i hate it but i'm uncontrollably drawn to it
A friendly reminder that tonight (Friday the 23rd) at 7:15ish the Bambi Walk gets under way. Who's all there? Lynnie's crew, a bunch of Dutch hockey players, and some people from my sunday team. Good times.

Late start for a Bambi walk
Indeed. I don't have a lot of hope for this one making it to Bardstown Rd. Dom, Shannon and Steph are now also in. We may be looking at a group of 30. FANTASTIC
Is this an extreme endurance challenge doing the Bambi walk in 100 degree weather?
I was watching Louie last night, and he met some chick was into older guys. So they are hooking up and she starts yelling at him to talk dirty to her by saying how old is his. So he's saying shit like "I was born in 1967. I remember when you could smoke on planes." But I lost it when he said "I'm older than every Major League baseball player besides Jamie Moyer who I hear is still in the Phillies rotation" and she goes "OH GOD YOU ARE SO FUCKING OLD YEEEEEEEEEEEES!"Best sex talk line ever. I was also drunk
Sweet action, Ross is in for the Bambi Walk. It's getting LARGER!
anyone doing hullabalou this weekend? my sister actually called me last night w/ a free ticket to bon jovi tonight
Wasn't planning to go. Actually seems like it will be quite miserable.
after getting back from lunch and realizing how fucking hot it is you might be right, but i'm not going 'til tonight, I'm not doing the all day thing, and bon jovi doesn't come on 'til 9:30, so hopefully it won't be too bad
Hullabalou will be great people watching, trash and half naked chicks (most will be both).
i'm going without the wife so i hope so
I sense that Joe is making excuses for all plans tonight in order to sit on his couch.I, on the other hand, will be making a trip to Bed, Bath, and Beyond... maybe over to Home Depot, and if we have time, maybe the fabric shop.In actuality, I'm going to haul the 500 lbs of change I found in Phil's car to the bank and put a down payment on a house. If only they took KFC receipts, I could retire.
I have been productive: oil change and liquor barn.
I fell asleep watching the Reds win. At least, I think they won. God we suck. Of course I will be getting black out drunk with Joanna's family today. Productive weekend.
Sounds more fun than my weekend of studying pharmaceutics.
I drank enough for everyone last night, don't worry.
strong work.
Brewfest next weekend. Oh, the glory!
i guess sundays don't count towards perfect days
Drinking is still fun, but hard to come back from. I wasn't even hungover yesterday, but it is taking 2 days to recover.
I cooked like a lobster from being at the lake over the weekend
I still have your chairs and sunglasses from 4th of July. I also have I think Jay's bag of stuff and a random lid to a container.
So how did the Bambi walk finish?
Not 100% sure on the end. Definitely made it to Molly's, but I think I ended up wandering off and buying pizza.My buddy Ken has a voice mail from the Dutch guys we were with that says "KEN WE ARE WAITING FOR YOU TO COME JOIN US FOR OUR WALK TO THE RIVER!" so who knows if those guys are alive
Sounds like you all were on a mission. Did you just have a drink at each place and move on quickly? Do you know which ones you did hit?I need these details for the record books.
Well the obvious problem with details is that I clearly blacked out somewhere around Bearnos / Tony Bombozz. But we had a set of dutch engineers leading the charge with a print out so we hit everything on the "official bambi walk t-shirt", plus a few extra like Za's. I was for a while pretty good about just getting something like a Miller Lite but soon I found myself finishing girls beers for them which then led to me wanting better beer which then led me to ordering 23oz beers which then led to time traveling to my bed the next morning.I'm told that night caused more than a few "I hate Phil Scott" posts on facebook, so I got that going for me, which is also a good sign.
The only one I saw was from Shannon.
Of Shannon and Dom, not that another shannon didn't have that as their wall post.
not babymama i hope, i know my sister spotted her at molly's
Ah, Shannon should hate me.
If anyone is curious, an 1/8th of a cow worth of meet does not fit in one cooler.
Is anyone running in the Alumni Race on August 12th?
Crossed my mind if I can run.
I have done 6 of the past 9 since I graduated. I missed one because it was a saturday morning and a full 5k and I missed one to drink with Cuban at a Bat's game and I didn't run last year for some reason. If my back will hold up I think I will give it a shot and die. I haven't done much exercise in the past couple months. Moving the run to Tom Sawyer Park really pissed me off.
So is it back to being a 2 miler? I think I could gut that bitch out.Granted my legs feel like absolute jello right now after my 5 mile walk on Saturday and hockey on Sunday and Monday, so clearly I'm a bitch so who knows.

