So glad the mind control police in the Deadspin comment section are here...otherwise this world would be a terrible place. Newsflash to Blackfriars: in this thing called life, some people will have opinions that you think are dumb. This has been going on for thousands and thousands of years. Please get over yourself.

I used to be the guy who moved lugging a 100 boxes of books up and down stairs. After the last move I halved my library at my spine’s insistence. Now I carry around at least a dozen boxes worth of books around in my Kindle. I understand the draw of physical books, I really really do, but not being tethered to all that…

And you can sync your audio book with your Kindle book and pick up right where you left off when going from car to home or vice versa. (assuming that work was developed with Whyspersync, which admittedly not all do.) That’s sweet.

This is me as well. I am typically in the middle of 3-5 books, each in different genres and for different purposes. I also have different stories going in different modes audio, physical, and electronic reader.* One of the tricks is recognizing which TYPE of book works for you with which medium and under which…

Would you tell someone you’d seen a movie, if you’d actually just read the screenplay?

Until you have to move, of course, and then those treasured trophies became box after box of anvils you have to carry up and down stairs. After 3 moves in five years I got rid of half my library and haven’t looked back.

Sure if you cite some obscure claws in statute, but I’m no beagle expert.

And they put those french fries RIGHT ON THE DAMN SANDWICH! It’s insane.

And many of the credits they “earn” don’t transfer. I live in a college town of a DIV I powerhouse and the Junior Colleges are full of athletes cast aside by the behemoth state school who have to start their educations all over.

Can you put together a schematic plan for paying people to do whatever it is you do? And did everyone who did whatever it is you do have to work for room, board, and training until someone came up with such a plan? Of course not. If you don’t have to wait to get paid for your labor, why should they?

Yes and the reason is that you would be expected from recusing yourself from any official business with family and friends. Of course a fireman would definitely put out a fire in a friends house just as quick as a strangers. But the FD does more than put out fires. They also provide fire safety inspections and…

I agree.

City employees are barred from accepting gifts valued over $50 from anyone who does business with the City.

Thanks for participating. Here’s your trophy.

But I don’t think they ever played a game as the Colts as I recall. Anyway, the area, the city, and the stadium authority treated them like queens until it treated them like last night’s hookers. Talk about your rebound girlfriend.

And still being scarred from watching my beloved Colts leave Baltimore and being a Baltimore Stallions (not Colts) fan, I stand by my comment. (which was only meant to be a half-ass CFL put down in the first place)

This is more like a teenage girl cutting herself than actual suicide. It’s not like he’s threatening to follow Canadian Football.

Yes, and it’s exactly the same pathology and it isn’t gender or sexuality specific. “Everyone says he will cheat. But he’ll treat me better, you’ll see.” or “They don’t know her like I do. She shares her soul with me” “He loves me. He didn’t love her.” “His last boyfriend was mean to him. It was HIS fault. I’ll treat…

Did someone ask for some Sparks from LA??

We thought of the naming thing. We thought we’d sponsor vans to transport women seeking medical help from PP from pro-life states to pro-choice states and call the program “Cruz Control.”
