Getting Our Bearings

Hey everyone. So as you have surmised, I was asked (politely) to make Wednesday my last day of work at the Advertiser. Nobody should be upset with the Advertiser; they are keeping to their word and sending me on my way with what they agreed to give me. No hard feelings.

I am hopeful that Brian Woodham, who recently left a part-time gig with ITAT to take a full-time job as a copy editor at the Advertiser, will be given an opportunity to take my old job. Brian would be a great addition. I'll let you know if I hear anything about that.

As I explained on Facebook, we will have a board at AuburnSports.com with a stricter standard when it comes to cussing and any off-putting shenanigans. Personally, I'm good with the Bunker and have read it for a long time. They get a little upset when things don't go well, which is understandable, but I feel like that board's reputation for savage commentary far exceeds reality.

With that said, we will have a HABOTN-esque board over there for people whose tolerance for cussing is at zero. Just want to make that clear.

I'll be starting at AuburnSports.com on Monday.

Take care, errybody. Thanks as always for your support!

"covered" is a bit over the top, but yes, there was occasionally rooster poop. I used that rooster poop to power my minibike.

3:05 PM  
Blogger michael said...

Well how in the world did you do that?

10:54 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

The hardest part was finding enough dung beetles to roll the poop into hard little balls. After chipping off small bits to give the beetles as a reward for their hard work, I threw the pellets into a methane digester and voila! my minibike was at full speed.

Blogger michael said...

you are the macgyver of dung beetles.

10:13 PM

Something about this minibike story doesn't smell quite right. I suspect THT was not as generous to the dung beetles as he claims.

11:54 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

The best way to keep good dung beetles is to reward them appropriately. It's just good business sense. But you're right about the smell.

wow. i've been walking around all day with my pants unzipped. good thing i work from home.

8:53 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

walking around until 8:53 a.m. hardly qualifies as "all day"

I think what Norm meant to say was,

"I work from home, it's almost 9 o'clock, I guess I should get out of bed and get dressed and not forget to zip my pants."

His work day is from 8:00-9:00 am, so it was pretty much "all day" in that respect.

I'm not buying Norm's story. I've never seen a pair of sweat pants with a zipper.

Blogger michael said...

I can find you a pair of sweatpants with a zipper. there are ways, dude.

10:55 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

straight out of a Eurasian sweat shop, complete with sweat from the sweater's brow on the sweatpants. I'm getting sweaty just thinking about it. Of course, the zippers are at the bottom of the sweatpant legs, so I'm not sure why Norm's all bent out of shape about it. Take a chill pill, Norm. You know, the same kind Michael gives his sweatshop workers to keep them from autocombusting.

5:23 PM  
Blogger bubbs said...

I used to own a sweatshop. Things did alright until they started taxing bottles using anything other than the royal units of measurement (we were in Eurasia). The problem was that the units constantly changed, but they fine you if you're not in compliance ... no matter what you did or didn't do, you were never in compliance.

Before that, though, things sold like hot cakes. Had a bunch of little people eating onions and garlic then going into the sauna. They'd be in there for hours just filling up the troughs with sweat. Most people bought it to add to the Eurasian national dish. On holidays we really cleaned up.

Good times.

There are still a lot of ostriches roaming Eurasia that need jobs. Too bad birds don't sweat. I suppose that's good news for bubbs's little people.

2:39 PM  
Blogger michael said...

bubbs, quit whining about the units of measurement changing. Do you know how hard it is to standardize things? Especially when you put the Man with the Purple Beard in charge, and he decided all measurements should be a function of the moon phase, loccation of the constellation Orion, and Miley Cyrus's hair length. Yes it's complicated, but their must be standards or WE ARE NOTHING BUT SAVAGES! (well, as I've stated before, it's really ballroom dancing that separates us from the savages, but I am speaking hyperbolically for effect here)

36 days until kickoff

Today's HABOTN Kickoff Kountdown is dedicated to the memory of Greg Pratt.
A native of Albany, GA, Greg was a walk-on transfer from Tennessee State(?); he was slated to be our starting fullback in 1983. Tragically, he died at age 20 on August 20, 1983, after running a series of 440 yd sprints. Shortly before losing consciousness, he told a teammate to tell his mother that he was going to be alright; he was quoting the Lord's Prayer and Psalm 23.

