all that. So, uh, coming up, uh, Monday, we'll be celebrating St. Patrick's day again. So we'll probably talk about that a little bit, but we've also got some other stuff to, touch on as we get through this fun episode. out yeah ah gene you Why do I feel like this is going to be a condescending Tom podcast? I am kind of off. yeah yeah Which is weird because just had a burn to but ah yeah yesterday had a birthday. I did. Is that what's got your shillelagh a little twisted?
00:01:49
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
No, I don't care about that. I don't that not care that you're 56. Old as fuck. You're past double nickels now. I don't care. Everything's downhill after. i don't care. as tom I'm still younger than you.
00:02:00
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I don't care. Okay. Well, you'll always be younger than me. I know. That's the beauty. um I'll never be the oldest guy at the table. um No, really, that does it does not bother me. Birthdays have never bothered me. I'm curious Jeff's thought on that statement. Unless you're the last one standing, then he will be. I might be. Yeah, you're right.
00:02:16
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
That's a good point. but i don't think Tom will be. Not with his family history. and yeah yeah i think I mean, just be truthful. Honestly, i the over-under on me is about five years. Okay. Look at family history. Historically, yeah Well, immediate mother and father. i mean, my grandparents lived to the 80s, but... Yeah. Yeah, so... it could Maybe it skips a generation. It's been good knowing you, Tom. ah Yeah. so either Either we got five more years left or you got...
00:02:48
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
30. Some perspective there. So shouldn't you start training somebody on how to operate the board? but Just saying. No, we couldn't that. We couldn't that. Seriously, if something happens to Tom, we're going to be off for a few weeks until we get this shit figured out.
00:03:05
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
We're going to have to recruit Bayar to come by and help us out. his So Dixter turns 88. was going to say. Whoa. Dang. Yeah, he's got a birthday coming up. Wow.
00:03:16
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
That's awesome. It's a birthday. So cool. So, uh, did you do anything fun over the week? No. Okay, good. Link. I did nothing fun at all, but I was busy the entire week. How'd the cabinets go? We got some stories though. It doesn't have to be fun. There's this story. Yeah. I, uh, Brett almost disowned me as a best friend. i think on Thursday, I will, I will. Oh, I was fine. i I was going to say, did he disown you or were you about to disown him?
00:03:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I think it was the other way around. I was like, which way did I go? I was so over that freaking project. So, i mean, think about... Taking everything out of your cabinets. Well, first, before you do i went involved with that, before you do that, you have to clean your garage out so you have room to put anything.
00:04:04
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
But the cabinets didn't go in the garage. the The cabinet shit, it was all sitting in our family room. Because I'm like, if we put the garage, we just have to bring it right back in. So it went in either a tote or a cardboard box and went into the middle of the family room floor.
00:04:19
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
and just sat there yeah so for uh reaching out so yeah brett brett came over on thursday for several hours and cleaned up the garage i mean it it actually it actually we can get our garbage cans back in the garage now that's cool that's cool get a car in there dude we probably could get a car in there so after all the cleaning how much shit did you actually get rid of we we have uh well two trips two trips to goodwill yeah Okay. And I think we have more coming. Okay. Because as we as we put stuff back into the cabinets, I started today because the cabinet guys came today, fixed the cabinets up. Apparently, they they didn't shim the bottom. So we have double ovens right on top of each other. And apparently, that's the one where they said it started because that it was it was heavy enough. It just started pulling away from the wall and just kind of started twisting.
00:05:08
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
cool and everything yeah so anyway so they they shored that back up on made it made it straight even level whatever shimmed it on the bottom and they're like okay this shouldn't happen again i'm like okay and if it does it's gonna be out of warranty i'll call you so by then so that was that was a giant uh it's just it was just a lot of work come on just a lot of work i think so are the cabinets done now They are done. They are completely done. They were there for and you can reload and everything a few hours. Yes, they were there for a few hours this morning.
00:05:40
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
um I thought they were rebuilding the entire interior of all the boxes, the cabinets. We got the shipment in on Tuesday, and I'm like, I texted Nancy and sent her a picture, current wife, and sent her a picture, and i was like There's no way. There's no way they're rebuilding all the cabinets. So they had to they had to for sure rebuild one, and then the other ones they basically just, ah I don't know.
00:06:07
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Re-anchored? Put a few more screws in and said, there you go. Should be good. I'm like, all right, whatever. Oh, there you go. So, yeah. I actually feel like you're leaving part of the story out, Link. What's that? So, like, one of my God-given skills. I don't have that many.
