So far our trip has been awesome. Made it through the Rockies just fine. Found an RV campground in Colorado to stay at. You meet the most interesting people...

Not really "dating" related per se (but it could be... ). Also I don't want to stomp on others posts. The caption was "found my grandads treasures." Now I know where my "interests" come from.

Sex sells... Computers?
Hell yes I'd play this video game with her (looks like 1978-79 maybe). She's definitely my type (tall, blonde, athletic). Actually I would do whatever she wanted. Wonder how old she'd be today? Would she want to date a "much younger" man? My coworker said she needed help with her computer. Looks like 70's or maybe even 60's? Long before my time. Wouldn't know what to do (with the computer, I mean... ). But I'm sure there would be something I could help her with. Dad!!! Does mom know you signed up for this? $12.95 for a "lifetime" membership. Does that mean I can still use it? (Looked up "Shark Attack" it's from 1981. And I think that's an Apple IIc she's using in the last ad. About 1984-87 vintage.)

More sex and technology.
“WhamBam” for two players? Can’t imagine what that would involve? Wonder what year this was? Kinda looks like a rip off of “Pong.” Of course a full color add for “Shark Attack” featuring my “future wife.” But I wonder how she felt about her “future husband” not being born yet. Fuck yes, I’d go out with her. See, it works both ways… The President of France, Emmanuel Macron’s wife is over 20 years older than him. It just depends. “Leisure Suit Larry” late 80’s. Used to play this at a friends house. Hacked it and found a list of key words it recognized. We were able to complete it easily after that. Here “Larry” gets tied to the bed by a hooker. Of course you use the knife to escape. Christ, no wonder we’re all fucked up. Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:27 PM. |

Can't get away from these ads wherever I go:
"Born Before 1985? California Will Eliminate Up To $355/Month Off Your Mortgage" Got to admit this ad is much better than ones featuring 80 year old men like they use in Indiana. She was born before 1985? How old is this picture then? (Out here $355 towards a mortgage is nothing. ) Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:27 PM. |

After disconnecting from our “rig” the drive this morning went very well. The ocean is beautiful and I’ve never seen the Golden Gate bridge before. Might be a nice place to retire someday. Just don’t wanna know how much it costs… Maybe we can sell our house and live in this trailer? Quite a few live in trailers as housing is prohibitively expensive. Maybe Indiana isn’t so bad after all?
Here is my latest “future wife.” Need to go for an eye exam when we get back so was looking at the newest styles. Didn’t know eyeglasses could cause cardiac arrest. God, she’s gorgeous. And purple hair. “Mal’s” big sister maybe? Did a search, figured she had to be someone famous like an actress or model. Found nothing. Does that mean she’s available? Will check back in later. Very long drive ahead. I-5 to Los Angeles. We will be playing Leo’s cover of Californication. This is a big state. First time I came here told friends it was almost like going to another country. That was back when “Arnold” was Governor. Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:27 PM. |

Yes, I know Canada is vast. But It must take forever getting anywhere by dogsled.
Reminds me though, of the last time I was subjected to a "whip" and "harness." It had to be during my date with Eva Lin a few months ago. And of course a pic of the Windsor/Detroit tunnel. Been through there many times. Good memories. Last edited by a9127; 07-16-2019 at 10:52 AM. |

Dropped in on Gold’s Gym in Santa Monica yesterday. It’s not the same place as “Arnold” and others worked out at in the 70’s. More like the place I go to in Zionsville. But my truck did got a lot of attention. Guess you don't see a black Ford F350 diesel "dually" that often in LA.
Not long after I started working out for sports, my mom worried about me getting hurt or doing steroids or whatever. So I thought watching “Pumping Iron” might be a good way for her to see how bodybuilders actually train. And a couple had played pro football before. So one afternoon I watched it with her on DVD. She knew I liked Arnold from his movies and had a Terminator poster in my room. All went well until we got to the part where he talks about “coming.” My mom said nothing. I didn’t say anything either but it was all I could do to keep from giggling. At least she never stopped me from lifting after that. The last picture. This scene is from Pumping Iron. Hell if I had three girls hanging on to me like that when I worked out (especially the one sitting on his shoulders ), I’d be “coming” all the time too. It’s good to be Ah-nold!