top gang hats:http://www.complex.com/blog_galleri...hats-in-sports/i think it's funny there's a gang that wears the minnesota twins hat
They have messed with the distances every year. They shortened it one year due to the heat and then they shortened it one year because of an archery tournament on the course. I thought they shouldn't have altered the course that year.
The baseball furries in the warriors kind of look like they are wearing twins uniforms
kid hockey fight, i thought this was funny:http://deadspin.com/5596983/mite-fi...ken-up-by-mommy

I like what they say about the A's hats.Adopted by: Almighty Ambrose Nation (Chicago), Orchestra Albany (Chicago), Spanish Cobras (Chicago)Why: The Ambrose and the Albany share the same first letter as the Athletics, while the Spanish Cobras rock the green A's caps to represent their primary color.Complex says: Three gangs from the same city rockin' the same hats? Shit must've gotten real dicey in those shootouts.

Reds game on the radio. Pregame show just used some Alice in Chains. Very nice.
Going to a family wedding Saturday. My cousin just graduated from UL in May and her husband will graduate in a year. They are part of the yea Jesus side of the family that has rocked t-shirts with fetuses as an anti-abortion fashion statement before they could walk. My mom was telling me that reception is a school gym with no DJ but an IPod hooked up to something, and the toast is not to alcohol but to milkshakes. However, there are 2 kegs. Her mom asked my mom if 2 kegs is too much beer for the beer drinkers. My mom laughed and said does she expect most of us to quit at 2 beers? Should be an epic wedding.
Dan Patrick Show headlines for Pitino:Full Court MessBoothy CallPitino Respects Shot Clock in all Aspects of LifePasta Prematura
I was working in a "40 Minutes In Hell, but 15 Seconds in Heaven" joke for trivia
Someone threw in a "was Bo Kimble and Hank Gaithers in the booth with him"
Pitino did say they were going to be more uptempo like the Loyola Marymount teams
Is this the fortune cookie game where you put "in bed" at the end of the statement?
Or "in a booth"
Tried to run. It's not the heat, it's the humility that kills me
by humility, is it a typo or joke?
I believe it's an old yogi berra line. I could have kept running - the humidity isn't too bad, but I was trying to do some sprint repeats and my soul couldn't handle my shittiness.
Hmmm, how about "Rick Pitino started and finishing having sex while I was reading this team name" as a team name?
"Pitino called a 30 sec timeout and had 15 seconds to spare""A 30 second time out leaves plenty of time to cuddle"

I would even consider running this year if it wasn't on a Thursday.I could walk most of it and then go into an incendiary sprint to make the 12-minute mile pace.

How much for the buy in?We also should do a better job of recruiting people. If only we were more popular
My guess is that a buy in will deter even more people from joining. I'd probably still join if it were a nominal fee less than 10 bucks. How would the prize money work. Winner of playoff take all? 70/20/10% for top 3? Money for season winner and playoff winner?

I will officially be voting for Basil Marceaux in the primaries.http://www.colbertnation.com/the-co...010---tennessee
I think you might be assuming the majority are pussies and are unwilling to risk $10. I think some kind of split for regular season winner, overall points leader, and playoff winner would be a good idea.
The problem with a $10 buy in and potentially like six people it'd be tough to give out a prize for multiple items.
some dude in japan was found dead after doing thishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokushinbutsu
$5 buy in, playoff winner take all?
How many people did we have last year, 8,10? 40-50 bucks for a small group isn't too bad.

Joe - I received a letter from the government asking me to take part in something for security clearance. Anything that I should say or not say?
Don't get me fired. I don't have a drug or alcohol problem or debt problem. It is a background check for my promotion a year and a half ago. They did one 3 and a half years ago when I was originally hired.
I beleive I told you about it the first time3 years ago. When it came back around the second time I just had to update my report and I left your name on it. I should have told people i guess. Sorry about that. I think Phil and Douglas are on the list too. If I could figure out your address easy you made the list. And if you had more common sense then b-mac.
i'm flattered that you think i have more sense than bmac, that really means a lot
I walked into work this morning and Phil's machine is playing this sad song on a continuous loop. I was told that it is "Who You'd Be Today" by Kenny Chesney. We really didn't see Phil as a country ballad kind of guy. I learn something new about that boy all the time.
Hockey being cancelled all week really hit him hard
Phil, do you want to launch the Fantasy Football league or should I? I think you have been doing it for the last few years and you can usually continue an old league which recalls previous stats and such.

