Next time just bring a bag of dryer lint


exactly what I was going to say. We have done a ton of camping. I have a bag by our dryer and just add dryer lint to it over time. Add some twigs to it, then the larger sticks, it gets going in no time.
I don't read much, but when I do I enjoy non fiction books. I have been interested in learning more about him and his role in the Gulf Coast area, beyond the Battle of New Orleans.
I see many listed on here that I would list as well. But I will add to the list, one that I will listen to beginning to end fairly often. A great debut album:

August and Everything After - Counting Crows
My daughter’s (no pics you dogs) birthday as well. Willie was my first convert. New Year’s Eve show in Houston when that was an annual thing

Does anyone know if this cookbook was ever released. All of the links, or if i typed in silmermooncookbook.com are no longer working. I would be interested in this as I went there a few times back in the 80's as a student and the food was awesome.
My daughter (no pics you dogs) is graduating from ISU in two weeks, guess I'll just miss her.

my 'fail' is i don't have one to post, but getting this back for those that do because I do enjoy viewing them

i was a student there at the time, so I have to go with this. Fun times for sure.
Do you know what was going on in their marriage? Was there still a connection or were they just going through the motions and staying together for kids or convenience. Perhaps that would lead someone to seek companionship sooner than others. Really not for others to judge
I had 3 removed from my backyard last fall. The looked great, provided us with great shade, but they broke easily and it was time to get rid of them. The neighborhood we live in had them lining the entire street and they looked beautiful in the spring, but they are fragile and apparently invasive. Local nurseries no longer carry them up here (I am in Illinois, unfortunately)
TN is trying every which way to give this game away and UVA can’t take it
I have been to the Purdue campus a few times for job fairs, the students I interacted with all seemed like typical students at any other campus. The campus is nice. The graduates I know are all good people
This game is great, and I have a feeling Arky and High Point will be similar
The uni’s look like it, kind of a throwback look, which I think looks pretty good

With the exception of one swing, our AB’s consisted of weak grounders, pop ups and watching meatballs down the middle.

And downvote if you like but good for Venezuela and their fans. Do you think the US would be showing that kind of raw emotion? I doubt it.

I have never watched the WBC prior to this year but I have really enjoyed it, mainly how much the crowds have gotten into the games. Love that at sporting events.

The atmosphere tomorrow night will be off the charts. Even though we are going to be out numbered, I can’t wait. I have never watched the WBC before but these last few games have been electric.

Live outside Chicago. Severe thunderstorms yesterday followed by snow overnight. Down to the teens tonight and up to mid 60's by the weekend. Mother nature is currently drunk up here at the moment, doesn't know what she wants.
