OMG - I am cracking up here!! When my sister in law first moved to Austin, he new boss was having her print out some flyers for a big shindig he was having. Since he was a HUGE UT fan, he told her to make them Burnt Orange. She went to get the flyers printed -- all 5000 of them -- they were out of orange, so she figured red was the next best thing. You would have thought the world came to an end when she brought those puppies back to her boss. LOL!!!!

Yeah, but don't they tell you who won the debate or something? I think you should have! What did you tell them that was good?
Man! It's really coming down to the wire now, isn't it!
