  1. I do like Rachel Nichols. She's very good at her job outside of the fact that she's good-looking.
  2. The only reason for anybody to ever watch SEC Network — outside of the Finebaum call-in show with the loonies — is Maria Taylor. Oh my.
  3. Regular deodorant doesn't hold up to well with a guy who sweats like I do.
  4. Why does it bother you so much? Live your own life and I'll like what I want to like and dislike what I want to dislike.
  5. Off the bone, mashed out as big as you can get it, then breaded and deep-fried Iowa style, on a big-horkin' bun with some pickle slices. Sorry, my mom is the spawn of an Iowa pig-farmer.
  6. Big part of the problem, my friend. I advocated for neither of these things.
  7. I think HC's problem is that he doesn't know the solution in the face of a fury of gun anger. And nobody from the gun side thinks there's a solution to be found beyond a heavily armored populace. I own a gun and have access to as many others as I want. I love shooting guns. Love the way they feel in my hands and love drilling a target dead-center — and I have plenty of experience doing so. Would plug anybody who wanted to get froggy. Now, from that standpoint, I have issues. Why are my concerns invalid?
  8. What does this say about third-generation German-Americans who still go out of their way to make sure their kids can speak HochDeutsch and Low-Saxon? As well as Midwestern English? Are they less American, even though Opa fought for the US after getting out of Germany just in time to avoid being conscripted into Hitler's Army? I know what you're going to say, but it's really no different than today's third-generation Mexicans or, dare I say, Arabs, teaching their kids their native language. Just a different skin color.
  9. I can't say about this guy. Theoretically the mental health care system would catch this. Of course, we all know about theories. My point being, if mental health care in this country, from the standpoint of the general citizenry, weren't stuck in the mindset of "lobotomize them all!" or to a lesser extreme "institutionalize them all!" we might have a lesser problem. Treatment goes a long way, but sadly the results aren't immediate enough to satisfy a "results now" culture.
  10. Didn't make it — I'm postponing for my July vacation. Just too damned hot the past two days with me driving a big black Caddy with black leather seats and black interior, and no A/C. Spent the past few days watching Netflix, cleaning house and drinking beer. I'll be working my side job the rest of the week, but that's kind of fun, actually. I get paid to exercise and meet people.
  11. It's going to have to be something European History-related, perhaps even Rusophile-specific, because I'm gonna have a blast trying to pronounce all those names while snoggered. I'm thinking the fall of the Czar leading up to the Bolshevik Revolution would be a great test for me whilst hammered. So many great Provisional Government names.
  12. Don't underestimate the power of familial shame as a driving force. Especially in the Islamic culture, which is even more hardcore anti-gay than than the Evangelical Christian culture.
  13. Should they? That's probably a whole 'nuther argument for a different thread. The jails aren't equipped to deal with those with mental illnesses, and most of those with mental illnesses shouldn't be anywhere near a jail.
  14. This is an article about when Morrissey appeared on the Carson show during Johnny's final year. Bill Cosby was the main guest. Pretty interesting. 25 Years Ago, Morrissey Ruined Bill Cosby’s Appearance on ‘The Tonight Show’ | NOISEY I did not see this because I've mostly always loathed late-night talk shows, and talk shows in general. But I watched plenty of Carson over the years and can easily envision all of this.
  15. I'm hearing he's already been tabbed for Mean Machine III.
  16. Somehow, every one of those cells that were moving North to South managed to break up before hitting us in Bardstown. Lots of thunder, but no rain. We kind of need it.
  17. I'm a lot less worried about those burly guys getting their employers hit with lawsuits than I am the wannabe MMA guys who sign on to be a bouncer for the explicit purpose of testing out their scrapping skillz. Those jackasses cause far more problems.
  18. I can't view most of your attachments, SF. I feel like I'm missing out on some Holy Ghost Big Bang Theory Pentecostal Fire And Brimstone Mission Temple Fireworks Stand.
  19. We can't talk about this shooting and its repurcussions intelligently and avoid politics being brought into it. I wish it were otherwise.
  20. All I see out of that are stupid OK Corral shootouts by a bunch of idiots buoyed by 12-ounce courage, proclaiming "It's my right!" Just dumb.
