The piano on "You Don't Understand Me"...goodness. Everything about them rocks.

Yeah, I typed out "You Don't Understand Me" then erased it and put "Consoler Of The Lonely." It was too hard to choose!

In fact this should become the motto of this thread...

"Any poor souls who trespass against us
Whether it be beast or man
Will suffer the bite or be stung dead on sight
By those who inhabit this land

For there's is the power and this is the kingdom
As sure as the sun does burn
So enter this path, but heed these four words,
You shall never return..."

That sounds like it should be from The Boondock Saints 😛
 
My undergrad and (hopefully) MD diploma, residency and fellowship certificates, are all going on my wall, along with anything else I get along the way (AOA if I'm ambitious enough).
 
Ehehe... for some reason I thought those 6s were 9s and was going to camp/snipe that top. Oops!


Another time, perhaps!
 
I know, but I do not know if I have seen diplomas in those settings.
I think people do hang diplomas there. One of my interviewers had an entire wall of framed certificates--I am not exaggerating. AOA, diplomas, awards for doctor of the year...
 
Raaska! Question for you; how does the weekend of July 18th sound for you? Also, I think we should just stick Austin. I want to find out if all these praises are deserved.

Sounds good to me! 🙂 I'll leave right after "class" on the 17th, and leave late on the 19th (it's a short drive from Austin to DFW!). Mandatory orientation on the 20th🙁

Are you booking tickets as we speak/type?!

Excellent; I will be booking a ticket this weekend. Any suggestion on hotels to look at?
 
I think we're going to have to keep our eye on Swarley and Raaska. There's some funny business afoot 😛

Hey now, Raaska and Chubbs have a fb relationship now, I'm not about to step on my buddy's toes... that's not my style. Furthemore, we're hoping Chubbs is going to join in on the Austin fun.
 
But I think it's 45.... 😆
I'm stooopid. 🙁

🤣

I'm married to Azadre on here, Chubbs is my fb bf.........Swarley an IRL RENDEVOUS?!?!?!

Lol, nooo, I think his committment to Myuu is pretty solid. 👍

🙁 Lol, I already sifted through his post history. He said he was planning on being in New Orleans that weekend.......so I think I am going to have withhold some kind of fb virtual sexy time to convince him to come to Austin instead :laugh:

Ah, withhold that! Though he is on a recent celibacy kick. How far away is D/FW from Austin?
 
Ok Swarley, instead of trying to recommend specific hotels, I'll just let you know what areas to look in. I don't know how you do it, but I look up hotels through sidestep.com or one of those massive search vacation sites, and take the address and plug into Google Maps to get an idea of the location.

-> Downtown Austin is pretty sweet, but it might expensive
-> South Congress Ave (SoCo) has some non-chain hotels, and is really the definition of Austin. Again, might be expensive? Go look up the Austin Motel though :laugh:
->Anything around UT Austin will be legit
->Maybe try and avoid hotels that are sitting right on IH-35, those are hit and miss....depends
->Austin is very quirky/hippy, so you'll find a lot of bed and breakfasts and such, so if you're interested, those would be a cool stay

Let me know 🙂

Excellent, I will let you know what the final decision is.

<------ Excited; finally going to see Texas!
 
Yep, tomorrow then Tues-Fri next week.
Awesome! 😀

Yay! Another overcast day here in Phoenix (it's only 83 degrees 😱), which will make for a good run, so see y'all later

Oh, and Swarley, recruit more people! 🙂

Bye Raaska. A friend of mine who is living in D/FW is going to be coming down to Austin that weekend also. I'll work on Chubby and put out a general invitation. Who all is going to be in Texas this summer, you should plan on coming to Austin the weekend of July 18th.

Also, looks like I can get a good deal on a hotel that's just about 4-5 miles south of downtown. Reviews are good and looks nice.
 
I have an interview for a lifeguard job tommorw..wtf am i supposed to wear to that?
 
I'm looking at Spurs and Funky for sure! Austin weekend of July 18th!

Getting back to the TOPic of the Raconteurs...they rock!

Stress makes my hair fall out.

Thankfully, I've got so much of it that it could probably fall out every day and it wouldn't even be noticeably thin until my 80s or 90s. :laugh:
