  1. I agreed with Dan, you forgot that us Southerners have humidity!!! After a rain storm it feels hotter
  2. LOL! That's funny!! Now that we are in subject on xbox live, I think I'm go play Battlefield 1943
  3. Really? Mine doesn't...hmm. It doesn't bother me too much, it kind of sad, if I take them out and I can still hear other people music then it is definitely LOUD!
  4. My music loud, because that how I hear it. My window is rolled down because I like it better than the air condition. Also, when window is rolled down there lot of wind and other traffic noise which makes you want turn music up a little more. At least in my case. It nothing out of disrespect, it just seem what helps me hear better. So lets start a new rant of people buying those huge subwoofer where everybody in town got listen to what one person is listening too.
  5. Sums it up... ;D Been quite a few things happening around here as well.I've been hearing ambulance and fire trucks all day. A few weeks ago we had a car full of teenagers run around the train track barricades and the train hit them,killing all 5 kids.Upon further investigation they found out they were trying to get one of the teenage girl home on time so she wouldn't get grounded. This happened about 2-3 blocks from our house,I've never seen so many TV station helicopters in the air as i did that day. Wow, that is just tragic.
  6. Indeed, they also paid dairy farmers to kill their cows or export them in the 80s. They also told American farmers to set-aside their land and do not farm on it. They also set the price of commodity above the market equilibrium price and when farmers couldn't sell all the product, the government bought them. The only perfect competition industry left in America the government subsidizes it. Yeah, it nothing new. Call me when something new is reported.
  7. For a true LSU fan, you got a huge crush on Florida..... : Alabama fare against Florida better than LSU. ;D I will never brag about Florida or any other team in SEC. Even if they are playing a team outside the conference, I will simply tell the opponent they are tough, because they play in SEC. Time for kick-off. After helluva battle with Virigina Tech, mark your calendar for October 10th showdown, Alabama Vs Ole Miss. Alabama playing South Carolina for Homecoming. How about that. SEC team vs an SEC team for homecoming in Tuscaloosa.
  8. I'm betting this guy is unemployed. ;D What kind of person got be bored enough to do this? ;D
  9. I finally beat Tebow at something. Read link.. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/sec P.S. If you read on down, apparently one of Alabama's freshmen QB has impressed our All-American Linebacker!
  10. Hopefully the commercial times be cut. Games on CBS for instance, will start at 12:30, and next game suppose start at 3:30, but the game starting at 12:30 will not end until about 3:45-4:00. But they will not starting showing the 3:30 game until 4ish when all commercials during post game is done. It annoyed the daylight out of me. And if a game at 12:30 feature an unimportant game say LSU vs Whoever, but 3:30 game featured Alabama vs Tennessee, the LSU game be cut short in order to start on time at 3:30 for Alabama and Tennessee game. I just wish they change the times on CBS to allow allotted times between games. Anyone else notice this? P.S. ESPN should provide better scheduling of games. ;D
  11. Sometimes, I wonder if he had went to Alabama would Saban have been hired as coach.. Before going Florida he was choosing between Alabama and Florida. I remember article about it before SEC game he committed to Florida at last minute.
  12. How do you think I feel? I had take a quiz on environmental economic. How government can regulate pollution while still encouraging economic growth. I made 80% on that quiz, it was total b.s. I learn something interesting though, it call a "tradable pollution permit" If any firm keeps their pollution level lower than government standard, they receive credit, which they can sell to other firms which gives buyer of the permit ability to pollute at certain level. I hate that chapter, lol.
  13. I was taking an online quiz for my economic 2 class, and I missed a question about 1996 farm act. The question asked: The 1996 Farm Act: A) Increased the amount of farm subsidies from the federal government Called for deregulation of the farm industry C) Called for a phase-out of farm subsidies D) Raised price floors for farmers I picked (, however, I was wrong. The answer was ©. I'm sitting here scratching my head trying figure out different between deregulation and "phase-out" subsidies. Here what my notes tell me about 1996 farm act (this from a powerpoint giving by the professor) . and it also says The notes also talks about government no longer used set-aside programs, etc. So this sounds to me that government is deregulating all the prices and specific output a farmer can produce, thus, this is deregulation. How is elimination of subsidy not same as deregulation? Regulation means the government decides what output and prices the producer is required, my notes says about 1996 freedom to farm act, the market no longer had to follow government's price floor, nor the farmers had to produce a certain output.
  14. That's nice, but title of thread says college football.
  15. Past is past, but as your college level history professor will say "history repeats itself."
  16. Look, the 3 best team in big 12 last year. Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas Tech in that particular order. 2 of those 3 teams was beat by a team from SEC. One of those team barely beat a team that got dominated by SEC 2 years in a row on the national title stage. SEC is still best football conference in the land of college football. Horns will not hook anything. Big Al has a bigger horn, the tiger is fast, the gator is well a sneaky S.O.B. (they got 2 or 3 players that are 5'5 or smaller that are starters.what the deuce?) P.S. If you want go a little further back I remember in 2005 Texas Tech brought a high quality "air-raid" offense in cotton bowl. Alabama defense shut 'em down and went on to victory. Defense is king in SEC, and that defense will stop any big 12 offense.
  17. Ole Miss, Alabama, and Georgia. See Dan post about Ole Miss.
  18. Sir snook, who would like France? ;D
  19. Nice! I had my first boxer's ear fully cropped. She look real good. I wish I had cropped my 3 year old's ear.
  20. Got used to her in a heart beat. He was chewing on a bone last night, and the puppy laid next to him and licked the bone, the 3 year old just stared at the puppy. Didn't even bark at her or nothing. He just stares at her and plays with her gently. I love the brindle coating on the puppy. Chain bass, nice dog! People think boxers are vicious dogs, but they are really sweet and energetic. They are pretty much only breed I actually own.
  21. Thought I show off my boxers. The big one is 3 years old the little one is 7 weeks old. My first boxer (not pictured) I got her in when I was kindergarten, and she died when I was a junior in high school. I think Boxers are more beautiful breed out there. They are great animals.
  22. For Catt, the only video that matters between you and I. For everyone else, that video sure will fire you up. Saban got some fire in him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbW6Q4dVPyU I thought LSU could tackle? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KO8Wf0VKip4
  23. I'm not looking past them. I'm just saying, our defense makes me giggle like school girl. ( i know that seems weird, but come on, this defense is extremely talented and stacked.) Asked your ACC buddy Clemson about number 62! Watch the snap at :52 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAvpXkK8Ijs Watch 2:03 and on up. 9 starters in those clip are back. The entire upfront is back except one DE i believe. That defense is brutal.
  24. I'm ready for September 5th. Alabama loaded at defense. Greg McElroy is indeed a new starter, but hey this guy sat on bench for 2 years in high school behind Chase Daniel and in one year broke all of Daniel's record including the Texas state records. McElroy a smart guy, he threw a really good 20 yard bomb in corner of end zone against Auburn. I saw the A-game, he real smart, he going get the job done. Alabama got all of their linebackers back, (Rolando McClain is a leader) and they got a guy who could move a mountain sitting at nose guard, and bunch strong-speedy guys in the secondary. While I'm concern how quickly the ground game will be establish for Alabama against VT, but Alabama should prevail with their stout defense. P.S. Javier "no fair catch" Arena will give Beamer a taste of his own medicine.
  25. If you should lose this contest to the girl in bikini, I would sue them for being sexist. ;D
