Final Product Is Over @ WhenItStrikesMe.com

An explanatory note
For the time being, I'm going to be transitioning some archived posts over here to see how they look and whatnot and determine if this is the way I want to go.
SEC Power Poll: Week 12
Once again, this week's SaveTheShield.com SEC Power Poll Entry is a true collaborative effort. STS's Philip took the first crack and I filled in some of the gaps. Look for the final results when Team Speed Kills releases them on Wednesday morning.
1. Alabama
The Crimson Tide beat a team named after pieces of Native American footwear. That just doesn't impress us.
2. Florida
The only thing that could have made this game worth watching would be if Isiah Thomas decided to coach the FIU football team too. Yawn.
3. Ole Miss
Ah, bittersweet November: the Month Houston Nutt ponders what might have been, had he not made such a hash out of September and October (also the month his texting thumb's arthritis starts acting up in the cold).
4. LSU
We heard that Les Miles really meant to accept the Michigan Job. He just couldn't get back to them before time ran out.
CLICK THROUGH FOR THE REST
Quotably Spammed
Let it be known across the lands that Verizon's .net email accounts have the absolute worst spam filter known to man. And what's up with only being able to block 100 addresses as permaspam? Ugh, time to start transitioning friends to my gmail account. - Me, after spending too much damn time cleaning my frigging inbox.
Random Story
When I asked him if he'd ever been pressured by the football superstructure or by friends regarding players he taught in his freshman level lectures, he laughed and said the only pressure he ever got was from friends who wanted him to flunk a particularly porous offensive lineman who somehow managed to start.
Gotta love the passion of football fans... and the ethics of the professor (who gave him the grade he earned).

My Jack Handy Moments: Flying
Do you ever stop to think of just how ridiculous flying jets are? I mean really, you're in an over pressurized, aluminum tube that is hyper-oxygenated and pumped full of high octane fuel. You are then propelled by friggin' jet engines at 40,000 feet.
And that's a safer way to travel than walking down Lexington Avenue.
Crazy.
