    Didn't even know about the band. For my tastes, the 50's, 60's, or to a greater extent 70's, was the best music. My ipod has some "new country" but that is the only thing newer than the 70's.

    I tend to pull a lot of passwords out of my......... :shock: past. What did you think I was going to say. :wink: Junior Samples used car lot is something I just can't get out of my head. Maybe if I didn't see on a daily basis a few people that made Junior's character look like a rocket scientist... :?

    LOL! You have to be kidding, Tom. Junior's character was about as far from a rocket scientist as you could get. I've watched Rick's youtube video above a few times. I've laughed hard every time.

    Come visit North Williamson County Texas for a few days. We have characters like: The man who put his 12 year old son on top of a matress in a short bed pickup to hold it down. When he topped 55 mph, the kid got the magic carpet ride of his life... almost his death.

    That is one of the top home grown Mensa prospects in our area.

    I see that gipdog is in you have to select "view the complete standings" to see all 14 members who are in the contest.

    Most interesting team name? Apple Baskets by Aquila. Doesn't he know that it was Peach Baskets that Dr. Naismith used when he invented basketball in 1891. :)


    Most interesting team owner. HemoMiricale...so Mike what's that about?

    You're right. My fault. I like the way Apple Baskets sounds better anyway so I'll just keep it.

    What do you want to bet that Apple growers and Peach growers in 1891 probably used the same basket! Probably still do. :D :D

    I tried

    <t>to enter my pics. After the first bracket (East), the subsequent brackets load blank pages and I am not able to enter my pics.<br/>
    <br/>
    <br/>
    I've dumped cache, cookies and authenticated sessions. Nada. I did a system flush.. Nada.. Maybe its yahoo, but I will try a different OS in the morning to see if its a Mac thing.</t>

    Don't know what is happening to you Corey. I entered my picks with no problem. I'm sure that I will change a few but they are all in right now. Anyone else having a problem???