No, i had forgotten about it honestly, i'm redoing our kitchen right now and I'm trying to get it done this week
What are you doing to redo it?
well not redoing it, just painting the cabinets and replacing the hardware (hinges and handles). sarah and i are pretty much on lockdown regarding anything that costs money right now until all this trial bullshit is over. we've been wanting to do it, we had the paint, just got new handles and that's it. it's not hard, just tedious as hell. painting walls is a lot faster b/c you just use a roller, a lot bigger pain in the ass doing cabinets
i calculated up all the money i've spent on dealing with babymama's bullshit and it's fucking unreal. it costs so much less to raise a kid than it does to actually keep a pathetic loser from trying to take that kid away
New hardware goes a long way with cabinets. I'll probably replace mine here soon.
has anyone seen the oregon trail movie trailer yet?
there's a movie on that shit? i wasted more hours in elementary school playing that damn game. i always got hyped whenever i shot a buffalo
It is actually a mock movie trailer. It crushed me when I found out it was fake.
I don't understand peoples use of the thermostat. If it gets hotter outside you don't have to make it colder inside, the same temperature will suffice that you have left it on all summer. It gets hot so you wear short sleeves to work so the office cranks it down to freezing. They do the opposite in the winter. So basically in the winter dress for summer and summer dress for winter. Logic at its finest.

B-mac is great with words. I called him about Beau he said that he was actually pretty good friends with him in high school. he emailed me asking if I heard anything else and I told him what I had heard and he responds, "that is an unbelievably crappy way to die."

http://louisville.craigslist.org/bi...1884916052.htmlThe bike is in 40206 which isn't far away and hasn't been used in 6 months, my bike was stolen 6 months ago. Looks very similar to my bike. Awkward. googled the cell phone number and found it is a 20 year old kid nicknamed Gfunk. The bike is a 2006 and bought new was around $550. The bike was originally listed for $500 on craigslist. I don't think the person realizes the true value of the bike. I'm going CSI bitches!

Leads, yeah, sure. I'll just check with the boys down at the crime lab, they've got four more detectives working on the case. They got us working in shifts.
joe, do you really think that's your bike? Is that exactly what you had?
make, model, year and color. The not giving up the serial number is where it got suspicious and then he quit responding. The state trooper who is the husband of a coworker said it is to ironic to avoid and if st. matthews blows it off he will screw with the kid to arrange a meeting.
fuck, i'll do that if you want me to. you can come with me to the meeting and say i needed your truck or something
The state trooper said to not meet with the guy and leave in the hands of st. matthews and him.
Is the state trooper the guy all about getting stolen bikes back?
but how can you beat him up if you don't meet him?
The state trooper is the coworkers husband who is all about getting stolen things back.
I actually work for a crime lab. I'll have them go over your bike for trace evidence. Although, unless they find a pubic hair, they're pretty much useless.

Holy fuck that hurt. i don't think my back is healed yet. If it is I have atrophied my left leg something fierce
I'm anxious to hear my time. It could be anywhere between 14:00 and 16:00 minutes I think. Pretty weak they didn't have people calling out splits.
Glad to hear you both survived, sort of.
I held with phil for a few hundred meters then asked if his foot was numb to which he said no then I said my leg is giving out and he was gone. Brock, phil lost a sprint at the end to a class of 98 guy.
Felt good this morning until about half way through the walk in from the bus stop. I had about 3 blocks left when my leg decided it was done and I had to limp the rest of the way in.
PhilAre you saying you ran a 16 minute 5k?
I think I was around 19:00 for a 3k. I was not going to allow the DNF.
My left arm is spasming I think it may be a heart attack or stroke.
that's solid work joe, most people have to work pretty hard for 50 or 60 years to get their first heart attack. you're such an overachiever
I second that over-achiever comment. I was about your age when I had my first knee pains playing basketball. My brothers will never stop reminding me of the time I went for a lay-up and said "oh, my knee." So you beat me on the failing joints.Good thing your brother is an orthopedist.
I have a message from a detective with the SMPD. I am playing phone tag with him. Justice!
joe, you know the url that will have the times?
Detective checked out the bike and it was clean. He went nuts when he read the email and said this was going to be cake. The cop arranged a meeting and the kid said he "got it from a friend" and the cop thought it was a done deal. serial number didn't match. Cop did say it was smart to contact him and would have done the same thing.
Damn, that did sound like an open and shut case
The cop was pissed when it didn't match. The cop said he has his own gary fisher mountain bike. the from a friend is what through him for a loop.
The cop did say that that if I wanted to go buy the bike that I would be able to get it pretty cheap probably. I am contemplating it.

