actually Gateway started in South Dakota

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_2000#History They moved from Iowa to SD, but a citation would be great.

Not again! That ain't the toilet!

I like reading what ksu fans have to say about their recruiting classes. Even though they are horrible, they are in heaven and just love the class they get every year. It doesn't take much to satisfy that bunch.

 

It's like giving a child a candy bar or a dog a treat.

For when I had to work on game day, I'd plan my (work) schedule around the game. There was 2 (I know the exact number, because it was hell) games last season that I missed (Nichols St. and Missoura) because I had to work during the game, but I made sure the gf was texting me updates on my cell phone (FYI: this really helped in converting her). And of course I'd send her drunken texts if she had to work during a game.

I made my work bring out a TV if I HAD to work. It was either a TV or a sick day....they could pick.

 

I think I need to work there.

I think I would actually build a rocket on accident!!!!

and then you would have the NSA and CIA crawling up your arse with a microscope, but being from Iowa you might just enjoy that wouldnt you

 

Remeber when they first came out with the Gateway computers... "Computers from Iowa?"

Ah, the joys of marriage... I can't wait!

I can relate. I go out and buy all the texts I need for my classes and you have at least 1 teacher that says "I hate the text, it sucks, yada, yada, yada, so I don't use it. If you haven't bought it yet, don't buy it."

Since I'm stuck up in the frozen white north, I guess I can say that she'd make a fine Ambassador of Canada.

I am not familiar with that case, but as long as it is an ATX case it would work.

 

Sorry, that went right over my head. But I found this: http://john.ccac.rwth-aachen.de:8000/alf/ps2_55sx/

I wouldn't know where to start. Is there any way I can get a fairly decent and modern system into my gutted IBM PS/2 55SX case? For some reason, I've always like the look of those computers

Anyone else sick and tired of hearing how good the Trojans are and how they're going to win the NC for the next 20 years straight??

 

Yep. As for Tejas, I don't think we'll lose to them this year.

I know that it will never happen, but I would like to see a black uniform just once, if only to honor the "Blackshirts"

 

They could make a 'novelty' Blackshirts black jersey. I've seen a lot of 'novelty' hockey jerseys in the sporting goods stores here. But I don't see any games being played with black jerseys.

It was a hypothetical thread, but why do Nebraska football fans have such a hard time with change?

 

Because change sucks!!!!!!

 

Agreed

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

Nebraska uniforms are perfect Nuff said.

 

 

 

 

And don't get me started on Oregon.

Saw it on ebay already..

Won't ship to me, but that's okay I'll wait until a few used copies start floating around (it'll be cheaper then). And I don't think I have enough room on my bookshelf as it is.

Just make sure you have your firearm close by BRI.......Wouldnt want you to have to "sacrifice" your dog again if you heard any "noises."

 

Back to the subject, this off-season is going to long. It's pretty depressing when you have a page-a-day calendar on your desk and you flip ahead to when the season starts, and there's almost as much paper there to write a novel It’s not so bad when it’s summer, cause it’s almost football season, but we still have spring and summer to survive. Driving home last night my Sirius radio was flashing ‘Game Alert’ and I was able to catch the end of the bb game against Baylor.

Guess I can say that's the closest I've ever come to watching Canadian Idol.

Happy Birthday and Happy Birthday!

Ok, just checking...

 

I've heard some Florida horror stories (which kept us from going there on vacation a few years ago). I wear my red with pride, but when you read like:

 

"The state [Florida] government ordered that all company logos be removed from rental cars, and it abolished special license tags for such vehicles. Rental car agencies now give customers detailed safety brochures in English, Spanish, German and other languages, and they play tape recordings with similar messages over the public address systems in their rental offices every five minutes. Germans Warned of Dangers " (Source)

 

It's cause for concern.

 

I think I need to watch that 20/20 about people worrying too much

 

But most of the 'tourist targets' I've read were tourists from overseas.

 

 

I only asked since here you read about/hear on the news about the latest person randomly shot or stabbed for no reason (like looking at someone the wrong way/wearing the wrong brand of clothing). Which is why I don't go to the clubs here.

We're going to be visiting Orlando this summer, and I was wondering what the general attitude towards other teams is? I'm not going to get shot for wearing a Huskers shirt, am I? (We're not going to Miami, so I feel a little relived about that )

 

Considering Orlando (Disney World) gets a lot of tourists, I'd imagine I'll be okay.

 

I'm probably overreacting, but it's still nice to know that I probably am (overreacting).

this was also in the comments...

Fellow Gators, a question. What would we have done in ‘95 if someone had put a giant Lil’ Red statue up in front of the bookstore?

Re: Comment #42:

we’d try to catch and tackle it, but sadly it’d just outrun us, just like mr. fraser and mr. phillips did in glendale…

They mention about how it's similar to Fargo, but it reminded me more of when they tore that statue of Saddam down, and the people beat it with their shoes.

 

That's awesome!

Any rhyme or reason? (aside from the free publicity)

I don't like him and I don't like her...

 

Maybe it has to do with how whenever she poses, it always looks like she turning around to sniff her a$$.

 

Haha "Cheesedick" we just call him "Mr. Zellweger"
