Sorry for your loss. It's never easy, the hurt never really goes away, but it gets easier. Cold comfort now, of course.

This whole damn charade comes down to the fundamental question of what's more important: the required geopolitical alliance between America and Israel or telling Israel to settle the fuck down when they start acting like Joe Pesci in Goodfellas ? Since it continues to be the former why should peopl...

Had a trip to DC last weekend (no time folks, all family shizz, sorry, maybe next time!) and ended up in the Portrait Gallery. All the presidents have a potrait, and in true museum fashio, it says the artist, date and medium. "Gilbert Stuart, 1795, Oil on canvas" etc. They were mostly canv...

OK, is nonlinear "sarcastro" in the comments? At least two comments related to flushable wipes and "fucking up a wastewater plant" in the grundle hygiene post

If I could get rid of one single term out of all the corporate buzzwords or whatever you call them that have infiltrated the workplace, it would be "fireside chat," and it's really not even close. I'd have a circle back to this orgy with synergy and put a pin in that for now if I never he...

Wild that Maxey and Harris carried the MVP through an elimination game. Joel looked lost out there. It was kind of sad. Bell's palsy will fuck you up. Really put my mom in a bind when she was dealing with the stress of her parents dying. I know he's a professional athlete but not sure it matters th...

Big valentina fan. Ortega is fine but not wha ti would reach for most of the time. Cholula still probably #1 in my house.

watched it a couple of months ago and I thought it held up pretty well. The mudslide scene is one of my earlier in theater moments I remember.

His wife got a new job in Baltimore and he said "it was my turn to take one for the team career-wise." But, yes, it's wild that a guy that built a national contender had to step away from the program. Goes to show how little (relatively speaking) those folks get paid. Think there is a lit...

I've used that field! And no, I don't think they have a baseball team anymore, but they used to and Agannis Arena is named for a famous baseball alum, who was a famous football alum but decided to play for the Braves. Then he got pneumonia and died. Which shows the risks of playing for Boston profes...

The achilles injury rehab isn't enough injury?

We're one ace from someone getting shot at one of these protests.

That’s not the accounts I am hearing/reading. There are bad actors on both sides but a lot of what I see is actually students on both sides advocating for peace.

Honestly I’d say don’t listen to anyone older than you on this issue. The kids have damn near always been right.

I'm sure it's been discussed, but that was a killer save from Bobrovski.

The new Taylor Swift album seems fine so far, but I have to say, I prefer her older stuff, before she became less commercial. Yeah, it's pretty boring, tbh. It fit my vibe yesterday when I listened the first time. I wasn't listening with intent necessarily, but had it loud enough to hear while I wa...

Yes. Baby Ruth and Snickers are great, but nothing beats a great toffee bar.

My sister ships me Rocca bars for christmas or just randomly. I guess it's a Pac NW thing? Anyway, their dark chocolate w/toffee are amazing.

No idea how $28 million is a steal for Nike. Lets check back on this in 3 years. Just dont see the WNBA going places. It's an 8 year deal. AAV isn't that great, especially if she does turn out to be a star. If not, the next contract doesn't arrive and Nike loses. But you can probably make the argum...

If she plays in the W the way she played in college that is gonna be a steal for Nike. There seems to be some resentment of her among the old guard WNBA players, so it appears she’s really going to have to earn it. Oldheads gunna oldhead. What does she have to 'earn' exactly? She is gonna have to t...

When you're done there see if you can take a contractor gig doing something at Pituffik (formerly Thule) Air Base in Greenland.

We've all been gifted a Pity FFick, right?

Maybe they aren't related as a red herring. So look up the highest-producing macadamia nut places on earth. Maybe Sugar, too. Also, I have no idea.

If you put me and Caitlyn Clark alone in a room with no witnesses or cameras the promise that she would be told it was all just an experiment in awkwardness as soon as it was over, I still don't think I could get those lines out of my mouth. This is a long way to say you can frighten college-aged w...

Well, presumably she won't have to also take Stanford level college classes in season.

When I coached my boys in rec soccer, I mapped out the lineups and sub patterns ahead of time, because it's too hard during the games. I'd have my assistant use the sheet and run a timer. Of course, that was often difficult too, because invariably a kid or two wouldn't show or would show up late. I...