Tomorrow night we will park the RV someplace, "detach" and stay here for at least a couple days. The Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa And Marina in San Diego. This is the same place I stayed with my "ex" 15 years ago... But it's an awesome location. And I'm sure we will make our own memories...
San Diego is my favorite city in California. What a change from Indiana. Back home it's 90 F and there is an "excessive heat warning" plus thunderstorms are expected later today. Here the extended forecast is low 70's F to High 60's F and sunny each day. Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:27 PM. |

We are headed back East along Interstate 8 which runs very close to the US/Mexico border, through Imperial Dunes, and Yuma. Have not made this trip since 2004 going the other way. Forgot that it’s a real fucking desert. And like 100+ F. “Death Valley” is around here somewhere. In fact I think we went through it.
Since this is about “dream girls” couldn’t help but think back to 1997 and “Vegas Vacation.” My “dream girl” from that movie was of course Audrey Griswold, played by Marisol Nichols. I was 14 when the movie first came out. A variety of actresses have played Chevy Chase’s daughter but Marisol was my favorite. She is still gorgeous and continues to act today. My friends and I used to watch this movie all the time. Long before I was old enough to visit Vegas we always wondered what it was like. As an adult I have been there many times. Of course you know the saying “What goes on in Vegas, stays in Vegas…” Audrey’s brother Rusty (Ethan Embry) has a string of bad luck tying to get into casinos. You must be 21. So he finally finds someone to sell him a fake ID. His new name: “Nick Papagiorgio.” Nick was “from Yuma and in Software.” Nick has a run of luck in the casinos where he also gets to hang out with “high rollers” and displays uncanny luck at winning cars. Especially a Dodge Viper. The last picture is “Cousin Eddie” (Randy Quaid) who lives with his family in the desert in a trailer. You see a lot of that out here. Definitely “off the grid” Maybe that’s what we will end up doing. (Moderators: Marisol and Ethan were born in 1973 and 1978 so they are 24 and 19 here.)

Take her to a football game
Well, and where exactly did you think I played?
Best YouTube Comments: “When this one was popped, one of my fraternity brothers was able to snatch it. It's still hanging in our house.” (Me: They are considered a collectible. I’d much rather have my old helmet that sits on my desk at home.) “We started this back in the early 90s when the Fantasy Gift Shop used to be located on the Levee (where we would buy). The John Purdue Club (Me: Many older alumni. Most very wealthy.) sitting below the student section used to get extremely upset. The best part was watching the ushers trying to corral it.” (Me: Never paid any attention to this silliness. I was always focused on the cheerleaders, er...I mean the game...)

Summer 1999. Hated by many, loved by others, Limp Bizkit had a huge hit with “Nookie.” Released in June 1999, to me, this song sums up popular culture at the “end of the millennium” better than anything except maybe “The Matrix.”
I was 16 when this was filmed. Of course I used to check out all the girls in the video as they join up to follow Fred Durst. (Note to younger members: We did in fact have cell phones then. Everyone I know had one. No need to use “pay phones” in the video except maybe for dramatic effect.) But one of the dancers stood out to me above all the others. Twenty years later, I still don’t know her name. I think she’s totally hot. Especially with her “mom” jeans and cropped top. |

Another “clickbait” article. This time about words and phrases from the 1980’s you should stop using. Except that most of them I don’t remember and others are from the 90’s and 2000’s. At least they could fucking get it right. You think?
My personal favorite, “Gag Me With A Spoon!” was singled out for especially harsh criticism. I use it all the time as a joke and sadly it is still appropriate for many things today. I’m surprised “Awesome” didn’t make their list. Maybe because everybody, even Grandma and Grandpa, still uses it. But I was puzzled by their example of an “80’s geek.” She looks like she was born in the mid-nineties. Not the 80’s. Anyway, as far as I’m concerned my “future wife” can say whatever she wants. “Like, totally…” Last edited by a9127; 08-04-2019 at 04:15 PM. |

