re: Which is the best of the also ran bowls?
Posted by ClusterCock on 6/6/25 at 9:42 am
Went to Birmingham twice.
First game we lost in the most "don't give a damn fashion" to UCONN. Ran out of Papa Johns pizza at halftime at the Papa Johns Bowl.
Second game lost to South Florida in overtime. Both games were freezing cold. Always fun with the grown kids but damn

Sorry I didn't read all the other thread. Looks like buyout is closer to $5 million.

Even as early as a week ago I would have said "no".
Now, not so sure. I believe his buyout is $7 million. That would be hard to swallow.

SCLibertarian, I live in MB now, but I went to school in Hemingway and grew up in Williamsburg County. Your analysis is spot on.
Are you on 701 or 261? That's the way I go to my farm.

When it comes to picking a restaurant, I tell her to suggest 3 restaurants she would be fine with. I get to eliminate 1 and she gets to pick one of the other 2.

A quick Google search says The University of South Carolina has 325,000 alumni and Clemson has 189,000 alumni. I think that's pretty close to the overall split in the state ~ 65/35.
Obviously the upstate is more Clemson and Columbia is more USC. Other large population areas - Charleston, Florence, etc. tend to lean USC.
One poster made an interesting comment - Clemson fans tend to wear their colors all the time. Carolina is more subdued. For example, we're in a supper club. 5 couples are Carolina, 3 are Clemson and 1 is unaffiliated. The Clemson supporters always wear something orange - maybe a Tiger Paw on a golf shirt but always something, the Carolina supporters never do. I only wear Carolina stuff at a Carolina event.
It's not like I don't want anyone to know who I support. - Hell, I get tearful while hearing Alma Mater - we're proud to be Gamecocks!

re: How many hole in 1's do you have?
Posted by ClusterCock on 3/3/25 at 9:23 am
Playing over 30 years, came withing a foot 3 times, including last Thursday, but never had a hole in one. I've only seen 1 hole in one. Funny thing, I've holed out from the fairway numerous times and I've had a double eagle.
Go figure

Myrtle Beach is full. The Yankees that moved here a few years ago are complaining about the Yankees moving here now.

Divorce lawyers do the same thing. They've worked out a loose framework for settlement on the golf course and drinks afterwards.
re: Those that love their job, what is your job?
Posted by ClusterCock on 2/26/25 at 10:08 am
Partner in a Wealth Management firm. Love my job, started out as a "Stock Broker" 30+ years ago. Worked hard, gave good service and advice to my clients and built my book along the way.
Left Wells Fargo Advisors 4 or 5 years ago to start my own firm. My sales assistant of 20 years came with me. I manage ~ $150 million give or take.
Keeps us busy but I have all the time in the world to do whatever I want to do. Sunday afternoon, I'm ready to go to work Monday morning!

We have a split King bed. I rotate the mattresses every month - foot to head and change mine with my wife's. We've had it for 3 or 4 years and they're good as new
re: Carolina, yall got like 14 fans at your game right now.
Posted by ClusterCock on 2/20/25 at 8:48 am
Not 100% sure but I think the game was moved up due to the incoming weather.