I bought the Encyclopedia of Louisville.St. Matthews was originally called Gilman's Point, named after the bar that was located there. It used to be a major center for cockfighting, and was once "The Potato Capital of the World"The old Thornbury also gets a shout out.
I remember Freshman retreat at Trinity having someone like Domhoff of Bryant or Chancellor talking about cockfighting because trinity's school seal has a rooster on it. I think there is a potato reference on it as well. My grandpa contributes the tomatos in my backyard growing so well because of the history of potatoes making st. matthews good soil. I say that it has to do with my other grandpa taking care of the yard.
my sister has a coffee table book like that, it's pictures of louisville then and now, it's actually kinda interesting

Ok, I know we have a league on Yahoo, I was seeing if anyone would be interested in a pay league, $25 buy in on Espn.com. I sent out invites to everyone I had an email address for.
Weird dream of the night. So we all went on some sort of road trip for some reason (adrian's bachelor party?). Anyways we are getting hammered at some bar where we meet some ladies. And because this is a dream, I'm not creepy and awkward so I hit it off with some chick. Well I go back to her hotel room to do the do with her. But I gotta first leave my bag of stuff in my hotel room. So I go to that hotel room, drop it off, and head back to her place.So I sneak off the next morning, go back to my hotel room and I'm peeing when in walks this 5 year old black kid. I'm in the wrong hotel room. So I get out of there quick before I'm found out. Problem - all my stuff is now in some strangers hotel room.Then I woke up.

Radio show on 840 before Rush, the chick that replaced Francine, had a weird show. Her show was on sexting and sextortion. It started really creepy with pedophile extortion stuff and suicide. It took a turn for the comical side and started mocking high school relationships and how she is going to wrap her daughter in bubble wrap and send her to a nunnery at 12. She also dropped plenty of the I'm glad there wasn't social media and camera phones when I was younger because we did some dumb things. Bad news is the show was only an hour because the UK game is coming on the radio.

glad to know you're listening to UK games at work and broadening your horizons
It was boring enough to switch over to Gen X radio to listen to Warrant, Alanis Morrisette, Hootie and Mr. Big.
it's kinda hard getting into these games, i tried watching again last night, and i did see a lot of it, but there were so many timeouts and the team they played sucked, so it didn't exactly keep my interest. i had the radio on at work for the game, but i wasn't following it too closely
Unlimited timeouts and no foul outs makes basketball boring
As the season keeps going and the Reds manage to not completely tank, I'm thinking more and more about going to St. Louis for their series September 3-5. Is it worth it? Will I be murdered? Chicago was a blast, and I've had a good time in St. Louis in the past.
Brock,that is an excellent idea. If I wasn't on call that weekend I would think about going as well. Not many weekends left, but if anyone wants to try to head up to cincy for another game I'm in. It's really almost like a playoff atmosphere up there already when I went this weekend. On a separate note, I am way to old to drink heavily for a full weekend. I think I'm still trying to recover.
Should we not speak of a possible Reds playoff game in fear of jinxing it?
Apparently the JCPS buses really screwed up yesterday.

We could discuss how fucking awesome the Reds game was last night. Down 4 in the 8th and they score 4 in the 8th to tie and 4 in the 9th to just piss all over the D-backs rug.Seriously, after Brandon Phillips hit that double in the 9th, I fully expected him just just take a leak right there on second base while waving to the fans pouring out of the stadium.Granted this was Arizona, who sucks, but a 3 game lead this late in the season makes anyone giddy.
John Belski is retiring
beat me to it Phil.Brock, the Reds Cards series is over Labor day weekend, correct? this is also the UL-UK game weekend. Anybody have any plans for that game?
Shit! I didn't even realize the Cumberland River was flooding. I don't think its anything serious. We just had several days of rain off and on, so apparently they have to let some out of the damn up-river and its making the river higher than normal.
Brohm getting snaps tonight for the Bills.
Alright, so more news. Apparently there was a ton of rain up in Cookeville, which is up-river, so that's what's causing the trouble. Stupid Tennessee Tech.

