So, fND and USC have now agreed to play each other in 2030 and 2031.

ND is dropping Indiana as a result.

Who would have guessed fND's schedule would be easier by adding USC

apparently, his hometown in Texas - born in nearby Lubbock

Muleshoe is a city in Bailey County, Texas, United States. It was founded in 1913, when the Pecos and Northern Texas Railway built an 88-mile line from Farwell, Texas, to Lubbock through northern Bailey County. In 1926, Muleshoe was incorporated. As of the 2020 census, Muleshoe had a population of 5,160.

Nobody but C-Dub and those on this board influenced by him, call him that.

Who believes IU will still be good in 2030/31?

If Cignetti is there, IU will be good.

I predict Freeman to the NFL before 2030.

I only started referring Lincoln Riley as Muleshoes after lurking the Sooners message board, DirtBurglars. DirtBurglars is a strange bunch, but were justified in being put-off by Riley's punchable, know-it-all-ness. Before and especially after Muleshoes bailed on the Sooners. Muleshoes is an entertainingly fitting nickname; makes Riley deservedly sound like an oaf and/or a dingus.

If you're lurking on message boards with dirt burglars, you got a whole host of OTHER problems. ;)

Small world.

Found my birth mother a few years back.  Was handy to have had a mother as a legal secretary that had access to the courthouse files.  I was doing an adoption case, asked a question, and she pulled out the doc--like she wanted me to know.  A google search found her TX marriage license.  A Facebook search with that name and I had pics and a basic idea of her life.

She grew up in Muleshoe, TX.  

My middle daughter just spent the weekend with her, as she is done with her Austin Air B&B stay and went there before she's to get home tonight.

The other wild co-incidence I discovered today is still required to be kept on the down low.  It's quite sensative at the moment.

Wow, fascinating story.  Anyone else adopted?  (I know one other.)

Friends of mine had three adopted kids, one they couldn't manage at all, female.  They were legitimate "do gooders".

I am. Never tried to find the birth parents.

I do wish I knew some health history.
