He also points out that Billy has been in negotiations with Jeremy Foley (UF's AD) all year, with UF already willing to pay at least 2.5/year. So if Billy goes, it certainly won't be because of the money--the money will be the same at UF or UK. If he goes, it will be purely because of the mystique that job (used to?) holds.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I think he stays in G'ville at least for a few more years, then jumps ship to the NBA after a good 15-year-ish run at Florida.TJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923521765537437204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-84215599888982381202007-03-30T17:20:00.000-04:002007-03-30T17:20:00.000-04:00Ok, it's been in the back of my mind all day.

The city council had approved the ordinance in August, making it illegal to sleep within 500 feet of a deposit of feces or urine, but then repealed it in September.<BR/><BR/>City Attorney Brad Jerbic has said that part of the ordinance was a mistake.<BR/><BR/>The men were arrest Nov. 26 at a park across from City Hall.<BR/><BR/>Their lawsuit, seeking $2 million each, stated that only Webber was asleep at the time and that the three were handcuffed "while dozens of onlookers observed the ordeal."<BR/><BR/>"They were arrested, taken off to jail, for 'sleeping too close to poop,'" said Gary Peck, executive director of the ACLU of Nevada. "Their rights were violated — violated in a rather egregious fashion."<BR/><BR/>The arrests escalated tensions between homeless advocates and the city officials, which have been criticized for unorthodox attempts to clean up parts of town populated by the homeless. A city ordinance banning giving food to indigent people in parks was declared unconstitutional in November.<BR/><BR/>The men's attorney E. Brent Bryson said the $45,000 settlement was reasonable.<BR/><BR/>"The realities are that these individuals are not capable of maintaining and sustaining an ongoing litigation," he said. "This quick money to them represents an ability for them to get back on their feet."<BR/><BR/>Only Hicks, 44, knew what he would do with the cash.<BR/><BR/>"I'm going to get my own transitional housing," he said. "Like a typical citizen, I plan on looking through the newspaper and on foot for rentals. I have a game plan."RevScottDeMangeMDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02220843774217781967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-71230046171316216422007-03-30T16:44:00.000-04:002007-03-30T16:44:00.000-04:00My cat's breath smells like cat food.My cat's breath smells like cat food.Brian in Oxfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053368055698118199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-4271687017576221192007-03-30T16:34:00.000-04:002007-03-30T16:34:00.000-04:0010 minutes of Homer.and5 minutes of Homer.<A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP1X-O2eFhE" REL="nofollow">10 minutes of Homer.</A><BR/><BR/>and<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx8wX9tWsHo" REL="nofollow">5 minutes of Homer.</A>futurelegendvinceyounghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10321227142567411487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-43997720292149703282007-03-30T16:28:00.000-04:002007-03-30T16:28:00.000-04:00Wigham's kid:(1) I ate my red crayon(2) I sleep in...Wigham's kid:<BR/><BR/>(1) I ate my red crayon<BR/>(2) I sleep in a drawerchitown italianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05005966579859344446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-87842748974615354152007-03-30T16:24:00.000-04:002007-03-30T16:24:00.000-04:00i like the bush and dog one. dog chases after bush...i like the bush and dog one. <BR/><BR/>dog chases after bush<BR/>homer: "looks like he is barking up the wrong bush." <BR/>brain.

Of course, being a highly-skilled attorney, my fee is $175 an hour. <BR/>Homer: We pay eight dollars for the night, and you can take two popsicles out of the freezer. <BR/>Hutz: Three. <BR/>Homer: Two. <BR/>Hutz: OK, two.

I think there is something cool about both schools meeting up again for a title in the same year. <BR/><BR/>Best simpsons episode had to be when they went to japan or when santas little helper had puppies. The reason for that is back in college there was a restaurant in gville called TQ that gave out free beer whenever homer would go D'oh. That episode he says d;oh like 15 times in a row when the dogs eat his chips. The owner gave everyone free drafts all night long. After the show he would put on reruns for an hour and a half and run that special. <BR/><BR/>Has anyone read "The D'oh of Homer?" It is great because it looks at the simpsons from varying philosophical stances. It appeals to intellectuals while still being accessible to people with little education but a vast knowledge of the show. <BR/><BR/>"Me fail English?
