    The difference is the traffic on the 405 is pretty much 24/7. Not the case in Orlando though their traffic does suck now. Of course Miami and other places in Florida have shitty traffic during rush hour also. That's why I try to avoid those places. Gainesville not to those levels yet.

    I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard. It took about ten min to read it to my wife. My stomach hurts from laughing.

    Durian is an odoriferous fruit from SE Asia; it was candy made from the fruit. Very sweet, but smells like a mix between gasoline and the stinkiest dirty socks imaginable.

    Durian fruit is a common fruit in Southeast Asia. To people unfamiliar to it, it usually evokes feelings of utter disgust. One food writer said: “its odor is best described as pig-shit, turpentine and onions, garnished with a gym sock.” You are not even allowed to bring this stuff in to hospitals or hotels in South East Asia. In Singapore, they have signs that forbid you from taking it on the public transport system (see here). That is how disgusting it is. So, it makes a lot of sense to make candy out of it. Not.

    Wanna talk about Corral and how he's been acting during this process?

    He's been very vocal on social media about it. Apparently today made a comment on Instagram that he's not visiting this weekend unless we have a coach.

    Thoughts ??

    My theory on this whole thing is that Chip signed but didn't date the contract, and Stricklin & Co. agreed to wait until after the season to fully execute it. This would give them the confidence that he will be coach yet allow him to remain compliant with any clauses in his NFL contract. It would also make the insider reports that "Chip signed" accurate.

    Ugh, I have had durian during some time in Singapore. They don't allow it to be transported on public transportation and you can't bring it in a public building. It smells like a garbage dump in August. I have no clue why anyone at any time would have ever come across it and said "hey, that smells great" and consume it. The initial taste isn't THAT bad. The texture is WORSE than the smell. Think of what might happen to a ripe bananas if you left it out on a sidewalk all day in August. But as bad as the smell and texture is, the after taste is the worst part, and it doesn't go away. Drinking doesn't help, eating something else doesn't help, brushing your teeth doesn't help, mouthwash doesn't help, brushing teeth the next morning doesn't help, coffee doesn't help.....the only cure I found was time, and it took about 12 hours. To say there is no way I would try the candy version is.....not a chance in hell.

    If he "signed" wouldn't that prevent him from speaking with other teams?