From the Daily Mail (so you know it must be true).
'He is the love of my life': Woman, 20, reveals she has 'married' a ZOMBIE DOLL that she got when she was 13 - as she details how she and the figurine even 'consummated' the union. Felicity married her zombie doll, on September 15, 2018. The ceremony, which took place in Tiverton, Rhode Island, cost her $500. Her father bought the doll for her when she was 13 years old. Felicity's doll was purchased online on a 'creepy' doll collection website. (Me: Never would have guessed. ). The Massachusetts-native claims that the zombie doll is now 37 years old (Me: Shhh… Don’t tell everyone. I still list my age as "29." Thanks a lot. ). The pair share intimate moments, according to Felicity, who says the doll is the ‘love of her life’. (Me: Well I guess if I can’t meet Dove Cameron… ). (Thought that was a pretty good pic of me. I don't wear a suit that often. Photographer got my "good side." Probably get lots of dates now... But I don't think I look 6'4" in these pictures. Must be the camera. ).

This "Zombie Doll" thing is even creepier than the "man marries anime character." And did they mean what I thought they meant by consummated?
Clothes make the man... This was a few years ago with my "ex." Used this pic on Tinder. Still don't understand why no one "swiped right." Last edited by a9127; 08-06-2019 at 03:27 PM. |

Descendants 3 was awesome. Watched it last Friday night with my nieces as planned. I gave it an “A” on a fan site later that evening. “Hades” does in fact turn out to be “Mal’s Dad.” He is, as played by Cheyenne Jackson one of my two favorite characters in the movie (the other is his daughter of course. ).
If they ever decide to do a 4th Descendants, they would make the most amazing Father/Daughter superhero combo ever. Either that or just have them join the cast of the “Avengers.” So I’ve decided to go as Hades for Halloween (even though I’m still not old enough to be Dove’s dad ). The problem is getting a date. Dating my own “daughter” would be too weird (did I already say I’m not old enough to be her dad? Oh I did? Sorry… ) although my wife said she would go as “Mal” if I wanted. That might work. And our friends would probably think it was hilarious. But of course, several months ago I already decided who I wanted to be my date for Halloween this year. She can be no one other than my friend Aleksandra from Russia who makes a very sexy yet bloody cosplay “Carrie.” I think the two of us would make a great couple. Especially with her riding on the back of my Harley looking like that. We could always drop in on her prom later and "raise hell." Definitely would be a night to remember.

“Over 50?” WTF? This is worse than “Born before 1987.” Why am I getting things from the AARP? I met her on "DateHookup.com." After dinner we went back to her place. She said she’d suck my dick if I signed my ZR-1 over to her. Guess I'll be taking Uber home tonight.
(No. He can't be "50." God I hope I die first. Looked it up. All I could find was "document." And of course the second picture. Maybe I should hang on to the ZR-1 a little longer? ) Last edited by a9127; 08-10-2019 at 09:00 AM. |

Even after all these years I still workout regularly. I’m definitely of the “old school, no pain no gain” heavy weights and cardio method. Which for me now goes back almost 25 years. It worked well for me when I played football and it’s working well for me now as I continue through my 30’s.
I go to Anytime Fitness in Zionsville maybe 3x a week. I like to go late at night because I usually get the place to myself. Sometimes there’s a few other “night owls” who come in to do the treadmill or lift light weights. There are some “crossfitters” as well but they usually have scheduled times during the day. Anyway the gym has flat screen TV’s all over. Usually playing ESPN, old movies, news, or replays of Colts games. Sometimes they play “infomercials.” Last night they had an infomercial for something called “PiYo.” I had never heard of it before but its spokeswoman (and creator as I would later learn) was an incredibly fit very perky blonde. I’m not much into this stuff but she sure got my attention. She had an upbeat personality almost to the point where I could see how some might find it annoying but I really liked her positive attitude. She clearly was not a “19 year old fitness model” (although I thought she looked great ) and that made me even more interested in her. I would have guessed she was at least my age or older. I took some time out to watch the ad (OK, actually her…) then resumed my workout. When I got back home early this morning I looked up “PiYo.” Her name is Chalene Johnson and she was born in 1969 which makes her 50. Damn. They should put her in those stupid “Born before 1985” ads instead of all those 80 year old men. Who knows, I might even join the “AARP.” I learned more about PiYo but also learned that Chalene is married. But then so am I. Sigh… Anyway here’s a few pictures of Chalene. Does PiYo work? Probably. Any exercise program will if you stick with it. But I was looking mostly at the last picture. I was thinking that I’d have to get underneath her to really find out. If she ever wants to visit Zionsville, it's a date. Last edited by a9127; 08-12-2019 at 04:04 PM. |

