Ever destined to be just out of reach.  Crap, thanks Utah.  At least it sounds like BYU and TCU are staying put for awhile.  Now I have to figure out how why it's worth it to change to Direct TV when I hate Direct TV.


In the same way as some are famous for their lives, and others are famous for their deaths, Tantalus 1 became famous for the manner of his punishment in the afterlife. He was made to stand chin-deep in water with fruits just over his head, and whenever he tries to drink or eat, the water recedes or the fruits are lifted out of reach. And this torment, through which something seems to be offered only to be withdrawn again, has been called, in memory of its best known victim, "tantalize".
