[sigh] they took out Colt.

we will most likely lose, and i admit that with pride, b/c we made it to the game in the first place.

i will not succumb to smoking to soothe my pain.

[we quit on monday]

need to just go and practice my lesson and turn off the volume. :(

You'll be proud of us Steve. Last cig for both of us was at lunch on Monday. It's been much easier with both of us quitting at the same time. The last time I quit she was still smoking, and that didn't work very well.:help

Back to the Mando, I love this little girl. The only thing I don't like is the tuners. She's hard to tune and she doesn't hold her tune very well. So I ordered a set of these tonight to upgrade her:

Hopefully that will solve the problem.
 
Cool! Congrats on the Mando. I do want one sometime. At our jam the other night, one of the mando players had a heck of a time with his tuning. Seemed to change every few minutes. I hope yours settles down. They look like fun to play.

BTW, CB's pain just eased a bit I see. :AOK (touchdown pass, back up QB to Shipley).

Congrats on quitting too! Keep it up! :happy

Best of luck with both the Mando and the lack-o'-smoking! Just think, you'd be able to afford to buy me a Jet City combo! And that's just January's savings!

LOL!! Look at that, Shiner, your own wife mucking up your Mando thread with OT UT talk. :poke

Man, that Ingram looks impressive. UT defense seems to be doing a decent job though. Sweet scoring play by your back up QB and Shipley though! Nice!

EDIT: Tough sack and fumble. HOLD ON!
 
dang...

my team is playing with heart, even shiner is watching now [and he hates tx] [or is at least ambivalent]

what a game...

I luvs ya' marnold, but the extra money is going to my daughter's wedding in August.:thwap I'm still hopeful we can squeez in an Island at some point this year, but I'm not holding my breath.:cry:

Uh oh, looks like Texas couldn't pull it out. But I'm still impressed that the young second string QB did as well as he did. I would have not have put money on that. Give it a year or two and they may just pull it out.

Now . . . as for Baylor . . . :cry:
 
dang... i had this whole line of jokes lined up for tx stemming the red tide. :thwap :D :rolleyes:

owell. i wish the game could have been played with Colt, to see what we actually could have accomplished. but i accept what happened and look forward to next season.

GO LONGHORNS!!!:happy :beer: :rockon:
 
Tough loss there CB! The back-up played pretty good once he got the jitters out of his system.

Y'all's (OMG, look at that spelling, ahaha) tears will just be getting dry by the time my IGGLES get done putting a beat-down on MR. Jessica Simpson.

Last week was nuttin' but a play off the ALI rope-a-dope against Foreman. (at least, that is what I keep telling myself :french )
 
The good news for Texas fans is that they obviously have a capable replacement for Colt McCoy (best name for a UT QB ever).
 
Nice mandolin. Whats the tuning on a mandolin btw are the strings tuned in 5ths or 6ths?
 
:) thanks guys, for the encouraging words... to both the smoking and the game.

it is a sweet mando, and she intrigues me. something different to experiment with/learn.
 
Thanks for the kind words y'all. Stew mac shipped out the new tuners today, although they shipped the gold rather than the nickle I ordered.:thwap It's ok, I'll see how they look before I decide whether to mess with sending them back.

MUDDY, ya' old fart. Been missin' you brother. Glad to see you around.

:applause :happy :applause :dude

So maybe the great Tejas deep freeze is a cosmic conspiracy to help you guys out. It's too damn cold to run out for more! (assuming of course you got rid of what ever was in the house)

Sorry 'bout the horns CB. Not a fan of the Team, but love the town.
 
Cool mando there Shiners. :applause :applause

You two be tough and beat that nasty smoking thing.
Good on ya!!!! :AOK :AOK