My dream girl for today is gorgeous opera diva Joyce DiDonato!
My fantasy is I’m a young guy just discovering women and she’s my babysitter! She notices my attraction to her and she starts to tease me. I absolutely love it and this naughty teasing goes on for years. Finally, when I’m old enough, she lets me explore her and teaches me everything! |

I had presented the case of Mr. Ratelband several months ago but somehow it got deleted. Like so many things in life, it seems it all comes down to getting laid. He had petitioned a judge to reduce his legal age by 20 years. Anyway, here is his story once again:
Quote:
But he has given me a great idea!!! I’ve decided to petition a judge to make me “18” again so that I can be the same age as Hayley Williams in these pictures. (Note: The court as expected, turned down Mr. Ratelband’s request. Guess he’ll have to suck it up or lie like the rest of us… ) Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:24 PM. |

It's been fun
This is as good a place as any to post this.
While I will remain a member of TLB, I’m just not into it anymore. Not really worth the trouble to participate anymore. I am beginning another school year and after getting back from vacation, my company is picking up a lot of business. My WordPress site is getting far more recognition for my posts and stories. Been using the “Trans Ally” flag as my logo which makes more sense as I identify as “straight” yet have had relationships with transwomen. Also I’m married to a ciswoman. I have a lot of life experiences to share. On my WordPress site I have far greater freedom (and control over) whatever I want to post and don’t have to worry about things getting “stomped on” or putting up with snide comments from other users. My biography on WordPress has gotten a lot of reaction and many have said they liked my profile picture. One of my wife’s friends even said I “looked 23” and another said I “couldn’t be over 30.” So I guess I can’t complain. There’s no need to be anonymous either. No porn involved and I can discuss issues of importance. I’m better able to support my friends in the LGBT community. Hell, other than my language sometimes, I’d not be ashamed to let my Mom or Dad read it. Probably my best read piece was my tribute to Sharon Tate last summer. It got more views and likes than anything I’ve ever posted. Interestingly it got absolutely zero attention on this site. That among other things told me this really isn’t the place for me. Good luck to the future of TLB. And I hope my friends on here will stay in touch. You are the reason I’ve remained as long as I have. |

This is NOT meant to be political in any way. In fact I’ve always carefully avoided discussing politics on here. Saw this today on CNN and simply thought it was an “interesting” picture. Obviously others did too, it’s already gone “viral.”
I think First Lady Melania Trump is an attractive woman and not really that old (49). Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, is considered very handsome among world leaders and is himself only in his 40’s. I'm sure nothing was going on. But if that was me I’d be like “Room 605. 8:00 tonight?” Hopefully this will usher in a new era of friendship and cooperation between the United States and our neighbors to the North.

Shake It
No “infomercials” last night at the gym. I was hoping to see my “PiYo” friend Chalene again. She really does need to stop by Zionsville sometime. A couple of very romantic restaurants and the downtown area is really nice to go for a walk later. Lots of warm nights still. Yes, I'm asking her out. Like she'll ever see this.
But I do remember these from years ago… The “Shake Weight.” Used to be commercials for them all the time. I even know someone who bought one (against my advice ). The second picture. I’m not sure what she’s suggesting… Does she want to do that to me? Or do I just have a dirty mind? (Fuck, yes of course I do… ). I don’t see what the big deal is. I can do that movement myself one handed without a weight. Although it would be lots more fun with a partner. Last edited by a9127; 09-01-2019 at 12:45 PM. |

