I dont know if I can do whiskey and ice cream. Seems like a puke fest about to happen. Is there such a drink out there??

Most obnoxious fans are LSU and Tennessee is a close second.

Georgia fans are known to be pretty arrogant and until a few years ago I loved using the joke that UGA fans had the arrogance of Notre Dame with Auburn's trophy case.
Thank you all for your kind words and prayers. This has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever faced and my boys handled it better than expected which is all that matters to me. My six year old absolutely adores Lucy and was sad to say goodbye but he understood why. My wife and I cried enough tears to drown an elephant because Lucy was our first baby. The last thing she knew was the love and hugs from us as she fell asleep.

I was fine today until I came home and Lucy wasn’t there to greet me at the back door. We’ve lived in this house since 2019 and all I’ve known since I’ve lived there when I get home from work Lucy would meet me right by the door and we would sit there for a couple minutes just me petting her and telling her I missed her and I’m so glad to see her. I’m sure that there will be other memories come up but that one stung hard and probably will sting the hardest.

My wife and son want another golden and I told her that I’m good with it as long as we go get a shelter pup too.
The roller coaster that is auburn football will continue its path of quick cuts of fun and exciting things then huge drops with all kinds of twists and turns. Just when you think it’s over there is another drop. It’s the most entertaining team in the conference.
Update:

Thank you all for the kind words and prayers. My wife just got a call from the dr and they found cancer on the scan. We are going to take our boys to see her later this afternoon and my MIL will take them home while my wife and I help Lucy cross the rainbow bridge.

My wife has already found a breeder that is a couple of hours away and several friends and neighbors have used them. I'm tempted to get two puppies.
Our golden girl, Lucy, is 10 years old and is the most gentle and loving creature God has ever put on this planet. She is an absolute angel for our six and four year old boys and they absolutely adore her. My wife and I had been dating for about a year when we got her. She is my first dog. This is so hard for me to do and I am ugly crying in my office right now.

Lucy quit eating a few days ago and yesterday refused any and all food including her favorite items. I took her to a vet specialist and they are going to do an ultrasound to see if its cancer. She had a mast cell tumor when she was four and we did chemotherapy at Auburn Vet School. It was several thousand dollars and she was only four so we knew we had to try it. It worked and she made it to ten years. We decided that if its cancer we can't do that again and will have to say goodbye.

We took her bed and her favorite toys to her yesterday and our boys got to pet and love on her. I knew I was saying goodbye then and I think my wife realized it when she saw me cry.

Please pray for my family because I don't know yet if they will get to say goodbye to her. This is going to devastate my kids and my wife and I pray that they can find the comfort in the great memories we have of her and that is going across the Rainbow Bridge to play with other good pups, chasing squirrels and rabbits and waiting for us.

This was Lucy last month.

And, Auburn basketball was 7 - 11 in the SEC. They are so pitiful that it's not even fun to laugh at them anymore.

That is simply not true. It's always fun to laugh at Auburn.

LSU fans don't seem to think that they would have been insufferable count if they won.

Over the last 50 years, how many SEC or National championships does Ole Miss have? Is that LSU’s fault too?


What has LSU done this decade? Nothing.

Two Ole Miss students in Oxford, MS died Monday. Coroner confirmed the deaths. Officials are running separate investigations with no evidence linking them. Packaged kratom was found in both cases but is not confirmed as a factor. University police know of no additional deaths and urge people not to spread unverified rumors. Causes remain under investigation.

not long ago I wanted to experience a bit more of grateful dead, although at the time I knew nothing about them other than they had super long jams and people often cited specific live concerts rather than actual songs. I asked the board about it and someone pointed out that two of their better known albums American Beauty and Workingmans dead actually were just studio songs, normal length. I listened to both and really enjoyed them!


I have nothing to add to the subject of Panic but if you're looking to dip your toe into live Grateful Dead here are some good options on Spotify:

1: Althea (Live) - Without a Net

2: Jack Straw - Nassau Coliseum 3/29/1990

3: Truckin' - Live in London 1972

I got into a server running with a consistent squad for a couple of hours tonight and had an absolute blast. Communication is key and we were setting up OPs and staying on objectives. I ran medic the whole time and got a ton of revives which is a lot of XP.

This game is hella fun when folks are playing roles right and communicating.