This girl is like the kirk gibson of being a drunk blonde on thirsty thursdayhttp://louisville.metromix.com/even...54/image-detail
I was debating with my cousin at the game last night about him bring his 3 kids to the game and who is at fault when I spill beer on them. I'm carrying a beer for myself and bringing one to my dad and his 3 kids are running around aimlessly and bump into me and I do the raise the beers while doing a 360 beer spill to spill in every direction but on them. At a past game I was lectured for my language when they were there. I feel that bringing your kid to thirsty thursday is your own risk and I shouldn't have to be responsible for my own actions. If you don't want to expose your children to beer and behavior that comes with beer, don't take them to Thirsty Thursday.
their fault, if i'm bringing kids to a thurs bats game, i'm staying away from the outfield terrace

I heard he de-committed from TX and might re-classify into 2010. I haven't kept up much with the CATS lately. Too much work for school.
in the process of reclassifying, some are saying it's official, others that it's not quite official yet, but he's apparently a UK lean for this year, has to make his decision this weekend so it won't be long

Rumors of Froman being named starter
he has been named starter already
So it is official now?

they are thinking about adding cross country running to the winter olympics
Right now my work league for fantasy is at 6 players. So we could go with a 12 team league with the sci in one bracket and work on the other if numbers get low
Is it just me or are the 21-year olds now a lot chubbier than they used to be?
can you expand on that statement?
I was just looking through those Metromix pictures.On a similar note: Vanderbilt began classes today and its in the high 80s.
i think you're making that assumption based on the level of talent that frequents the 4th Street live establishments, which needless to say is not stellar.
From what I remember from friday there were some good looking girls out and about.
Phil, what is the link to the Sci league?
well maybe the CJ photographer just likes fatties then, I don't know.

I was picked up to go back to playing softball yesterday to avoid a forfeit so I was stuck at first base as I am not as graceful moving as I once was and was avoiding more injury. I will say, as long as no lefty pulls a missle right at you, first base is the way to go. It isn't far from the dugout and you just hang out. Also, never put Chris at shortstop.
i played second base over the weekend and it was a refreshing change of pace from the usual shortstop / 3rd base i'm usually playing in softball
Hartline or Froman? Which QB will screw up and lose the game?
hartline's 2-0 vs. UL teams that were better than this year's, so I'd put my money on him to win
Do you want Hartline as your QB this season? Hartline did win last year, but he really didnt help their cause much. Is he the best QB to manage this team? I think Froman will try to be Elway and Favre rolled into one and take of and throw a dumb interception or 2 or try and scramble for an extra yard or 2 and get lit up and fumble.
at the beginning of the season i try not to hold opinions of QBs, he's obviously the most experienced and was doing reasonably well before he got injured. plus you never know how well he's developed in the offseason. that said, i do think he's on a relatively short leash this year. newton proved he could manage games last year as a freshman, especially against tough competition. but they kept the play calling extremely conservative for him so who knows what he can do. as long as they win i don't give a fuck
and i know absolutely nothing about UL's quarterback situation so I won't even try to offer an opinion on whether froman will be good or not
Whoever UK's 3rd string guy is will transfer.
UL's best QB Will Stein isn't allowed to play because he is too short. All I have heard is that if he was over 6 feet tall he would be a D-I starter. Burke and Froman both suck I believe.
ryan mossakowski. what's interesting is he named hartline the starter, but didn't name a 2nd string officially, so technically newton and moss are even. i think he's trying to avoid that scenario becoming a reality. newton was forced to step in last year b/c moss was hurt and redshirting, but moss is supposed to be every bit as good as newton with a cannon, more of a traditional pocket passer, while newton's more of a runner/playmaker. i think most people prefer newton b/c they've never seen moss yet
wasn't burke the QB last year?
Froman was going to start but was hurt in the preseason, so Burke started at the beginning of the season and got hurt so Stein came in for a game then Froman came back and finished the season.

Moss and Newton are a year apart. If Moss leap frogs Newton, I see Newton transferring. Newton has the highest potential, but he has to put it all together and quit making bonehead plays.
I am guessing UK will exploit UofLs smalllish defensive line and go with a running game. With Hartline under center, we know we won't see a pass more than 15 yards down field.

Hey Joe or Phil, either of you still have you old math textbooks? I'm wanting to teach myself discrete math and quantitative methods, the cheap way.
Brock, Tiff and I should be at Brew at the Zoo again this year. Hope it doesn't rain, I don't know the forecast yet.
I don't think I have the discrete math textbook. I believe Phil does. Dr. Fenton, our professor wrote his own textbook. I think the only books I still have are linear algebra.
See you there Marc.I am still disappointed with your post frequency. Work on that.
did you all hear about dr. tietjen, that wacked out biology professor who died?
Yeah, he's had cancer forever, but apparently it was a stroke that killed him.

