    Wonderful Tuesday Morning SBR

    - Day Two Catchup

    Morning guys. It's a very tired morning here! Since I am running the oldest to school this morning, it's definitely time to plan an extra stop at the coffee house down the road

    Time today to finish catching up on everything that I didn't get done yesterday and is left over from the weekend of working but not working under the usual circumstances - if you can follow that lol not to mention the mountain of laundry, the unpacking of the children, the ball games, etc.

    I will add some perkyness later to the thread for you somewhere in here, but right now my eyes are barely open

    Also, best wishes to SBR Chris in future endeavors!

    and... 36 pages into Conquering Risk and I am not lost or confused yet (very proud of myself for this usually by now I would be bored and stop reading or my eyes would glaze over and nothing would be absorbed)

    So, what's your favorite NFL and College FB teams and a) do you ever bet against them or b) do you just not bet when you think they are going to lose or C) even thought they are your fav team it's still money on the line....

    good morning

    I often emotionally hedge bet against my favorite teams, even if I think it is very -ev

    that way I don't feel as down when they lose...

    Good Morning archie!!

    That's not a bad idea, way to make it easier to suck up the loss

    So who are your fav teams?

    Me too. Sleepy as all get out, stiff this morning for no reason, and still can't fit into my own damn shoes. Alan I think is tired of me wearing his


    Although, a little humor for you this morning. When a new user signs up here they get a welcome message from me, Alan was welcomed as Mr. Blondie by Blondie this morning. (If only I could have written a special one just for that)

    What would that entail? Shitty Wednesday Morning SBR?

    I would be he has already left for the day to go over to Effingham and do some stuff. I am sure he will be around though

    Since I don't think he gets to have points (isn't it only one account per household that can?) I am conceding and letting him tell me what to wager the free plays that have been sitting in my account on (doesn't mean I will always listen to him but what wife always listens to her husband...) He seemed ok with that although we haven't discussed the fact of what happens if they win

    Todays potential winner is a parlay

    good morning, Blondie!!

    It was great meeting you and Alan this weekend! I had a great time at the bash but it's going to take these old bones a few days to recover from the weekend of shenanigans

    Asking me about baseball is like asking the average guy what childbirth feels like

    Alas, I am partial to the sucky Illinois teams for the same reason, however, due to being accepted w/ full ride and being too young and stupid to take it I have a love for Ohio State as well.

    I detest NBA, I find it highly overrated, nothing at all like when I was growing up. So, whomever will make me money is my favorite of the day.

    It was great meeting you as well Jake! I must say you are the poster that surprised me the most on what you think people are going to look like and what they do! I had you pictured as more like Bigday! It's not a bad thing at all though, so please don't take it that way!

    Depending on the time of day, the circumstances, and amount of sleep I had the night before angry chick might have qualified

    Totals are sometimes safe since you aren't betting on YOUR team to win or lose

    Clarinet, some piano (self taught) and singing (again not so much anymore)

    My daughter is teaching me to play the french horn and melophone (sp?) and I can half ass play the alto sax (son taught me) other daughter plays clarinet so I am usually teaching her lol

    Having them teach me was the easiest way I could think of to get them to practice
