I use liquid sucralose now (I know, I know)

But when I worked as a waiter (at a chain restaurant and old country store), I filled a pitcher with sugar and then used the hot-water tap on the coffee maker to make a thick sludge. This allowed me to get considerably more sugar into the tea without sediment.

I made the tea so sweet that we would hang toothpicks from cooking twine into the tea vat and have crystal formations by the end of dinner service.

My family's method is similar

except that we add the still-hot, concentrated tea to a pitcher with about 2 cups of sugar, and then dilute and cool the mixture by adding water.

When I make it for a setting other than a family gathering, I prefer to scale back the sugar and, on occasion, switch one of the Luzianne bags for an Earl Grey or Rooibos bag.

I don't know.

But it’s definitely not the same as putting milk in tea. You can buy it in cans or bottles, or you can buy it as an instant mix, like cocoa. It was one of the things I really craved badly when I came back to the US after living in Japan as a student, so much that I’d go to Chicago from ND in order to get it.

Honestly, I have a theory on that whole thing.

It's just frustrating, because this isn't NCAA 12

you can’t just plug in the next kid with lots of stars. ND had 3 QB’s, 2 of which had a chance to start, so spring ball set up to give those two a good number of reps early, with one of them getting the majority of the reps towards the end and in the Fall.

Now, if you bring in OH HI HIGHLY TOUTED 5 STAR you have to give him reps to see what he can do, especially since no one like that commits if you aren’t telling them they’ll at least get a shot at the starting job. Well, so now you have to give QB 3, who has started for a year and a half, an even shot as well, even though he can’t QB his way out of a Michigan paper bag. So now you’re splitting reps 4 ways, giving NONE of them a good foundation to be the starter. This is the exact problem we had this year. But oh no, adding another QB is obviously the solution…

I understand your frustration, but I think there are two separate issues here.

One is recruiting, in which I’m generally in favor of bringing in as much talent as possible. I also think it’s usually wise to sign a quarterback every year, so I really have no problem whatsoever with this.

Two is management of your quarterbacks. Kelly is certainly open to criticism on that, but that doesn’t mean that the mere act of signing a very highly-rated quarterback is a bad idea.

No, it doesn't.

It could work out perfectly well. My issue with certain people is that the mere suggestion that it might not, and that I have reservations, must mean I don’t think Kiel is any good, or that Fuller is better.

The fact that these are the same people who called me a pessimist when I said an 8-5/9-4ish season was likely is not lost on me. I can generally agree that more talented players = better. It does not always mean that, however, and we’ve had issues over the past decade with this exact situation. Kelly’s handing of QB’s over the past year hasn’t given me confidence that he can manage this situation.

New Bruce album coming out this year

http://www.avclub.com/articles/new-bruce-springsteen-album-wrecking-ball-out-marc,67921/

As previously reported, the new Bruce Springsteen album is supposed to be his “angriest” ever and feature decidedly non-E Street elements like loops and Irish folk touches. But the first single, the just posted “We Take Care Of Our Own,” is fixed squarely in The Boss’ wheelhouse, with pounding drums, an anthemic string-laden chorus, pointed lyrics about America that could be mistaken for simple-minded boosterism by listeners who take the chorus at face value

Wasn't me, but the Kingfish was known to be fond of LSU athletics.

Huey wanted a football stadium, but it was unpopular with a lot of people that thought the money should be better spent on teacher salaries, equipment, campus activities, and the like. Remember, this was at a time when most of LA was dirt poor. Anyway, Huey built “dorms” that just happened to be built around a field of grass that could also be used for football. These dorms were in use at least until the mid-late 90’s, but I never knew anyone that lived in them. They were quite funky.

Ohio Stadium used to have dorms under the grandstand

At one time, they put the band in there so they could roll out for early morning rehearsals. When i was in HS, one of the older guys from my town lived in Ohio Stadium his freshman year as part of the honors college program. I’m not sure if they’re still used.

FWIW, DevilBro lived in the basketball gym at Ohio U as a freshman. It’s more common than you’d think.

so does that mean there's a non-trivial chance we go ACC in 2013, then?

(and Pitt, of course). It would seem to set a precedent.

Also, we now need three opponents for next season on very short notice, and only one should be FCS if at all possible (and the other two should be MAC / Sun Belt / WAC / bad MWC / bad CUSA schools; we already have two Big Ten schools and USC on the schedule).

For 2013, probably.

I see Syracuse and Pitt agreeing to stay for 2012 rather than trying to get out now, though. The ACC doesn’t “need” them in 2012 anyway.

Never thought we were leaving this year

And really, this shuffle would have been a lot less messy if Mizzou and WVU were willing to stay put for another year. Then the only silly thing would have been a 13-team SEC, and they could have dealt with an unbalanced 13-team schedule while counting their money and BCS championships.
