Beware the Second of March, Redux

“You have to be odd to be number one.” -- Theodore Seuss Geisel

I don't know if Dave's number one, but he's got one of the prerequisites. Somehow, we managed to skip our annual celebration of the good Doctor and the good Dave the past few years. Won't happen again, not on my watch. Happy Birthday to the Davest of the Daves.

  5. Happy birthday Dave.

    It was always a little rough in the Burg. When I delivered for Paul's I was fortunate enough to visit a number of trailer parks, including the one behind Bob Evans where people liked to practice shooting at all the signs in the park. The only time I've ever had a gun in my face was in Paul's--Basil, the cook with the leather Dallas Cowboys hat, and I used to like to break each other's balls and I guess I crossed a line one time because he pulled his revolver on me.

  7. I suppose it's good that this thread has been revived so we all know not to fuck with Basil. I've been avoiding cilantro for years, and now I learn this.

  13. your tribe seems pretty locked into the sixth seed in the caa tournament with a win tomorrow against hampton. sixth is better than seventh because it means a game against nc a&t versus one of the muddled middle.

  14. secretary rubio says we attacked iran, “proactively, in a defensive way”. george orwell could not be reached for comment.

  15. your tribe beats hampton, 94-85, to finish the season 19-11, 10-8 in the league. as the sixth seed, w&m plays 11th-seeded elon. as it happens, the phoenix beat the tribe twice by identical three-point margins. three wins on the trot for the good guys, so at least they're playing good ball at the right time. tip is at 8:30 pm on saturday, just in time for a collective of drunken w&m alums to be well lubricated.