00:06:21
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
But it's just to to find that one thread that I can pull on and just keep pulling that thread. And I didn't know this until later in the evening, but my man, I knew. That was a thread you shouldn't be pulling? Well, I knew he was frustrated, so i was just trying to make light of the situation. But I do have the inability to figure out when I should shut the fuck up.
00:06:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So I found out later that night that my man went inside and threw his wallet against the wall out of frustration. I had my wallet in my pocket for some reason. I walk in, and you guys know my house. So you walk through not the breezeway, but through the laundry room, utility area. And then you kind of get into the hallway before you walk in the kitchen and the family room combined area. And as soon as I got into that combined area, my wallet went over the island.
00:07:12
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
And all the way over into the corner where the windows are, where they where the kitchen is. Holy shit. So you threw it oh i threw it all the way to from the window? Oh, yeah, yeah. From the walls from to the windows? Yep.
00:07:23
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Yep. Yep. There's something dripping down my balls. Until the money fell out of my wallet. Yep. So anyway, I went in, I don't know, 30 or so minutes later. and I was like, well, sit to my current wife.
00:07:36
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Well, I guess I had to get my wallet. Yeah. She goes, I already got it. It's fine. to go all and And my driver's license and credit cards and debit cards, everything's still in there?
00:07:49
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Like, yeah, I picked it all up. yeah i don't There was just something about that damn project. I just – I wasn't – Well, no. was at the end That was me. I was at the end. That was 100% me pulling that same thread like 19 straight times. I think Brett's accurate. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, that's always absolutely true. Anyway, but thank you anyway. I appreciate your help. Thanks for nothing, Danny. Thanks for nothing, Danny. We allowed that.
00:08:13
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
We did. Yes, yes, yes. I can actually see garage floor for the first time in about, I don't know, four years. so Brett's going to start a side hustle. Yeah, that's my second garage cleanup of last week. Like garages are Brett.
00:08:26
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So grb when ah Northern Irish Twin and Blocky moved in, like half of their stuff that they brought with them ended up in our garage. Right. And it's still in our garage. Right. So there there were just reposition there were boxes of clothes. Did that end up at Goodwill?
00:08:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
ah No, I don't think so. But there were boxes of clothes I was bringing in, and Northern Irish Twin was like, where the freak has this been? Right. but I was wondering where this went, and I didn't know. And yeah there was a pair of sweatpants that Blocky swore he had worn since they moved into our house.
00:09:03
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Didn't even unpack them. No way he wore those sweatpants and then threw them back in a box in the garage and buried it. Under other boxes. Under other boxes. Yeah.
00:09:13
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
There's no f freaking way you've worn these sweatpants. yeah So anyway. yeah you You learn a lot about people when you do stuff like this, right? I'm sure you do. I think being environmentally conscious is a good thing, all this. Absolutely.
00:09:26
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Mr. Holier-than-fucking-now here, though. There is a bag there's a bag of stuff that should not be thrown away in the regular trash, but it's in the middle. I'm like, dude, if we can – His trash can – the trash can's right there. like, let's just put it – we can't do that.
00:09:42
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
That's Toxaway stuff. I'm saving for Toxaway day. It's like all kinds – like sprays and like dude aerosol stuff. if we get this out of the way here, this frees up a little bit, you right? I'm like, who cares? I mean, be environmentally – The other 364 days be great in fireball. Let your morals slide right now. yes I think that's the thread I kept pulling at for a while. that was sad Why are we doing this? I put it to the side and it was just fine, but he kept saying, just throw that away. It's in the way. I was like, it's off to the side now. I'm sick of moving it. so
00:10:14
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
but Were the aerosol kids? Yeah, yeah, like okay ah yeah. just ah Just a bunch of different stuff. Some spray paint. Some empty, some not. Some half full. Anyway. See? ah anyways That's what saying.
00:10:26
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You can put it in the trash. Save the world 300. I think we had this conversation Friday. We did. We did it on Friday. I thought we did. Okay. Friday when, yeah. I said you could put it in the trash. It sounded like Friday was a good day. They started. they were well Well, it started bad, I think.
00:10:39
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
It got off to a rough start. Yeah, a rough start for some, but it ended up a pretty good day. was going to say, how did your weekend begin? Like that? Yeah. I have all kinds of time to do projects now. so yeah. Uncle Linky is jobless right at the moment. So my man comes off a Thursday night of me making him throw his wallet against the wall.
