Despite how it may seem I'd love to live somewhere one day where the weather is basically the same every day.

Had a friend in Boston that had lived in the South Pacific for a few years. SHe said it was like 85 every day. She loved it for a couple years then got bored with the lake of variety.

Good luck my friend.

I'm sure you've seen, but I found the research they're doing with Google Glass and autistic kids pretty fascinating.

Tomi as a 80s pop starlet.

I've always had trouble falling asleep. Could be nodding off in a chair, but hit the bead and I'm thinking of shit and tossing and turning for an hour.

I started taking melatonin. Godsend. Take as part of the routine, read for 20-30 minutes. Out like a light.

I don't know if MaxWebster knew this existed. I sent him a link. I'm putting the over under of him pouring over the stats at 2.5 hours.

GABF doesn't sell out in minutes for the first time in years...

also shitloads more space, and more breweries. Or they did a better job and foiling the ticket purchasing bots.

Some of us don't have billable hours to do in-depth research into hit tunes from 80s comedies. Don't you work in facilities directly geared towards research...? It's rare when that topic of research blesses our hallowed halls, nor are we geared toward such research. Early baseball historical journa...

but poutine IS available as are all 5 seasons of Letterkenny.

I can brew my own damn tea.

Previously undisclosed evidence in the possession of Special Counsel Robert Mueller—including highly confidential White House records and testimony by some of President Trump’s own top aides—provides some of the strongest evidence to date implicating the president of the United States in an obstruc...

I'm sure I've posted this before, but it just blows me away how friggin great this is. The songwriting, the singing, the playing. Masterful.

There is also this

i don't know what's going on.

Sort of like the Ukrainians that fought with the Nazis against the Russians I guess. Those with common enemies make strange friends.

Now, I wish the Koches would retaliate by using their money against Trump and his acolytes.

Maybe that study that they funded that comes out in favour of Bernie's Medicare For All is the first step in them becoming Democratic Socialists.

Freaks and Geeks is pretty cool. I see why everyone is nostalgic over it.

It was framed well for a one season, but still a what if. Amazing what the cast has gone on to do though.

Rush2112

Would love to be in. Or is there a Championship?

Rush2112

File this under no shit Sherlock.

‘Junk’ political news shared more widely by Trump backers, study finds

Man, I must be on the wrong side of history here.

Ya. I don't mind it. Not that I seek it out, but I'll quaff a lemon sparkling water happily.

It could be a thread on its own, but which movies can you think of that were excellent as both books and movies? Even if some changes were made. First ones that come to mind are...

Was it backwards?
Yeah, now we need to know if Mr.D is a guy who wears his hat backwards in public.

Yes. At least when I've seen him in public. It was a Yankees hat of course.

Rush2112

Not sure hitting someone with a 72 mph changeup is even worth it.

Manziel an Alouette!

Has now been on 22% of the CFL's teams.

Has dressed for all four regular season games, but hasn’t played.

THe Alouettes have been hot garbage. Gets reunited to the coach that recruited him in college, maybe can light a fire under their asses. That said, Go Ti-Cats.

The 1987 Oklahoma State team had a starting backfield of Thurman Thomas and Barry Sanders.
And a 40 year old man at QB.

Who's still younger than the MILF that JimmyG had on his arm.

Rush2112

I’m dubious that 90 percent of her eventual superdelegates (and frankly that might be a low estimate) weren’t going to support her anyway. Sanders isn’t a Democrat and the Clintons have been part of the machine for three decades. I don’t think there were many Democratic senators or governors that h...

Nobody would have voted for Trump if he ran as an independent. People voted for the (R). And having the (R) gave him the stage. money and infrastructure to give all those speeches and be in all those debates and get all that tv time. Plenty of people would have voted for him as an I rather an R, de...

I watched The Almighty Johnsons a few years ago on regular TV.

A well done show - Norse Gods living in present day New Zealand. Avoids most of the cliches of the genre.

I have to watch more of that. Watched a few episodes and really enjoyed. Then got out of tv for a bit.

Getting the spins in another way..attended the remnants of the Grateful Dead show in Boulder this past weekend.

I cannot fathom how someone dislikes the Beatles, but you must at least respect the Beatles for their influence on music and how they brought "art" into rock and roll.
