almost always lead to misleading headlines

Ironically, you know what’s pretty healthy—a hamburger with a lettuce wrap instead of a bun. You can get that at most fast food places now, and certainly could make it easily at home. Skip the mayo, skip the cheese, skip the fries. Have a good portion of vegetables on it, and it can be a fairly lean, relatively low…

Here in Colorado, we will gladly accept any and all mayflies.

Clearly that 1987 broadcast was standard definition, but I never remember my tv looking that sharp back then. Does Youtube upconvert those when possible?

Now you’ve got me questioning myself, but at Rockies’ games it is “America the Beautiful” because of the connection to the Colorado mountains.

Ha. I intentionally don’t stand during “America the Beautiful” which has now crept its way into most stadia as a de facto second national anthem. People always get upset when I tell them that “it’s not the national anthem, and I have no intention of standing for it.” I think that there was even a situation at Yankee…

Except for the fact that your example is incorrect, and there is no GMO beef for sale anywhere in the world and won’t be at any conceivable time in the near future.

Although it’s entirely possible that the Republican Convention could beat them to that milestone.

World stock markets are likely to take a beating.

Dear Hamilton, from now on you will be getting 75% of your agreed-upon salary, since it’s “basically the same thing.”

If it’s truly legal in Louisiana, it can’t be a reason to investigate further.

That’s fine but one can’t simultaneously fret about the problem of guns in this country (and, to be clear, I don’t know if you do, this is just generalizing) and simultaneously write of a stolen gun charge as being a “racial equalizer.” People are going to have to pick one or the other.

No, burrito bowls are better because you don’t have to eat that disgusting, soggy-ass flour tortilla. Flour tortillas are objectively worse than corn tortillas, but they are especially bad when sized larger than a taco. With a burrito you get all the grease and salsa and other liquids turning the flour tortilla into a…

The Russians injected capital into Gawker Media to provide them the funds to fight the Hogan lawsuit and added liquidity to run the business while legal fees were sucking it dry. Maybe they didn’t do enough diligence, maybe they just got burned by Thiel, but why should they get that money back? Denton had tens of…

Why in the fuck would you donate it back to Denton? Yay, let’s give a multi-millionaire and a Russian sovereign/hedge fund back the money that they squandered, no strings attached.

Just because you’re bitter that you live somewhere it’s never sunny, don’t be spewing your Croakie hate to me. I’m neither Southern nor a bro, and arguably more of an asshole than a douchebag.

It has always seemed reasonable that approaching gun control from the ammunition side instead of the hardware side might be easier and have just as much effect.

That’s fine, but it’s not a particularly tenable position. You are talking about banning every type of gun except for bolt-action hunting rifles. That’s not going to happen, even in your wildest dreams.

I just don’t think that’s true. I think that an assault weapons ban is going to be an incredibly difficult, multi-year process even with President Clinton in office. After that, all the political capital for gun control will likely be spent. We had it here recently in Colorado. A couple of state reps/senators from…

I don’t think that what you say is true. Assault weapons are definitely used in a lot of massacres, but I don’t think that they need to be. In fact, I believe that the assault weapons used by some recent mass murderers have jammed at the outset of the attack. There’s a decent argument that the death toll could/would…