War Eagle, Angel Greg!

Mr. Childress was a 2-time All-SEC fullback in '54 and '55. He was ALL-AMERICAN in 1955 and 7th overall pick in the 1st round of the 1956 NFL draft. He spent his entire 10 year NFL career with the Chicago/St. Louis Cardinals. His best college game was in 1954 when he had 164 yds rushing in leading Auburn to an upset win over 5th ranked Miami. Mr. Childress passed away at age 53 after a valiant fight against cancer.

HAPPY WALTER GILBERT DAY!!!

T-minus 33 days til kickoff.

Today's choice was just as easy as yesterday's. Walter Gilbert is still Auburn's only 3-time ALL-AMERICAN. Shug Jordan referred to the Fairfield, AL, native as "possibly the greatest linebacker-center in the history of Southern football." Two days after graduating from Auburn in 1937, Mr. Gilbert went to work for Texaco. By the time he retired in 1977, Mr. Gilbert was Vice-President in charge of international operations, and head of Texaco's European operations. He took a break from his Texaco job to serve in the Army during World War II, achieving the rank of Major in field artillery. Mr. Gilbert was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1956. In 1981, Auburn University created the Walter Gilbert Award. The award is presented each year to a former Auburn athlete who has demonstrated excellence in their chosen field for 20 or more years. A list of former recipients of the Walter Gilbert Award can be found at this web site

As an example of his footbal prowess, the following quote was lifted from the College Football Hall of Fame web site:
During the 1936 season, Gilbert played the entire game in six consecutive contests. After the Louisiana State game, Sports Editor Bill Blake wrote, "LSU put two men on Gilbert for 60 minutes and he took a terrific pounding, but he never stopped charging through to nail the ball-carrier. Our personal statistics had Gilbert with half the tackles as well as intercepting two enemy passes. There is none who can equal the Auburn center."

So, uhm, yeah.

Norm, be there or be rectangular as someone used to say.

Blogger Cincytiger said...

Is this place still sane? Cause AUFC is getting their panties all in a wad!

10:48 AM  
Blogger bubbs said...

I blaming art for the FC melt downs. It stands to reason.

4:56 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

I refuse to be sane.

Pinocchio or Maurice Clarett. Who's the better motivational speaker?

9:16 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

You know what's insane? I had to actually stop and think how many days it is until kickoff. I know it ain't many. Better yet, only 4 work days between now and kickoff.

10:28 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

Cincy said "panties", HAHAHAHAHAHA!

10:59 AM  
Blogger bubbs said...

I still haven't figured out how I'm gonna watch games ... I probably need to start working on a plan.

12:40 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

Guess what time it is, boys and girls?

Is Jeremy Johnson offering any other guarantees beyond that Marshall wins the Heisman?

11:09 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

I think Braxton Miller winning the Heisman this year is equally probable.

11:32 AM  
Blogger bubbs said...

Why do you hate Auburn so much, THT?

12:59 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

I only hate ua-t. A lot. A whole lot. MrsTHT and LB are the only two people I know who can generate more hate for ua-t than I can.

11:15 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

Guess what?! We're in SINGLE DIGIT MODE!

11:15 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

y'all missed a spectacular preseason campfire

9:47 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

What do Auburn, Sam Houston State, Tyler Jr College, and aTm-Commerce have in common?

aTm-Commerce doesn't have any games on their schedule east of the Republic of Texas. I smell a long road trip in Eddie's future.

Last chance... ALL ABOARD!!!

1:54 PM

Tell Mrs. THT thank you, thank you! I went to this gift shop to find her a little happy for her birthday and I found me the PERFECT birthday present!! Can't wait to open it on Saturday and hang it in the condo! So glad she is having a birthday! :)

Blogger Norm said...

Hey come on, come on take a ride.

11:57 AM  
Blogger bubbs said...

We need a ruling, THT. Can BBQ have cheese on/in it and still be considered BBQ?

4:11 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

well, bubbs, I suppose it's still barbecue underneath, but the perpetrator should spend the rest of their life here

9:22 AM  
Blogger michael said...

I'm not gonna say who, but someone missed the 37BEASLEY!!! Someone.

10:31 AM  
Blogger michael said...

Just read the wikipedia entry for Bouvet Island.
Interesting.

10:31 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

The combining of BBQ and cheese is a travesty. I like beer. I like ice cream too. But I ain't ever considering combining the two.

