. Perhaps your attraction to Ole Miss can be explained by the fact that in 35 years you will be Houston Nutt. Giggity.
Auburn is the one in your heart. Ole Miss is the 10 at 2 and the 2 at 10 the next a.m. Just sayin'.
So choose between AU and FSU. God bless you.
Nice analysis Jet.
Ole Miss is the 10 at 2 and the 2 at 10 the next a.m.
Call me an idiot, but wth does that mean??
At 2:00 am, you take home a "10".
At 10:00 am, you wake up with a "2".
Beer-goggles
Giggity
Oh! Thanks, ehyou!
I, of course, have heard of beer goggles, but I've never heard that phrase.
Can't believe y'all are talking about beer this early in the morning!
I ain't got good sense.
Scotch?
Ahoy polloi! Where did you come from, a scotch ad?
Spalding get your foot off the boat!
Doody!!
I'm jonesing bad. I need an article fix.
mornin' hotties. fun game to watch last nite. hard to believe MSU held their own with Vernado on the bench most of the time. go cats!
in case yall care, James Brooks & Lionel James are doing an autograph signing next month if yall are interested in such things. you can mail your stuff in & they'll get it signed for you for a fee:
http://www.americaniconautographs.com/html/events.html
Off to conquer the world - or at least my "to do" list. Have fun, hotties!
He's a Cinderella story ...he's 250 yds from the pin and he's got a ...9 iron. ..(swings) ...it's ..in the hole.
I am Ari Gold and I approve Jet's message.
Before you prop jet up too much...you do realize that norm is taking him down, right?
It's gonna happen. I'm very patient. He'll never see it coming even though I've made no secret about it.
The plot thickens
Can Norm take Jet down
Can Jet sustain and remain king
Stay tuned
Squeeeeeeek BANG!
The door of life closes until another episode next on satuesday.
Daniel Moore's latest classic Cody Feeds.
I find Mr. Hall highly entertaining.
Sup you hot people?
