Well, I was there. I thought it was a little gay the first time, but now I’ve embraced it. It’s definitely campy, but you throw in some loud “Let’s Go Pitt!”s and there’s something to it.
it seems like i knew about it but wasn’t it out a while ago. i never did see it but maybe would like to see it on video. though i don’t know, i bawled myself fairly sick at that one.
i guesssss..... now that i know that neil diamond wrote that for caroline kennedy, it’s not quite the same. it conjures up pix of that wrinkly harpy.
Got 6?
Entering the Red Zone.
Nice looking town.
Vanderbilt won big tonight too and, best of all, we get free tacos since they scored more than 24 points! We brought kiddos with us who had never been to one of their games so they had great fun. We did all versions of the wave there at the end.
We sing that at hockey games too. Without the Pitt part, of course.
non sequitur much? LOL!!
egads! the mental image on a Sunday morning before church even.
so Van Jones has resigned.........go Glenn!
I just got back from mass, walked into the kitchen and turned on Fox News-and was greeted by the happy news that Van Jones has indeed been thrown under the bus-and what an incredibly delusional and nasty resignation speech he gave, too. Now Fox/Glenn Beck needs to go after the other Marxist czars one by one, so they can follow Jones...
Glenn Beck may get under their skin but I don’t care as long as he is effective.
He was certainly effective-I hope he keeps it up. Howard “the scream” Dean was on the Matthews show on Fox trying to cover for Jones, and saying it is right for him to play the blame game-pretty hard to do when all the crazy, racist s*** he spewed is on video. And I can’t imagine any lawyer signing a petition they didn’t read, especially something to do with a wacko conspiracy theory-stuff like that tends to come back to bite you in the ass when you least expect it.
Hooray for Jimbo!
Don’t you like my snapshots? I thought the cityscape one was pretty awesome. I also snapped the Incline.
I believe there will be a group from Tennessee there in a few days.
i thought you lifted pix from the internet and were posting them which is why i said non sequitur!, i didn’t know you took them! LMAO!!!
