Gruehls — good to hear from you! Don't be a stranger.
You do know, though, that Belleville (which made national news because of the black kids wailing on an innocent white kid on the school bus — perhaps you got wind of that) is on the east side of the Arch?
howdy brother Thicks.
my best wishes to you and yours, as well as to all the good guys i've already engaged.
it is of zero comfort to me to read about high schoolers repeating the idiocy of foregoing generation.
a joyful Christmas to you and yours. go Billikens, in all things except confrontations with UC.
be well,
g

Hey, Bishop -- beware of this guy. His kid started at SLU and transferred to ND. You probably saw him from time to time passed out under the Sorin statue with a bottle of 25-year-old Scotch. (Or perhaps both of them.)
i hope you are referring to seeing me under the Sorin statue, and not my youngest. i've got a file somewhere of all the the pix sent to me when i was inebriated. my girls started a facebook thingy for me; they called it "defacement book." i threatened a lawsuit against them and made them take it down.
again, best to you and yours Joe.
know what they call a phony SLU fan?
a counterfeit Bill.

My favorite opposing team poster!
my favorite opposing team admin.
are we still opposing anythings?
We started football, the first forward pass was by a Billiken. I think your club uses it a 'bit. Good luck in New Orleans
let me guess; it was intercepted and never attempted again.
but yeah, the Bearcats are inclined towards the occasional downfield toss.
Hey now, I think we put you on the Billikens.com t-shirt
i bought my way onto that eminently forgettable fashion abomination.
We still got Roy...
good. keep him. west of the gateway arch preferably.
Didn't you hear? It's Taj's b-day. We still got the old guys around
i saw that. i reckon that contributed to my resurrection here. taj old dog, happy b-day.
You too good sir. Don't be such a stranger.
thnx Steve. just keep that '72 goof away from my skyline stash.
good luck billikens!

HIGH######INGFIVE.
been awhile ladies and gents.
hey, youse guys start football, we'll put you on the schedule.
i read this thread and wondered "who the heck is pushing this train wreck?"
just pondering; how did this board accumulate the detritus of juvenile maunderings boards?
once upon a time, there was nothing here but the best and the brightest a jesuit education offered.
where did all the old-timers go? glad that gruehls the youngest isn't exposed to such effrontery any longer!
on a serious note, best holiday wishes to all of my once-upon-a-time SLU friends. run the table in that league with XU.

...And Gruehls, Mr. Porridge boy shows up! Go figure. Accusing me of shilling for Lancome? Don't really get that. But at my age there's alot of things I don't get. Like my skyline! You still cheering for the Cats or have you now switched to Green, Gold, and Navy. The Damers just can't get their colors right, can they?
thread title: team makeup.
lancome: manufacturer of makeup.
still cheering for the 'cats.
who'd a thought a few years ago that UC would have bragging rights in football, and the domers would have them in hoops?
hope all is well slu.
my apologies to the board for hijacking the thread.

There has to be a "Who's your daddy?" joke here somewhere, but I can't think of one. "SLU's your daddy?" Are you still a SLU daddy?
hello joe. what do you know?
i regret to inform you that my "SLU daddy" status terminated at the end of number 2 son's freshman year, after which he transferred to the land of the golden dome.
as for the "who's your daddy" jokes, i'd steer clear; slu72 still doesn't know the answer.
-
IT IS ALIVE!!!
howdy roy.
rumors of my demise were greatly exaggerated, and so on and so forth.
-
i saw this thread title, i saw you initiated it, and i figured you were on here shilling for lancome.
-
thnx b&w.

thnx guys.
appreciate the input.

...other knowledgeable st.louis denizens, any thoughts on a good restaurant for a young slu student on valentine's day?
much appreciated.

i gotta tell ya; on my tombstone, i hope they add "he was sighted on the billiken board, and often died there."
and i'd like to be buried in my billiken.board blue.

well dang! now i'm weeping over how my thread has been hijacked.
bonwich, my dog's breath smells like cat. better check on how your lil feline is faring.
bbill, i picked up on the "avoid the east" as we headed west.
scriv, wow! having a child at xavier u is a pain unique unto itself. thnx for commiserating.
doc, thnx for the advice.
b&w, thnx for mentioning both northwestern and vanderbilt.
junior is working on hoops tix for a weekend game when we visit. i hope for the chance to hook up with you fine fellas.
uh, i gotta say it: "GO BILLIKENS!"
p.s. slu72, i am personally working to ban internet access at trailer parks. in doing so, i have you in mind.
-
thanks Roy, and except for the ever-annoying slu72, thanks for all the other suggestions.
it is a lovely campus.

...as I entrust my youngest to the SLU faculty and facilities.
collective advise invited: what does a new SLU student need to know about life in St. Louis?
-
>Does the kid drink Scotch? I still owe the family a big debt
>:-) >
i hope not.
geez joe, he's 18. thus far, not much opportunity to acquire a taste for the single malts.
-
>You Cry a lot....
that's a function of getting in touch with my inner billiken.
-
>i cant wait to see gruehls in his billiken blue wear.
now i'm weeping again.
-
...because the youngest gruehls will soon be a billiken.
where, oh where, did i go wrong?
steve, is "sluehls" available on the board?
how'm i ever gonna live this down?
-
>that a picture of gruehls wearing a "slu student dad"

rumor has it that several camera packing locals have tried, and failed, to memorialize yours truly in his "Billiken.com" tee shirt.

can't bad-mouth uconn; they just beat us, though we had a shot at 'em. if we hadn't lost kirkland, we really could have whipped 'em.
my daughter is a senior at ohio state so it's unlikely she'd be shopping for SLU gear. my youngest is a senior at St. Xavier high school here and he's the one looking at colleges now.
as for retirement, you're older than me. also more familiar than me with mesh backed rayon, or any type of rayon, i have no doubt. for that matter, you have a lot more recent experience with crayons. try to stay within the lines, willya?
if you never tried single malt pancake syrup, don't criticize it.

get a life, puny. get a comprehension of the english language while you're at it, or just get some crayons and a coloring book or 2, and avoid any keyboard. you thought your exercise regimen was meaningful to whom? wow! 5'6! your avatar looks like something swiped from tom cruise in "risky business."
now, to those who matter. Rich and Roy, one of you at least would like to see the resumption of a series with UC. i'd like to see that too. Roy, i actually stopped by to challenge the SLU gridiron all-stars to a game against the UC hoopsters. it'd be 11 on 5, but UC would still win by a few TDs.
men, it's hell to be ranked #3 in the country, and staring down tebow in the Sugar Bowl.
steve and thicks, and 72, thnx for always being good sports.
oh, and Roy, let me know how many UC/Sugar Bowl tees you'd like.
best for the holidays to Billikens everywhere.
