For those Kindle-inclined history buffs, Andrew Roberts bio "Napoleon" is $2 on kindle daily deals today. Worth it even if you've read other Napoleon bios.

Rass, FB sends me a notification every time you post something. Why? Because you love me? I think about all I did this AM was comment on my own post, which I don't you even liked much ( :( ) much less commented on. So no idea? No, it sends me a notification every time you post a status update. &quo...

I am at a complete loss as to why the Bundesliga (and KBO for that matter) is scheduling 5 games together and not staggering them 2-2.5hrs apart. They have no fans to worry about and this is mostly for TV. Seems to me this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to market all teams to a captive worldwide aud...

That really sounds like the elevator pitch for a great teen comedy. "During a quarantine, a girl has to get back to her sorority house to smuggle out a massive supply of booze before Dean Wormer and his minions find out." And her dad's internet friend offers to sneak into the sorority &qu...

People have no ability to think independently. Just a depressing commentary on the state of political discourse. Just no reason for a politically aligned divide on those issues one way or another. Idiots just do what they're told... Unless they're specifically told to do it, in which case they resi...

Effective 5/4, you will be required to wear a mask/face covering to enter Costco stores. If you thought the toilet paper fights in Costco were entertaining/frightening, wait until the videos show up of poor retail employees trying to stop people who won't adhere to this policy.

I think Whiners will regret not taking Jeudy.

Which site? Is it real or play money? If real money would we just deal with site or is it a PayPal/zelle/venmo thing/? Asking for me.

The briefings from the people who daily preach to the rest of us the virtue of social distancing while standing shoulder-to-shoulder to get in the camera shot.

I'm not sure why commercial aviation is still running. Most states have some version of a stay-at-home and anything resembling entertainment/vacationy has been cancelled. I looked on Flightaware this afternoon and there were thousands of jets in the air. I'm not saying close it tomorrow but give peo...

Lost in yesterday's news cycle was the agreement between Directv and SportsnetLA to carry Dodgers games in Socal, LV, and Hawaii. I'm no Dodger fan but it was frustrating having their games blacked out when there was no possible way to watch them. This will be a huge boon for local bars as most of t...

It's stunning to see the percentage of people who seemingly have no idea how far 6 feet is.

If you thought grocery store lines were impressive, wait for the bank lines the week those stimulus checks hit.

You can just fine someone for saying words?

Sure, happens all the time. Leagues have been fining for years for saying words. Free agent "tampering", criticizing a league and/or refereeing, various slurs, etc. This is a stretch of the concept but hardly a new one.

I believe one large contributing factor to Italy's high death rate is they have a high (highest in EU? Most recent article I found on a quick search was 2016) percentage of multi-generation homes.

Does the game allow you to attack others around you or at least scout for bands of pirates? Seems as though you are sitting around waiting for the next wave of marauders.

Can't speak for other carriers, but Directv giving free week of Showtime starting today. Last week it was HBO/Cinemax.

Nevada governor orders all non essential business shut down for 30 days. Orders all gaming machines regardless of venue turned off at midnight. He needed to specify all because we have them in all grocery stores which will stay open. Pubs, bars and restaurants may only stay open if they have a full ...

If Houston was desperate to trade Hopkins to a team in the NFC West with an underperforming RB, there were other options. Just sayin.

It is a continuation of the Obama Administration's policy of Quantitative Easing (2008-15?) in response to the Banking Crisis. It is to make sure banks continue to loan each other money and keep it flowing rather than having them hoard it like Costco toilet paper.

As I believe has been mentioned upthread, McMillions is so worth six hours of your time. A true crime story that continues to get crazier up until the final frame.

Maybe in an abundance of caution we should put RBG in forced quarantine.

I've watched (and admittedly bet on) many of the games and find the strategy decisions intriguing. Much as you shouldn't watch MLS expecting the Premier League, as long as you don't expect the NFL then the XFL can be an entertaining watch.

My local Costco is out of paper towels, toilet paper, and bottled water. This being the desert, our stores tend to have crazy amounts of water at all times. A warehouse store running out is no small feat.

My prediction, there will be no brokered convention, Bernie will sweep to victory. No other candidate will win more than 2 states. With the caveat that anything can happen.... Realclearpolitics this morning has Biden leading in both Carolinas and Florida and those are certainly plausible. If Democr...

Not sure if you guys ever played this but...listening to the play calls during XFL games makes me think I'm playing "NFL Head Coach"

It was 77 yesterday. Today it is 45 with sustained North winds of 25, gusts to 50. I've been ice fishing in warmer weather.

I assume this means either St John or Moncton. Both fine choices. I grew up on the panhandle border so I can help there though can’t imagine why you’d move there. No matter where in the province you are, some rudimentary French will be helpful.

Miami Herald says was 6+ miles deep which will help minimize damage. Hopefully.
