I went to one where the groom sang a song while the bride walked in, then the bride sang a song before the ceremony started, then the preacher sang a song while they stood there, then the married couple sang a duet after the "kiss the bride" part, then the preacher sang another song as they walked out.

The groom had "help me" written on the bottom of his shoes that made everyone laugh when the couple kneeled. The bride got upset when she found out that the groomsmen had written on the shoes, and she locked herself in a bathroom and wouldn't come out.

When she finally came out, they got in the car and left, but they got in an fight on the way out of the parking lot. The groom pulled over about a mile down the road, got out of the car and ran away.

Turns out that she was 2 months pregnant and that is what she told him in the parking lot that started the fight. He was shocked because he had been working out of the country for 4 months prior to the wedding.

I have no idea how things turned out.
State finishes the deal. See you soon OU.

MSU gives up 2 runs in the first inning in Eugene and then puts up 21 scoreless innings to finish off the regional. We don't have any hitting, but thank goodness, we didn't need much.
MSU with a 3-run jack in the 6th to put them up 5-0.
MSU with an early 2-0 lead in the first over St Marys
MSU 4 Oregon 0 - Final

Alyssa Faircloth with the no-no. She gave up a walk in the first and retired the last 20 batters.

MSU ends with 13 runs crossing the plate in the 3rd.

The SEC started it dominance on tv with TBS.


That is how I reconnected with SEC football in California. I would have breakfast and settle in to watch a 9 or 9:30 am game every week. Either Cal or Stanford generally had a 1:30 game on campus. I could watch the full game on TV and still make it to my seat in time for kickoff.
War of the Arrows is a Korean historical flick along the lines of The Last of the Mohicans.

A nobleman gets acused of treason and gets killed by the king's soldiers. His 2 kids flee the capital and settle in a remote area on the northern border. Because their dad was a traitor, they grow up as commoners. The brother becomes the best archer in the region. His sister gets married to the son of the guy protecting them.

During her wedding raiders from the north cross the border, sack the town, and take a large number of hostages, including the sister. The brother had refused to go to the wedding and was out hunting when the raid happened.

He sets out with his sister's husband and 2 of his friends to get her back. The movie takes off at this point in nonstop action with his small band against a small army.

The Korean name of the movie is actually The Last Arrow, which makes total sense when you see it.

The movie is on Tubi in dubbed and subtitled versions, and there are several trailers on YT.

My favorite Mads movie is a quirky Danish movie called Adam's Apples.

#5 MSU knocks off UGA 4-2 to move on to an Elite 8 match with #4 Virginia.

#9 Oklahoma will meet #8 Arizona soon in their Sweet 16 match. The winner gets top seed Wake Forest.

On the other side of the bracket #2 Texas moves to an Elite 8 match vs #10 Baylor after beating #15 San Diego.

South Carolina was the 5th SEC team in the Sweet 16, but they dropped their match to Virginia.

I was in Palo Alto when we played Stanford in the Super a few years back, and I had to listen to the game on the Stanford radio feed. Their radio guys were lamenting the fact that we were kicking their tails, but they were excited about going into the outfield after the game and getting fed.

One of the guys was keeping a notebook of things MSU did better than Stanford for baseball games. At one point he said, "Sheesh. I need a new notebook. This one is full. I know you guys think I am kidding, but coming here is very similar to Dorothy waking up in Oz. It's just a different, much better world "

The grilling is in the outfield. It started many years ago in "Left Field Lounge". The outfield was loaded with all sorts of homemade rigs with seats and built-in grills. The rigs are gone, but the concept is the same.

Crazy. Bryce Chance with 1st inning grand slams in 2 straight SEC games.

McPherson is not on the injured list this week. It will be interesting to see how Coach Oak uses him. He said earlier this week that McPherson was slotted for a relief appearance, but with the Game 3 starter listed as TBD, I suppose that he could be an option there.
That crazy South African guy that does YT videos from Asia gave this advice, "I used to use the heel up method, but I'm strictly a toe down guy now."
