Not currently in the plans, but my neice is at UTK. I might be able to work something out to meet here (we play UT this weekend in Oxford, and I may get to go watch us lose at home). I'm not sure if she's going to the game, but she may be headed back to Memphis for the weekend (a series of other hand offs to her sister who comes to New Albany frequently might get them into the Oxford area
). Let me know what you're thinking and I'll see what she has planned for the upcoming weekend.

I hear you, Chris. Luckily, the only pests I'm aware of right now are 'planaria', which are snacks for many of my wrasses (no planaria in any of my displays where the wrasses are (I've become a bit of a wrasse freak over the last few years), but they live en masse in the umbilical tanks with only clowns and the like in them). I've got something going on in my SPS tank right now, but haven;t seen any signs of the classic SPS pests (primarily looking for AEFW's since they are such a PITA). I suspect my multiple large mithrax crabs, as I've seen them tugging on polyps. I'm losing about 1 coral every week and a half right now, and all the damage happens at night. Time for crab trap to verify that they are causing the problem...
Pests always seem to pop up when your bubble gets the biggest (they seem to enjoy the popping sounds of the big bubbles of contentment we subconsciously blow up in our heads). I'd be glad to take anything you can gather up. I got really excited when they go so excited to see such oddities. They loved the Eunicid. Anytime someone else see the same thing that makes me excited, I get even more excited. Only a few people down here who can appreciate oddities (myself fitting that description
).

His last three (played) games have been pretty good (though the Auburn game only saw 203 total yards of offense out of him). He had 260 total offense against Arkansas, for some reason didn't play last week, then had the 312 yards of total offense yesterday. If you look back over his stats over the years, last year was his first big one, but they didn't give him a chance to even do anything until the Arkansas game this year. It might be a different season if we'd taken the ball out of Sneads hands earlier and let McCluster do his thing... We've got a good defense (Alabama, who I think is grossly overrated after seeing some of the near losses lately, had five 2nd and goals from the 2 and had to settle for five fieldgoals-they can' seem to score touchdowns against the SEC very much this year as you also saw in the Tn game). However, the defense didn't show up against Auburn (they got burned on the same play time after time after time after time after time...). The offense rarely shows up against anyone, so we rely on the defense to stop the hemmorhaging of points, so the offense can have their 2-3 minutes of almost decent play during the game to keep the games close. I don't consider big wins over the likes of Tiger High, SE La, and North Arizona to be a sign of anything other than that they were just bad teams...
