Getting Our Bearings
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!

I bet THT has gotten us up to 3.4 wins by now. Say what you will about the guy, but he knows BBQ and sunshine pumps.
He is woefully ignorant when it comes to philly cheesesteaks, though. It's like he's never even heard of Chili's before.
I bet he's heard of Chili's before. Probably just intimidated by how swanky they can be.
No cheesesteaks for me in the foreseeable future. I do have a serious hankering for some barbecue. May have to drive over to Burlington to get some Hursey's tomorrow.
Talk today was "Mapping Salem: 1766 to 2016 and beyond"
It never went past 1766! Still interesting though.
2.0 and I are heading out to walk with the precious puppies. 2.0 says hi to y'all.
Hi 2.0!!!
Did you find any witches while mapping Salem?
Campfire was hopping last night. Wish you guys could have been there. JGT, Phred, Kristinuh, Mr Sensible, FSJ, and Monica all say hi.
Salem maps probably have spots marked for buried Drifter Witches. Wait. Can witches be buried?
Are they saying "hi" to me, or just 1.0 in general? Should I wave, or would that make the situation awkward?
I'll ask them who they said "hi" to at the next campfire.
I suggest taking the ehyou approach and don't get your hopes up. Just assume the "hi" wasn't meant for you, and maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised if it actually was.
That seems like a wise course of action.
If they ask, you can tell them that I acted like I didn't hear. That way I'm not committed to looking like a rube for thinking they said hi to me when they really didn't, nor will I look rude if they really did say hi to me and I didn't respond back.
Southern Salem had belles, not witches.
Speaking of ladies, I don't get the salt + chocolate = good equation. At. All.
Real men don't mix salt with chocolate.
Still no Blue Bell in my part of the country for the foreseeable future. Theoretically, it will be within a 2.5 or 3 hour drive next week. I smell a ROAD TRIP!
You simply must try to the new Salted Chocolate for Real Men flavor ice cream Blue Bell is making now. It's worth even a 3.18 hour drive in my opinion!
Did I ever tell you guys that I make my own chocolate, soy sauce. It's pretty fantastic, if I say so myself.
No bubbs. I don't think you've ever told us that.
Did I ever tell you guys about the time I outlawed tacos in Eurasia?
You've mentioned the taco issue, but you've never explained it. I don't really understand all the ins and outs of the Eurasian taco ban.
Chocolate, soy sauce on a Eurasian taco is probably just as good, if not better, than Hursey's BBQ.
http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/texas-tech-davis-webb-colorado-buffaloes-auburn-tigers-patrick-mahomes-kliff-kingsbury-011516
I guess Webb anticipates future hall of fame QB Jeremy Johnson might get injured?
Clearly. JJ anticipates getting injured every time he touches the ball, so it's not such a far fetched notion.
ALL ABOARD THE WEBBSPRESS!
Toot Toooot!!!
Chocolate, soy sauce on a Eurasian taco is probably just as good, if not better, than Hursey's BBQ.
I've heard about those Eurasian tacos. I don't think there's any topping that will make them tasty... 'cept maybe some Hursey BBQ.
Webb said,
"I'm just looking for the right school" CHECK
"right fit" CHECK
"and for the opportunity to compete for the starting job" CHECK
"and to win a lot of games." Will 3 out of 4 do?
I sure hope #1 plays like it next season.
The D-line will have a lot more viable players to work with next season. So I hope the whole unit plays more like it.
It's Pre-Lee Birthday Bash at the BuyMore today. Huge sale going on til midnight. I'll be here stocking shelves so stop by and say hello.
Speaking of the BuyMore, I miss Col. John Casey.
They need to do a Chuck reunion one of these days. And they need to give Sarah her memory back.
I'm not giving it back until someone finds mine.
You know if you find your, you might have to relive the 2015 season. Is that really what you want?
Excellent point, bubbs. Come to think of it, that's probably why I lost it in the first place.
I'm pretty sure intentionally tripping the basketball official is not a great idea.
Hey, looks like an expensive product that I never bought will be finally be returning to stores near me:
http://www.waff.com/story/30988420/blue-bell-returns-to-n-al-store-shelves-monday
The worst part about tripping the referee was the guy didn't even seem to deserve it. Looks like the dude flopped and was made he didn't get the call:
https://vine.co/v/iOPZqnjDrAY
mad not made, duh
I wonder what color listeria is. Wouldn't be ironic if it was blue?
