I looked that up a while back. I don't recall all specifics, but I do recall a couple of officers in LA regiments and 1 that was a surgeon. Now you have me thinking about this again, I need to go look it up and check it out again.

I made jambalaya for Clemson game. It is going to be in the 60’s and a dreary, rainy day up here outside Chicago, and I am in the mood for some red beans and rice, so that is what I’m having. And some Abita Amber in my stadium cup from when I was in school there during the Arnsparger years

Asheville 3rd week in October

Posted by tgrfan87 on 9/17/26 at 12:56 pm
Wife and I are planning a trip to Asheville the third week in October. Arrive Monday, leave Friday afternoon. Plan to visit Biltmore and see Asheville, but also am interested in doing the Smoky Mtn Train out of Bryson City one day and checking out some leaves.

Any recommendations for the town, maybe some good drives of easy hikes with views? Anyone done that train before?
My wife and I went to CO the first week of October last year. Flew to Denver, drove to Mr Princenton hot springs, spent the evening there and enjoyed the springs, next day, drove to canon city, spent the night at the Hotel St Cloud, and rode the Royal Gorge train. Then drove to Breck for a couple of days to do some easy hikes. Leaves were great, weather was great, Breck was not crowded at all.

I really enjoyed the hot springs, wished i could soak there longer.

Love Van Morrison. As mentioned Astral Weeks is top notch. I also like Poetic Champions Compose, Moondance, The Healing game and St. Dominic's Preview to name a few others.

A good live one I have come to enjoy is 'It's Too late to Stop Now' From that, I Believe to My Soul is a great bluesy tune.
my tradition to start the season is on game day of game one, i crank pre game/touchdown, then Hey Fighting Tigers, then me and my kids put the flag out. They are now 25 and 22 and we did it again Saturday. I will do that as long as I can. I live outside Chicago and can't get down there for games, so I keep that tradition going as long as I can.

I had no idea they did not play Hey Fighting Tigers any longer.
I agree, but it would seem to be easier to block up the middle, not off the edge
I really have no problem with what he said. I really don’t think LSU is going to get hammered tomorrow. The entire state of ‘college football’ is what will get hammered
my wife is 59, a Scandinavian from Minnesota, and wears little to no makeup, nor does she need to. My daughter is 22 and does not wear makeup.
Ozzy at the Texxas Jamm at the Astrodome in the early 80's. Was like a zombie up there on stage.

I like all of those.

I would nominate Time as well to this list.
On the Turning Away is another
I was thinking this same thing the other day, I felt like this all started with EA sports. The student/athletes wanted to be compensated a little to use their name, image and likeness on a computer game, or autographs and the like. How did that evolve so quickly to million dollar contracts?

I was lucky enough to have seen him at Jazz Fest, on the Riverboat President, and at the Astrodome with The Who
