re: My Christmas gift giving between family members rant

Buncha whiney bitches in here. Go buy some gifts and give them away, that's what makes you feel good. Or grow the frick up and don't do it if it's so "stressful".

What does a GM do? Just wondering
Not sure what our GM will do but while watching the Texas Tech game last weekend the announcers said their GM had the power to sign/offer NIL money to recruits. The announcers said this left the coaching staff to focus on the on field product. Not sure if their GM is fully responsible for recruiting but I like the idea of a GM having that as at least a part of their responsibilities.
Damn, what'd you rob a Wera store? That's the most expensive screw driver collection I've ever seen, I love it :lol:
And I trash all blow mold cases except for my socket set. I do have 1 socket set that's in a nylon bag and I freaking hate having to dig through it to find what I need.

I hate the fact that that press conference changed my mind on Sumrall, I don't want to have this hope :lol:
Even with the drama, I'd have loved Kiffin, but let's ride!

At one point they were in a perfect circle formation shooting at a monster in the middle. Everyone knows that's a great strategy, zero chance for friendly fire hits :lol:

UF over UGA

Why couldn't he sign an extension and then leave?
I'm assuming any extension would come with a big buyout to be paid to OM if he was poached, deterring most schools from coming after him.

Ole Miss fans are the ones bringing it up every five minutes trying to convince themselves he is going to stay.
They're trying to convince themselves that they're the better program and that there's no reason for Kiffin to leave for UF.
Now let's ask a very simple question. If the roles were reversed, would UF fans be starting threads every few minutes about Kiffin possibly leaving UF for OM? :lol: Of course not, and that tells you all you need to know.

Hey, at least it's something to look forward to in that game.

I mean, you can say the same about Ole Miss. We were all-world under Vaught and Freeze won big too
And how many trophies do you have? Being all world during those time periods must've filled the trophy cases, right?

Drinkwitz, Freeman, and Franklin are the names that make me gag, don’t want any one of them. I’m kinda at the point where it’s Kiffin or bust, but I could at least get on board and ride with most other names that are brought up. Wouldn’t be super jazzed but could talk myself into seeing what plays out.

You just wanted to post a pic of him shirtless or are you trying to imply something here? Dude is 80, we should all hope we look that good when we're 80, you probably look way worse now and I'm assuming you're decades younger.

He is the closest I have seen to the Head Ball Coach. I don't believe that he will ever coach at UF but it would be fun to watch. Heck, watching him at Ole Miss is fun. Hotty Toddy, I hope this is his year to win it all.
Couldn't agree more and I'm 100% prepared for us to not get him. Makes me very sad for the state of the UF Football program. I'm not even 100% sold on the fact that Lane would bring us titles but he'd bring the excitement and fun back to the program.
I'd just order online unless you need it immediately. BR and the surrounding area are terrible when it comes to woodworking tools/supplies.
PMC is definitely the closest thing we have to a Woodcraft or Rockler, but if you're used to going into a Woodcraft store you'll probably find it underwhelming.
I would take the time to check out Service Lumber and Brazos, they have a small selection of tools/supplies and it's worth getting familiar with what they stock if you're getting back into the hobby.

Not true.

The perception of diamond rarity is largely a product of marketing and supply-and-demand principles, where scarcity is artificially created or exaggerated to maintain high prices.

If Lagway shows the same signs of struggling against Miami I really want to believe we'll see Jones, or anyone else get some snaps. That probably won't happen based on Napier's comments this week though.

Depends on what you plan to use it for, but I think you'll find the 24" very limiting. Also, look into a track saw, they normally come with tracks and the Wen brand is supposedly a decent saw for fairly cheap.
re: UF hires interim President

I doubt an interim president will make sweeping changes but we can hope.
Looking at Wikipedia, he seems like a smart dude, nothing about sports though.
