We took this letter very seriously. We asked for such a statement. They gave it to us freely. It says here unanimous vote was taken and yet when we look at Beebe's letter last night it says: `No we didn't really mean that,' and I find that to be rather difficult to digest.

So I was giggling about the Big 12 Meltdown, when a few "just in the nick of time" scenarios came to mind ... 

   I stooped to tie my shoe lace just as an I-beam swung wildly over head.
   I paused at the crosswalk to peer over my shoulder just as the brakes on the Mack truck went out.
   I chose to have another latte and missed my soon to be doomed flight.
   I waited to adjust my swim cap right as the life guard yelled TURD!

Oh wait, Tom Osborne and Harvey Perlman saw this coming all along didn't they?  Never mind.
