Jimmy Johnson. No, not that Jimmy Johnson. Not the other one either. The one that played for the 49ers in the 60s. His career was derailed by a blindside crack back block that blew out his knee. Was said to be the best cornerback in the NFL before the injury. Was said to be the reason they made cra...

Yes, we desperadoes are always living it up! Going on cruises and such!

Headed to DFW Saturday with one of my oldest friends to catch Vandoliers and Sam Morrow at some free concert series they put on in Arlington during the summer. Bringing home my wife’s favorite meal ever (fried chicken from Babe’s Chicken Dinner) for a Mother’s Day dinner. It was her idea for me to ...

Can’t believe they are still making Planet of the Apes movies. Charlton Heston starred as a strapping bare-chested astronaut in the first one, and if he was still alive, he’d be (literally) 100 years old.

So, I have always liked Bob Seger's Get out of Denver. I also have always liked Welshman Dave Edmunds. This may not be as good as Bob Seger's Live Bullet version, but it’s still fun to listen to and it’s an excellent video.

I don’t know if it will do any good, but I would file a complaint report.

Reminder to not tune it to KEXP. God I hate the fucking Pixies. Rush, I was surprised to learn today that Albini was no fan of the Pixies. Perhaps this will comfort you: Albini didn't like the Pixies—in fact had called them "an average college rock band." (The actual quote is worse: "...

I had to laugh, Syb. Because I did hear that we are likely to be the "young people" on our cruise. But, the people we are traveling with hate Trump just like we do, so we'll be fine, there. The cruise is in 2025, so the election will be history, so likely we won't hear about Trump, or we w...

Last time we discussed DJT stock, it was in free fall. It went down from the $70 range to the low 20s. But, for no good or apparent reason, it has taken on helium again. Up to $54 at today's close. I looked into buying some put options to bet against the stock, and only did not because they were too...

I'd point out that the outlaw/alt.country-ish stuff that swampers like AB, Giff, BSF, Brian and me prefer never gets played on mainstream country radio.

Ummm...did Barney have a thing for Wilma or something?
Didn't everyone?

Barney Rubble! What an actor!

Good advice.

The part I particularly hated was the buffet breakfast. Loads of assholes whose main goal on the cruise was to get at their bacon and pineapple before anybody else. Then, gawd help any kids or old ladies who get in their way, walking from the buffet to the tables. Fuck those people.

Here it is...the dumbest thing you'll read this week... Trump can win as the anti-chaos candidate This creates an opportunity for Trump to seize the mantle as the anti-chaos candidate. His winning message is not to promise “retribution” against those he believes wronged him. It is to tell Americans...

Been on one cruise and swore them off. And, in an effort not to be "that guy"... The positives were that the food was excellent and the various items, like soft serve ice cream and other quick hitter items meant you were fully fed. I liked going to the various piano bars, dance clubs etc....

for those of you who are going back and forth between services, it's worth exploring how many of them you can already get for free through other avenues we get Max free through our ATT internet (and/or DirecTV), we get the Disney bundle free through our AmEx, and we get Paramount Plus free through ...

Funny you would ask about cruises. We did one cruise 10 years ago, and I said I’d never do another one. Hell is other people. But it was one of those big ones with multi story ship. Now we’re going to go on another one next year - we just signed up. My wife and I and some old friends from Colorado. ...

I've been watching Paramount, max and Hulu almost exclusively these days. Suspended youtube tv through the summer. I mainly use YouTubeTV for sports. I also watch recorded FX/Hulu shows (Wrexham) on YTTV rather than Hulu, so I can zip through commercials. As far as pay streamers, we watch Apple, Ne...

Hitting overall is reaching historic lows. League avg of .239 at this point in the season is the 4th worst ever, 1908, 1909 and 1968.

Now do frequency of home runs.

sancarlos

Both western series’ see comebacks from three goal deficits in the first games. Crazy!

sancarlos

Bronto, I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make. As Shirley noted, you’re paying significantly more for DirecTV than he pays for YouTubeTV, for pretty much the same programming.

Congrats!

I'm guessing that means the head is just hanging on like a jack-in-the-box head.

Do you remember me telling you guys about this?

Our commuter train line here hits people occasionally. My understanding is that it is almost always a suicide.

Celebrini’s father used to be the director of sports medicine for the Golden State Warriors. Celebrini played for the San Jose Junior Sharks a few years ago. Kismet.

Edit: Father still has that job!

Very excited about this! Hope Celebrini has a great career! Sharks also have the Penguins’ top pick at 14.

Not as easy to conceal that way. (Even easier is to deposit with your bank's phone app.) This is a pretty sweet option. Changing the subject for a second… bear with me… I go to physical therapy pretty regularly for my shoulder, and even though I’ve hit my annual limit already for co-pays and deduct...

While it may be available nationally at the high school level, I think it’s a niche sport most middle-class places outside the east coast.

And, a clean sheet for Dean Henderson, MU’s former goalkeeper-in-waiting, who transferred to Palace after they signed Onana.

Dolan staying out of the way is a good start.

Just another reason to limit your cocktail intake before a run.