The Penis Lives!
The Purdue “penis” has its beginnings in the 1990’s. I really don’t know how it got started. Or why a penis. Maybe when you don’t win games the fans look for other things to focus on. I never payed attention to it. You learn to “block out” everything anyway. I only knew of it from TV, our student newspaper, and some of the guys in my dorm. There was an unfortunate situation a few years ago where a player was injured and the crowd kept bouncing it around. That became a big story on ESPN. Not a good thing…
Yes we sucked or were mediocre for most of the time I was there. I often wonder what would have happened if my family had stayed in Michigan? Michigan State (my Dad’s alma matter) was very interested in me and there was a possible “full ride” scholarship. What made things hard is that I had to “try out” as a “unknown” walk on my Freshman year so I struggled. Injuries did not help. And my parents, especially, wanted me to focus on my classes. I started in Engineering. My degree by the way is in "Industrial Management." Looking back, guess I shoulda gone to “IU” but they were worse… My first wife had been a cheerleader at IU and was instrumental in helping me get into grad school there. Both my wives are nurses. They both have thought I displayed signs of "CTE." Purdue football has been good at times (not recently however). Just before we moved down here, they had a decent team with a really good quarterback. I know you’ve heard of him. His name is Drew Brees. I’ve met him before. Not that much older than me. Good guy. Future HOF. With Andrew Luck’s retirement, Brees is probably my favorite NFL player. I still think the Saints got screwed last year (the “no call” if you follow football). There is an unconfirmed “rumor” circulating in Indianapolis that if Jacoby Brissett has a poor start, the Colts may try to land a “veteran” QB. The name being tossed around is familiar to Colts fans: Manning. Only this time Eli. Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:24 PM. |

Also, to set the record straight, I struggled only as a "walk on" at Purdue my Freshman year. Did OK after that. But no we weren't very good. Rather would have played for Michigan State on a full scholarship. And yes, concussions are a serious issue. The new helmets don't seem to help that much. I'm sure I will always have some trouble as I get older. Was it worth it? In many ways, yes. Especially the opportunity to play at that level. Good things such as Teamwork, Leadership, Sense of Accomplishment, Connections in Business, Performing in front of thousands of people, learning about the Media, Public Speaking, etc. derived from football have helped me in my two other careers. And everything else has pretty much healed up over time. So in my 30's I'm in great shape other than possible CTE and the ocasional pain and "stiffness" when I get out of bed in the morning. Anyway I'd be too "old and slow" to play now... Unless I was a Quarterback or Kicker. Since my football career ended my proudest achievement has been to recieve a special "Heavy Hitter" skull and crossbones t-shirt from my students who play at our university. This shirt was given only to outstanding defensive players on our National Championship team in 2012. It meant a lot to me. It's kind of like a lifetime "fraternity." So yeah, it was worth it.

Early this morning I was getting ready for class and checked CNN to see what the “latest” on the Hurricane was. Who should show up but one of my “future wives.”
The first pic is from the ad for the sweatshirt that is supposed to “Disrupt American Manufacturing.” She’s allegedly an “Apple Engineer.” We’d have a lot in common. If not, we could always base it on sex… Haven’t seen her in a long time. Thought she had forgotten all about me. Anyway, still don’t know her name… figured if she’s following me around like that she must really like me. So I thought I’d ask her out this weekend. Only problem was I couldn’t find a name. But I did find a few more pictures. Hope my wife doesn’t find out… Last edited by a9127; 09-04-2019 at 06:54 PM. |

Aspen Brooks screencaps from a video interview.
The video is just over 11 minutes long and not hard to find. Probably too long to post on here. Definitely watch it ‘till the end… God, she looks so sexy in those ripped jeans. “Future wife”? Of course she is. (My first thought while watching this clip is what else is between her legs that I’d like to suck? Hint: It’s not from McDonalds. ) Last edited by a9127; 09-07-2019 at 11:52 AM. |

Some Final Advice
Below was my response to someone's question about dating in another thread. Thought I'd quote it again here. No you are not gay—although it wouldn’t matter if you were—and everything about your attraction to “t-girls” is normal. Don’t worry about it!

