Arguably the greatest contribution of Creole culture to mainstream American culinary thinking.

Whew. It's only you. As I scrolled down, and the img painted, with the glasses and backdrop, I thought for a second someone had posted a photo of the late H.S. Thompson, at his home in Aspen, getting ready to go out to do a little elk hunting.

Still coasting on that national championship from 1936 I see.

It was 1939. Our Heisman was in 1957. A #2 ranking in '75 (on probation, if I recall), and in the 80's in the Top 5 for The Best Team Money Can Buy. SMU, of course, was #1.

1939, my bad.

Definitely. I bought the packaged mix but it just wasn't the same. You have to be sitting outside so the wind can blow the sugar all over you.

When is CO going to install E+ so I can sit in comfort on their planes?

It's been far too long since I've been to New Orleans...there needs to be a DO down there sometime sooner than later.

Was just there in May for my first time. Was quite the spectacle and very humid!

When is UA going to go into chapter 7 so we don't have to have this conversation anymore?

The man used to hunt wild boar in his boxer-shorts with a .357 magnum whilst pegged on LSD. That he lived as long as he did (despite taking his own life) is a minor miracle.

Yeah, that was your bad. I'm going thru your *MegaDo pics on flickr. I should be finishing up some work, though.

In less than 24 hours I've found another, more addicting, thread to peruse.

GTITAN Nov 12, 2009 4:07 pm

Colpuck, did I read correctly that you are on a DL 752 at the moment? If so, how is it? I am looking forward to being on one next week.

Apologies if I read incorrectly!:)
