To use the word zillion, he must have meant EVERY decision made by every government employee since the founding of the country. I am being a bit of a smart-a on this point but it does raise the point, why would someone that seems so anti-government have spent what I thought was a career in public em...

A little off topic - I will tell you guys I bitched about the government when I was young, when I was middle-aged, hell, when I was old - But now that I am ancient I can honestly say I'm not sure we could make it without Social Security and Medicare - Our government does some things right --- Two o...

:roll: Take it to the politics board. If you think the status quo was working, you're crazy. It just opens the way for new taxes, while now there are no direct taxes on the internet usage that I've noticed. But we will. Personally, I like the way the internet works as it now stands. Please explain ...

I watched bit of the SoCon tourney online. One of our Mountaineers in the final was playing even and in the final 7 seconds lost a point and a potential spot in that weight class. Was that Parisi? I am not sure how it works but the SoCon had more spots assigned than weight classes. I guess every wei...

There is a physics alumna that works at the American Physical Society. Part of her job is to develop profiles on physics majors. The big hitters such as Neil deGrasse Tyson, Steven Chu, Brian Cox and so many more who are famous have been spotlighted. She wanted to also spotlight someone in the less ...

Cool to hear some of the great acts you guys got to see during your time at App. Didn't know legends use to be called HAppys, I like that a lot better than legends. I just recently graduated and I was pretty disappointed with the lack of quality musical acts during my time there. The fact that lege...

I am not sure about Golf but the SB has some ranked tennis as well. We know how ITF went on both sides.

I got tickets for Greensboro in a few days with the Mac. I saw them in 88 without Lindsey in Chapel Hill. In 2004 without Christine McVie. In 2009 they cancelled Greensboro though that would have been without CM as well. I have waited decades to see these 5 on stage at one time. I saw Stevie Nicks b...

I think we have two moving on to the NCAA. A few second place finishers also moved on, but in those weight classes I don't think we had any qualifiers.

I may have made a mistake. I think we are tied for 1st. I think I gave ULL an extra point. Appalachian State 61.5 Louisiana-Lafayette 61.5 Texas State 59.5 Arkansas State 59.5 Texas-Arlington 55.5 South Alabama 51.0 Arkansas-Little Rock 46.0 Georgia State 43.5 Georgia Southern 40.0 Troy 31.0 Louisia...

Except for VMI dropping to the bottom all the teams finished as they did the regular season, with one big question mark. Campbell was 0-7 during the season and did not show for the tourney. Did no one qualify from Campbell and if so what does it take to quality? Do they have a postseason ban? Did th...

Free live video. 157 lb up now as I type this. The announcer just called up Appy State. <Cringe>

We did better than them in Men's XC.

The bottom of the 7th could have been a disaster it looked like on live stats.

I am sure when they use the word alumni they really mean graduate with a diploma of some sort. I generally do that But is not an alumnus/na someone that just took classes at the school. Take one class online and make it official. Take one class for one day and you are an alum. :-) Thanks for the ch...

Nice live stats. Shows base runners. What a novel idea.

I took 268 at North Wilkesboro coming back from Boone back in January. I wanted to drive by and see the train tracks and I was by myself so no one was complaining about the time. I took I-77 at Elkin as it was getting late enough so I just missed this as the track appears to be just off 268. I turne...

I don't follow NASCAR but one knows names having lived in North Carolina for my whole life. We went to Boone this past weekend for my daughter's birthday and as we passed the speedway one of my younger daughters was asking about the track. It is a shame that at least some weekend circuits could not ...

Per the US News rankings ( http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges ),which tracks alumni giving percentage, we're right at 10%, which could be much better. You might be surprised to know that that rate is as high or higher than every school in the UNC system except for Chapel Hi...
