“Always do sober what you said you’d do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”

and…

“To me heaven would be a big bull ring with me holding two barrera seats and a trout stream outside that no one else was allowed to fish in and two lovely houses in the town; one where I would have my wife and children and be monogamous and love them truly and well and the other where I would have my nine beautiful mistresses on nine different floors.”

Godspeed and give em’ hell, Jim. I dedicate to you that glass of hideously expensive, yet utterly fabulous, glass of Macallan 18 I drank on Sunday.

He keeps his scalp, but those who bear witness will be stunned into silence by the rest.

I find myself touched by his asking God to watch over his dog. I hope that bargain was well-struck.

>joking with medical personnel, cussing and begging for narcotics and bargaining with God<

…That about sums up the Halloween night game we had against Texas about 10 years go.

RIP Jim.

Maybe Mike Hamilton will hire his corpse to coach my Vols. Sounds like Jim’s lifeless body has more “get up and go” than my beleagured pumpkin.

Death by Orgeron would definitely invovle a naked bear hug and an outhouse (minus the hyperarticulateness of course)

It’s stuff like this that makes me realize how much I suck as a human being and as a man’s man.

…wait, what?

THAT is an inspiration and a true celebration of life. +100 cocktails in the afterlife of your choosing, sir.