00:11:02
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Friday morning of picking a ball of, hey, we're eliminating a position here. I should have walked in that meeting and said, you guys do not want to fuck with me today. today Today's not today. Let me go Monday, but not today.
00:11:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
so yeah Yeah, just did down, they just sales have been way, way down at the company. so And Friday was my day. They let a bunch of other people go. a bunch. They let an handful of other people go. It's not and a large employee-based company. Not very large. No, no, no.
00:11:31
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Percentage-wise, it is a bunch. at the At the most I think they ever had was like 30. thirty Yeah. 32, something like that. so if you're letting go of 10 to 15% of your workforce, that's significant. That's 10% of your workforce. I think now we're down to like – Thanks, Tom.
00:11:50
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
We're down less than 20 now. They let a couple people go about a month ago, and then two more of us. That's actually 11.2%, Jeff. So somebody else moved to another part of their company, blah, blah, blah. So anyway, they're down to basically just management and sales guy. So anyway, whatever.

00:13:00
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Other than it was planned, but it was not planned for four hours. It was kind of funny because the the the text message always comes out like, Friday late morning, hey, who can meet for lunch? And then it was kind of like a roll call.

I didn't get the hangout for four hours, but anyhow, I would have liked to have been working Tom. yeah So did you do anything else over the weekend? like No.
00:14:48
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Fuck the rest of the weekend. that was it How about you, Brett? How was your weekend? I actually had a pretty good weekend. Uh, had a little coaches meeting, ah into season foaling events. Um,

A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I was gambling Friday night. Your Monte Carlo night. was I give Mary my chips. Oh. And then I let her play poker, too. You got it. No, I just. You're fishing chips or just the chips?
00:15:14
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Yeah. It's been a while since we played poker in the back, I think, Tom. like She's more of a five-card stud person. um I'm not sure.
00:15:25
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Wow. Okay. So, ah wow yeah, I ran into a couple of wrestling people. we just talked wrestling. Really? Other people. Hang on. When you run into wrestlers, what do you guys talk about? Usually?
00:15:37
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You talk about wrestling? That's weird. That's just really weird. Crazy. Some of the best things are when you can talk about wrestling, but also other stuff. It becomes uncomfortable when you can only talk about wrestling. Hang on. I have never heard you talk to another wrestler about other stuff. Oh, yeah. I just never have. Okay.
00:15:55
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Maybe it happens. It's like a friggin' – Boy, the unemployed use a fucking dick. It's like a unicorn. I've never seen It's condescending light. I picked the wrong person. You did. first you Who knew was your week? You don't want to fuck with me tonight, Brad. Maybe Monday, but not today. You're lucky we're not married. You're lucky we're not married.
00:16:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Oh, my goodness. So I had a cool experience, though. There was a – so off-seasons already started with wrestling because that's how it works. Yeah. So went to a tournament, and Kylie was working that tournament as a physical – as a trainer, but, like, trainer assistant.
00:16:29
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Yeah. Cool. So it was cool to just have her in that environment sort of with me. So I got to hang out with her a decent amount. Awesome. Awesome.
00:16:40
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
uh the is a two-day thing i was only there saturday that and sunday she got yelled at by one of the coaches uh made her cry which just pisses me off and i'm like hey man you want to come down there i'm like i'm fucked it i'm not putting up with this shit because a lot of us we all know each other sure sure sure right you know that that's your kid i don't i don't know if he does but she even told him she's like you know i'm a student And it turns out that at least the way that she told the story, I'm sure he has a different version, but the referee should have controlled things. It's not up to the trainer to anyway.
00:17:16
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So ah you guys have known me long enough. I don't tell hardly any wrestling stories about myself, but I know this guy, he does carry himself like a complete prick, like condescending Tom times 10.
00:17:27
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
um Whoa. Yeah. Whoa. Wow. Can imagine? Yeah. Whoa. I can't. So I'm like, hey, Kylie, wait until she left. I'm like, if it makes you feel better, I beat the shit out of that kid when we wrestled back.
00:17:41
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
ah like She's like, it it it does make me feel better. That great listen is awesome, Brett. i've I've probably never gone to that car, but I'm like, whatever. Here's the right time to go. That's awesome. Yeah, your old man kicked that old man's ass. I was proud of her. She got to do...
