    South Carolina Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier retiring - SEC Blog - ESPN He can play all the golf he wants at Augusta now. After watching him beat LSU 58-3 at LSU I can take some solace in that his last game was there. Heh. Maybe he is going to put his application in at the other USC...

    Bush threw his the month after 9/11 in New York. I'm sure the crowd was more impressed by it being over the plate.

    You would haver to build a platform landing every 30 feet according to OSHA for a caged ladder. They're not going up there carrying anything. Mostly to read instrumentation and look in sight glasses etc... That was the first one I googled. Mainly circule stairs are done on large oil storage...

    Those are pretty impressive. A lot better than the bland and boring shit I do. These were always fun before programs to do them on a computer, with nothing more than pen and paper and a foot and inch adding machine (weighed 30 pounds and looked like an old cash register and had a 100 keys).

    Not sure how it works, but if he doesn't win an appeal I read he loses this year of eligibility, next years when suspended and can return as a Junior. Dunno.

    I've done some stairs with a 12 on 12 pitch, so 45 degree angle. Hard as hell to talk up those becuase you basically have to step sideways on the tread. Limited use stairs tho. Be glad you don't have to dick with circular stairs.

    Just giving you shit. I have no idea what homeowner code is. I do commercial and industrial stairs and handrail by the semi truck load. But a framing square will do 9 on 12 stairs which is the standard without hassle if someone else wants to build them. They also give the cut you need for the...

    You know there's free apps for the phone to get the bevel using a right triangle for free. Doesn't require a math degree lol. Lacking that a framing square will do it as well. Now the real question is did you measure from the toe of the step or the nosing line to meet code?

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Even if it wasn't a "scam" how could they ever produce a game at this point that would balance gameplay with the amount of money people have sunk into the game. People who sink money into a game say they don't like "pay to win", but at this point how could they make it anything but that and not...

    LSU had 624 yards offense. 100 yards passing. (2) 100 yard rushers for the first time since Kevin Faulk played in 1996. All in front of the smallest crowd home or away since Curley Hallman was coach, home or away.

    Fournette read a prepared statement after the game and is auctioning off his game jersey for SC flood relief. I assume that LSU is going to do it for charity.

    If you got nothing to do there's still 60,000 seats available for $40 - $75 each at LSU today. LSU is going to lose their ass off with this deal. They give the gate to South Carolina. Plus they sent the LSU jet to pick the USC team. Plus the money to fix and prepare the field. Now that the AD...

    The LSU game is going to have a number of empty seats tomorrow for a variety of reasons. One is the AD is a dipshit and getting some pushback. Another being everyone plans shit to do on weekends in the fall when LSU is not playing at home, like weddings, hunting etc...The AD called out LSU fans...

    Volkswagen gets busted.

    Before the mandate for Ultra Low Sulfur diesel it was priced about 20-30 center cheaper per gallon than gas. The mileage of vehicles that ran diesel than were much better as well.

    I don't know I'm pretty much done with peeps after competing in cola warrior. Run a few miles, climb a few walls, flip a few tractor tires, chug a 6 pack of soda, eat a couple of boxes of peeps and then shoot. I could go the rest of my life without ever seeing another peep.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    That's why you strip naked and do tick checks if you have female companions with you. That was always the joke when I went to forestry school. Guess it worked, been with the same woman for almost 20 years now. Never did find any ticks but lots of other interesting "stuff" lol.
