Auburn hired Clint Myers was hired with the expectation, if not the expressed plan, that Corey would take over after his retirement. Unfortunately, this likely goes beyond Clint protecting his son - The athletic director (Jay Jacobs) has had failed hire after failed hire (Chizik, Golloway, Barbee, potentially…

I’m amazed at how the brodozer trend has gotten worse over the past decade.

It’s almost like cars aren’t good investments.

This is absurd to me, but also not shocking. Our old apartment parking lot was full of luxury cars, and I have plenty of friends that bought a new car after graduation.

I know I’m supposed to read this as Trump, but it’s coming out as Steinbrenner

Whose Gross Cycling Legs are These?

That’s nice. Our 4Runner and Subaru don’t have a canister, but they’re about it the same position and they have their own catch pan. One of those very simple, but really good design things.

My first car was an early 2000s Civic. Not sure if they are still like this, but oil filter was nearly impossible to reach - tucked in the back of the engine, accessible only from the bottom, and mounted horizontally. I’m very happy whenever I see an engine with the filter mounted vertically and on the top of the…

5 more days that I get....

This was great, and it brought back a lot of memories for me! I thru hiked a few years ago, although I skipped the Port Clinton Pavilion, I remember two nice ladies spending the day feeding hikers grilled corn and fresh watermelon right before bridge into town. I walked through about mid-day and didn’t have any…

My commute is majority on 65 mph interstate with fortunately little traffic. Through this section of road, there are two lights with 3 second yellow lights. I’m surprised I haven’t seen this happen yet, but I’ve watched plenty of people - both cars and semis - blow through a red light they couldn’t stop for. Anyway,…

A few years ago, I was in a class with a guy who pulled out a small tub of Kerrygold Irish butter and began eating it by the spoonful. “He’s eating mashed potatoes” I thought. “He’s simply reusing that tub for leftovers because no one, not even he, is that disgusting.”

Ah yes, Le Tour de Franzia

I rode the Bo Bikes Bama charity ride a few years ago. Lance was there, although he and most of the other celebrities kept a low profile. I believe they had their own separate post-ride reception. I do, however, know some people ran into him in the parking lot and I heard he was more than willing to stop in chat. I’m…

Not sure on the recent mule thing, but Buffalo Rock ginger ale is sinus clearingly spicy and goes great with bourbon.

Radiolab had a story on this mine (and some dead geese) a few years ago. I did not know the rest of the pit’s history.

I’m not surprised that he’s charming because most psychopaths are.

My junior year, one of the running backs at my high schooltook a pretty routine hit, walked off the field, and died. He had gotten a concussion the previous week in practice and the second hit caused his brain to swell.

I haven’t watched the NFL in a long time, but living in a southern college town, “don’t watch football” really means “try and separate yourself from literally everything that goes on in town over a fall weekend.” I can pretend the NFL doesn’t exist, but it’s nearly impossible for me to pretend that college football…
