I'm not even gonna get on the scale today. It's been ridiculously rainy and cold, my running has suffered, I ate a chinese food dinner and a pizza dinner this week--I think I'll just put this off until next week.
But I will NOT put off BFFFFA!
What's on your mind people? Are there any subjects that you're dying to share? What's got your attention these days?
BC will probably beat the Hoos like a rented mule tomorrow. The good news is there's nothing better in the Fall than cocktails on the Lawn, particularly at a room with this much history....46 East Lawn, birthplace of Kappa Sigma.
ReplyDeleteCW, if you're coming down, drop by 46 before the game. Cocktails begin promptly at 1300.
Sorry John--I'll be in Easton helping out with the Waterfowl Festival. Damn shame the rain's gonna play havoc with it....
ReplyDeleteGoogle "Obama and Austrian". The smartest man ever to hold the office of POTUS (have we seen his college transcipts yet?) apparently thinks that "Austrian" is a language.
ReplyDeleteWhat is worse though, is that on a visit to Vienna, Obama asked where all the kangaroos were.
Cocktails before a football game? What a bunch of pansies. Cocktails?! No wonder Virginia sucks. Look I'm sorry for ragging your clueless ass, I actually wanted to talk about Obama's seizure of the "Commanding Heights" of the economy and the parallels with Lenin in 1921, but when I see something as egregious to common decency and the American way of life as this, I have to respond. What's wrong with beer and BBQ chicken and ribs? You got something against George Dickel and Jack Black? Buy a friggin' clue why dontcha, whiskey sours, rob roys and pink ladies and football don't mix. Tell you what, go to a Florida Gator game, or an Alabama, Tennessee, Auburn game, set up shop and start drinking your Tom Collins and see how long it takes for some gay guy to slap the living shit out of you and call you a punk.
ReplyDeleteGreg, I concur with your assessment of un-American behavior. However, if we're going to offer terrorists our Constitutional rights, we may as well be drinking Shirley Temples at tailgate parties. Due process, as the ACLU offers in its endorsement of this decision. Shameful.
ReplyDeleteLotta rage Dail. "Cocktails" consists of gatoring in the grass with your Brothers while attempting not to spill the Bourbon in your cup. "Cocktails" means reminiscing about when the University was for gentlemen and women were Down the Road at Sweetbriar, Hollins, Southern Sem,and Mary Baldwin, where they belonged. SEC schools were still shitting in their diapers when Virginia established itself as the preeminent party school in the country...those are facts, not opinons...look em up. I'd kick the shit out of any man I saw drinking a Tom Collins or Appletini at 46 East Lawn. Follow the link to the wiki article. The Five Friends and Brothers who started Kappa Sigma in that room in 1869 had more balls than the entire body of pantywaste "scholars" in the SEC.
ReplyDeleteThis might get some conversation started.
ReplyDeleteCatholic church throwing down the gauntlet with respect to D.C. gay marriage, but willing to rethink of special dispensation is given for pedophilia...
ReplyDeleteI don't know what "gatoring in the grass with your brothers" is, but it sounds more West Virginia than Virginia. Call me crazy but I personally was into gatoring in the grass behind a bush with a sorority sister.
ReplyDeleteBut, hey I'm cool. What ever floats your boat in Charlottesville is fine with me.
no! my ding dong is bigger and more manlier!
ReplyDeleteAll points well taken......
ReplyDeleteGiven the weather, you're right about boats floating tomorrow.
Yes, 'Whatever floats you boat." And speaking of boats, will this be the second or third week in a row which Navy will be significantly higher ranked than Virgina? But does that mean much anymore.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous--
ReplyDeleteThere are high schools in South Texas ranked higher than Virginia this year, and deservedly so. Having said that, Navy, school of my father ('59) is always a sentimental favorite of mine. Always nice to see them do well.
