Watching this. So damn good so far.

That was a good finale.

The beanie babies are still expensive (this is related to a show from 2 weeks ago about beanie babies).

Anyone know a cheap way to buy a VHS rewinder online? I'm not talking about hunting around garage sales-I'm looking for a place that stocks and sells VHS rewinders normally.

I still listen to AM radio.
It comes down to battery life. You can listen for 1000s of hours on an AM radio with a single set of batteries.
You can listen to something for 8 hours on a cell phone.

I'm very sorry, but UNSEALED : Alien Files just came on.

Is UNSEALED any good?

Radio Shack should go back into business selling VHS Rewinders.
Those things go for $50 now.

There was one from awhile back, don't know if it got logged, but he was talking about some tragedy in the news and if I remember right said "It's like a comedy of mistakes ... sadly."

''The order for a census stated that it is being held to gather data for
administrative purposes. That's a neat phrase, but it contains catastrophe . . .
We are certain that this census is being taken  for the purpose of expelling
'nonproductive elements? And there are a great many of us now . . . .
We are all caught in a net, doomed to destruction."

(Chaim) Kaplan was not alone in fearing the census. (Adam) Czerniakow was
besieged with questions about the purpose of this count.?7 The deeply
Talmudic community, which had little left except its faith and teachings,
understood well that censuses were ominous in Jewish history.
The Bible itself taught that unless specifically ordered by God, the census
is evil because through it the enemy  will  know your strength...

On October  28, 1939,  for the Jewish people of Warsaw, everything
stopped. That day they were counted.

Throughout the day, thousands of census forms were brought to the
Jewish Community Center, generally by the house superintendents in Jewish
buildings.

The results came with almost magical speed.  In  a little more than forty­
eight hours, all the forms had been counted. By October  31,  Czerniakow had
been informed there were some  360,000  Jews in Warsaw. The exact number
was  359,827,  revealing the community's precise dimensions: Jews infancy to
age  15: . . . 46,172  men and  45,439  women; Jews aged  16-59 . . . lO4,273
men and  131,784  women; Jews aged  60  and over  . . . 13,325  men and  16,933
women; undetermined . . . only  537  men and  1,364  women. Employed . . .
155,825.  Unemployed, including infants and invalids  . . . 204,002.  Artisans
. . .  73,435.  The Germans even knew that many Jewish artisans were practic­
ing without a license by comparing the census results with the actual number
of artisan licenses previously issued by the local authorities.
...
The Nazi quantification and regimentation of Jewish demographics in
Warsaw and indeed all of Poland was nothing less than spectacular-an
almost unbelievable feat. Savage conditions, secrecy, and lack of knowledge by
the victims would forever obscure the details of exactly how the Nazis man­aged
to tabulate the cross-referenced information on  360,000  souls within
forty-eight hours.
But this much is known: The Third Reich possessed only one method
of tabulating censuses: Dehomag's Hollerith system. Moreover, IBM was in
Poland, headquartered in Warsaw. In fact, the punch card print shop was just
yards from the Warsaw Ghetto at Rymarska Street  6.  That's where they pro­duced
more than  20  million cards."

He threw a punch at a producer. Would your employer tolerate that on the premises? Dilemma: TG makes a lot of money for the BBC, but they can't have one rule for one and a different one for others. And he hit Piers Morgan at a press awards dinner... that might sway it!

Clarkson is well read. He's no dummy.

He wouldn't pull that shit in America. Someone would hit him back. I'm guessing he threw a punch at the smallest guy on the set.

Jorch keeps on insulting us, but he always reads our posts.

Its gotten so low George is talking to Tommy now.

Good article about gangsters and society in the New Yorker from a few months ago. By Malcom Gladwell
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/08/11/crooked-ladder

The Crooked Ladder. The criminal’s guide to upward mobility.

Quote"All three of the great waves of nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century European immigrants to America innovated. Irish gangsters dominated organized crime in the urban Northeast in the mid to late nineteenth century, followed by the Jewish gangstersâ€"Meyer Lansky, Arnold Rothstein, and Dutch Schultz, among others. Then it was the Italians’ turn. They were among the poorest and the least skilled of the immigrants of that era. Crime was one of the few options available for advancement. The point of the crooked-ladder argument and “A Family Business” was that criminal activity, under those circumstances, was not rebellion; it wasn’t a rejection of legitimate society. It was an attempt to join in."
