Like this? http://youtu.be/xkXF8gbowwc SoundMan, will you be setting this up again this year? I wish I could see it live, but you're a bit too far away...

Bing Crosby and David Bowie - together.

Rap / Hip-Hop isn't my thing, but the only real problem I have with it is the emphasis on "UNT" and "Eagles". It isn't until it's almost over that they use "Mean Green" and "North Texas". I believe RV is right to focus the branding on "North Texas" and "Mean Green" (and that's the way I've always thought of us since I started as a student in 1979) - but we are a bit schizophrenic. The administration uses UNT almost exclusively, and the fight song break is U-N-T Eagles.

I'm old-school. There will never be a movie worse than Manos: The Hands of Fate. Made by a fertilizer salesman from El Paso (not San Antonio). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060666/?ref_=fn_al_tt_4 Budget: $19,000 (estimated) The only cast members who were paid for their performances were Jackey Neyman, who got a bicycle, and the Doberman, which got a bag of dog food. The rest of the cast was supposed to receive a cut of the movie's profits, which never materialized. Director Harold P. Warren also gave the crew shares, instead of a salary. The entire film was shot with a hand-held camera that could only record 32 seconds of film at a time. It was also shot without sound; all the lines were dubbed later by two men and one woman. Jackey Neyman cried when she first heard her dubbed voice. The film had a gala premiere in El Paso. Many local dignitaries attended. Members of the audience began heckling the film during the premiere. Many of the film's cast and crew sneaked out of the theater before the film ended, to avoid having to admit being part of it.

or... Does Work Affect your GMG.com Productivity? I put "Somewhat, but I mostly keep it in moderation", since if it really gets busy, I won't have time to look at gmg at all, and it doesn't affect me at all. But... then there are the slow days, and it might as well be "My employer should either block me from gmg.com or fire me now". Today is pretty slow...

(I hope not!)

I have DISH. My DVR schedule shows the next episode to be on Thurs 11/21 at 4pm.

Great!

If anyone from the NT Daily is reading this thread: Sarge winning the award should have been a story of its own.

Fighting fires?

Jamario was at the MUTS game, in section 105. FFR talked with him, so hopefully he'll tell us what Jamario has been up to.

Well, rats - I should have posted after last week's game: "Meet the new Scrappy... Same as the old Scrappy" Actually, it's about time - I noticed last year at the pep rally the night before the UH game that Scrappy was "molting" pretty badly.

Only if we play Bacon(e) College, like UTSA did. Does KFC have anything on the menu with bacon? Maybe that's why they sold so many tickets!

Spencer's son, I presume?

The Astrodome proposal was also voted down in Harris county 53% - 47%. People don't want more spending right now - even if they're told there won't be a tax increase, as in the case in Katy.

Was it tomorrow, or will it be yesterday? http://lyrics.wikia.com/Hellhammer:Horus/Aggressor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalyptic_Raids

RV's costume last Saturday was pretty lame. Was he trying to be a ref? He should leave that to Scrappy. Refs don't wear sweater vests.

Buddy Hackett - that's EXACTLY who I thought he looked like! Yes, I saw that! Sat down with my cup of cofee this mornng saying to myself that I would only watch "The Stand", and ended up watching pretty much the whole game, with only a little fast-forwarding.

No, Mac(k) truck is correct. Until Peterbilt becomes a sponsor...

Be glad you weren't around for the 2005 game. I want revenge for that one, now that we've gotten our revenge on Rice!

THE STAND, as in the epic Stephen King novel. Who's the GIMP expert? I'd love for him/her to take a photo of our defense, and superimpose it over (or under) a green version of this (eliminating Stephen King, of course - sorry, Stephen).

Next time, order the frozen lemonade!