When's ironic day? I never can remember.
Yeah, that guy followed up some bad acting with more bad acting. "Wha? Oh, my bad. I totally didn't mean to do that. I always extend one leg as far as I can when getting off the floor."
July 9. You'll never get your emigration visa to Eurasia approved with that level of ignorance of their holiday traditions.
I don't care what color listeria is. I'll take Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla whether it's got some or not.
So long, farewell
Rams leave St. Louis with $16 million bill for stadium studies
I plan on sneaking in through Utah on the goat trail. No visa required.
Barber to the NFL ... I consider that good news.
I consider that wishful thinking.
I suppose they should collect $100 from everyone as they leave the court/field.
AU fined ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. Next time will be a QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLAR$$$$$
Gosh that seams steep
HEY JIMMY! War Eagle! LAK doing pretty well lately.
I got home in time to find the replay of some absurd college football game played earlier today in front of 10s of fans in Virginia Beach. It is for Div II, III, and NAIA players who dream of getting to the NFL. I guess that's why it's called the Dream Bowl. Each player pays $600 to participate. The fee covers hotel, scout combine, etc. At least it's college football.
MJT's outlandish prediction: Barber makes an NFL team somewhere as a late-round pick or free agent. His no-nonsense running style is what a lot of NFL coaches are looking for.
And if he really is close to graduating, this certainly seems like the right move. He wasn't going to get near the touches next year that he got this year.
I concur with Volcano Guy. At least about it being the right move. I think free agent is about the best he can hope for.
THT: It is the LAK's turn, as they have been trading Stanley Cups with the Blackhawks for the last 4 years, :)
Don't sleep on the Memphis Riverkings. This could be their year.
I wish Birmingham still had a hockey team ...
And the RiverKings are river trash. They'll lose in the first round of the playoffs as always.

Congrats Jimmy! That picture was certainly worth the four posts.
In Panthers news: looks like their is controversy in paradise! Was Mike Shula's butt tight or not??????
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000625277/article/panthers-oc-denies-calling-plays-with-a-tight-butt
The quadruple post. As always, Jimmy goes above and beyond the mandatory.
Cam has always had a special way with words. What was that one quote about the 2010 team? "A great group of bunches" or something like that.
My triple post beats Jimmy's quadruple post. And it ain't even close :-D
A little mathematical exercise for all you Hottie genii

Yeah, Cam had the "great group of bunch" quote. Seems like there were a few others... I do recall him saying he learned something from the "late, great Tim Tebow," thus suggesting Tebow was dead.
An internets search yielded this gem of a thread, where quite a few geniuses guarantee Cam Newton would be a bust:
http://forums.denverbroncos.com/showthread.php?186757-Cam-Newton-Is-An-Idiot/page2
Some Cam quotes from the thread:
"I'm fortunate enough to be in this predicament."
“You can’t go to Wal-Mart and buy team chemistry.”
“The Heisman talk, you can throw that out the window. The Tebow comparisons, I’ll take that any day. Tim Tebow is Tim Tebow and I’m just Cam Newton.”
“I'm supposed to be getting some visitation, or I hope, from a couple players in the recent weeks or whatnot… It's unfortunate for them. I really keep up with those guys on a personal level and the team. That's a good group of bunch right there.”
“You feed the crowd, and the crowd gives you this type of energy that gives you the ability to feel like you can do anything. I learned that from the late, great (Tim) Tebow.”
“I'm supposed to be getting some visitation, or I hope, from a couple players in the recent weeks or whatnot..."
I had no earthly idea what he was trying to say until he provided perfect clarity with ... .
Those are awesome!
Just think. In another 30 years, he could be the next Yogi Berra.
Michael, I think you should log onto the thread and post: "NFL MVP Cam Newton says hi"
Hopefully he makes it to ESPN for a year like Emmitt Smith did. I remember when he was on, his blunders were well chronicled:
http://walterfootball.com/emmitt.php
My favorite Emmitt-ism:
(Attempting to quote Jimmy V) "Don't quit. Don't ever quit." (Commentary: For the record, Jimmy V's immortal words were "Don't give up. Don't ever give up." Well, at least Emmitt understands synonyms. Oh, and Emmitt, don't quit. Don't ever quit your gig at ESPN.)
