Guys from the south talk too slow and it takes them too long to tell a story, the language barrier would be too great.

It's quite common. The FU people drop off their luggage and the Citadel grads take it up to their rooms. They also spit into their Chardonnay's before delivering them.

I will send you the address of that **** hole we ate at in Dallas a couple years back. I have traveled on business for about 35 years and probably eaten in over a 1,000 different places, this was easily the worst meal I have ever had in my life, and that is saying a lot.

You have to try pretty hard to screw up a breakfast but I have to admire their effort in that regards. Kudo's WH. xthumbsupx

If you would of posted this a couple of days earlier I would of been able to buy you a beer. xdrunkyx Just drove though Greenville on my way to Atlanta last Wednesday. Maybe I can finagle another trip out that way around this time from work.

BTW: Why Carolina Ale House? There is a perfectly good Twin Peaks just up the road. :D

Pour's a good spot. Don't think Catamount Man is a fan of downtown:) On the other hand, I am not a fan of Woodruff Rd. But the good thing about The Ale House on woodruff rd is if we have out of towners driving on I85, then that is the right spot for easy access.

It was either for the Eclipse on 21 Aug or the football opener on 2 Sep. Dad said he wants to go to the game so I think I will hang here for the eclipse. It is kind of neat how I am set up for the eclipse. It will pass over both my house here in NC or at my mother in laws house down on the Isle of Palms, so we had options. So I will most likely be there on the 19th!

I know, as the founder of the feast, that if you make it you will NOT be going to work on Monday. Consuming prodigious amounts of alcohol is a REQUIREMENT as well as being completely delusional about your teams prospects for victory.

My impression is that you are completely delusional about your team's prospects without alcoholic contribution ... either that or you are always under the influence.😄

I think I may be back in. I was debating when to go up to Virginia to get my Father and sister and bring them down for a visit. It was either for the Eclipse on 21 Aug or the football opener on 2 Sep. Dad said he wants to go to the game so I think I will hang here for the eclipse. It is kind of neat how I am set up for the eclipse. It will pass over both my house here in NC or at my mother in laws house down on the Isle of Palms, so we had options. So I will most likely be there on the 19th!

I won't be able to make this event, but ironically, I'll be on a plane to Raleigh during the eclipse...pretty sweet.

so, if y'all will include east TN AGS in your round up, I might try to swing down...2 hr drive from the house. I have a Kid's Triathlon in the morning, but could show up fashionably late (about 3) ifyou will have me. And as long as I can clear it with the Warden (wife).

If it's a big tittied waitress you want, go down the street to Twin Peaks. That's where I hung out last year before the Mocs game at Furman.

Just got back to CLT from the festivities. OL FU's Alzheimer's flared up today so he was absent. Catamount Man is still trying to bail out from his TWI (Typing While Intoxicated) so he was a no-show. None of the FCS deserters showed this year (App State) so we didn't have to hear "how great the Sun Belch is".

El Cid, Old Black & Gold (Wofford), myself, and UpState Bison arrived for witty banter regarding football & respectful talk about politics (see, it can happen). El Cid snapped a couple picture for posterity and a fun time was had by all.

Welcome newb! Glad to have you here (I think) (I haven't read your first 4 posts) and we need to get that crew up a bit I guess cuz I thought it was a nice little Sat. turnout amongst AGS fellers but SB turned down a round on me because the group was too small and wouldn't damage the wallet enough. xlolx

I used to send information out to my dealers with time tables and the info would drop right into their calendars and the timings of the program. I suppose other email services would allow for the same thing but it works really nice in Outlook.

I used my wife's quite a bit and I have come to the conclusion that MAC absolutely sucks. It takes so many more actions to accomplish anything. I dont like wasting time with mouse clicks or menus. Maybe if I used it more I could be faster, but the functionality is simply not close to Microsoft office programs. MAC is just too laborious and I never found anything that it did that MS didn't.

I always hear that about MAC and graphics. I do a lot with graphics and pictures, and videos, and I found windows programs to be just as good. I think it is just a cultural bias of "those" types of people.
