I was thinking about dinosaurs, after having watched FOX's hit new series "Terra Nova." It's exactly like Avatar, but there are no blue people and the wild animals mostly look realish and not all crazy colored with like three sets of lips/teeth/fangs.

If you could meet any kind of dinosaur in person ("face to face") which kind would it be? I would like to meet a Brontosaurus. They are HUGE. AND, they eat plants and do NOT eat people.

That also got me thinking about college game day, and how it would be awesome if one of our goat scientists at the Vet school could use the dna from a goat and clone it bones from a Brontosaurus and make like a hybrid goat-a-saur. We we could bring it on the field for gameday and maybe let Corso ride it (I know, I know...we haven't totally agreed on the stadium for the gamday site...just stay with me for a sec...).

What are you guys thinking about?

...almost forgot this one...

I had a dream last night about vampires who could walk around in the day light. That's pretty scary stuff, because you don't have a "safe" time of day. It's not like you can just say "Oh, look it's sunny out, I don't have to worry about vampires." Thinking like that could get you killed, if vampires could really walk around during the day.

This also got me thinking about how if we put the gameday set on the field, then our fans will not be staring straight into the sun during the broadcast, BUT if it's cold they won't feel the sun on their backs because the stands will block out the sun. If we do the gameday broadcast on the front lawn of Anderson, we still get the benefit of not looking directly into the morning sun, BUT we DO get to feel the warmth of the suns rays on our backs.

Obviously, we have to wait for a stormnut update to know whether this is a "real" issue, but that doesn't stop me from thinking about it.

I really don't have very many hoodies. I DO like some of the ones that _Fan had out there with the "EMAW" on them, however.

That reminds me, when did stormnut promise to have a college gameday forecast for us? I'll bet you that the weather will be perfect for a hoodie that day! Let's just all cross our fingers and hope for NO rain, because that would really screw up my sign plans for game day.

I had a dream about the Texas game lastnight. FWIW we won 43-10 and the "WE OWN TEXAS" chant was piercing in DKR.

Could be a good sign.

Saturday is my birthday so I would really like as much attention on me as possible, and not some shitty football game. Unbelievable what some people find important nowadays.

Hiking. Will be a lovely weekend to get away from football for a change.

I was wondering if Corso was going to fake everyone out by wearing a stage coach hat and then throw it into the crowd before putting on the willie head or if he'd just put the willie head on. I was also wondering what the inside of the willie head smelled like and how much better it would smell, if you could quantify smells, after Lee wears it.

i've been thinking about my tax refund and what i'm going to do with the money. i filed an extension back in march and monday was the deadline to have them done. anyway, i had just put off doing them because i'm lazy and then i finally got around to it on sunday and boom... huge refund. anyway, pretty much just thinking about that and gameday and where they're going to have gameday and whether i'll go or not and what kind of whacky gameday signs and chants people with make and do.

Need to get a warm coat. Been thinking about wool, but don't want one of the traditional navy type pea coats. Want something that warm, but something more contemporary that can fit a casual cats basketball game, or a business meeting in a tie.

Shits tough, though. I mean, where do I even start? Google just keeps coming up with the ones I don't want.

My grandma turns 90 on Saturday. I'll be thinking about the great times we've spent together, like that time she gave it too much gas and spun around 180 degrees, or that time I accidentally shot her in the back of the head with a BB gun. I'll also be talking to my relatives flying in about how they need to watch ESPN GameDay next weekend.

wow, fantastic idea.

Really got me thinking about how loads of people who are cats fans, but live out of state, may not know that gameday is coming next week. We really need to get the word out.

Half the fam (flying in) went to Notre Dame and the other half went to Michigan, so this season I can be all like

There are a couple threads I think, but it might help if we pin some of them and put a ! icon by them so everyone knows it's what we should be focusing on.
I was also thinking about trying to get some goat meat, while I'm in the area for gameday. Does the facility have a store? If not, they should, kind of like Russel Stovers, but with a rotating goat that rotates when the store is open.

I was thinking saturday around 11 would be a great time to rake my leaves. Weather should be nice and I for sure want my yard looking better than the neighbors.

Question, If somehow a catastrophic event occurs and Texas beats us, do they rush the field and tear down the goalposts? I say yes.

does anybody know why they call the show that's coming to mhk next week "college gameday"? i was just thinking about that and it just seemed to be a weird name to me.
