Here is the obligatory weather satellite imagery (the image updates automatically):
I'm probably the only person who looks at this, but oh well I'm still gonna post the image in every game thread this year.

The weather is looking awesome for Saturday, mid 70's and partly cloudy. We are due for an all day deluge...I hope it happens against Pitt since that game is an early kick.

Re: Duke vs GT, 9/14 3:30 kick--Menu & Attendance Thread
Don't waste your time and/or money with any Italian beers. They might have a couple good ones like the bock/double bock style Peroni or Moretti but I have been unimpressed with their efforts dating back to our trip there in 2004. Probably even earlier. They do a far better job with wines.August West wrote:Party of one. Beers to share, taste, trade. Maybe I'll head over to TW and see if they have any beers from Italy in keeping with our theme this week. Another case of water. Maybe it will last a little longer than it did at the NCCU game. That case was gone before the game started. I don't mind though, less to carry back to the car. AW.

It was so good to see everyone today. The food was wonderful. The company even better.

It was good to be able to connect via technology to say hi to everyone.
Too bad my internet is so bad that LG and I could not connect the call for the first few attempts.
I finally switched to cellular, but the call we finally made used up a pretty good chunk of my data plan for the month, so maybe this is not so practical going forward.

We had an incredible time yesterday.. the food was amazing and the food was incredible as always! I know Craw (Shane) and Myriah likewise had an incredible time and I appreciate everyone indulging my disdain for the VT kicker
Awhom it was great seeing you if only briefly on LG's phone!

Considering you were just in my area and made no arrangements, I would say the fault lies completely with you.devildeac wrote:Wait!
