Clash of the Titans
That sonic boom you just heard was Terrence Cody (380 lb, Noseguard) jumping into the air (yes, jumping) and slamming into Andre Smith (340 lb, OL) in joyous celebration when they heard that Ethel is coming back to New River, AZ tonight.
(Tell me that THAT collision didn't measure on the Richter scale :)
Yep, Terrence is all worked up ("Coach, I need groceries!") to find out that, after having left me all alone for four days while sampling the fleshpots of Egypt (well, Charlotte, NC), Ethel is finally going to actually return to the place where she gets mail and keeps her Cocker Spaniel (fact is, I don't think that Lucy doesn't remember who Ethel is anymore. I suppose that that might really hurt Ethel's feelings; probably the best thing for both of them would be for me to hurry up and take Lucy to the pound before Ethel gets home and finds out that she's been forgotten. Best for all concerned, I'm sure)
(We can't really say that Ethel is "coming home" since Ethel left for a week in Salt Lick Silly in July, and then a week in Indiana in August, and now she's been gallivanting across the country again. It sorta reminds me of the old Temptations song "Ethel Was A Rollin' Stone")
This picture comes to you from AL.com via Roll Bama Roll - I've been watching these sites really closely, as through some strange twist of fate, the Alabama Crimson Tide is currently 4-0, and ranked 8th nationally. This is, of course, just a hiccup, a peculiar bobble in space-time, since it's only Year Two of the reign of St. Nick of Saban, and it should be several more years before we're ready to make ourselves known. However, don't worry about the stars in their courses or any possible disruption of quantum mechanics - I'm quite sure that the universe will right itself this weekend, when 'Bama goes to Jawja and gets clobbered by the Number 3 Bulldogs. I just hope that Uga doesn't go out onto the field after the game to start dining on the corpses of our starting lineup.
The game is supposed to be televised at 4:45 local time, which is 75 hours from now. I reckon that that's long enough for JetSet Ethel to land, make an entrance, unpack, do laundry, come up with some sort of crisis that has to be handled elsewhere, get tickets, and leave again.
I hope that, in the meantime, she doesn't waste any time looking for her dog.
Some black woman in Alabama calls Terrence "Her little baby boy."
I can spot three dicrepancies in that sentence:
1; little. He is not.
2; baby. He is not.
3; boy. He is more along the lines of "humpback whale" than "boy."

You're 6'2" (or maybe 3"?) yourself, but you are still your mama's baby boy.

To quote a character in Kelly's Heroes, "Your killing me with these negative vibes, man". I only hope that you knocked on wood when you wrote those diabolical lines concerning UGA's post game dining. To quote Eli Gold during the post game wrap-up after the Clemson game, "God is back in his heaven and all's right with the world, again". With this in mind - I believe, I believe, I believe. Talk to you after Georgia has been vanquished.

Silence, infidel.
"Hubris, ate" - or, as it says in Proverbs, "Pride goeth before the fall".
I have very little hope that we can beat Georgia. If I may speak boldly, I hope that we are able to give a good accounting of of ourselves, but that's about the best that we can hope for.
You, sir, are woofing.

It is the sole function of the fan to "Woof" and I do it proudly. Having seen the dogs in action aganist Arizona State I came to the conclusioon that they ain't all they're cracked up to be. Saturday night at 6:45pm CST they will play a team from the conference that has 5 teams in the top ten. God help them 'cause St Nick won't. RTR

Dear Lord God in Heaven and all of his attendant Saints (especially those involved in SEC Football to whatever extent);
Please have mercy on us, and do not hold the rest of us responsible for this one errant fan's woofing. He can't help it, having not learned the ways of humility and patience that the rest of us have been forced to walk.
Amen and amen.

Third: Even Vlatko is getting a kick out of this!
BTW Vlatko, this is Fat charlie's site, and no he's not fat, and no his names not Charlie, and now that I think about it, my name's not Floyd either....
