You can get you shins kicked for saying something like that - I know there is at least one more Giants fan 'round here.

I am glad the Giants ruined the Cowboy's 'house warming party'. :))

That stadium is insane.
Me, too! I'm not a Giants fan - just a non-Cowboys fan.

I'm heading to Mom and Dad's to help Dad cut and pile some firewood (he's too old now to do it by himself but doesn't seem to get that so I have to go and literally take the chainsaw out of his hands) and the relatives I stay with in Scotland are here (visiting a Great Aunt who has just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer) so they will be at Mom and Dad's tomorrow before they fly back home (living ten minutes from the airport makes it extra easy for relatives to drop by!). I won't have any web access while I'm gone but will be back on the interwebs Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. Enjoy PWing while I'm gone and please don't go nuts and leave me with twenty pages to read through in this thread when I return ;)
Safe travels colchar. Also sending some vibes to your Great Aunt and the rest of the family.
Vibes from Kansas also. Be safe with the chainsaw.

Heck, they are going to need a pretty large stadium when they become their own country! I mean, the United States has Wallace Wade. They have to compete. :D :D :P

Speaking of Carolina blue in the towel thread, is there any preference setting where I can change the color I see the boards in? A LOT of these shades are disturbingly close to that other shade of blue.

I've had the same thought. I've still yet to hit on a color scheme/layout I really like.

I'm "celebrating" Atlanta's Great Inundation of '09 by preparing the season's first pot of chili.
Always a delight.

Mom just sampled some in a ramekin and proclaimed it very good (though it really needs until about 7:30 before it's ready).

I went apple picking with the boys yesterday. That means, of course, that sometime this week I will be baking an apple pie. It's a shame none of you will be around to taste it.

The chili's a little bit ahead of schedule, and almost ready.
Holy yum. :batman:
