IDK how to find it out, but did any of their big fish sign that petition? Searle? Dreyfus? Butler? Fish? Lakoff? Greenblatt? Reich? Bueller?

Right? My old man, who does not read Deadspin, remembers a true blue Civil War veteran speaking on the town green on the 4th of July, 1945. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that he was cognizant for V.E Day.
I was sixteen & bored as hell, in a second period study hall next door to my mother’s classroom. I raised a hand to run an errand for the teacher, just to get out of the room. In the counseling office, the receptionists had a television on, & the towers were burning. I scurried back to the classroom & spread the word,…
That one stung, & it still does. My mother was a high school teacher, & it was the first day of her April break. We drove all the way to Quebec, found a prime parking spot on the plaza right in front of our B & B, unpacked our things to settle in & flicked on the T.V as an afterthought. I don’t think the news ruined…
As a kid raised on radio in a household with selective taste in mass media, my memories of the Lewinsky Mooinsky scandal are composed almost entirely of Capitol Steps jokes.
I was born in ‘85, & grew up without a television in the house. Still, it’s wild to think how much of that I missed. I remember hearing about O.J thru schoolyard talk, & it must have been the same for Diana. I know that I was old enough in ‘92 to register the election, somehow, but it’s all a blur from this far out…
I was sleeping in a crib @ the time, but my two year old sister did something weird & precocious that night. We kept a woodstove in the kitchen, across from the dining table, & heated the house with wood & coal. My folks were sitting down to supper when word of the accident came thru on the radio, & like most boomers…
Oklahoma City. I was at a friends house playing FZero on SNES, & the evening news came on when we switched the console off. I remember the image of the building in ruins, & I remember running home scared.
IDK: just walking down the street?

I’m With Her
She just wants an ADEQUITE explanation.
Praises to the sound editing genius who made this ...
Ditto @ 413
It’s bogus A.F to set up an equivalence between the personal right to firearm possession - a recently established & controversial right, no less - & the right to, well, go to school or church or the club or the mall w/o being mowed down. One of these things is much more important than the other. If we want to make any…
Father’s Day Theme 2K16, confirmed: the bastard, having left home & donned the black, returns a prodigal, & tho outmatched & undermanned, & becomes - at the final stroke, as if by miracle - a conquering hero.
Kevin Love’s defense on that final sequence was ragged, vicious & perfect.
73 is an weak, odd, selfcentered number that relies on the multiplicative abilities of just two divisors . 72 is a rounded sum, with good fundamentals, built out of solid contributions from a squad of 12. The ‘96 Bulls, FTW. Math.
