I love it when the different kinds of Christians fight with each and think each other are weird and wrong.

If one of you is willing to sit in the middle, you will very likely be able to all sit together if you check in exactly 24 hours before your flight (like down to the second, keep hitting the button a few seconds before until it works).

I would cast George Clooney as me doing Westlaw searches.

As long as nobody burns down my house, and as long as they keep the fireworks out of the goddam dry as fuck foothills (already a bad start with that one) I can get through it.

Unfortunately the odds them burning down someone's house, and a few hundred acres of wildlife habitat in the foothills are significantly above zero.

That's some brilliant detective shit.

I don't know enough about composers to fully appreciate this, but I still enjoyed it.

The last surviving WW1 veteran died three days before Alberto Del Rio won the 2011 Royal Rumble.

I wonder if I'm the first person in history to make that completely pointless observation.

What's not standard is a 4.8 points/game guy getting drafted in the NBA.

I just ask because I though 1-star ratings blocked you from drivers in the future.

I was wondering if you were like, "uh, piss bottle, but good conversation. 4 stars".

Where are you staying?

Check Google Maps and find the nearest CVS, ABC Store, or Walgreens. It will be within walking distance.

Also buy beer there.

Edit: You don't need a cooler. Just carry as much as you can from one of the convivence stores to your room, keep your drinks cold by filling up the sink or a recycling bin or trash can with ice from the ice machine at the hotel (a machine will probably on your floor, maybe it will be only be on every other floor), and go back to the store when you run out.

Did you give him a rating last time?

I'm really sorry this happened. Keep us updated on how he's doing!

Unacceptable behavior from the kennel. I've taken my younger (non-Greyhound) dogs to a national chain doggy day care for years and they are SO vigilant about his well-being, they call me about pretty minor things that are out of the ordinary.

I'm a few years younger than Shane, but when I was a kid, you weren't REALLY old unless you born in the 1800's (like Toots Mondt was), which feels crazy now.

That late Gorilla stuff is crazy, I also saw him call a match with Los Boricuas.

There's a bunch of shows and matches he did that have never surfaced afterwards, he was calling the internationally syndicated Superstars show well into 1998.

Cornette was in his early 20's when he was a hugely over great-promo guy manager in the mid-80s.

(though he had been around the business for years before that, which surely helped his confidence and comfort level with it).

It's a bit of a technicality - it was only the WWF from 1979-2002. It was the WWWF from 1963-1979.

When Hulk Hogan won his first WWF championship, the WWF was only 4 years old.

For a second there, before they zoomed in, it looked like that 1980's Nintendo baseball game where you could defy physics and run your player over the railing and over the space the fans were in.

I'm sure I'm the only one here who remember this.

Maybe she gave him a handy in the theater, and he venmo'd $40 for it.

 Lowe was awesome closing out Game 5, in Oakland too. 

I don't have a huge resume of Sox games attended, but I was at that one. Drove down from Oregon, where I lived at the time.

I'm going out to Oakland for one more game in a few weeks, really out of sentimentality for that trip.

I hate to sound like and old Gen-Xer, but I miss these guys (even Wells), and those teams, and that league.

It'd hard to connect with the game in the same way today. Partly (probably mostly) because I'm older, partly because the players don't seem as charismatic, partly because it's harder to get a handle on a game or a team with the way pitchers are deployed.

I agree that doing those things is generally better, but, your mean-spirited, bossy, and condescending way of expressing that makes me want to drive around unnecessarily for hours and throw my bike in a dumpster.

I do this but I take the subway, and connect to the people mover.

Oh, so SUVs aren't allowed, what about regular cars? Is that allowed? If they have 2 people in the car is it allowed?

Just trying to get the parameters of this since you're apparently the traffic pope.
