Bad timing with the playoffs around the corner

Tech players to commemorate win over Georgia with ring

Wow. I hate Georgia Tech.



Incredible ball handling skills

Chick-fil-a giveaway


We will beat Michigan State!

Javon Ringer is not going to run all over Georgia. Here are his stats against "quality" opponents.

vs. Penn State: 17 carries for 42 yards
vs. Ohio State: 16 carries for 67 yards
vs. Wisconsin: 21 carries for 54 yards
vs. Cal: 27 carries for 81 yards
vs. Iowa: 25 carries for 91 yards

This isn't like the Tech game. Tech had already run for 300-400 yards against Miami, FSU and UNC leading up to the Georgia game.

The last time Georgia played Michigan State was in 1989. This was Vince Dooley's last game and we smoked them .

We are watching the game at my place on Satuday. Wake up, roll over onto the floor, somehow make it into the living room. Turn on TV. Dont move for 3....4 hours.

I am excited.

FW: A New York Love Story

Genius!

A beautiful young blond, New York woman, was so depressed thatshe decided to end her life by throwing herself into the ocean.

But just before she could throw herself from the docks,a handsome young man stopped her.
"You have so much to live for," said the man."Look, I'm a sailor, and we're off to Europe tomorrow,and I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take care of you,bring you food every day, and keep you happy."

With nothing to lose, combined with the fact that she hadalways wanted to go to Europe , the woman accepted.

That night the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a lifeboat.From then on, every night he would bring her three sandwichesand make love to her until dawn.

Three weeks later she was discovered by the captainduring a routine inspection.

"What are you doing here?" asked the captain.

"I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she replied."He brings me food daily and I get a free trip to Europe! Plus he's screwing me every night."

"He certainly is," replied the captain."This is the Staten Island Ferry "

J-Mac responds to Times article

I just discovered the writer for the Times is a huge OU fan and supporter. I read it again knowing this and it seems very biased.

Inside the Red River Recruiting Rivalry

Great article by the New York Times about recruiting. Texas, Oklahoma, LSU and USC all compete for one player. The journalist tracks the recruiting throughout the process. My favorite part is when Bob Stoops had to watch "Beauty Shop" starring Queen Latifah and Alicia Silverstone.

"Stoops occasionally chuckled while watching the film before talking to McFarland about Oklahoma."

I would love to be a fly on that wall.

Enjoy.

Tim Waite and the Wine Industry

My roommate, Tim Waite, had to be at work this morning at 5am. One of his bosses (name changed to Larry) the previous day had put in a huge order for wine that was selling off the shelves like little debbie cakes in Mississippi. In Tim's business the wine salesman will frequently build displays. For example, Larry built a Christmas tree display for his wine to sell quicker. But sometimes rival distributors will take down all your wine, use your display that you spent hours building and put their wine on the shelf.

Well Tim's boss Larry does not like it when this happens. They were in Brookhaven this morning and a rep from another company had destroyed one of Larry's displays (not the first time). Larry knew exactly who did it. Tim and Larry walked into the store and the other rep had the gall to walk up to Larry and say,
"Hey man, are you ready for Christmas?"
Larry did not say one word. Just walked up to the guy and punched him. Knocked him out cold.

Larry and the other rep were escorted out of the store. Tim hid around the corner and was able to finish the the orders for the day.

Happy Holidays

College football, live in 3-D is coming soon

I am ready for this...

FW: Christmas Cake


Christmas Cake

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 stick butter
1 cup of water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp salt
1 cup of brown sugar
Lemon juice
4 large eggs
Nuts
1 bottle tequila
2 cups of dried fruit

Sample the tequila to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the tequila again. To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink. Repeat.

Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point it's best to makesure the tequila is still OK. Try another cup... Just in case. Turn offthe mixer thingy.

Break 2 eggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit. Pick the frigging fruit up off floor. Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver.

Sample the tequila to check for tonsisticity. Next, sift two cups of salt. Or something. Check the tequila. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or some fink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't forget to beat off the turner. Finally, finish the 20tequila and wipe counter with the cat.

Bingle Jells!
