2004 to be exact. He was warming up for an independent run but Karl Rove bought him out with the 2008 nom.

That's not a bad way of phrasing it. Most of Carter's issues were all blowback from Eisenhower's foreign policy.

Right. The Southern Baptist Convention praised the ruling. The SBC itself wouldn't become radicalized until 1994 or so when the same wave that Newt Gingrich into office also knocked out the moderate wing of the denomination.

He's the muppet equivalent of fox-Robin Hood.

Right. There's tons of great art all over the world that can only be seen in that one particular spot. Whether it's because it's part of an edifice or the prestige is too great to allow outside of it's home/adopted country or it's too fragile for travel anywhere. The possession and the curation of such work is…

I'm trying really hard whether I should hate you. I mean you seem perfectly nice and reasonable, so that would be stupid, but on the other there's your avatar and the fact I support Arsenal and Napoli.

Again, Jon Stewart was garbage at interviewing until 2002.

The Community Season 3 effect.

There were fights but the playing field was very much level between the two cultures. The first attack by the settlers against any local Americans was in a raid to free Squanto and Massasoit.…

It's also unrealistic that the Sounders would be playing soccer this late in the year.

It's weird to see people getting defensive about something that's hardly better than a Walkman.

Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Rick Fox need to do a show together.

A friend dragged me along to a 90s dance night a year or so ago, and it was kind of miserable for me. I like dancing but 99% of 90s music does fuck all for me because I spent all the post-Cobain years outside the US in Eastern Europe, which was very much in anonymous techno phase, but this song came on, and I only…

I'm kind of glad it will be on Tuesday. Sundays are a just a million show pile-up, and this is without following The Leftovers.

I think it was an order for more scripts plus a redo of the pilot.
