Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them cracks and splinters. That is the "loser," and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round. I have found that, in general, the brown and red M&Ms are tougher, and the newer blue ones are genetically inferior. I have hypothesized that the blue M&Ms as a race cannot survive long in the intense theatre of competition that is the modern candy and snack-food world. Occasionally I will get a mutation, a candy that is misshapen, or pointier, or flatter than the rest. Almost invariably this proves to be a weakness, but on very rare occasions it gives the candy extra strength In this way, the species continues to adapt to its environment. When I reach the end of the pack, I am left with one M&M, the strongest of the herd. Since it would make no sense to eat this one as well, I pack it neatly in an envelope and send it to: M&M Mars, A Division of Mars, Inc. Hackettstown, NJ 17840-1503 U.S.A. along with a 3x5 card reading, "Please use this M&M for breeding purposes." This week they wrote back to thank me, and sent me a coupon for a free 1/2 pound bag of plain M&Ms. I consider this "grant money." I have set aside the weekend for a grand tournament. From a field of hundreds, we will discover the True Champion. There can be only one.
 
I'm going to get a cup of coffee and go home. Enough of this work stuff.....

Great job by Amore filling up space with exactly zero new information.

Reiterating that he prefers the UConn job if the money is close enough is reassuring since he also said our offer is in the ballpark

If we were all smart and caring, we would have set up a charity drive to donate a penny everytime someone posted something about UCONN's next coach....this board singlehandedly could have saved the polar bears, cured the state deficit and would be working on ending world hunger by now

or paid for a sweet signing bonus, especially if it were a penny per view.

Its a good bet they looked for DNA and took your finger prints from that returned M&M. Nuts like you need to be monitored.

Eh, I don't have confidence that Amore's information isn't old.
 
Anyone else worried Louisville might get in on this action? Was this talked about in one of the previous 60 pages I skipped over?