Jimmy - it looks like that forum is still pretty active, so that would be a fun thing to do. Maybe I'll do that after Cam wins the Super Bowl this year
it is amazing how universally it seems Cam was doubted outside of Auburn fans and the Panthers.

#TeamWaffleHouse #CrackerBarrelSucks
If you end up posting on that forum, MJT, be sure to let us know. I'll want to see the ruckus.
I can't believe it's not Chili's.
"I Can't Believe It's Not Chili's" is the knockoff brand of Philly Cheesesteaks that Fabio endorsed back in the 90s.
Waffle House eats good. Cracker Barrel eats good. No need to draw lines, bubbs.
Lines are drawn, MJT. I can't abide by poorly done cafeteria food labeled as "country cooking." It ain't right.
I have to admit, I once tried I Can't Believe It's Not Chili's, and it wasn't half bad.
The chicken and dumplings are just great. Unlimited biscuits with every meal, and the biscuits sure do eat good. Their blackberry jam is yummy. They sell Madlibs and good candy. They sell harmonicas. Their breakfast is solid. They have a giant checkerboard. They have mechanical parrots that repeat what you say. They have cards that tell you what happened the year you were born. There are stoplights above the restrooms (which, despite what younger MJT thought, had nothing to do with the traffic coming in and out of the restroom). they have rocking chairs on the porch.
To hate Cracker Barrel is to hate motherhood and apple pie.
Unlimited biscuits maybe, unlimited cornbread now your talking
watched the last few minutes of the GREAT AU VICTORY!!!!
The play-by-play dude on TV... Was SEC Network using the bammer announcers? I've never heard such bias.
Barber to the NFL ... I consider that good news.
only if Jovon stays healthy and 9 holds onto the ball. Doesn't look like we're even pursuing a thoroughbred this year.
@MJT The only way CB equates to motherhood is if your mother was a really bad cook, and the apple pie equates to a boxed one from McDonald's.
Fair point about Barber, THT. Overall, though, it's one of the positions where we have more depth. We did get Malik Miller (a 4* by Rivals), who will be here for spring practice. I think we'll be alright. As crazy as it sounds, one of the reasons I see it as a good sign is because it will force the hands of the coaches to stop pulling Jovon from the games. I guess he could get hurt or go on a dramacation, but it's a risk I'm willing to take.
is MM healthy? I have vague recollections of a blown up knee in his past. We should ask Norm. He follows recruiting more closely than I do.
" ... a meniscus injury early in first quarter of an opening-round playoff game ended his year."
Welp. Rather vague. Might be a big problem, or of no concern at all. I guess we'll find out soon enough. I would assume if it's serious they'd schedule major surgery after the spring and he'd red shirt. If that ends up being the case, then your concerns become much more warranted in my mind.
What do you have against McDonald's apple pie, bubbs? they were 2 for a dollar all through college. They were there for me when I needed them most.
handpacked pint of B&R chocolate chip was $1.10, including tax. That's what I needed most. And sometimes the handpacked quart, at $2.20.
@PFWAwriters
Carolina QB Cam Newton, who led a prolific Panthers offense, was selected as the 2015 NFL MVP & Offensive Player of the Year by the PFWA.
The money's too much.
You want proof that I'll have to work until I die?

Retirement? Don't talk about retirement! You kidding me? Retirement?! I just hope we can work another day! Another day!
Jim Mora... or was it T.Jeff
I plan on working until I die, too. But it's because I don't plan on living very long. I only need to make it about another 15 years to get the youngest safely out of the house. After that, I can cash in my chips!
You're retirement plan is investing in chips, bubbs? Seems a tad irresponsible. What if the chips bubble bursts? My uncle lost his entire fortune when bugles went out of style. Besides, won't the chips be stale in 15 years?
getting "kids" out of the house? If that's the criteria, I'll definitely be working until I die.
This comment has been removed by the author.
Jimmy deleted a comment again. Come on Jimmy, have some more confidence in your posts! Look at the trash bubbs regularly writes without deleting. He ain't scared!
Yeah, Jimmy. Let it all hang out. MJT lets his Cracker lovin' ways be aired freely here.
MJT, shut your McDonald's, apple pie hole. You're ignorant on the subject of chips and you've proven it. You probably scorned people who invested in Betamax, too. HA!
