Sink, you slay me!

Oooh. Good thought. Still think the key is to have Alabama folks participate along side of Auburn folks and especially if it's a high level Bama person. Al, who named his kids Crimson and Bear and who had never attended the school, will go as berserk if he is forced to watch that.

BTW:

A Facebook page started by Alabama graduates, called Tide for Toomer's, solicited donations for the damaged trees. By late Friday afternoon more than 21,000 people had joined.

But he'd probably gouged his eyes out. I looked up pics. I'm not posting pics. I'll post this instead, get my drift...

+1. Sabin should be the one to replant the trees.... wearing a houndstooth hat with a note that says, "Al is a douche" tucked in the hatband.

Now THERE was a cash cow.

Not only was it a cash cow, it was a great lifestyle, and didnt hurt the company.

How could it not hurt the company. I did it all the time. Bid a moveup the first two weeks and then two weeks of reserve. Fly your time the first two weeks and the company could hardly use you on your reserve days. My personal favorite was to downbid to a week of reserve that had 7 x days. You would get 16:40 minutes pay for doing nothing!
