Re: Return of Confessions
Loved and love Python, then again my humor leads me mostly to British and Canadian shows rather American TV (aside from the generational classics.)

Re: I love you, Dad
So sorry for your loss L-Jam. Glad that you and your close family were with him when he walked across that bridge.
Lost my dad almost 20 years ago. Saddened the most that he never got to meet my wife or my kids, glad my mom is still going as strong as she is (she turned 90 in Feburary.)

So, if Colorado State finishes fourth in the national rankings, they get a top four seed, unless New Mexico or some other MWC team is ranked above them. But kids love Bronco Mendenhall!

Isn't the draft supposed to be super deep at WR? Not that they'll get a guy that'll immediately replace Diggs, but they need to retool and shed some salary with the bump that Allen gets this year.

Stopped at Giff's namesake burger joint in ABQ last week, still excellent. The boy (who basically survives on hamburgers) placed it 3rd in his hierarchy.
Also, Pericio's (small New Mexican chain) still slaps. Carne Adovada and rellenos from the heavens.

Pour a cup of baking soda down the drain, wait like 10-15 minutes. Follow with 1/2 cup of vinegar, watch bubbles. Rinse with hot water.
If it's got a disposal you can toss in lemon/orange peel and grind for freshness.

Good for you, bud! Thanks my guy. Enjoy the current gig, sort of mentor to my boss. She's going through the cert process now (used to teach 2nd grade until this year) and she's helping to get into the swing of non-academic librarianship. Plus, she's got intel on jobs coming up so I can get a leg up.