THT, I was talking about the goats. Is that what you're talking about? Having trouble with your corralling skills? Can't keep them out of the house?
"kids" as in offspring, not youngsters. Not just keeping them out, but getting them out. They are far too comfortable. A classmate at college replied "yes ma'am" to 2.0 the other day. OUCH!
What exactly are 2.0 and Lord Byron up to these days?
and not much else
I am a Golden God!!!!
oh wait, maybe I should have said something else
Jimmy's on drugs!
I do like the old timers special at the cracker barrel. Usually eat one of the sausage patties with a biscuit and the other biscuit with blackberry jam, I eat the other sausage patty by itself.
See, Jimmy knows!
Hey THT, whose side are you on in the Chelsea Handler/Heather McDonald feud?
Jimmy's on drugs!
I'm not a Chelsea fan. LB is a fan of West Ham, so I guess I am too. And I can't remember the last time I was in a McDonald's.
Hey THT, what do you think we should name the new planet they found in our solar system?
The old Pluto could be named this
Another example of Irony Day season creeping earlier and earlier in the year (people really should wait for the day after Memorial Day before diving in):

"Adoption Fair"
It's like you can just throw anything in front of "Fair" and it makes it a festive event. Amputation Fair. Inoculation Fair. Map Fair. Fart Fair. Cracker Barrel Fair .... Well. I gues it doesn't work for everything.
I like the Pluto come-back story, THT.
"Too small to be a planet? How do you like me now!"
another story from Michael's irony link
The freezing point of ethanol is -173.2°F. Since it was only -5.8°F, the conclusion that she froze to death because she was drunk is flawed. She froze apparently because she wasn't drunk enough.
"A sweater was found on the ground near her body."
If I understand correctly, in one of the late stages of freezing to death you feel like you're burning up. It's common for people to start shedding clothes.
Another twist of irony.
"in one of the late stages of freezing to death you feel like you're burning up. It's common for people to start shedding clothes. "
I guess Dear Leader was freezing to death. We should have offered him a blanket.
Yes, I was fully aware on Tuesday and am fully aware today of the historical significance of these dates. In fact, I combine one of them with PuntBamaPunt to generate my fake birthdate for non-legal documents or registrations that require such.
I think I'll drive MrsTHT's 19 year old 4-Runner to work tomorrow morning. Forecast calls for 12+ hours of freezing rain before I get to go home at the end of my BuyMore doubleshift. It won't hurt my feelings too badly if the 4-Runner ends up in a ditch at midnight. However, I'm sure I'd receive plenty of hurt from MrsTHT.
They're talking about some flurries down here on Friday night, THT. So, you know, pretty much the same thing as 6 inches of ice for you guys.
Why did no one tell me of this sooner?
http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/01/21/_herbal_cough_syrup_recalled_because_it_is_made_of_morphine.html?wpsrc=sh_all_dt_tw_top
Tell you what. If Cracker Barrel put morphine in their food, I'd probably convert. Just sayin'. You can take that little tid-bit to the top man at CB, MJT.
We wanted to tell you, bubbs. We just didn't know how!
For future reference, MJT, carrier pigeon is the best way to make sure I get a message.
Got it.
I just sent you a pigeon with the following message: "THE SNOW MAY ACCUMULATE!!!!! THE SNOW MAY ACCUMULATE!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!!"
you'll have to tell me if you heard it from the pigeon or 1.0 first.
Pigeon came flying in before posting this. I dunno if it's your message or not, MJT. On the stone tablet was written “雪可能會堆積!!!!!雪可能會堆積!!!!啊!!!!!”
Duh, that's my way of encrypting it. Isn't Feng saying at your house long term? He'll translate it for you.
He can't get to it ATM. He's working on a term paper for someone.
just don't feed him any hot dogs, bubbs
So far, forecasters were spot on... a dusting of snow and now lots of sleet and freezing rain.
Wonder if I'll get to leave the BuyMore tonight.
"My sources say no."
http://www.ask8ball.net/
Stupid 8-Ball. Let me rephrase my wonder...
I wonder if I'll leave the BuyMore in my car or on foot tonight.
I'd anticipate a 5-6 hour walk, with a somewhat risky assumption that I don't get shot before I get out of Durham.
"It is decidedly so."
