Good to see you, wally!

[Pelado]

wally! How the heck are you, man?

I am not happy that the utes are going to a second rose bowl in two years, but it is nice that so many of our old ute posters have decided to drop by.

A wally sighting? Let's talk volleyball!

He may be more of a women’s basketball fan this year.

Today I arrive at the Brimley/Cocoon line, a date in which you are the same age as Wilfred was the day Cocoon, where he played a guy in his late 70s or early 80s, was released in theaters.

It's a fun follow on Twitter @brimleyline

Happy birthday!

HBD, Cop! Consider how you'll feel when, like me, you're old enough to be Cocoon Brimley's father.

[Copelius]

Thanks. Not a birthday, per se, but a fun milestone. PAC, we'll have a celebration when you reach the double BC line.

My brother and his family are going on a cruise to Mexico for Christmas. Months ago, he asked if I would take them to the airport for their trip, leaving at 5 am this morning. A friend came to town and stayed with them last night, so I wasn't sure if they still needed the ride, but I didn't think to ask about it until I texted him at about 1 am. When my alarm went off at 4:45, he hadn't responded to the text, so I called, but he didn't answer.

So I went over to his place, calling a couple more times along the way (also unanswered), arriving a little after 5 am. When I pulled up in front of their house, my sister-in-law was outside and did not look ready to go. The house was dark. She asked me why I was there. I inquired if they no longer needed me to give them a ride to the airport. She answered that they do need a ride, but that the flight is tomorrow.

I laughed. Sorry, baldy.

That reads like an episode of Seinfeld.

That is funny. Two questions:

1) How far away does your brother live
2) What tf was your SIL doing outside at 5am in the winter?

2) What tf was your SIL doing outside at 5am in the winter?

thank you for asking that question.

i thought it might be that he was calling and texting his brother so she was waiting for him. but even if that's the case it's funny that the wife went out to meet him and not the brother.

I think she might have been starting their car to let it warm up before she goes to work.

I think she might have been starting their car to let it warm up before she goes to work.

You didn't ask? My first question after "tomorrow" would be, "What on earth are you doing outside this time of day?" unless she had a dog in tow.
