  1. When Brian got home from work this morning he was asking me if I knew what today was and I said nope. He then reminded me that today was supposed to be opening day.
  2. I know what you mean Tex. The 4 styles the girls picked out would be reuseable as they are fairly simple, but elegant.
  3. I was looking at pictures of bridesmaid dresses to send to my FSIL downstate so she can see if she likes one better than the other and I ended up at this site: Some really ugly bridesmaid (and a few wedding) dresses...
  4. That is weird - I didn't see that part.
  5. Yeah, that one does creep me out.
  6. I gotta agree with eye here. I didn't have a ton of friends before I met Brain (mostly people I worked with as well as a few others). Now I am good friends with his friends' wives/fiancee. That's just weird though (referring to the stuff after the 3 or 4th post lol).
  7. The rules in most organized high school sport is no jewelry and coaches (at least coaches worth their salt) explain to student athletes that anything not of the uniform is considered jewerly. (At least with the IHSA IL it is.) They knew the rules as I am sure it wasn't their first race. Judges don't have time to go through crowds of runners (I remember being at several races were there were more than a 1000 runners) before a race, but when they are entering the chute single file, a yellow band around the wrist is going to stick out.
  8. I am curious why they went to Vegas then. I'll be honest, neither Brian or I care too much about going to Vegas, it's not our style, but if you are going to have your wedding in Vegas, is that sort of stuff expected?
  9. For us, before the races started, the coach would make sure we were all wearing the same basic uniform (shorts and jersey) and no one had jewelry on (always one or two trying to run with earrings, watches etc and he would take them and hold them during the race). I don't think IHSA (IL) has a rule that socks, undershirts and leggings has to match for the whole team though.
  10. I can understand where they are coming from. Jewelry isn't allow because serious injuries can and do occur. I used to run X-country in HS and I remember several people (in practice, not an actual race) hurt themselves because the jewelry got caught on something while they run. I realize it is hard to imagine, but even a braclet can become entangled. Do I think they should have come down on them, no. They should have asked them to remove it before the race (will 15 minutes without cause that much problems) and then if the student didn't, disqualify them. And no, watches are not allowed to be worn during the race for many reasons, at least not by IHSA rules (maybe in VA they can, but not in IL), unless those have been changed recently.
  11. The Bears have had a strong defensive for a few years now. Their problem is finding a QB that has a clue. And they need an offensive line that can stop the opposing defense. Every now and then the offense rocked, but even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.
  12. For the packers to start winning again, they need to get guys that aren't going to fumble every other play, players that can catch, a defensive coordinator that has a clue and start working on finding a new QB. Sorry, but Farve really needs to entertain the idea of hanging up his cleats.
  13. I felt bad for Brainage. He's a big Packer fan. I could tell he was fed up when he was screaming at the TV to sit Farve and to fire the defensive coordinator. lol

    Comcast

    That's who I have. I just hope they have the Sox games next year. We had comcast and they are a bunch of crooks (or at least act like a bunch of crooks).
  15. That person does look like a female, don't they?
  16. I started out at Community College and went on to UIC for my bachelors. It helped me a great deal because those first two years were on scholarship so it kept my student loans down.

    John Belushi

    It was between Blues Brothers and Animal House for me and I went with BB.
  18. I went to Daley Community College back in Sept 1994 - May 1996 and then went to UIC. That doesn't count the Daley course I took while in HS.
  19. And you can't prove he did, what's your point?