Durham ain't all bad, THT. I used to donate plasma for money in Durham. True story.
And in the Cam quote vein of thought, who said the following?
"I coulda busted that line and I wish that I had did."
bubbs said that! He was woozy after losing all his plasma.
"I used to donate plasma for money in Durham. True story."
They probably used it to treat GSW victims.
Granted, this ain't no Chicago, but there are many safer towns.
No doubt, there are many safer towns, THT.
But do you know what line I was talking about, MJT? DO YOU!?!?
MrsTHT is already home from the Large Mart. I sure wish I could leave the Buy More.
Either the Mendoza or the Maginot line. Can't remember which one.
MJT is heading home. Don't want to end up on youtube rolling the wrong way down a hill.
bubbs is not heading home. I'm not a quitter. Gonna ride this thing out to the very end, regardless on whether or not that means I'm sliding up a hill or down a hill.
27 degrees all day here, steady light rain for 6+ hours.
my neck of the woods
I should move to Pittsburgh.
one BuyMore customer says he's been "drinking and smoking week. They put something in it. I been feeling funny."
There was a guy at the organization i worked for last year who was giving people a hard time for leaving early when the snow hit. He made it on Fox News rolling backwards down a hill in his truck. Quite humorous.
exAUOC Tony Franklin has left Cal to become OC at MTSU. Wants to be closer to home. I bet he watched San Andreas last summer.
Former Auburn defensive lineman Elijah Daniel has declared for the NFL Draft.
The junior was booted from Auburn in May following an arrest on multiple charges of burglary and theft... Daniel is scheduled to face arraignment in Lee County on Feb. 2. Daniel originally faced four counts of theft and four counts of burglary, but that total has since reached 10 after the case was forwarded to a grand jury in the summer. Eight of the charges are classified as felonies, according to court records.
From http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2016/01/ex-auburn_defensive_lineman_en.html
Daniel is projected to be the first defensive end selected in the NFL* draft

this Alabama democrat says
Alabama is consistently ranked at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to healthcare, education, poverty, and unemployment. Our prisons are overcrowded. Our jobless rate is higher than the national average. And our economy is circling the drain.
All this under the watch of the GOP.
The past dozen years or so of GOP rule in Alabama has made me completely forget that, under the watch of the Democrats during the previous 100 years, Alabama was at the top of the barrel. Right?
Given the author's picture on that article, I'm not entirely sure that E-Bro didn't write that.
You make it home yet, MJT? I sent a carrier pigeon asking the same question, but I've not gotten your response back yet.
that explains it. I can't get that dang bird out of the BuyMore.
Yeah, I'm home bubbs. We put the pigeon in the stew.
There is no football to watch today :(
There's plenty of football to discuss on the Dan Patrick and Rich Eisen shows today. So we've got that goin' for us, which is nice.
Dang it, MJT!
Man, I sure feel bad for all those Patriots fans. Wait. No I don't. SUCKAS!
can someone please get this Windows computer functioning? Every day I am at work reminds me that I'm glad I switched to OS X at home in 2008. Would have done it in 2003 if I'd had an easy way to get all my email transferred then.

Meh. I'll use whatever OS. Not a big fan of Windows, but I can get by with it. Prefer Linux myself, but it does tend to create homework. You have to figure out how to do certain things, because there's rarely a "Linux" option for a lot of popular software.
Any of you guys checked out the TV show Superstore? Pretty humorous. I would consider the humor in line with shows like The Office. Plus, it's a pretty blatant rip on Walmart. Makes it easy to get where they're coming from.
Quiet today. I guess my OS comment was a bit strong. Sorry about that guys. Didn't mean to offend.
I recall a number of Hotties being fans of The Office. I watched it once and never again; it was awful, like the offspring of sitcom mating with reality tv.
Nate Craig-Myers has apparently canceled his planned official visit to Ole Miss this weekend, according to ESPN.
I hope it's true. I can't believe I didn't hear it first from Norm. He's a bloodhound when it comes to tracking recruiting.
I've been lax in dropping my recruiting nuggets on y'all.
Norm is the main reason I don't subscribe to one of the recruiting sites. There's no need when you have Norm feeding you the daily recruiting news.
Sorry, Norm. I didn't realize THT wasn't already getting your recruiting news letter.
Disregard these last couple comments, THT.
