Hey Dutchfan, don't let Kubiak fool you, he's in a lot of danger over there..... sitting behind his computer all day.   Just kidding man, be safe and take care.  Hopefully the Johnnies can do a little better this year when they go Beaver hunting.

Mighty Royal,

What do you think about Kirby Carr?  I heard he hits hard...

I saw Kirby play a couple of times when he was in high school. He was a stud. Turned down a number of Dl and Dll offers for football because he wanted to play two sports!

I didn't know TDT moved to California...

Sheesh, and he hasn't even called.   

Make sure to check out the pictures (under "SLIDESHOW: Images From Arrest").  That guy was pretty darn inventive.

Thanks, MR, but it probably won't stay there.  I've actually been to 100 at least six other times in the last week, but it seems I'm on some karma sniper's daily "to do" list.  Kinda irritating (I personally decided to follow Fins' lead and abjure smiting) but I guess it floats their boat.  But who knows, maybe this one will "take."


A duck walks into a bar and asks the bartender..........

"Got any grapes?"

Bartender says, "No, and I don't want any talking ducks in my bar so get out!"

Next day the duck walks into the same bar and asks, "Got any grapes?"

Bartender says, "I told you yesterday I don't have any grapes, now get out of my bar."

Next day the duck walks in again and asks "Got any grapes?"

Bartender says, "Listen duck, I don't have any grapes. If you come in here and ask again, I'm gonna nail your feet the floor!! Now get out of my bar"

Next day the duck walks into the bar and asks, "Got any nails?"

Bartender says, "No, I don't have any nails."

Duck asks, "Got any grapes?"

+k just for using the word "abjure".

[sumander]

+k just for using the word "abjure".

Tmerton, +k from me as well. I am not the smartest character in the world, but do pride myself on having a good vocabulary. You sent me to the dictionary with "abjure". Must be a common word in legal arenas.

[cobbernation]

cobbernation,

As long as you have the same DB covering Gearman things will be just fine.

Touche to that one raiderguy.  I would +K you, but I don't have enough posts, I hope you accept a raincheck.

[janesvilleflash]

It's not me tmerton, I have 50 more posts before I can wield that power.

I thought this was clever, sent from a friend a bit to the right of me (see? we can all get along).

HOW THE D-DAY INVASION WOULD BE REPORTED BY TODAY'S PRESS:

NORMANDY, FRANCE (June 6, 1944)

Three hundred French civilians were killed and thousands more were wounded today in the first hours of America's invasion of continental Europe. Casualties were heaviest among women and children. Most of the French casualties were the result of artillery fire from American ships attempting to knock out German fortifications prior to the landing of hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops. Reports from a makeshift hospital in the French town of St. Mere Eglise said the carnage was far worse than the French had anticipated, and that reaction against the American invasion was running high. "We are dying for no reason," said a Frenchman speaking on condition of anonymity. "Americans can't even shoot straight. I never thought I'd say this, but life was better under Adolph Hitler."
The invasion also caused severe environmental damage. American troops, tanks, trucks and machinery destroyed miles of pristine shoreline and thousands of acres of ecologically sensitive wetlands. It was believed that the habitat of the spineless French crab was completely wiped out, thus threatening the species with extinction. A representative of Greenpeace said his organization, which had tried to stall the invasion for over a year, was appalled at the destruction, but not surprised. "This is just another example of how the military destroys the environment without a second thought," said Christine Moanmore. "And it's all about corporate greed."
Contacted at his Manhattan condo, a member of the French government-in-exile who abandoned Paris when Hitler invaded said the invasion was based solely on American financial interests. "Everyone knows that President Roosevelt has ties to 'big beer'," said Pierre Le Wimp. "Once the German beer industry is conquered, Roosevelt's beer cronies will control the world market and make a fortune."
Administration supporters said America's aggressive actions were based in part on the assertions of controversial scientist Albert Einstein, who sent a letter to Roosevelt speculating that the Germans were developing a secret weapon -- a so-called "atomic bomb". Such a weapon could produce casualties on a scale never seen before, and cause environmental damage that could last for thousands of years. Hitler has denied having such a weapon and international inspectors were unable to locate such weapons even after spending two long weekends in Germany.
Shortly after the invasion began, reports surfaced that German prisoners had been abused by American soldiers. Mistreatment of Jews by Germans at their so-called "concentration camps" has been rumored, but so far this remains unproven.
Several thousand Americans died during the first hours of the invasion, and French officials are concerned that the uncollected corpses will pose a public-health risk. "The Americans should have planned for this in advance," they said. "It's their mess, and we don't intend to help clean it up."

Well, I had given you +k, so I guess you actually got hit twice.  Hmmmm.  Interesting trail of bread crumbs.

Sounds like me and 93...   think I've been to that point 10 times in a few weeks.   Gave up smiting long ago-although I'll admit to nailing you once during the whole catholic episode      But I'm a new man since!

It ain't me either.  As some of you may know,  I'm a LTLIP (LongTime Lurker - Infrequent Poster, at least when it comes to football), but I'm not carrying around a sniper's mouse.

So for the record - I'm giving Tmerton +k at 3:15pm on Wednesday 8/9/06 to bump him back up to 101.

Rainchecks gladly accepted.

You have to admit it was a pretty incredible play. I saw it and still find it hard to believe. The fan reactions over that two or three minute period were outa sight. Talk about emotional roller coasters!

What I can't figure out is why we (I am taking liberties here) have to come there again. What a bad a$$ drive. But if the outcome is the same it will all be worth it.

See you there?