Saturday night workout update. Tonight’s infomercial featured an “inversion table.” For low payments of only $14.99, it promised “relief of tension.” To me it looked more like something that belonged in a home dungeon.
I eagerly awaited my own “relief” as I watched a pretty fitness model clad in tight spandex strap her ankles to the device then lean back with her arms stretched over her head like she was on a torture rack. Sadly I felt only ”frustration” as the commercial quickly cut to video of grey haired middle-aged men using the device to “relive lumbar pain.” I most likely won’t be purchasing this piece of fitness equipment. However it did give me an idea (actually quite a few of them… ). Maybe I could get my friend Chalene to try it out with me? We could take turns. Or better still, use two of them. I'm sure we could make it work. Bet that would “relieve tension.” Last edited by a9127; 09-08-2019 at 03:52 AM. |

Took a while to find these. From some of my previous posts you probably realize that I don’t always look back on my college career all that fondly. Sure that I would have been better off had we stayed in Michigan. My high school team was awesome almost winning a state title. That was when it was still fun.
Our locker room. November 9, 2002. We played Ohio State. What a mess… One of those is mine. A surprisingly close game, Ohio State would end up winning 10-6 eventually going on to win the National Championship. ABC broadcast the game. Because of Ohio State I’m sure--not us… Most schools have “inspirational” slogans like “Play like a Champion Today” or “Strength and Honor.” This was our slogan… well duh! It also helps if your team is awesome. “Beat Ohio State.” Now that does get one fired up as they head out onto the field. Given Ohio State’s dominance that year maybe it should have said “Just don’t get your fuckin’ ass kicked.” But I won’t leave out the best part of college football. This IS my “Dream Girl” thread after all. My girlfriend during this time had actually been a cheerleader at Indiana University, our main rival. Six years older than me, we were married not long after this. Looking at this picture, my only question is why is our “mascot” ugly AF? And he’s lost his helmet. Nice hair. He is supposed to be a “Boilermaker.” Why does he look instead like a cross between the “Walking Dead” and Super Dork? (The cheerleader picture is more recent. However "Purdue Pete" still looks the same. And the team may be even worse today. Last year Purdue got slaughtered 63-14 in the "Music City Bowl" in Nashville. No wonder our students started tossing around an inflatable dick during games. ) Last edited by a9127; 10-25-2020 at 10:23 PM. |

OK. One more then I gotta go workout. Warning: Some of these may keep you up at night.
From 1969. Sorry dude you're not getting any... Creepy AF. Wonder where they store these? I won't sleep tonight. From the 40's or 50's. Is that supposed to put fear into your opponent? Weird. I've got shot glasses with this "classic" design on them. At least they are put to good use. When "Sponge Bob" thinks he's creepy... Ooops. Sorry. Wrong team. This is the Oakland Raiders of the NFL. Now that's how to do it! Last edited by a9127; 09-14-2019 at 11:02 PM. |

This is supposed to be a "Dream Girls" thread so here you go. These are the "Goldusters." Purdue's dance team. They are nationally ranked and perform worldwide as well as at games and the Indy 500.
(Much better than the creepy "mascot." He must be related to those "evil clowns." For a university that prides itself on academics and is known for its Science and Engineering programs as well as it's most famous alumni: Neil Armstrong, I'm amazed that they would have such a representative for athletics. "Purdue Pete" always looked to me like he suffered one concussion too many. ) Last edited by a9127; 09-22-2019 at 01:49 PM. |

