How many Crocs do you see at the circus?

Yeah cause Crocs are highly entertaining.

Is being mentioned in the boilerplate (not the resolution) as the world capital of college basketball ("capital of the world? Does anyone in Europe, Asia, Africa, etc, even have college hoops?) a greater or lessor achievement than winning the recruiting title?

Either way, I'm sure both are sufficient reasons for rushing the trailer park, eh, Crotch?

I was sorely grieved to hear of Hizzy's death. He was a gentle spirit. I admired his affable, easy-going nature. A quality that is very rare on the boards. 

I hope the rest of you are well.

AA - I hope you stick around. You are missed.


My next bet in the dead pool - Casey Kasem. First the Don from Soul train, then Dick Clark from AB....only a matter of time.
