I'll be saving it for ~midnight my time. I'll be up anyways. Don't know if I can slow my posting enough though. It's going to be a long 3 days.
Did you all hear about Sweet tea? Check out the lounge for further info. I don't want to spill the beans on her. Congrats Sweet tea!

Congrats Sweet Tea 🙂.
 
I am now no longer ethanolopenic.

Congrats ST and Stitch. Hope the match works for you.
 
So, now that the Lack-10 has finally won 1 bowl game, is everyone in agreement that they really aren't the best conference in the nation?

ST and Stitch have been together for a while (years from what I know). No reason to think it's not!!

Well I knew nothing of it. Or them. Hence the question.
 
But now that I know...
 
Congrats to ST and Stitch!

Did someone really think that? year in year out the best football conferences are:

1) SEC (I am an ACC fan but i think it is tough to argue the ACC is better)
2) ACC
3) Big 11 (Old fashioned football but usually weak in the middle, not so much this yr)
4) Pac-10
 
+pad+ ...not much else to say today. Has been very uneventful. I guess that's the reason the parents like the area.

I think he is implying the Big 10 with 11 members. Because everyone knows Yankees can't count.

Ah, I see. I thought he was leaving someone out of the Big 12 (which I am fine with as long as it is Kansas).
 
Still bored here....will be back to my place tomorrow though. Probably lots more excitement there.
 
socute for the hardcore southerners anything above the mason dixon makes u a yankee.. ProfessorFetus (formerly MrsFetus changed for BKN) moved from Indiana to charleston, SC and was called "a damned yankee".

Hence since 2 schools are in Indiana.
 
I was born in Indiana, but only lived there 6 months. My family is a bunch of damned Yankees.
And yes, everything north of the Mason Dixon line is Yankee.

As a Yankee by birth (...sigh...we can't ALL be born in God's country) I maintain that "Yankee" applies to the northeast. Just because Southerners think it's Yankee doesn't mean they are right!!!

I cant say i disagree just pointing it out!
 
...so I was right about a lot more excitement back at my place!!
 
Oh and hope you all had a good new years eve party if you weren't working...
 
Ahhh...the world of wireless again!!! I love it!!!!!!!
 
I really didn't get that many posts in over the break, so I'm trying to make up for lost time.
 
And about the whole yankee thing, I have no clue what the argument is even about...what a sheltered life I lead!!!
 
Oh ya...and no drunk paddage for me tonight. I was a good girl...😉
 
So what do you all have to say now Todd?
 
Good thing all I was planning on doing tomorrow (today) was cleaning and grocery shopping.

what a southerner considers to be 'yankee' is directly proportional to the latitude of the birthplace/hometown of said southerner. for instance, missouri, kentucky and virginia are south of the mason dixon, but i think of them as 'yankee' states. despite being from a gulf coast state, i have been accused of being a 'yankee' because i was raised in the northern part of the state.
 
Happy New Year!!
 
Cleaning the apartment today...will feel really good when it's done (putting away all the stuff I had at my parents' house)

I grew up in miami and even though we are further south than anyone else I would even have to say that miami is not part of the "real south".