I just subscribed and sent the $19.95 fee to Dear Leader. I hope my subscription is activated before NSD.
you just can't beat homemade chicken salad that doesn't contain the salad. That's right, MrsTHT leaves out all forms of plant life. YUMMY!!!
She cooks the chicken, pulls it off the bone, then throws it in the food processor and adds some Duke's mayo. Could I eat it if it contained pickles or celery. Yes, but I wouldn't enjoy it as much.
I have a feeling you've never tried homemade dog salad, THT.
4500+BEASLEY!!!
No, I only eat hot dogs, never refrigerated or with vegetative material (except cole slaw).
Hillary Clinton talks about her concussion
"Receiver Tre Nixon commits to Ole Miss over Auburn, Georgia"
Paired with the previous headline about Nate, that begs the question, of Ole Miss and AU, which team got "their man" and which team is a settler?
Now, if Tre ends up at Ole Miss and Nate at UNC, I'll know which team got the high colonic.
onions go real good in chicken salad, yes they do.
i've been using linux at work. Just started this last summer. It computes good, but some linux people are as weird as apple people. They are all like, "look at me do this vi shortcut sutff! i'm amazing!" and I'm just like, yeah, well, Word does all of that and it's just as fast and much easier, so, you know, congrats Mr Smarty Computerman.
vi! LOL. I do know some guys that had to learn vi/vim and they can do some crazy stuff with that program. But the only way I'd learn it is if I was forced to use it everyday, otherwise, it's not worth it (IMO).
I wonder what SFC uses. Conjecture: Windows.
People "in the know" seem to be hinting we're getting Nate and that put the rest in motion, THT.
Regardless, I really wish Gus would hire OM's bagman. That dude has been producing lights out classes for a program that's never even been to the SEC championship game.
Hey, MJT. Madison is a bit of a drive for you, but you couldn't go wrong with the atmosphere and menu. I think you should pull the trigger on this one: http://whnt.com/2016/01/25/waffle-house-offering-romantic-dinners-for-valentines-day-at-select-locations/
People "in the know" seem to be hinting we're getting Nate...
We're among friends, bubbs... well, except for Feng. You don't have to refer to Norm as "People".
Random thought... is there an app I really need for my iPhone that I don't know about?
My favorite apps are not at all sexy.
I use Recollector to have access to collection stuff.
I use Grid as my calendar and love it.
I use MySafeNotes to store all sorts of important login/account info (bank & cc info is stored only in my head...that's MyNotSoSafeNotes)
I use Waze to know when to let my foot off the gas.
Waffle House sounds awesome. I took my wife there on our first date, believe it or not.
THT: I love the "gas buddy" app. It lets me find the cheapest gas around.
I also use Yelp when I'm on trips to make sure I find the best reviewed Chili's in a given area.
2.0 uses gas buddy all the time. I just get gas where it is convenient and get on the road.
You've offered a compelling reason for installing Yelp.
https://twitter.com/mc_hankins/status/691753121035452417
The only app I use that you would might like is the Google Chrome Desktop app. Basically you can access your desktop computer remotely through your phone. You wouldn't want to do any real work on it, but it has saved my bacon a time or two when I needed a file off of one machine, and just remoted in and emailed it to myself.

Did I ever tell you guys about my million dollar Murder of Crows idea?
Crows are smart and big enough to pull this off. I want to put a bird feeding vending machine on some city roof tops. They "find" change (paper money?) and drop it in the contraption. They then get rewarded with some food. Frankly, I don't know why someone hasn't already done this.
Oh. I forgot to mention it's called "Murder of Crows" idea, because they end up murdering a lot of people to get their money.
Speaking of crows...they're so danged smart, they can and should be trained to guard and attack.
DADGUMIT! That's what I get for not paying proper attention to post count.
that does sound like a great app, bubbs. Of course, since I can't have a phone in prison, it wouldn't do me any good today. I usually don't leave my home computer on, but I definitely will have to play with this app. It sure beats the Chili's locator app suggested by MJT.
epic fail, Norm. I'm just glad y'all went all post-happy while I was looking at Google's web site re: desktop app. Right as I hit the "publish" button, I had a sense of horror that I could be ruining the page flip. I guess bubbs is the new Art.
crows are scaredy-cats. I wouldn't trust them to watch time fly. Besides, the pigeons on city roof tops would eat all the food before the crows get there. The crows would keep the money and go get drunk at the Crow Bar.
