Apparently you missed this picture, HJ. The workers are bringing in the new urinal trough in sections. It will be a big one.
You guys can thank me for this. I made a large donation last week to cover the total cost. When you guys use it, please think of me.

Its a concrete slab with a stripe of brick texturing. The brick area gets painted red to match the Yordon as they wrap up.

You can see it will match the exact brick work from the pictures. Just hasn't been painted yet.

The original renderings had the same color brick but it was changed to black.

I can't take looking at the rendering with the three dogs because we know what they're going to look like.

I thought that was your own personal trough they were putting in for you?

Oh, no, this one is for the common folk. My personal trough is gold plated and is located in a secret room under lock and key. However, I may have to let others use it because a trough for only one person sort of defeats the purpose. I will start taking applications closer to the opening of the CPC. Of course, you will need to submit a picture of yourself at a urinal trough so that I know you won't conflict with me or the aesthetics of my trough. I may also have to charge an annual fee for the privilege of combining your urine with mine.

Question: Urinal Cakes, Pro or Con?
Oh, no! We're goung au naturel. Can't take the aroma? Go urinate in someone else's trough! However, I will have a can of Glade stored discretely by the trough in case anyone accidently releases any other aromas while using the urinal. You will be expected to apologize to others at the trough and then use the Glade to mask your indiscretion.

What?? And not get preferred seating for EIU?? This could be a sellout with huge demand!
Hey, don't sell EIU short.....they could be a powerhouse this Fall, according to the Charleston Herald/Tribune/Gazette/Daily Record (one of these has to be right)
Is Tony Romo coming back for one more season?
No, I think Tony will enjoy a nice fat contract, courtesy of our Cowboys GM (that would be JJ).......he owns the team and he'll do whatever he wants.

RE: The CPC is really big! one new picture!
All joking aside, the rough sculptings of the 3 huskies we saw earlier was a joke, right? That rough etching was a train-wreck, even if it was a freebee... Compher seems more in tune with reality than to let that heinous sculpture surface on campus!?!?!?!!

As far as I know, it was no joke. Of course, it would be subject to final changes/refinements, but I think what we saw is basically what we get.
I think that if what we saw is indeed the final product, between the rabid dogs and the PigDog, we will be the laughingstock of anyone who visits the Huskie Stadium area.
If all it takes is a donation to put up a statue with no one reviewing quality, I think I'll donate money to have a statue of me put up outside the Convo. It will be life-like (which will be disgusting), and I'll be partially nude. The saving grace is that not many people come to the Convo, anyway.
