Terrible news about Nix. Seemed like such a good guy and great personality. I hate this for him and his family.

I'm not sure this is a great idea. I get that those doing it mean well, and if this was a critically endangered species I might concede that that it was better than letting them go extinct. I wouldn't have a problem with it if they were victims of an oil spill or some other disaster that we were directly...

One night last week while I was at work, my wife watched Fast Times At Ridgemont High for the first time. When I got home she was telling me about it and asked if I knew who Phoebe Cates was. I explained to her that I was 22 when the movie came out and definitely knew about her. My wife then said, "Holy...

I thought this commercial was well-conceived and pretty funny.

Alright, I've spent enough time here and had enough fun to feel obligated to chip in some dough. I'll drop a few dollars in the jar tomorrow. BTW, how much would it take to get ACamp permabanned? Asking for a friend.

Rush Limbaugh passed away today at the age of 70 from lung cancer.

That's where I am. I can get to the site on my phone, but it won't let me log in. I'm sure we'll figure it all out, learn the new stuff, and the bugs will get weeded out soon enough. Glad to be back....

He was perplexing during his time at Bama. TTT may know more, but AFAIK he was never a discipline or academic problem. He just failed to develop as expected. Came in as the top ILB prospect in the country and a top 10 overall recruit, but never got significantly better than he was in HS....

Former NFL coach Marty Schottenheimer died last night at the age of 77 from Alzheimer's. He was HC of four teams, but probably best known for coaching the Browns and Chiefs. Schottenheimer was one of the NFL's 10 winningest coaches ever and his teams routinely won consistently during the regular season,...

Death to you, you commie pinko pervert goatophile....

Yikes! That's REALLY telling. That KC O-line wasn't up to the job and the Bucs' D was lights out....

Brady sure looks on track for another ring. The Bucs are putting it on the Chiefs.

George P. Shultz, former Secretary of the Treasury and Labor under Nixon, and Secretary of State under Reagan, has passed away at the age of 100. Shultz was a moderate voice in the Reagan administration and one of the major players in ending the Cold War.

Former heavyweight boxing champion Leon Spinks died yesterday at the age of 67. He had been battling cancer for the past few years and suffering from numerous other ailments, including brain atrophy likely stemming from his boxing career. Spinks won an Olympic gold medal in '76 and upset Ali for the...

Relax, my friend. American politics is replete with instances of what seems like the ultimate example of someone going too far over the line, only to find that after a bit of time it fades from importance and effect, and is replaced by something even more outrageous. Regardless of what nonsense and...

This is good news. I'll look forward to the improvements. The only downside is now I can't mess with Cack anymore. :-)

I watched The Sound Of Music with my 9-year-old this past summer. Plummer was a fine actor. Not particularly common knowledge, but during filming of the movie, he and Charmian Carr who played oldest daughter Liesl, were having an affair. She was playing a 16-year-old and he her 40+ year old dad. In...

Yeah, Kasparov's definitely an interesting guy. IQ in the 190's and maybe the best chess player in history. Unlike the stereotypical super-genius, he's anything but nerdy and monomaniacal. He can be very funny and charming (and sometimes an arrogant horse's ass), is quite knowledgeable about almost...

AOSmollett may not have been precisely, factually, semantically correct with her version of what happened during the riot, but she was morally correct in making up a story about it.