Great pun, THT. Top notch.
And boy oh boy did you guys mess up that page flip. Buncha Art Vandelays.
Bubbs, lots of people have had the Murder Crow idea, it's just that the crows always turn on the master once they realize how unfair their wages are. Just try it out if you don't believe me.
I like how I executed that page flip. Plus, Norm is a miserable slouch for not getting in there to do his job. I'm taking control! All your flips are belong to us!!!
You guys are too narrow minded about the crows. All you see are problems, but all I see is opportunity. Opportunity for money and murders.
Murders of crows (obviously).
@MJT I've already worked out a special squad of owls to watch my back and keep the crows in line. So I'm not worried about them turning on me. Plus, I'm lacing all the bird feed with etc. to keep them producing.
Lacing their food with electroconvulsive therapy sounds like a bad business plan. Your crows will forget all their training, be too stuporous to retrain, and won't be able to fly with their little hollow bones all broke up from the convulsions. The basic plan has promise, but I think you need to tweak it a bit.
Oh. You said electronic trade confirmations! I was dyslexic. I'm still not sure how ETCs are going to help.
So that's why ehyou was wearing that crow disguise...
(background for THT: etc is a hardcore drug well beloved by ehyou and other troublemakers. You'd know that if you hadn't quit AUFC before quittin' was cool)
One thing I can guarantee... Despite his play last season, JJ will be our #1 QB next year.
what can I say, MJT? I'm a leader. I'm not going to follow quitters. I'm going to be the lead quitter! I wasn't born to follow. You gotta stand up for what you believe. Let me hear you say yeah yeah yeah.
However, I don't cuss and spit.
That was cruel, THT.
sports fans and crow fans, I gotta get work done before my parole hearing. Parole is a blessing and a curse. Obviously, leaving prison is desirable, but the next destination will be Costco. I may have to misbehave before my hearing.
Drone racing seems pretty neat: http://qz.com/602230/theres-now-a-drone-racing-league-that-feels-like-pod-racing-from-star-wars/
How do you race bees?
You clearly lack basic animal skills. You don't properly care for homing pigeons. You don't understand how to manage crows. And now you say you don't know how to mind control bees.
I hope you guys don't own any pets.
Sounds like we're striking out in our pursuit to get some depth at OL: http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2016/01/auburn_turns_recruiting_attention_to_grad_transfer_offensive_tackle.html
Not a good sign, if you have high hopes for 2016. Which I don't. So, I guess that means it is a good sign for me? Wait. No, that doesn't sound right.
You could not be more wrong, bubbs. It says right here on my resume that I have "basic animal skills."
You must feel pretty silly right now.
Your resume is only accredited in Eurasia, MJT. It's not seen as valid by the International Council of Resumes nor the The World Organization of Animal Skills.
I wouldn't trust you with a Sea-Monkey.
The ICR is run by a bunch of bammers. Figures you would trust their opinion on things.
Yes it's true, the WOAS did not validate my resume either. This is most likely because the WOAS has never been involved in the resume accrediting business. It's not in their charter. So it's nice to see you bring up some completely irrelevant information to try to make me look bad.
MJT is a licensed Trip Advisor in the great state of Idaho. That's better than any phony WOAS validation.
I'm also a licensed Acid Trip Advisor in the great state of hallucinatory intoxication.
on a secret surveillance mission, someone captured this image of MJT's trip in Idaho.
Shhhhh... don't ask him 'bout his bidness
Does Auburn have a legitimate chance to land Alabama legacy Ben Davis?
As legitimate as Leonardo da Vinci or Lawrence of Arabia. We can't even sign AU legacy LB
Davis Jr.? He's a likely qualify problem already.
so, he'll sign with AU, taking one of our spots, then go to JUCO and sign with ua-t? That sounds legitimate.
If Davis Jr. ends up playing for AU, I'll trust MJT with a Sea-Monkey.
I'll wipe myself with a map.
I'll eat a whole jar of apple butter!
MJT, I'd do that no matter where he signs, or even if he doesn't sign. Preferably on biscuits, but straight out of the jar if need be.
Well yeah, me too. I didn't want to get stuck doing something negative if he signs with Auburn.
I'll eat a chick fil a sandwich with pickles and a chocolate shake
