Pulling back the shower curtain quickly and screaming to scare guys was a big thing one year in Dana. One of the biggest guys was the easiest to scare. Yell and startle, scream response followed by a string of profanity.

I had the reputation of not being able to startle. Partly because I have a slow twitch brain and partially because I am uber aware of my surrounds and have the ears and hearing of an owl, it was almost impossible to "sneak up" on me.
30 years ago my coworkers, in the same room, would dial my extension just to see me jump. Something about that old telephone bell that just did it to me. I even used to jump from a certain song that started with the phone ringing
 
Sounds like the marketing team went to a strip joint and decided the name it after the best lap dance.

The spelling is off. If the marketing team drew inspiration at a strip club, then it would have been Starrie instead of Starry.
 
Random.

I have a visceral hatred for the James Aurther song Say You Won't Let Go. For gods sake, it was a released a number of years ago, just stop playing it on the radio already! I mean if the one line, "I held your head, while you were throwing up" isn't enough his weak ass voice that vacillates between cracking and lisping does it. Worst pop song of the 21st century.

It's currently 62-0 after the 3rd.

I know Urbandale has already shut them out earlier this year.

That would be a really rough season. I'll give credit to them for sticking it out, that would be a looong season IMO.
 
That seems odd for a 4A school. Do they not have many players or are they just that bad? I have that right, 4A right?
5A. (Which I find silly that girls' and boys' basketball don't have the same number of classes) But yes, both schools in the highest girls' athletic class for Iowa.

I was watching the live stream, and East had 5 players in uniform on their bench. Ottumwa had 5 also with a few others in street clothes who I thought might be team managers and maybe one injured player?
 
Al Gore may be coming to my house tomorrow. Tag me as a major reason for climate change today. Don’t know what I had yesterday but I’ve been loaded with gas all day. Had to sit at a basketball game, 3 of them, that wasn’t helpful either.

Neighbors bought me two bottles of wine and a big bar of fancy chocolate for snow blowing their drive. Nothing for Chuck although he did get a mention in their thank you note. I should probably buy him a quart of nice new oil.

Sanded the ice glacier of an entrance sidewalk. Clair the mail carrier appreciated it although she was talking with some dismay about the hood having no street side sidewalks. PITA considering the 16" of snow we have on the ground. She can't even get her piece of crap mail mobile up our street, short dead end is too steep and icy.

Oof. And on hard bleachers. I hope you were able to time your "relief" with a cheering crowd.
