NASA talk live blog

live blogging from Brookhaven where a former astronaut is going to talk.

Walked in and first person I see is my lab partner who sprints up to me and says, "holy shit, I am high as fuck.". Love community college.

R.I.P.

This weekend ought to be a defining moment for Texas Aggie football and thus, for the future of Texas A&M.  If Texas Tech comes to Kyle field and puts up a 50 spot and the Aggies don't happen to score 51, then there will be trouble for our favorite university.  I almost wish the game was not televised nationally, but hopefully, since it is an 11am kickoff, many of our potential recruits will still be asleep.

Look for the Aggies to be resting in peace come halftime when Tech lights up the scoreboard for at least 28 first half points to our 3.  

Oh well, maybe next year is the year!  

Prediction:  Tech 57, Ags 37
The good news is the Ags cover the 21 point spread.  
Gig 'em

P.S.  Watch, because of this post, A&M pulls off the upset.

Top 5 Things Tha Make Me Happy


1. The whiney, bitchy, selfish, cancer of a teammate, Mark Teixeira losing in the first round of the playoffs. Now he and Scott Boras have more time to figure out what team they'll rape for tens of millions this winter. Thankfully it won't be the Rangers.


2 - 5. Can't think of anything else.
