We had a nice view here, but really, I don't think you missed all that much.  The air shows are a lot better than just a fly over.

Just really wanted the kids to see it, I've seen them maybe a dozen times, they used to do an air show every year at Bergstrom Air Force Base here in Austin.

There were plenty of facebook and youtube videos of it though.

Watching 1993 Miami @ FSU, and a crazy stat posted after FSU had a long TD run in the 1st quarter:
Miami hadn't allowed a first quarter TD run in 39 games!  I can't wrap my head around that.
And concurrently, they hadn't allowed a passing TD in the first quarter in 17 games.

The croissandwich and hash browns (tater tots) at Burger King are so good.  And yes, I order it without egg!!!

As the game winds down, their QB here and vs Nebraska in the 1994 season's Orange Bowl was Frank Costa.  He stunk.  But he's got me thinking...when was Miami's QB not the weak link?  
In the 80s, it seems like their QB was the strength of the team, from Kelly to Kosar to Testaverde.  But as the program grew and improved quickly, somewhere along the way, the QB became the weak link.  You could even argue they had a Heisman-winning 'weak link" in Torretta.  

I'm barely too young to know, but were Erickson and Walsh strengths?  

I view Dorsey as a Torretta - got awards and recognition...but was really just steering the Ferrari.  The mid-90s weren't kind to the Canes.

Walsh was good, but had some of the best weapons Miami has ever had.  My memory of Craig Erickson was that the 89 team won the title in spite of him.  He wasn't really the key, and was banged up and Toretta started the game they lost to FSU.   

 He was quite sharp his senior year.   BYU and ND just flat out beat Miami in 90.

Costa was not good but I felt his OL got trucked in that OB vs Nebraska.

The bacon, egg, and cheese croissantwiches are delicious.

There is something about a croissant in France that can't be duplicated here.  Costco comes somewhat close.  

I found that if I order one at Burger King or Arby's (back when I'd eat at such places) and pronounce it correctly, they would look at me like I was from Mars ...

A friend of mine refused to eat at Burger King, but I know she loves her breakfast foods.  So I just had her try one.  Loved it.  
No, it's not some fresh French croissant baked overlooking a vineyard.  But an english muffin is plain.  And fast food biscuits are....bricks.  
It's very likely overly sugared and overly salted, but if you tried it, you'd enjoy it.