After my earlier post, I figured someone was bound to discover it. So I thought I’d better go find it first. The highlights are on YouTube. Damned Internet! ESPN Classic no less. I forgot how bad it actually was. Fortunately the footage is old and grainy. Was it that long ago?
I still did not play very much as a Sophomore. On one of the videos you can catch a quick glimpse of me towards the end getting taken out of a play (Jesus… ), and on special teams. They scored on 4th and 1 to win. God, how fucking embarrassing. Too bad they didn’t burn this video. Ohio State would go on to win the National Championship that year. Their #71 weighed 325 lbs. Interesting looking back 17 years later. I have never seen this footage before. Of course I had an entirely different perspective down on the field. To this day I have no regrets. Overall, playing college ball was mostly fun (other than the injuries) and it could have been worse. We know a lot more about concussions now. I was lucky although my wife who is a nurse thinks I show signs of CTE. Returning to finish my degree, I ended up getting a doctorate. I’ve had a very successful career and I credit football with teaching leadership, developing confidence, facing adversity, and instilling good work habits. I made many friendships and business connections as well. And my dedication to fitness has paid off as I progress into my 30’s. I sure as hell don’t feel old. Other than the occasional aches and pains getting out of bed sometimes. (That's why I find the "Beat Ohio State" sign over the door so funny. I actually don't even remember it. Wasn't paying attention. Your mind is elsewhere. That sign is so "matter of fact" it might as well say "watch your step". I would rather see something like "Tonight we dine in hell." or "There is no tomorrow for you and that makes you very dangerous.") Last edited by a9127; 09-16-2019 at 11:24 PM. |

I have however from time to time thought that one day I would make a return to collegiate athletics. I have a lot of experience. And of course ties to Purdue.
Maybe as a coach? Last edited by a9127; 09-20-2019 at 07:56 PM. |

You knew it wouldn't take me very long to find someone I liked. Wonder what it would be like to coach my “future wife.” Can you tell which one she is in the picture above? She looks like a “leader” to me and clearly stands out from the others. Her name is Blake and she’s 6’2”. She’s also a Management major so I could always help her with her homework. I'm sure we've had some of the same professors.
Found out that she’s a “redshirt” Senior so that means she’s about the age of Dove Cameron. Not really THAT much younger than me… My only regret is that she didn’t go to Purdue in the “mid-2000’s.” Would have rather dated her than my “ex.” Bet stuff would have worked out. I would think we’d have a lot in common. Except it looks like she’s doing way better than I did in football. Last edited by a9127; 09-20-2019 at 07:56 PM. |

Got serious work to do this afternoon but those creepy “heads” have been bothering me for days. Did some research and found out they store them in the basement of Mackey Arena (basketball). Apparently Purdue “keeps” all the old heads (an unpleasant thought ). Some early ones weigh as much as 50 lbs (23kg). Shit, a guy who’s strong enough to carry around 50 lbs supported just by his neck needs to be out on the field playing not wearing some stupid costume.
The second pic is an old “unofficial” t-shirt from the ‘80s. Purdue fans have always imagined a “rivalry” with Notre Dame where none exists (it’s with Indiana University if anybody). However in most Purdue/ND matchups it’s usually the “Boilermakers” who end up getting “fucked.” In the meantime Purdue Women’s Volleyball is off to a good start. Too bad they don’t get more recognition. Blake and her teammates are already 5-1. Personally I’d rather follow them. Last edited by a9127; 09-20-2019 at 07:56 PM. |

I think that's called stalking.

Yes. Perhaps. Of course I was only trying to show “school spirit.” Besides right now they are our best hope for a Championship.
But it would only be “creepy” if I showed up for a date with Blake wearing one of those “mascot heads.” (I was looking at all my memorabilia. I own next to nothing with “Purdue Pete” on it. Except for the shot glasses with the “old” Pete. And they were a gift. Most things feature the “P” logo. The only stuff I have out in my home office is my old helmet, some “Rose Bowl” items, and a “fidget spinner” on my desk. The black helmet I received from my wife for my birthday last year is in my company’s office. The helmet I received this year sits on a bookshelf at our home. Now, for once, I will be very serious. The other Purdue “logo” you will see is the train. Why a train? There is a tragic story behind it. On Halloween, 1903, 17 members of Purdue’s football team were killed when the train they were riding to Indianapolis collided with a freight train. The site of the accident is near where Methodist Hospital is located today. A few years later, the “Memorial Gym” was built and dedicated. The train was a special “charter” carrying the team, students, and faculty. Hence the name “Boilermaker Special.” According to what I have heard, the train, not “Pete” is actually the "official" mascot.) Last edited by a9127; 09-20-2019 at 07:56 PM. |

I think it would be more on the funny side than anything else. I'm sitting here laughing as I think about it.