Best story of the day: I was at lunch and lady at work started commenting on personal things about my family. Other people thought it was strange, not knowing my grandpa worked at the VA and she is old enough to work with him. In filling them in of this information she gets personal and starts calling my grandpa mean. I question that and apparently she is still holding a grudge from 20 something years ago when my grandpa made her cry at work. Therefore, it is family tradition to make women cry.
the appropriate response probably would've been that i'm sure he had good reason to make you cry

to answer your question, amazing athletic accomplishment. i haven't played ball in six years now and i wouldn't be competing well in college, much less AA professional ball. also considering everyone was gunning for him and he's freaking 6'6" or something with a huge strike zone, he also finished 3rd on the team in RBIs too

oh, and robert sullie and justin coleman are ineligible for UL this year, it's gonna be ugly
Rick was on the radio this morning commenting on it. When asked why Sallie was ineligible he said "I think he never graduated and got a degree from Memphis." He said Kuric or Swopshire will take the positions of left by those 2. Rick went on to say he wants this years style to be like the 96 championship team, then laughed saying there is no where near that talent level, but I want us to have the 7 passes in 7 seconds that that team did. He then added you know, our 13th man on this roster is not Nazr Mohammed who is still in the NBA.
Coleman was no surprise - Sallie was brought in to help fill that void. I wonder if Sallie just couldn't pass the GRE or whatever. The whole thing seemed like a hail mary from the onset so I'm not shocked it blew up.On the plus side - it's Kyle Kuric time!
The plan is to lock Kuric in a room with the Syracuse game on make him watch it over an dover. Pitino said he hopes Kuric wins the job because he has the athletic edge and speed over swopshire.
seems like that would be the best strategy with him, and completely ignore every game after that one

I have reason to believe either Scott is hurt, something is wrong with his bike or it is the staggered start and he started late because everyone around him in ranking in the swim has already been updated to the next segment and scott hasn't despite having faster first 2 segments.

btw, if anyone likes the Powerade Energy Gel's I have rough 700 of them. I have 28 cases of these:http://www.vitacost.com/PowerBar-Po...rawberry-Banana
btw, there is something soul crushing about seeing someone at 11:40pm hitting the 1.4 miles to go mark and them knowing if they can just run a simply 14 minute mile they'll finish. If not, they are fucked. And they just can't get their legs to do it.
I felt that way after picking up their used sponges off the ground for 3.5 hours
Phil, I'll take a couple cases off your hands
joe, what was the cost of getting steepleton to move a pool table?
$200-250?
i actually just called and they said $310. maybe they raised it. sarah's aunt called us yesterday, her father in law died earlier this summer and they're about to take a bunch of stuff to an estate sale, but they're trying to offload a bunch of it to family and friends, including a two year old pool table that's been barely used that's apparently pretty nice. i'm trying not to spend money right now but it sounds like we can get a steal on it
I hadn't moved a pool table in a few years so $310 sounds reasonable. You can typically refelt it then too if it needs it or you want a different color.
i don't know what it looks like, but his widow told sarah it's apparently a really nice table that the dude took good care of. if we can play the poor family member connection and get it for a few hundred bucks, plus the cost of moving it, it will beat the hell out of paying a couple grand for a new one
Going in the basement? It is an investment in your future.
yes and yes, i agree wholeheartedly. the damn thing's been done almost a year and it's still only a playroom for kaelyn. damn legal fees, another reason not to get a babymama, it fucks with your man cave
Brent, I'll have those suckers in my car for trivia. Just remind me.Hope you like Strawberry Banana...
I took a box of the powerades, some pretzels, oranges and bananas
Phil, I seriously am in pain from picking up all those damn sponges.
I got stuck in the uhaul for an hour stacking chicken broth. That was rough.I should have grabbed some of the powerades but man were they nasty.
If they kept track of stats, joe would have easily won the sponge stage of the iron man yesterday
The turnover time of used sponge to rinsed and returned to the ice water was ridiculously low.
I wasn't cool enough to be Chief GlowStick Officer tagging the last runners with the glowstick of shame.
He took one look at me and knew that I'd give people their death sentence with the dignity they deserved. And throw in some chicken broth and cookies too.
I'm also hoping I make an appearance on the Ironman Youtube channel. I fucked rocked an interview about how oranges are delicious.
i'd let the zombie second from the left eat my brains, if you know what i'm sayinghttp://louisville.metromix.com/even...23/image-detail
In 2006, film student Alex Kralie began work on his first feature-length film. Titled Marble Hornets, it was about a guy returning to his childhood home after a lengthy absence. Kralie and his friends were rather excited about working on it.After two months of on-and-off shooting, Kralie suddenly canceled the project, claiming it to be due to "unworkable conditions".Jay, his friend, asked him what he was going to do with the tapes. Kralie replied flatly:"Burn them."After much arm-twisting, Jay persuaded Kralie to at least give him the tapes, to which Kralie agreed under the condition that they were never mentioned to him again. Kralie transferred to an out-of-state school, never speaking to Jay or anyone else again.Jay, spooked by Kralie's comments, filed the tapes away and forgot about them. Until July 2009.While reading a thread on Something Awful about The Slender Man Mythos, Jay was reminded of the tapes and inspired to look through them. He promised in the Something Awful thread to post any interesting things from them to YouTube.He sat down and started watching the hundreds of unmarked tapes. There was some scary shit in there.Jay started a Twitter page to chronicle his findings. Since Entry #9, he's noted a guy named 'totheark' responding to each entry. Here are the videoshttp://www.youtube.com/marblehornet.../28/Wmhfn3mgWUI

