My What IF:

Does Jim go back to the NFL if he won the Superbowl in 2012? 

I'm going with no, but maybe he retires.

You should cancel Itlay and go to Alaska. Italy is about culture and history and will still be there in 10 years. Alaska is about of the outdoor experience and it's changing every day. Who knows what it will be like in 10 years.

This is not remotely comparable. The shear number of shot types a golfer needs to be good at does not allow for the level of precision that a darter has due to the amount of time available to practice.

My ex girlfriend while at Michigan did this in the dorms too. Which left me with just the cake. Make your own cupcake cake day was more frosting than cupcake for her. Now, my wife only eats the cake and leaves me the frosting. I’ve completed the caloric circle.

I fail to see what was tough about the Johnson drop. He's not moving, the defender is not draped on him, and the ball is on time and ends up hitting him in the facemask.

Those of you who were in The summer PChem with me in 05 may remember her grandfather was Nobel prize winner Max Born. 
As a chemistry professional, this is the single most useful piece of information I got from that class.

Everytime I see these, I think: this is the easy part and I wonder how many novel excipients. are going into this that are going to need to pass GLP TOX to get into first in human. The good news is that it's cancer so that makes things a little easier from a Reg standpoint. A much larger issue is probably getting the proteins for the NP made in large enough quantity for phase 1. All the good CMOs have major backlogs from growth media shortages and general demand.

The horse predates overwatch (the game, right?) by several years. If anything it’s the other way around.

I semi retired last year (I still consult a few hours a week) at 36. My spreadsheet looked a lot different when we moved out of the city last year because of our 18month old. It was basically are the schools good and how’s the weather/proximity to major airport.

A question for those who know more about this than me: my understanding is most Olympic level female gymnasts are younger than college senior age (22-23). Does this also track to college level with the younger being better in general?

I'm a bit late to the party for this, but I feel like it is more than likely industry-related as well. I have had a lot of interviews (20-40) in the past 2 year in the biotech industry and was ghosted on less than 3. 

I awlays ask the hiring manager and HR rep what their expected timeline and hiring process is. And I typically follow up with a call or email to the contact person on that timeline if I haven't heard from them yet. Or a week or two if it was not clear from the interview.

Fill the rest with recent seasons except last year. That didn’t happen. I’ll even throw 2010 in there. Denard was used right and that was fun to watch.

Interestingly it was not this prediction thread nor the preview thread. https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/michigan-winloss-record-prediction-thread#comments
 

Also interesting: while searching for your comment, WichitanWolverine promised to eat a lemon out of mgrowolds ass if we went 10-3. So do we have to lose out for that to happen or do we get it even if we end with a better record.

In my industry (pharma/biotech) HR is your main point of contact for interviews. Who else would you ask the question to? 
I worn a suit and tie to everything until I stopped caring about being offered the job every time, and caring more about if it is a good fit and being comfortable. Most of the time I was overdressed (I’ve had senior vps interview me who ever wearing a sweatshirt and jeans) which feels as weird as being underdressed to me.

I would suggest wearing what you expect to wear to work every day and asking you contact person if there’s any doubt.

Ahhh the good ole Texas crutch. Why learn how to make excellent smoked meat when you can just wrap it in foil and produce something that a sporty grad would deliver to your door. 

yes I’m a smoking snob and it wouldn’t be Mgoblog without the niche interest snobs.

Stuck. The line moves so the books can hedge their risk. You bet early to lock in a spread you think is favorable to what you think the outcome will be be. You can also bet early to allow yourself the opportunity to hedge or closer to the game if the line makes a big move.

Vertical smoker, the fuel…

Vertical smoker, the fuel box must come out of the bottom (smoke box) completely to light using the method you describe (which I do more or less). The issue is with getting lit fuel back in without dumping a bunch of unlit on the ground. 
 

if I could lite in situ, it would be much better. It’s too difficult to light a small amount wax cube inside the box. 
live never seen a torch used before so the details of how to do it and how long it takes would be useful to me I think.
