TAD = a little bit, as in "It's a tad chilly tonight"

5150 = crazy, from the relevant section of California law that allows involuntary confinement of the dangerously crazy.

So, "TAD 5150" = "A little crazy"

Sorry I'm late getting back to you but you guys got it. Most don't get the 5150 unless you're in law enforcement or related field.

HA ha ha ha.

this year might be the third year in a row when A&M beats t.u.

Saw 'em Off!!
