This good looking bartender (or helper I guess) didn't know who who Amy Winehouse was because some dude said she looked like her. I piped up "what, are you 17 or something?" And she responded "actually yes I am".

**** I'm old. I couldn't imagine being @BoxsterCy and his age :jimlad:


Odds are against you living that long. In the post apocalypse world of 2060 most the population will be war boys and brides. There won't be any old people.

I should have done a video, and I just wasn't thinking......my weird-ass neighbor Bob across the street was mowing yesterday in the snow. I kid you not. Mowing grass with snow on it.

I know, but I knew LMFAO was split, or on hiatus as pants wants to call it. He probably still thinks C C music factory is cool.
Up until today "I'm Sexy and I Know it" was the only LMFAO song I could name. Now I can name two. Needless to say I had no idea about the connection to Berry Gordy.

A few years ago when the UFL had their championship game in Omaha C&C Music Factory performed there. So did George Clinton (and he's still cool)
 
So Saturday night we are at the BIL's place (the vixen's brother) and her sister and husband are there, too. And I'm going off like crazy while we watch the game, yelling "Go David!" "That's right, sack his a$$!" And so forth.

On the way home, I said to the vixen, "Well, I hope your family doesn't think I'm too nutso." And she replies, "Oh, it's way too late to hope that." :confused:

Thursday after work I got the front and sides mowed and bagged. Was working all day at the benefit so I couldn't get to the back on Saturday. I'm not gonna mow in the snow.
 
Tried to buy tickets through the Jr Cyclone Club for Christmas presents for LittleWx. Site crashed and by the time I got in no MBB games were left.

Update:They just sent an email that said they had technical difficulties (no **** sherlock) and will send an update when the tickets go on sale. I am back in business for dad of the year award!
 
Since I’m in Richmond this month, I just can’t justify driving 2/2.5 hours to DC for a 7pm kick and then driving 2/2.5 hours back at 10:30/11. Between the Amazon Firestick the people I’m renting short term from provided and my fubo subscription (thanks @GTO im pretty sure you First mentioned that) I comfortably watched at home.

We ARE 3-0 in games played while I’m not physically in the state of Minnesota, though, so I think we found what the problem was.

Just like our men's basketball team does better when I'm washing dishes (our Oklahoma comeback started after I got fed up and started handwashing dishes in the sink), our biggest football wins have been when I was unable to even watch the game on TV, much less be there in attendance at the event.

Pitt 2000 - New Year's Eve dinner with spouse
Nebraska 2009 - Grandmother's funeral
Texas 2010 - softball tournament
Oklahoma State 2011 - ok, I did watch this on TV. But the event was cataclysmic, and one more/less person watching, even me!!, was never going to change this outcome
Oklahoma 2017 - Kansas City, daughter's softball tournament
TCU 2017 - St. Louis, daughter's softball tournament
WVU 2018 - Best Friend's wedding reception

So, like, I'm beginning to think I just need to stop watching our games for the rest of the season. :(

I DVD's the Oklahoma MBB 20-point comeback, and I have re-watched it several times. I always get goosebumps, especially when Fran Franschilla said "Here they come, Brent."

I decided not to get any this year, but heard the complaints from my sister. There are only 2-3available games this year. Usually we do the game after Christmas and before NYE (has been on NYE a few times) and have our family Christmas here before the game. This year the game is 12/21.

Is the RTT Christmas at your place the day before or after that?
