The Last One

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Thursday, November 24, 2011 in Football, Friendly Wager, holiday

Today marks the end of an era. The traditional rivalry between Texas A&M University and University of Texas will play their last game this evening. There’s a lot of history between the schools, and suffice it to say, some of it is….not too pretty. But all things, good or bad, come to an end.

By the way, just who is watching The Longhorn Network?? ;)

Video hat tip to LC Draco.

Deadpool

Posted by ArmedGeek on Monday, October 3, 2011 in Deadpool, Friendly Wager

So sorry I’m dragging ass today.

I wanted to announce a new feature at H&B…

DeadPool

The rules are simple. You pick 25 celebrities that you think will kick the bucket in the next year. If a celebrity on your list dies, you are awarded points based on the age of the celebrity when they died. Points are calculated as 100 -- age at time of death with a minimum score of 1.

The game lasts 1 year. It starts this Oct 31 and ends next Oct 31. Grand prize is your choice of Hookers & Booze coffee mug or beer stein. Details on the prize will come along soon.

The website for this game is not quite done yet, but I wanted to give you all a heads-up so you can start planning your lists. I’ll announce the address of the website in a couple of days.

Get to planning!

Who wants to play some cards?

Posted by ArmedGeek on Friday, May 20, 2011 in Entertainment, Friendly Wager

I’m curious if any of y’all would be interested in a little online Texas Holdem. I’ve set up a private server and the client runs on Windows, OSX and Linux. It would be a dedicated server for just us .. by ‘us’ I mean our little corner of the blogosphere.

Its a simple little application, not spyware or anything, no money involved. If there’s enough interest I’ll add a leaderboard to keep track of the winners and losers.

Let me know what you guys think. If you guys and gals want to give it a go, I’ll post download links for the client and start scheduling times to play.

Also, you’ll notice that the chat thingy has changed. I’m now running a flash IRC application that ties into our very own Hookers & Booze IRC server.

For those comfortable with IRC you can also connect with your favorite IRC client at irc.hookersandbooze.com port 6667 channel #hookersandbooze.

Challenge of the Friar

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Thursday, March 24, 2011 in Friendly Wager, Funny Pics, Personal, Uncategorized

Once again, a gauntlet has been thrown. The Curtal Friar posted a challenge to other bloggers, mainly to post pics of ourselves as teenagers. Lucky for me Sadly, I have no pics of me as a teenager uploaded. My sister, being the kind and generous soul that she is, had one of me at the tender age of ten at her Facebook page, which she insisted I use.

Don’t bother clicking on it, since it will not embiggenify. Thank goodness. I was not a very feminine looking girl, since I tend to favor my dad, who is a handsome man, but still a man. I briefly toyed with the idea of posting a current pic of me, but I have no idea how to do the bar-over-the-eyes thing. I can argue the finer points of the fall of the Roman Empire, but technologically, I am a n00b.

Update:

Mel Strikes Again

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Wednesday, February 2, 2011 in Friendly Wager, Teh Funny

A few days ago, Mel over at Big Fat Nerve threw yet another gauntlet at her gullible readers. The challenge: to come up with a band name, album title, and cover art using various websites. This is my entry:

It actually speaks to me. Well, more like screams about me, doesn’t it? Here are the rules:

1 – Go to Wikipedia and hit random. The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 – Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
3 – Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”. Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 – Use Photoshop or similar (picnik.com is a free online photo editor) to put it all together.
5 – Post it on your blog along with these instructions, and trackback or link to your post in these comments.

Have fun!! :)

Mel’s Challenge, Too

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Monday, August 23, 2010 in Friendly Wager, Funny Pics

So, Mel over at Big Fat Nerve posted a challenge: what do you look like first thing in the morning. Well, Nicole met the challenge, and taking a deep breath, I guess so will I:

Yeah, my mirror is kinda crappy, and no, I hadn’t brushed my hair. I was running out the door to walk my eldest to the bus stop. Who cares at that time in the morning about their hair?? I have better things to do, like drink my coffee :)

Boob Belt Widens, Inhofe Shocked

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Tuesday, March 2, 2010 in Friendly Wager

On a wager from cbullitt, some of us intrepid bloggers decided to test the consensus-infested waters, and see if the name INHOFE attracts “fragmentary sci-gibberish” spam from esteemed (as in “steaming piles of regurgitated flotsam”) institutes of higher learning, like UCLA, mostly in the Southern California region. I couldn’t just post a title, so I decided to pay tribute to Snarky Basterd:

MORE BOOB BELT!!!! She just can’t seem to leave that belt alone…..
