Things were different back then. None of us were married. A few of us had jobs (not me), but none of us had meaningful ones. We drank Milwaukee's Best. Pi Lam had a fraternity house. Most of us went back for Homecoming every year. And Rob and I were about to co-rent a place in Arlington, Virginia with our friend the Spoid, and that would change our lives' pathways forever.
Oh, and back then we called Rob "Squirrel."
Here's to the old days. Enjoy your weekends. I'll be headed to Williamsburg.
i've lost a few pounds since then
ReplyDeletestill have a shiny coat and a bushy tail, though
ReplyDeleteAnd a little football?
ReplyDeletegot confirmation that our man weenie's bid was accepted, so next weekend i'll make my way to orange to take possession of a sporty mini cooper convertible. just in time for winter. nice.
ReplyDeleteHeat on, windows up, top down. You’ll be fine above 39 degrees.
ReplyDeleteShriner parade from Orange to Leesburg!
ReplyDeletethis post is in a weird tense. past pluperfect?
ReplyDeletealso, someone obviously stole rob's identity and claimed he bought a convertible mini cooper. hysterical. especially after the zman "what car" series. brilliant satire.
ReplyDeletedave, already jealous of my evolutionarily perfect physique, now piqued that i've found the perfect conveyance for that body. typical.
ReplyDeletefucking mesomorphs.
ReplyDeleteDave has weenie looking for an IROC right now.
ReplyDeleteComing to you live from the College Delly
ReplyDeletefound out this afternoon that my colleague who's fighting breast cancer is paying $25k/month for her medication. that's fucking obscene. she makes a very good living and is worried about being bankrupted. i can't even imagine what that's like for people without means. obscene.
ReplyDeleteJesus. System is upside down.
ReplyDeleteMy dad is (knock on wood) a recent survivor of stage 4 lung cancer which, make no mistake, was otherwise a death sentence. Thank god for immunotherapy. It goes for 14k a dose. He rolled the dice that insurance would pay for it and it did somewhat, but if it didn’t he would have taken care of it himself. Billions of other humans could not have. It seems crazy that this miracle is reserved for the very lucky or very wealthy.
ReplyDeleteWho knew healthcare would be so difficult?
ReplyDeleteI blame the patent lawyers.
ReplyDeleteAre sneakers the Dutch tulips of the early -21st century? Have we reached peak sneaker ridiculousness?

Kawhi Is showing he’s the best player on the court during Celts-Raptors. Not an easy task, with Kyrie, Hayward, Tatum and Lowry out there. Makes the East more fun if Toronto is a legit rival to Boston.