00:18:05
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
That's what she's going to school for. Yeah, and and wrestling's a unique sport where there's multiple injuries. It's not just concussions or an ankle or something like that. Yeah, yeah there's there's a wide range of stuff. So really pretty good experience. And she seemed to have a fun time.
00:18:19
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Cool. Awesome. yeah Cool. I cleaned up the yard. you? I told you guys last week i ain't doing shit this weekend. And I didn't except for working the yard. I cleaned up the yard.
00:18:30
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
and No. Saturday, cleaned up the garage a little bit. Got some stuff organized. Didn't ask me to help. We haven't done the full cleaning You heard from Wink about the way you like to clean up garages.
00:18:42
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
when i get the Leave your wallet inside. if i coach you When I get the dumpster, I'll give you a holler. Put wallet in a drawer. Started planning how I'm going to get the garage finally completely organized. i only been there for four years, five years.
00:18:53
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
and So we'll get it figured out. um What's the rush? It's over. Exactly. As long as you have children, it'll never completely be because nobody puts anything away. My favorite is when they take the trash out and they leave it in the garage instead of taking it out and putting it in the can because that extra five-foot walk, it'd probably kill you. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, but anyhow. To go that extra.
00:19:16
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I got a beer right here. I know. Calm down. was going to point out we picked these up. ah The ah Conway Irish Ale from Great Lakes Brewing. The Twitty. Grabbed those on the Jungle Jim's Adventure that we talked about a couple weeks ago. It's not a bad beer. It's not horrible. so but then ah oh you see So the weekend was pretty low key. We did go take the kids to dinner one night, but nothing but no big deal. Yeah, it's not exciting. Then ah last night. Did you get free meal?
00:19:39
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Nope. Nope. All right. I wish. What about a blowjob for your birthday? No, I have to tell you this. So, Saturday night, this is what makes me crazy about I know what's with tonight.
00:19:53
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Saturday night, we went to... ah but great story about you you know it makes me crazy about people they can't so we gotta go to whole bachi place and come on sharon we're all sitting there so it was just us and then this other group of three our family and then another group of three so seven people so there's a chair thank god between us um and uh everybody takes her drink order right super busy did you get covid from geisha again nope super busy And so the girl comes back, brings everybody's drinks, but if you ordered alcohol, she didn't have it, which is not uncommon. Never about you go to eat with Tom unless it's at rookie.
00:20:35
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So the group of three over here, clearly a husband, wife, and probably a mother, and they were older. So the husband and wife are age, mother, 80, 75, 80. eighty seven five eight So not a three-way situation. So...
00:20:50
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
The girl comes back with the drinks and the lady on the corner is like, excuse me. The old lady or the younger lady? Younger lady. Okay. Where are our drinks?
00:21:01
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
And the girl's like, well, I put the order in at the bar. yeah She's like, Jesus Christ, all you have to do is open a beer bottle. Wow. And I was like, oh, this is going to be the entire dinner experience. This bitch at my table. no And I'm like frustrated. so but It was not a long period of time yet.
00:21:21
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
And it was like, OK, so she was just like and she kept going. She had. and i was always that like maybe she's that was that like a no maybe um no like three but yeah Maybe it was a long period, and that's why she was in a bad mood.
00:21:36
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I don't think that woman's had a period in 30 years. but ah so She had to have on a dress. No, no, no. I'm not sure she had all her teeth either. But anyhow, so. what hos Okay, that leads me back to my question. Did you get a blowjob for your birthday? No, I did not. Okay.
00:21:51

00:26:10
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts

00:26:26
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Apparently, lot of the – no, he invented the internet, Tom. He didn't need a domain. He didn't have a domain. So oh a lot of ah the bigger companies, and they thought that the internet was just kind of a passing fad. They're like, this isn't going to catch on. yeah It's not a big deal. It's not going to catch on. Not everybody has a computer in their home, right? yeah Accessibility, all of that stuff. we are not jumping on this boat and starting to row. yeah. BBN.

00:38:21
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
iphon And I can't imagine how good... Because those seem difficult to play. I'm just going to say it's not like strumming a guitar. Not that I can do that either. But those seem like there's a level of...
00:38:32
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Skill. Skill there that seems very, very different. lot of years to perfect. And you've got to have good lungs. Yeah, but the dude... yeah Good pipes. The thunderstruck on the bagpipes is a legit effort.
