       Turning their lives around? Loving fathers to the children of women they didn't marry or live with? Contemplated getting their GED so they could attend the Ivy League? Found Islam while doing a bit in a pen? (Insert baby picture, not recent picture of said thug...the Trayvon rule)

         The same old standing heads of urban "journalism"

Was this a big thing? Because I remember mentioning this fact when asked about the case (at the time the initial hubbub was ongoing), and I always said "If all they are doing is showing me 4-5+ year-old pics of this kid, something must be wrong."

Angelina Jolie in Alexander, or just about any movie where she needs a foreign sound.  She's horrid at it.

Anyone here have a Bigfoot sighting?  I had a friend (he moved) who struck me as intelligent, articulate, and honest.  He told a story about seeing what he was sure was Bigfoot in Alaska.  It's not an especially compelling story, I'm afraid -- just a clear but brief sighting of a tall man/ape type figure about 75 yards away.  The guy had seen many bears and knew the difference.

Again, I find myself in the I want to believe category, but have had no personal experience whatsoever with Sasquatch.

Anyone?

Hell, I see that shit all the time...

And Jay Leno.

And Russell Brand...

Watch Russell Brand on Norm Macdonald's podcast. It's therapeutic; now instead of hating him I only mildly dislike him.

I recall years back now, something about British school children no longer being served traditional Hot Cross Buns on Good Friday for the same reason. 

Shouldn't the first rule of immigrants be that they fit in to their new country, not demand it be the other way around.  Giving in to this stuff is seen as a sign of weakness and will only encourage more demands and radicalization.  These troublemakers need to be better screened before arriving, and if they get past that, returned home. 

They've been done a favor being granted access to someone else's country, to have been brought in to the modern world.  They aren't owed anything - just the opposite.  Their death cult religion can not to be catered to without negative consequences down the road.

I feel I can safely say they won't face a Justin I'm-an-artist-and-deserve-to-be-talen-seriously Bieber administration though. Making oneself a worldwide butt of jokes and mockery before the age of 21, and future success in politics, historically have not mixed well. http://www.accesshollywood.com/justin-bieber-fires-back-after-being-booed-at-billboard-music-awards-i-should-be-taken-seriously_article_79695

The real issue here is that the human race continues to be stupid enough to build citys in a place they themselves call 'tornado alley'. We all know what tends to happen in alleys.

Pretty much this.  Or that local/regional building codes aren't sufficiently adapted and improved to suit the area.

I think the Pissing on Noary thread just got sent to the ether.
Perhaps in the future a similar, but more politically correct thread could be started.
Something to the effect of: What human excrement would you most like to fling at Noary. Poo or piss

              June 2000.   Had the misfortune of seeing at least 50 self declared "dykes" parade topless through Boston Common as a renegade breakaway offshoot of the annual "pride" parade. About as sexually stimulating as the nudity in Schindler's List or National Geographic Rwanda documentaries.Picture 50 Kathy Bates, Gilda Radners and Odettas in all of their non-pulchritude.

       Rusty Kuntz of the early 80's White Sox/Tigers is my all time favorite. One of those baseball cards I took delight in finding. I'd loudly announce "look at my Rusty Kuntz!"


        Let us not forget former Red Sox pitcher Dick Pole, either.

It's kind of weird - You'd think that nascar would own that dominion, but overall baseball has always had fantastic names.  I mean, Dick Trickle even sounds like it's supposed to be a baseball name.

General, there`s no bigger fan of the Kalashnikov than yours truly, but as a practical manner, I would recommend The Judge, from Taurus. It chambers both a .45 cal. magnum round, and a .410 shotgun shell. This weapon has devastating stopping power and can intimidate with it`s boisterous retort.


Easy to handle, light weight, and fairly accurate. Additionally, I have never known one to jam, which is/can be, a frustrating problem  with weapons like the Kalashnikov. 

[size=78%]  [/size]

Unless you get the magnum judge (which shoots the .454 Casul), or you go for a smaller concealed type Judge, I'd suggest getting a S&W Governor;  You get six in the chamber as opposed to the Judge's 5.  Sort of a big deal in a revolver. I rock a PDX candy cane load.

Quote from: General Johnson Jameson on May 15, 2013, 01:58:38 PM
For the record, I don't believe I've had a single jam with my AK. The Walther on the other hand will jam, quite often actually, unless I am using rounds from a specific manufacturer that puts a faint, wax coating on the brass. Huge difference.

Keep the P22 a greasy pig (with Break free/ballistiol, or Hi-Slip grease on the plastic-to-metal pieces), polish the feed ramp, polish the right side lip of your mags.

      Guy who drove cars in circles for a living(no wonder the Saudis laugh at us) Dick Trickle dead via self inflicted lead posioning at 71.

        Personally, I think it's incredible he made it to 71. With a name like that, I would have offed myself before my voice changed.

