I’m in education. It’s all nonsense. And at principals meetings, they all nod their heads and say “yeah” and “uh huh” like they have any idea or do any of this crap.
I don’t want to hear data driven outcomes for the rest of my life.

That’s a good observation. The Man in the White Van was filmed north of Shreveport and anyone with an old car could be an extra at a drive in scene. I swear a third of the cars were Mustangs, including mine.
A three loss UT and another three loss UT doesn’t get in over a three loss LSU who has wins over both. It’s that simple.
Do I think LSU will do it? No. I think they beat Texas and then lose at Knoxville.

US Army 1993-2007

2 and 5. That was the age of my son and daughter when I was deployed in 2001. 4 and 7. That's how old they were when my tour was up in 2003. The Army asks a lot of its soldiers. For me, it was my time. Fortunately, with God's grace, I didn't have to sacrifice my body. Because I have a loving family and lots of support at home, I didn't have to risk sacrificing my mind. But time is something I can't ever get back.
When I volunteered to be deployed in 2001, I didn't do it for glory, out of anger, or because I had something to prove. I did it because I knew it was the right thing to do. Over a million of America's sons and daughters went overseas to foreign lands in order to combat the hate, fanaticism, and terror that was brought to us. Despite not checking all the boxes we fought for, I firmly believe that the world is a better place for what we did.

Example number 956 why the 90s was the best decade for movies. Even an afterthought movie like this is awesome & more entertaining than 99% of the current crap
Great movie. It was a staple watch in the barracks every couple of weeks back in the DVD days.
Worth every penny.

I was also thinking Clint. He’s got a significant range of movies.

It wouldn’t be without precedent. No one remembered RG3s first few games of his Heisman year because he turned it up to 11 the second half.

Yes, a single knot tie. It’s asymmetrical and half assed.

Because we arent shorties that have 4 feet of extra fabric for all that bullshite. You look up to us by nature.
Would you like me to make the assumption that you must be fat if you don’t have any length for a double knot?
This asymmetrical nonsense is to what I’m referring.

I think it would require the same amount of people to keep quiet that a moon landing or 9/11 conspiracy would require.

In north Madison County there’s a Butter and Egg Road.

Vice Grip Garage on YouTube.
He just works on the car. No deadlines, no “OMG we need to find a buyer”, no made up drama. Just a guy fixing machines.
He doesn’t always do what I would do, but he’s worth watching for a couple of hours a week.

This doesn’t answer your question, but I’m pretty sure that was the year that started the BCS ball rolling.

I remember watching that. Was that the one with the mouse family? Only saw it once and still sticks with me.
