We can take solace in the fact that, in a very cool turn of events, Clyde was reunited with Hakeem many years later, to win the second of back-to-back NBA championships.

Whoa - very cool - yes I've noticed that in lifting weights. Interesting to think that after death, there is still all of this chemistry going on in the body - never thought of that - but makes sense, given at some point, decomposition starts to set in…

Yes - my only biology was high school biology back in 1988 - about the only thing I remember was the Kreb cycle - not to say that I understood it at all. I remember a diagram of a circle with arrows and different molecule names….

Kreb cycle or gtfo!

Thanks! I actually wasn't sure - it's feasible that they only counted a 5 day week (6 weeks in a month) - I'm curious how other cultures divided up their moon cycle - whether a 7 day week was more of a European thing - or pretty consistent globally…

Thank you for including the full quote. It drives me crazy when they say Trump called Mexicans rapists - he also called them problem-bringers, drug-bringers, crime-bringers - I mean, let's tell the full story here folks.

Those Germans with their crazy 5-day week.

Cool! They must have also moved the photo rows around as well.

I've got that album - something else about that - the cover has three rows of b/w photos. Each row is overlaid with a color (red, yellow, blue).

I got the impression O'Brian's strategy, in the first three games, was to call a very conservative offensive game plan 1. b/c he had a defense that was stifling and 2. trying to ease Osweiler into the offense.

Did you happen to notice the technician running the test had an unfiltered Camel hanging out the corner of his mouth. Did he tell you "Look, baby wolf!" and when you turn to look, he exhales into the emission tester.

I was raised Catholic - but my wife is Southern Baptist - I converted to Baptist (I was never a devout Catholic). Baptists have a funny view of Catholics, to them, you aren't saved just by virtue of being baptised as an infant - you have to invite Jesus into your heart. So to Baptists, a Catholic may or may not be…

Kramer vs. Kramer: the scenes of Dustin Hoffman in the kitchen making breakfast - a nice little story arc. At the beginning, Dustin has no idea how to fix breakfast and get his son off to school - by the end, they have this quiet, efficient routine down - without words, this establishes the strong bond formed…

Yeah - I had a buddy from HS work in the dairy department at Kroger's. We'd pick him up from work to go drink - he'd have to change b/c he reeked of spoiled milk.

Yeah - filled in on my best friend's route for about a week - it just sucked. I'm not good at getting up before dawn, to rubber-band all of the papers. Riding a bike with 50lbs of newspapers hanging off your shoulders is friggin' exhausting. Also, not every house takes the paper - so I'm not familiar enough with…

Good question - I don't know if there is a protocol - doesn't appear to be based on the responses. I'm like you - I generally add $2 - $4 tip - and I also leave wondering if they think I'm a cheap bastard…

Awesome - I hope you like it! I wasn't aware of the follow up until I looked up Ruark on wiki - I'll have to see if I can locate that.

Ooooh - never thought of that scenario! pretty cool.

Have you read Robert Ruark's "The Old Man and the Boy" - I just finished it. He wrote a series for Field & Stream magazine from '53 - '61, that was later published in book form. Basically about a boy being raised by his grandad in coastal North Carolina. It is all about hunting (quail, turkey, duck, pheasant,…