Man, THAT is why I love you. You've still got it man!  And didn't Dick Trickle have one of the very best sports names EVER?

One more thing. I hope these scandals make it 100% transparent to the American people that the Executive branch wields an irresponsible amount of power. An amount of power that is all too easily corrupted. It began in earnest with FDR, picked up the pace with Nixon, eased a bit with Carter, and went pedal to the metal with Bush II. Obama is a continuation of the dangerous amount of power America has invested in her top executive. We are very close to a system of "King for four years".

THIS, this is the issue at hand.

Quote from: Sardondi on May 11, 2013, 10:39:15 PM
Just watched a couple of trailers for Spaz Blurman's latest beautifully colored and sparklingly polished St. Bernard turd masquerading as a movie. He first came to my attention, as I guess he did for most folks, with the drag queen cabaret that was Moulin Rouge in 2001. I was astounded to learn he was straight. (He is, right?) That movie was watchable for the same reason anyone would watch Richard Simmons or Tammy Faye Bakker: the sheer jaw-dropping astonishment of how shameless was the narcissism of its moving force.

But to this latest Gatsby, just who is the man's audience? Retired English majors? Oops, missed bad there, Baz. Gay teen boys? Wrong again. Here's a flash, Mr. Luhrmann: I know it doesn't seem so from hanging out in London, NYC and San Fran, but there really aren't nearly enough gays much less gay teen boys, to recoup the movie's $127 million budget. Well, that's the amount the studio admits to. What was it really? $140 million? $175 million? More?

It's not like the bar was that high. The 1974 version was a true embarrassment. It also seemed aimed at the girls (and in those days what was still a mostly closeted gay audience) with poster boy Robert Redford as the Old Sport himself. Mia Farrow as Daisy was a perfect ice queen, sexy only to Ralph Lauren...well, if she was standing next to an 18-year-old boy naked except for the tighty-whiteys meant for a 4th grader that he had been jammed into with a crowbar and a No. 2 can of Crisco. Bruce Dern was Daisy's vile psycho husband, Tom: they got the psycho part right, even if Dern sounds like he never came within 3000 miles of West Egg. And Sam Waterston played the callow Nick. If you want to know what Waterston sounded like before his tongue got paralyzed or he started losing parts of his jaw to radiation therapy/cancer surgery*, see this version. It was such a terrible movie. If anyone would like to shut Redford up when he opens his mouth about some social or political issue, just crank up this stinker: it is irrefutable proof he never was and never will be an actor, and just might shame him into permanent silence. I mean he is bad.

But Luhrmann' Gatsby could do something that maybe not even Mr Toothy Smile couldn't in 1974 - make Redford's Gatsby watchable. Mostly it's the ridiculous insistence on shoehorning contemporary music into a period piece movie. Why in hell go to all that trouble costuming and designing sets to be so accurate for the 1920's and then soundtrack it like you're sitting in your daughter's Toyota?! Huh? Baz has these massive, intricate scenes, with hundreds of extras all decked out in gloriously expensive outfits - I mean, he's got people doing the Charleston as military-grade munitions stand in for fireworks for cripes sake - and then he's scoring it with that great 1920's artist, Beyoncé. Sheesh. It's like Autotuning a movie about Mozart.

But then as far as I can tell from the trailers, it's the usual soap opera "acting", in which Leonardo DiCaprio, to steal Dorothy Parker's great line about Katharne Hepburn, delivers a performance "that runs the gamut of emotions, from A to B". But Leo does get to act really, really mad, one time. And because the rest of the time he's so cool and all, it means he's really, really, like, deep, you know? That is "acting", let me tell you.

Oh crap, this looks like a stinker of a movie.


* No kidding, has anyone else noticed Waterston's "sore tongue" sound that he's had for a decade or so? He's speaking like he's got several stitches in the side of his tongue, or like perhaps part of his mouth are paralyzed or missing. I really do wonder if he's had some cancer, and if radiation or surgery has resulted in a loss of tissue or he has less than full use of his tongue. Maybe a stroke? Listen to him in any movies or tv up through most of the 90's, and then listen to him for the last 10-15 years or so. He's definitely got a problem, as well as being hoarse, thin-voiced and weak sounding.   

I don't know about all the depth of analysis you went into, but yeah, when I first saw the trailer I said to myself 'Now here's a fucking joke I won't mind missing".

Did "Spaz" do Romeo and Juliet. (Yes, I'm that fucking lazy. and drunk.)

This is a really complicated question. Statins do more than decreasing cholesterol they also have some anti-inflamatory effect. So... as people age their memories are sometimes affected. Some studies say that roughly 10 percent of people over 65 have some amount of dementia. I would agree. Dementias however are not all the same beast. So... the short of it as one ages there is more likely the use of statins and there is also an increase of dementia.


This site may give you some answers or at least help ask better questions to you doctor (not saying your question wasn't a good one).
