I was kind of hoping something would really piss me off in the last two weeks and I could quit and storm out in a rage. Alas, nothing did. But NAFOOM has
paid off for all the hard hours of surfing I put into it. I actually got my new job because of this board. When I bitched about my job back in December
BeeDee told me to send me his resume. Of course I didn't, but he reminded me a month ago, a week later I was flown to SA and now I'm moving there.
Who would have thought that something useful would actually come out of the degenerate place? So, I'm off to become a "Racker" and work for a
supposedly pretty sweet company called Rackspace. It was an offer I couldn't turn down.
I'm sure everyone gives a fuck.

I got the same problem.
My wife had the TV on the Bachelor 2 the other night. One girl stepped out to meet the guy and I said, "hell, she is old". They then showed her age as 33. The same age as me. I told my wife that I was having a hard time coming to grips with being "old".
Nice. Or, how about "you're and idiot". That one works, too. And you talk about incompetent. ....IndependenceBowlMainstay defending the honor of

But if it's not a downgrade from Memphis, I weep for you guys that live there. Oxford shouldn't even be mentioned in this comparison.

I went to the Sweet 16 last year in San Antonio, and while my exposure to the city was limited to the Riverwalk and downtown areas, it was a fun town with lots
to do. I would say a definite upgrade over Memphis.

I like to hear these stories. My first job - I made my boss cry - she was a woman. I felt really bad.
I support the two most frustrating teams in America: The New Orleans Saints and the Mississippi State Bulldogs.

Do tell. Once upon a time, deep deep in the jungle. There was a little engine that could. He was chugging his way across the enemy line...chugga chugga, toot toot. This little engines' mission was to take some AK-47's and a nuclear payload, over the mountain to the 2063 Battalion. Needless to say, there was plenty of opposition. You think that stopped the little engine that could? No siree bob. He just kept chugging along...chugga chugga toot toot. Not even when they climbed aboard the train, and popped out the eyes of the conducter, and blood and snot was drippin out of his eye sockets. Think that stopped the engine that could? Damn skippy...he just kept chuggin along...chugga chugga toot toot. Wasn't until Charlie rigged the bridge with plastic explosive as the little engine was making his way across the tressel. BOOM...an explosion happened. And blood, and guts, and spit, and ass was everywhere. Bubba come crawling out the back with both legs missing. Lula May's baby boy, and he looked up and me and he said," Payne I can't feel my legs." And I said," Bubba, they aint there." And I looked down and them little bloody nubs was kicking. And I said," Bubba, its 30 miles to the nearest town, and unless you can flip upside down walk on your hands you aint gonna make it." All of the sudden, Charlie was all over the place. Just me and my sidearm, and I had no other alternative, but to blast my way out...."AHHHHHHHHHHH!!" Die pig die....you'll never take Major Benson Winniford Payne alive. |

...but calling girls in San Antonio "Texas women" is a bit of a stretch. It certainly isn't anything like Dallas or Austin, where the selection
is top choice. And downtown is fun, great when friends come into town to show off. Problem is, very few people live downtown, and you've got to really
want to get there from the rest of the city. Bad parking, etc.
The good things about it, are the great food, LOTS of places to play golf that are actually in city, and its relative proximity to Austin. OP4, if you're making good money you will probably like it just fine. But think hard about location. |

I've actually already rented a house | #34 | ||

Posts: 5963 Apr 15, 2008 7:55 PM Shogun of Harlem |
It's got a big ass deck with a hot tub built in. It's supposedly a decent area. My work is paying for the first two months so that's nice.
I've been driving thirty minutes to work for six years, so location isn't that key to me. I mean, the house is in a neighborhood with a nice park with
a lake and shit.. The houses are all around 160-220k, so I'm not going to get gunned down. Plus, I'm a veteran of Rapeshotstabbedkilled, TN.

I loved it. Great folks and great food, damn good food. I had some friends in grad school in Austin, only 60 miles away, so I was up there quite a bit. Lots of
fine food, music and women in Austin. You'll like it, I wouldn't mind moving back. Good luck.

Wow, the biggest Memphis apologist on the board is moving out of Memphis. I'm not trying to start any shit, but this may be an ominous sign.
