That last quote isn’t actually from the battle flag’s designer (William Porcher Miles), but rather William Tappan Thompson, who used Miles’ design and put it on a field of white (white symbolizing both Heaven and the white man) for the second Confederate national flag (“the Stainless Banner”). At the end of the war,…

A few additional tips: get creatively specific but not always explicit with your acts. “I want to f*** you on the couch” is boring and dull. “I want to bend you over the couch” says the same thing while engaging the imagination. Talk about where their legs will go, or what your hands will do, or what parts of your…
Hey Jeff, congrats on new job! Sorry to see you go. Say, what’s your mom’s maiden name? And what was your high school mascot?
Nah, that’s another very tall and storied actor, James Coburn.
Yes and no. I remember this article from the June 2014 Texas Monthly last year, about a family of bank robbers, who were just hitting the tellers in 2012. They pulled in $70K from one branch bank in Katy, Texas (per capita income, ~$21,200) in June that year and $30K from another in September. Not retiring money, but…
Oh for sure. I wanted to highlight this one, because someone else replied about what a terrible human being Ty Cobb was and how A-Rod had him beat hands down on morality, etc. etc.
Also, that’s approximately 13 lengths behind Secretariat had American Pharaoh been running on the day. As it was, Secretariat beat the field by 31 lengths. So, yeah, it’s significantly slower, but Pharaoh would at least narrow the margin of victory and remove that record breaking lead from history (which had…
Well, it wouldn’t matter, because Cobb was an outfielder. I guess Bonds would’ve been a better example. Right now, Mike Trout is sort of tracking close to him, although Cobb rarely swung for the fences like Trout does.
No doubt. But the question was “Why haven’t horses gotten faster?” and they have. It’s just that they haven’t all gotten faster than a very fast horse.
They have, on average. Look the footage again. American Pharaoh runs two seconds behind Secretariat. Slower, but not crazy slower. Certainly not slower than Secretariat’s competitors. But American Pharaoh’s competitors are faster too.
Paypal sent me an email saying it was starting Thursday and that I should buy Digital Steam Wallet Cards from them now. Which doesn’t make too much sense, seeing as I use Paypal for my Steam purchases, so what do I need the Steam Wallet Cards for?

He’s got Taye Diggs’ smile, that’s for sure.
“Wow.”
GRRM has explicitly said Robert is most closely modeled on Edward IV, but he hasn’t mentioned much regarding the Illiad as a basis: http://www.westeros.org/Citadel/SSM/En…
Does it? It looks like it presupposes that Kinsman has exhausted all her legal avenues to prove Winston at all culpable except for this one suit. It does maybe presuppose that Winston is an asshole defended by assholes. I suppose rapists are assholes too. You might think that means one is the other, but I couldn’t…
Time for another Ray Hudson found poem:
Bernie’s the Daddy Paul of the Dems. He’s got a strong showing of support among people who are already supporters of Bernie Sanders. He might clear Vermont, but that primary is on what’s left of “Super Tuesday,” and a win there will be outshone if Clinton wins in Florida, Massachusetts, Texas, and Virginia.