00:38:43
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
It seems like ah most of them play like the same three or four songs. That's fair. Right? Yeah. i mean you And then sometimes you just hear like the the general sound of a bagpipe. You're like, is that even a song? are you just playing like the same six notes again and again? I don't i don't really know, but...
00:39:01
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
It's almost like the recorder. yeah With a bag of air. Yeah. It's a pipes. and It's a pipes coming out of it Yeah. Not saying it's not cool. No, it's very cool. You know what they make bagpipes out of?
00:39:12
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You know what they make the bag out of? Sheep's stomach? Good. Something. Yeah, that's good. That's sheep good. Yeah. That was just wild-ass guess. I'm pretty sure it is sheet because it's it's got to be something big enough to have a gut like that.
00:39:25
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
i mean, ah you want me to Google it? now All the pipes that come out is bull penis, I'm pretty sure. Yeah. I don't think so. yeah The bags, I thought was scrote. It's scrote off something, isn't it? Manufactured by the Bull Dick Company.
00:39:48
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
ah So anyway. And those are imported from Spain, by the way. Yeah, they are. Suck it. So we're also coming into the yeah conference basketball tournament. NCAA conference basketball tournaments are going on right now.

00:40:27
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I mean, if you're a sports fan, that's probably the best weekend of sport. Super Bowl is one day. It's historically, I think, because of the ah the upsets and the close the drama that exists because you don't you're not watching one event like you said. You're watching that first weekend.
00:40:47
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You're watching 32 games ye that that all of them – but Not all of them, but there's usually some level of significant drama in a handful of those games. It's like 12-plus hours of basketball yeah it's yeah for like i four days. it is the It is the largest or the highest percentage of vasectomies performed. Is that ah the week? That Wednesday or Tuesday. Right before all that starts. yeah Now, what I don't like is the the play-in stuff that they do, and I hate that.
00:41:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
yeah dude just stop just yeah i i totally agree yeah just put everybody in the tournament then and start yeah yeah yeah yep yeah megan make the season worth nothing so the but the the the coolest thing about that is we all have our favorite team right i mean i'm an iu basketball fan i'm root you know if they make the tournament i'm rooting for them but outside they're in now we'll see we'll see um But if I'm watching a 13 and four, ah a 13 seed play a four seed or whatever, however that number breaks down, 15 play a two, whatever that, I'm rooting for that 15 seed, especially if it gets tight the end. Yeah, it's fun. I don't care who that It's fun. You always root for the the underdog. Yeah. And so many schools you legit, I might say never heard of now because the world's so much smaller than it was 30 years ago. sure
00:42:04
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
But there's some, there was always a team. There's always school you're like, who yeah where the hell is that? Yeah. Yeah. Where's Fairley Dickinson at? Yeah. We just said it today. McNeese State?
00:42:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Yeah. We were talking about it. We were like, where the hell is that at? They're in their conference final right now south and We were up the bar and watched it. Did you look at it? Louisiana. Louisiana. but Something Louisiana. Yep. And they were playing making Lamar. McNeese, Louisiana.
00:42:28
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
They were playing Lamar, and they were from Beaumont, Texas. From Daymar? They're from Beaumont, Texas. lane I say that's a joke for the summer. Yeah, totally. That means nothing to nobody except three people. It was a good one, though.
00:42:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Three people in this entire world know what the hell that means. And they're all sitting right here. Hey, speaking of basketball. That's day drinking in April. Here's a thought. So when you drive into a city or town, they've got a sign up.
00:42:58
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
says, hey, state champions. Oh, yeah. get whatever Whatever. So here's one. I was going into Kokomo way back when I used to have a job. So when I had a job.
00:43:09
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So what, like Wednesday? i was driving Friday morning, Tom, until about 10, 15, I had a job. ah so I was driving into Kokomo. Here's a sign. ah state champions for such and such years as girls basketball state champions 1992 1993 and this is now come on how long's that ah so that's my question yeah when when should that never
00:43:40
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
oh come on no Really? it's Not in a small town like Community pride. Kokomo is not really a small town. Kokomo? but' i would I wouldn't put Kokomo in. Especially in Indiana comparison. i was a lot of small i was born in a small town, Tom.
00:43:58
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You'll probably lose your job in a small town.
00:44:04
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I threw out my wallet in a small town, Tom. Did you meet an L.A. girl and bring her to a small town? yeah No, I didn't. know Now she small she likes an anal just like me. Holy shit. Something's wrong with me tonight. Something is wrong with you. I apologize to all current wives. 6% beer you started with.
