Holy fucking shit.

Maybe he'll drag Bush, Cheney, Rice and Powell down to hell so they can hang out again. I thought the Bush Administration were the good guys now. After Trump. Huh?! A well formed turd may be better to look at than a puddle of diarrhea, but it is still a piece of shit. Of course but I just saw that ...

Not quite.

I was out with my wife this past weekend in downtown Catonsville, and we had an after dinner drink at Jennings Cafe.

Had a glass of this on the rocks.

Anybody had this? TBH, I find it better than the original.

Congrats! I keep getting texts and pics from my brother and his friends. At some bar in Tampa.

The Lightning held strong when the Islanders had the puck in the Lightning’s end for like a full minute during the empty net sequence.

Couple whiffs by Islanders there but whatever. Bring on the Habs.

The pictures accompanying this story are like a vision into my hell....(look for the one with the woman offering shots of her breast milk. Shudder) I'd prefer that to a shot of Jagermeister Speaking of what not to put in your baby's bottle: " Toxicology reports later showed the baby had cocain...

America is a third-world country in just about everything other than military spending. The thousand dollar question is how many other buildings in south Florida that were built in that same timeframe (building was erected in 1980) are going through similar deterioration. There was a paradigm shift...

Every news update makes this sound worse and worse. Could end up the most deadly singular event in the US since the Vegas shooting in 2017 (60) or the Great White fire in 2003 (100). One of my good friends lost his brother in the Station Nightclub fire. His brother had been living in RI (may have b...

So what happened? The goons came out?

Matt Gaetz is such a fucking loser. God, he gets dogwalked here https://youtu.be/3uIZ4C3Y0Ng You would think they'd get him off of any meaningful committees, considering how potentially compromised his ethics are. But yeah, watching General Mark Tilley set the record straight was a thing of beauty.

I wouldn't wanna see Licensed to Ill era Beastie Boys. Anything Paul's Boutique & after and I'm down though. I saw several of those shows down in Florida that year/tours, so for the ones I missed I'll say Paul Simon & the Grateful Dead. eta: replace the Dead with Bowie. I'd rather see Bowie ...

That's either straight up intellectual dishonesty or Howard's not as smart as I remember him to be.

Well I think we’ve established who is wearing the pants in the Lightning vs Islanders relationship.

Arguably the greatest emotive guitar solo in music history…

There's a joke to be had about natural philosophers and events that led to the enlightenment, but I'm not smart enough to come up with it. Maybe back when I'd slogged through Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle...

It probably involves Enoch Root, actually.

LOL and wtf with the notion of "if a small # of scientists disagree with the prevailing science, always side with the minority #."

Dafuck?!?

I kid about O-Town. I used to make the trek from Tampa over to The Edge Night Club / concert field to see concerts...Pretty much every few months for a four or year run there in the mid 90s.

I grew up in Glastonbury, CT. Did you know any Sidoriacks? Good buddy from college was from Glastonbury..he lives in MT and writes BBQ books now. I do not believe I did, but man, I moved out of Glastonbury on my 15th birthday in 1985. If the kids were going through the Glastonbury Public School Sys...

There’s no “there” there. It’s just a bunch of right-wing tourists from all over the South cosplaying at hedonism by watching shitty country cover bands play overpriced venues owned by shitty irrelevant country “stars” and fascist fuckwits like Kid Rock. It thinks it’s Austin but it’s Orlando but w...

She likely has a team of people who vet & research all angles in order to respond in a timely fashion. Fwiw, I'm guessing Joe Rogan does as well. In this day and age every congressional member should have a team of people to handle social strategy. Oh no doubt. Some congresspeople figure it out...

Nah. They took the lazy way out and are called Psycho Killers.

They're a really talented group of musicians though. 3 of them are in a Phish cover band (Foam), and they had freakin Thomas Dolby (who is now a professor at Johns Hopkins) open for them one night.

Sounds familiar. The interval was dependent upon his reaction, which sounded like a lot of upkeep, whereas the pill just takes care of it (I understand the roll of the dice)... Actually, we're about to drop him off for an overnight stay at the vet's boarding facility so that we can go see a Talking ...

That's good to hear. We went looking for alternatives, but the 6 week shot method was more expensive, and the time we visited some Druid vet, the homeopathic solution involved a whole lot of effort that seemed to make little sense.

When mine has had bouts of the shits or pukes I've usually just tried withholding food for a day, or part of a day at least, and then gone with a bland diet (potatoes or rice and boiled chicken and/or broth), as long as he's still willing to eat. Only time I worry is if he loses his appetite comple...

I can't help but think that there's a wag-the-dog element to all of this.

We've gone from management deadening the baseball to drive all the lack of scoring this year to labor's cheating causing the issue.

That's another reason Josh Donaldson's a moron.

EnochRoot

If I were Cole, I'd have told Josh Donaldson, as one union member to another, to shut his mouth. Then I'd have turned to the camera and pointed out this is a sport that only took steroids seriously when the United States Government started to threaten the league's antitrust exemption. That it made ...

copy pasta from a comment that perfectly sums up our disdain: Never forget, whenever a reactionary pines for the "good old days," what they really pine for are the days where institutional men would reflexively cover for each others' child molestation and abuse. Where people didn't know or...

Yeah, DeSantis couldn’t help but shit himself by claiming Florida emerged from Faucism.

The GOP has been reduced to a cult.

EnochRoot

Are you saying that this is as big a scandal as those two combined? At this point, I'd rank them: 1) MSU (by a mile) 2) PSU 3) Michigan ...with as details come out the ground is quickly closing between 2 and 3. But Michigan State's actions in enabling Nassar are beyond the pale. This wasn't a failu...

Yeah that's a fair question. Does the DoJ offer past presidents legal protection for the purpose of securing the nation?

Boomer Esiason, Drew Bledsoe…

Before we moved to FL, I grew up in Glastonbury, CT. We lived on a mountain - watershed abutted our backyard. The din of the grasshoppers every early summer evening was something to behold. Thousands of them...Probably equaled to about half the loudness of the cicadas I heard last weekend out at my ...

I’m trying to think of a high-profile QB’s career fading into irrelevance as much as Matt Ryan’s.

eta: seems to me Jones is exactly the type of player the win-it-all mode Ravens should've been fixated on.

EnochRoot

Ah...Thanks for clearing that up!