Tonight's 30 for 30 is on Little League. Should be a good one
I watched an abridged version of it Saturday during the world series. It was pretty good.
wonder if valley sports will be on there
It is about a Washington team from the 80s
How do they play Little League up there? They probably get rained out every other game.
Dusty Baker on Aroldis Chapman handling the pressure of the Majors:"I think he can handle it," manager Dusty Baker said. "Because if you can handle pitching for food, you can certainly handle pitching here."
Befriended the falls city sales rep tonight. Walked away with 3 falls city pint glasses and a beer cozy. Anyways, I'm trying to get them to sponsor my C league team. Is $500 too much to ask?
btw, these are the jerseys we'd dump the logo on:http://www.athleticknit.com/images/...KEY-JERSEYS.jpgI think they'd look pretty fucking awesome
Art-matic's blog post is worth reading, even if you are a UK fan:http://www.cardchronicle.com/2010/8...on-the-kentucky
good for art having faith in UL. He's completely wrong about having a chance this year, but it's cute that he's looking forward to it.
The front of the KFC Yum Center is a rip off of the Staples Center the way it is all glass and the red slanted lettering. I noticed it walking by it this morning while they were putting up the sign.
Fantasy football draft Friday at 7? What is anybody doing for the UL-UK game?
i got no plans, i was going to throw that out too. i seem to know a bunch of people going tailgating but not going to the game, which seems ridiculous to me.
how to play defense in hockey, according to our french canadian goaltender:Actually, to play D, in a 'no check' ligue, is the toughest job on the ice. You can't use the normal tools of the defencemen (to hit guys). My brother, was the toughest defencemen that I seen in my life, just guys were scared of him, he almost kill guys, on the ice or in the parking . He could not do it ! I can't rember why are we playin a no hit game, but he's ejected and he yells at the ref ' what do you want me to do give him a Kiss? Oh geez it was something for the church, and the ref was usually a priest! But you see my meaning eh I hope. It is not easy! - I will try real hard to don't leave stuff all over the place
i can't keep sweating jodie sweetin if she keeps popping out kids w/ random dudes:http://www.showbizspy.com/article/2...ild-a-girl.html
wheels are in motion for a falls city jersey.