00:44:21
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
ah le yeah ninety two ninety three in two thousand three So So my on this, on this, though. Probably because they have nothing else to put on that side. that I was going to ask, correct if Kokomo hasn't won anything else, maybe i get it. But I don't know who determines, like, just you take where you guys live. Like, Brownsburg just had a record-setting.
00:44:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
ah wrestling state finals thing. don't know. Does that get up there? Yeah. but I mean, when you drive down 74. Avon has, I think, band. And you turn off towards Milan.
00:44:57
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
It still has state champion 1955. That one should be, though. That should 78 years ago. Right. Or however long it was. At least 70. 67. Whatever it was. We were talking about you guys are rooting for the small team. 45, 25. 35, 40, 45. Baby. Sold. this This Week in History? That's what I'm doing this week. this No, but you guys are talking about you always rooting for the underdog.
00:45:25
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
yeah That was a cool thing about the Indiana high school boys basketball state tournament back then. Yeah, for sure. Everybody was in one big gigantic ass tournament. There were no classes. There was none of that. It was one big – and when Milan did it in, what, 54?
00:45:39
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
everybody im not i don't know I don't know what happened in 54, but back then, I assume everybody was like, I want that little little team right there that I've never heard of. I want them to beat the big boys. Actually, I don't know if they were really the underdog. I mean, they had undefeated season. It was just that small school theory. Don't you they had to be the underdog, though? They were undefeated. Against Muncie Central. Yeah, probably. I'm just saying it wasn't – ah I know.
00:46:05
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
They didn't come out of nowhere. get it. Hoosiers, great movie. Great movie. And that's what that story is built off of. Yes. Yep. Absolutely. So when when does the sign come down? Sorry. Go ahead. you know thought You're good. You're good.
00:46:17
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
No, my thought is, is back when we were high school. It's when some drunk runs over it, I think. Yeah. It took me while to find that answer, but think that's what happens. Or somebody shoots it with a shotgun. An icy road and somebody's eye-to-eye. It puts bullet holes through it.
00:46:34
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
If you're in Indiana, that's typically when they take that sound. I wonder if the sign is the same on all sides of town as you come into town. Could be. Or is it on just one side? 31. Yeah, but is it – 31, 26. There's got to be a city limit somewhere else other than 31. I'd be curious what else Kokomo has won that could be up there. Yeah, probably nothing.
00:46:55
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Boys football. I think they've got a boys state. Yeah, but but back when we were in high school, what you said earlier a few minutes ago was absolutely correct. I went to a small Catholic school.
00:47:06
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
We were in Ben Davis section sectional every year. Mm-hmm. Which is a big, giant school. Big, giant school. You don't know Almost no chance. Exactly. yeah So had Ritter won a sectional title back then before class basketball, that would have been like winning their change state the state title so for sure back then. right Now they've watered it down so damn much.
00:47:28
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
It's been this way for 20-some odd years. They're never going back. And I get the other side of it that, hey, you know give these small schools a chance. Everybody gets a ribbon, blah, blah, blah, bullshit. But yeah, so now the the the small school coming up.
00:47:41
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
and winning at all that's not goingnna happen no i'm okay with the class idea ah but i don't think we should kid us it's all about money sure yeah as sort has nothing to do with uh you know history and integrity and the term tradition and that stuff it's we can make a lot more money if we have four different classes yeah yeah i just basketball have five now four football is six in indiana i think yep like there's some wrestling georgia has eight classes of wrest of wrestling yes good lord i didn't know that they were a wrestling powerhouse they are not because it's watered down ah okay okay so like yeah i mean you're stating like a state championship there is i don't know maybe equivalent to getting through a sectional or you know
00:48:29
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
it's It's apples and oranges. for Sure, sure. but Got a question for you boys. oh We haven't answered. We haven't answered my question yet, but go ahead. I didn't answer. I answered it. I answered it. You did. I said never.
00:48:42
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
No, that's right. What was your question? They'll never take it. When you take sign down, but it's it's good. it's It's not really. It's not really. i think I think it stays up until something else significant happens, and that's that's just it. I mean, that's the most significant high school sports thing that has happened there, and...
00:48:58
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
They haven't had anything since then. It's a community thing. So unless something happens where they win something, I don't think that sign changes. Or if a UFO happens to land in Billy Graves' backyard. Totally different. That's when a new sign goes up. Totally different.
