Forgive my golf ignorance but how is it advantageous to the golfer to have his or her caddy stand behind the player in an extension of the line of play? Does them standing there somehow help the golfer hit the ball more accurately?

Sounds good, although I doubt it’ll be seen by as many people as the seminal smash-hit holiday classic JINGLE ALL THE VAAAAAAAAAY

The theme song didn’t “forecast” anything, since it was only played during the ending credits.

The live +3 numbers are probably better. I imagine there are a lot of B99 fans who are ‘cord cutters’. 

And with that, Mohamed Sanu maintained an elite passer rating for the year.

An F! A glorious F! It’s a Christmas miracle! Thank you, St. Ignatiy! Thank you for the amount and depth of film and literary history to a pan of economics-driven filmic shovelware! I didn’t expect to learn about the provenance of Sherlock Holmes adaptations and original texts. 

What surprises me is that Game Night only came out this year, I feel like it’s older. I saw it on a long-haul flight several months ago, so the airline must’ve acquired it while it was still in theaters, which is unusual.

Didn’t the Bush campaign put Cheney in charge of finding W a running mate in 2000? And the he’s all, “I have a great idea: how about ME?”

When I was a young kid, just starting high school,there was a small batting cage place with a arcade just a short bike ride from my house in the Chicago burbs. Me and my two friends would ride over and drop quarters in the machines all summer and any weekend where the weather wasn’t to cold to ride the rest of the…

This is an interesting piece (the one linked in the article above, not the article itself) but it also calls Mortal Kombat “magical realism”, which leads me to believe there are professional writers out there today who think Jason and the Argonauts is “magical realism” because it has people in it

I’m pretty sure there’s nothing in the bible that forbids the giving of graven images on Sundays.  

What made it for me was that they even included the choreography from the video!

“Wait a minute, are you tellin’ me that people bake extra-thick bread dough into a toroidal shape and then just eat it? Man, people are sick.”

Miyamoto’s involvement is extremely key. Now we know this movie will have tight, intuitive controls and clever level designs that introduce new moves at just the right drip-feed pace to keep us frustrated and entertained for hours.