i hope gilchrist is not having second thoughtshttp://www.nationofblue.com/gilchri...-thoughts-2571/
the Kirkland 30 for 30 was pretty good.
adrian, he's walked those comments back already, he chalked it up to having a bad day. apparently cal called him after he saw those and cheered him up
"cheered him up", is that what a sack of money with a $ sign on it is called?On the cincinnati reds nasty boys wikipedia page there is a section called Nasty Boys 2010. I like it.
i was thinking he probably just sent hookers to his house, but money might've exchanged hands too. either way, only the best for UK recruits baby
Are there high class hookers in his town or did he ship them in?
oh cal would send UK freshmen for sure. he wouldn't trust hoochies in another town he doesn't know
Is the draft still on for Friday at 7? That's going to be tough for me since we'll be traveling on Friday. Any other point in the weekend may be easier.BTW, Michelle decided to join the league. Is that our first female member of the Fantasy league? She's been respectable the last 5 or so years in my family league.
as long as she doesn't give up after six weeks i'm all for it
Come on Brock, Friday night is perfect. Saturday is horrible unless it is a pregame activity, but some people may be tailgating.
so do we have an even number so we can have a league?Sunday evening may not be too bad,but I'm ok with Fri night as well.Saturday is a horrible idea.
Friday night is perfect?!For those old foggies who sit around and watch Wheel of Fortune, but it is a holiday weekend.We'll probably be somewhere in Alabama at that time, and I don't know if they have electricity, much less internet in that state. If the consensus is to stick with Friday, I can just pre-select and hope for the best.
the draft's at 7, it's not like it's peak drinking hours or anything. with that said, i can do sunday if need be
Phil, are you really going to do a red jersey with a red logo? Either white, gray, or navy would probably look better, but sounds like a good idea.
finally a cancer awareness bracelet i can get behind:http://www.usatoday.com/news/educat...lets01_ST_N.htm
the reason we'd go red is because all the other colors are already taken in the league.What I'm thinking of is like the Red Wings Jersey but instead of the tire with wings it'd be the white portion of the logo.

7:00 Friday for a fantasy draft gives me a great reason to crack open some beers on a friday night.Reds magic number is 23.
draft party at joe's?
What is going on for the game?
i still got nothin
I just switched around the database for this shit. let me know if anything fucked up is happening
another little test...
how is the phone version coming along?
that's actually what I'm working on. It should start resolving at http://mobile.nattysci.com in a little bit, but you can check it out at http://dmjm725-site0018.maxesp.net right away. Need to fix some sizing issues though
Sending from my phone...
Test #2
Phil, get to work, check your email.
snitch
more testing. And marc just wants a beer glass
Phil probably has the power to fire Brody.
Ok, last test. Site should be live soon. That's jeromes job. Might bump the font size up though
Ok, try http://mobile.nattysci.com from your phone. It looks like the address is making its way across the internet
http://deadspin.com/5628076/finally...esnt-disappointsurprised no one's mentioned this brawl yet
Alright, mobile.nattysci.com is live. Hooray.
I need to fix the way the top and bottom buttons work. Right now they are shitty.
Test from the mobile site
Sweet it saves my username and password
I'm think of changing to only displaying the previous ten comments. Lots of scrolling just to see if there is anything new
Posting at trivia on the mini natty sci, what could be more sci than that
comicon?
Anyone doing anything for the game tomorrow? Draft still on for tonight?
instead of saying i got nothing, i'll just ask what you want to do. i have no interest in going to tailgate at a game i'm not attending. i'll come over with beer or something
I am emergency back up call for a ticket to the game if Joanna decides she doesn't want to go to the game. The weather is supposed to be nice so I am expecting her to go. At the same time I don't want to wait and not get the call and sit around by myself. If I don't go to the game I have no problem having people over.
My cousin and her husband bought Tailgaters over by Papa John's. You could kill two birds with that. Tailgate with the folks going to the game and then stroll over to the restaurant to watch the game.Just trying to promote family enterprise.
Looks like I'll be lying around in oil-soaked sand on the beaches of Alabama during the game.
Has tailgaters been cleaned up or is it still ghetto?
We were allowed to wear our favorite team t-shirt to work today and I am ashamed at how many people wore Bellarmine gear.
i hadn't heard of anyone going to that place in a long time
Philco did you expose a web service yet?
Wow! Nattymobile, mobilenatty, whatever. Good job Phil. Brock your beach should be pretty clean
Office mystery...who vomitted in the women's restroom sink!
anyone doing tequila shots at lunch?
god i hate fridays before holiday weekends
This is a painful afternoon. Fantasy draft, football game and 3 day weekend. Too much excitement
double rainbow guy sold out:http://buzz.yahoo.com/buzzlog/93979?fp=1
I was quite pleased with coming up with the Double Dwayne Bowes as a team name, but apparently the whole fucking internet had the same idea
Tailgaters should be pretty nice now. It was closed for years, but they reopened it back in May. Trying to spread the word.Barry, thanks for cleaning up the beach for my arrival. I appreciate that.It must be nice to have a job where you are trying to waste time as Friday expires instead of frantically wrapping up work so you aren't there until 8pm.Yes, I'm bitter.I think our plan for the draft is to find a WiFi hotspot along the road and draft mobile. That'll be interesting.