00:49:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Totally different. Brett, got a question for you. Oh, what's for all of us now? It's just for Brett. In the morning. Each one of you can answer this. In Utah in the morning? which you do you put on first? ah no or No hesitation.
00:49:31
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Well, sock. Socks first. Okay. Well, i know that. Yeah. You put socks on before you put shoes on. but Which foot do you put on? Left. Liko? Left. so Me too.
00:49:43
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Every time. Okay. So let me let me ask you this though because I'm pretty sure I know the answer. Left or right-handed? Right. Right. Both. and Sure.
00:49:54
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Left. Which I find interesting because I would think if you're left-handed, it would be different. Be your opposite foot? yeah Yeah, but it's not. I've actually never thought about it. As soon as said that, like, yeah, I'm pretty sure it's always left. But you knew it automatically. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was sitting, and got out of the shower this morning, sitting on the edge of the bed.
00:50:11
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
but my i go, who I do this the same damn way here every fucking day. Who brought this to your attention? my Me and myself and I. And you you wrote this down. wrote it down. I wrote the question down. So I wouldn't forget it. This is like three times this year that you've written something down.
00:50:27
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
This is kind of the same in the ballpark. It's making nervous. Yeah. Same same same area. Do you got – I'm good. I know you are. so He's got to open his beard.
00:50:38
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
So another question. I'm getting bullied here. When you guys ah put your socks on, this legit question. Okay. Do you just grab two socks and throw them on, or do you literally have a a left sock and a right sock? No way.
00:50:53
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Sorry, no way to work. And not marked. I don't have left right. Some of the socks come in. It's like L and R on the bottom. I've got a couple pairs of socks that have that. But not that. I'm not talking about that. Just a regular pair socks with no markings. I'm throwing them on. I don't pay attention. You're anal that I have left and right. No, you don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your socks are shaped that way that you know. wear them one time. One time.
00:51:16
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
And you know which one's left and which one's right. No way. 100%. You pitch the head or something or what? Your socks curve? de Are times you missing a pinky toe? Your socks got Peroni's disease or what's going on over there? Is your big toe hooked to the left?
00:51:31
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
yeah No, i'm I'm telling you, i wear I get a brand new pair of socks. I put them on one time. They go into the wash. They go into the dryer. When they come out, I know which one is left and which one is right.
00:51:44
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
You're kidding me right now. If I pull two left feet. I'm calling bullshit on that. i know I can testify. i' too lefty Ask my car why. There have been times where you look at your socks and go, this is a left and this is a right. Fuck yes, I do. so like Link used to take for that close of a they used to take forever to get ready. and sometimes ah He puts his socks on and then he's changing his socks. I was like, oh, that's the left left side or whatever. i'm like, what the fuck are you talking about? 100%.
00:52:15
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
yeah hundred percent Yeah. Ask my current wife. did You can call bullshit all you want. I'm calling bullshit. I believe what you're saying. No, I'm calling bullshit because I don't know how you know. How you know. Yeah. I don't know how you know. there there ah they They do the way they're angled. They do form. The way they they form and they angle.
00:52:31
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
And you just – I just know. I hold them up. I'm like, oh, yep, that one goes on my left foot. That was on my left foot last time wore it, so that goes on my left foot. And I need to find my right sock. What happens if you end up with washer, a dryer full of all left socks? I never do, but sometimes – Well, then his right foot fell off his foot. Sometimes I pull it all in circle. Yes, yes. Then I'm fucked, Tom. I'm walking in circles all day. He's doing the three stooges.
00:52:56
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
Which takes us back to his garage situation. That's it was such a mess. so No, but there are some times when I pull two socks out of the dryer or the basket or whatever, I'm like, ah no, those are two lefties. Two left feet.
00:53:09
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
and I need to hear. Let me throw one of those back. Find the righty. Fish out another one. oh my God. You've got to be kidding me. No, and I do. That's not a joke. Guess what's going to happen to me now? You're going to start looking. When I'm doing fucking laundry, I'm going to be looking. If you hold them up, I guarantee you, you have some socks that are more formed to go on your right foot and your left foot.
00:53:28
A Solid 4 Beer Thoughts
I guarantee you. I agree with that statement. so Because if you don't, they may then it bunches up. So if you don't, you put them on it and it kind of, that that extra that's sticking out, now bunches up over your pinky toe. reality or yes Yes.