10:47 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

So I got this "FitBit" thingamajig the other day. For some reason, my company is big about us being healthy. Interesting how it counts everything and makes me realize that I have some very sloth-like coworkers the way they complain about not being able to rack up activity points.

10:50 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

A Chik-fil-A sandwich purchased on Monday and reheated on Tuesday is just not as good as if it'd been eaten on Monday. Not bad, just an obvious difference.

10:52 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

FIRST!

10:52 AM  
Blogger ArtVanDelay said...

hey, how bout that.

11:04 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

BOOM?

I go play miniature golf and next thing ya know, we're on a new page!

1:10 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

Michael - I became aware I was missing it about halfway through typing my post. I hate backtracking. Plus, I didn't want someone to erroneously deduce that it was a multiplication equation, as in xy=z.

Norm - CFA chicky biscuits are heavenly. They used to have good chickysalad sammiches, but they changed the recipe and messed it up. If it's too late for a chicky biscuit, I prefer BurgerDoodle.

Art -thanks for staying on the sideline for that one.

1:17 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

This cracked me up when I just read it:

Tar Heel Tiger said...
get your tickets now for the Zeke Pike Express! This is a real train ride...none of that Rollison Express nonsense.

All aboard!

6:05 PM

2:21 PM  
Blogger bubbs said...

The next time an Express rolls through - I'm officially walking.

4:18 PM  
Blogger ArtVanDelay said...

I have a lot of experience staying on the sideline.

5:37 PM  
Blogger Norm said...

art's a watcher rather than a doer.

11:03 AM  
Blogger michael said...

but is he a boer?

12:45 AM  
Blogger michael said...

Campfiyah tonight! I'm proud that I've never missed a campfiyah in my whole life.

10:52 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

less than an hour til SEC football!

YIPPEEE!

4:11 PM  
Blogger THT said...

Michael, by the time you get there, I'll probably be sound asleep. Hitting the road at 5 a.m. tomorrow so we can have dinner in Auburn.
In the meantime, there's plenty of wood on the fire.

5:58 PM  
Blogger michael said...

It was so empty. So so empty.

I'll have to hit it earlier next week.

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

We're in the valley, not to be confused with The Valley, one of my most favorite places. Of course, the valley I'm in right now is a whole lot closer to Auburn, so it gets bonus points for that.

8:55 PM  
Blogger ArtVanDelay said...

anyone here like Peppa Pig?

8:15 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

When video games deveoloped a button for every finger and toe to control all sorts of stuff, I went from champion video gamer to retard and quit playing video games. I miss Space Invaders and PacMan.

8:46 AM  
Blogger Norm said...

Space Invaders and Asteroids mixed in with the occasional Missile Command.

8:31 AM  
Blogger michael said...

I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I probably know more about video games than most of the people here.

4:43 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

is that what you call your derriere?

5:59 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

R.I.P. #79, one of my all-time favorite AU players.

4:05 AM Tar Heel Tiger said...
Good afternoon/evening Aero and good morning to all the other HOTTIES

HAPPY DONNIE HUMPHREY DAY!!! The ol' seven-niner was an All-American DT on the great 1983 team.

79 days til KO. WARRRRRRRR EAGLE!!!!

Blogger michael said...

Tonights Campfiyah is gonna be the best EVER!!! We're gonna be partying like it's 2009 up in there!!!

3:47 PM  
Blogger michael said...

all we have are embers

10:45 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

I was in Virginia without internet on campfiyah night. But I do love me some embers.

Is the audio and video on SEC network bad for everyone, or just TWC customers.

12:00 PM  
Blogger Norm said...

I've had no issue with SEC Network. Must just be you Doc.

8:21 AM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

I have The Worst Cable service; yes, I have TWC.

I'd like to sic Feng on them.

10:32 AM  
Blogger michael said...

Why are you getting cable through the Weather Channel? I'm not sure they even provide that service. You know, that might be your problem right there.

mjt might be onto something right there.

THT, you were mentioned specifically by name recently at the other hangout. That's all I'm gonna say about that. Rejoin to find out more.

I just want to tell you good luck. We're all counting on you.

Hey THT. I miss your witty repartee.

10:48 AM

Well if he'd partee right the first time, he wouldn't have to do so many repartees to begin with.
