A little off the wall but how about The Roches?

Little Elvis Hitler don't'cha follow me
These scars on my back - they're because of you
And these cuts on my wrists
They're just me trying to get away from you
And I'm still trying to get away

Hard to beat the 2013 Iron Bowl and the kick six

I'll never forget that game. A friend and I were at Knucklehead's in Metairie sitting at the bar. When the kick six happened that place just erupted. People were spilling out into the parking lot and the street. It was bedlam.

These guys were pretty good too. I decided to not post “California Dreaming”as it’s become cliched these days.

I was so in love with Michelle Phillips when I was a kid.

It’s wild to me that if you overlaid the storm paths of Katrina and Camille, there would be an X where the pearl river passes by Bogalusa. Both of those storms absolutely wrecked that area.

I was in Bogalusa for Camille and it was brutal. We heard pine trees snapping all night long. I didn't expect to see a single tree standing the next morning.

Everything from the materials it sits in and flows through along the process, what they cleaned containers with, temperatures at each step along the process contributes to flavor as well. Having the bottle solves none of that.

All of that and more. How was the barley roasted? What proportions of barley were used? What was the mash temp? When were hops added? What temperature did it ferment at? How long was it aged and in what? About the only thing they know is the water but even that may have changed since then.

The Arkansas State Police are the most badass I think.

There is no question about it. Those guys do not play around and are the world's best at PIT.

I didn't know beer had DNA

Yeast has DNA, barley has DNA, hops has DNA. But it seems like you'd need more than just DNA to make the beer.
U2 - loved their first few albums but then they got all preachy and sanctimonious.
Charles Scott is the only one I know of from my high school that played for the Tigers.

It's the coolest trophy in sports, IMO.

I'm not disagreeing with you but the Claret Jug has to be up there too.

Anybody else have plans?

No, what time should I be there?
Surprised nobody has mentioned Mark Knopfler. He's as good as ever and his band is incredible.
quote:

I did not know that. Thank you for that information as I’ll definitely get that one.

Actually it is out now. I had pre-ordered it a few months ago and I just got the notification that it has shipped and will be here tomorrow. :nana:
Shattered Sword is THE book on Midway. Jon has another book coming out in a few weeks. It covers the year 1942, which is when everything turned around in WWII.

ETA: Just found out that the book is already out. My copy will arrive tomorrow.

Damn. Is there anything Bide can’t do right now?

Catch?

j/k I'm a big Bide fan. Happy to see him playing well.

Did the runner slip in under the tag?

Possibly. I was wondering if they were going to challenge it.

It was music for simpletons

Exactly. It was empty. Devoid of any interesting ideas. There's a lot talent to it but it was wasted on an empty art form.
