I always give myself a buffer zone of time because I’d far rather sit and read at the gate than run and stress about whether I’m going to make the flight.

Congrats, your cat is now a drug addict!

Mine has taken to scratching the headboard/bedposts just out of reach so I have to roll over to swat at him. I hate him.

I’ll admit, it’s exactly the word “privilege” that bothers me. I think it’s just a somewhat different view of how society works and expectations. I expect as a baseline not to be hassled/attacked/etc. If person A assaults person B, I don’t consider it some benefit to person C not to be assaulted. “Privilege” makes it…

My spouse feels the same way.

Rory having some Troubles I see

Let us know if it ever works again. 

yes. He is making a case but not backing it up. Correlation does not equal causation yet this is how he is framing it.

I thought the major concern was that Kubrick would want reshoots.

Sanders was, bar none, the most physically gifted human being I’ve ever seen play the game of football.

One of the most annoying things about Sanders coverage was the running line that he didn’t know what he was doing, he just had fantastic reactions or some such nonsense.

If he had ended up on teh cowboys and Emmitt was on the lions Barry would have had 25k yards rushing and emmitt would have been a night manager at a bowling alley after 3 years in the league.

I became a 6 am convert just last week. I was visiting my parents in the Florida Keys and was supposed to fly back to DC around noon. My flight got cancelled because of terrible thunderstorms. The only direct flight I could get was the next morning at 6:49 am. I had to get up at 3 am to make it to the airport with…

I’m regretting this as I type it, but this is a way restaurants can get your butt in the seat and order, then spring the added cost at the last minute. I support paying benefits, but I hate this sneaky crap. Just roll it into menu pricing with a note on the menu.  I’m wondering which MOA place this is, as I very well…

Or the other day I saw a video of a police chase where they were attempting to apprehend a suspect in a stolen car, and their idea was to PIT maneuver the stolen car several times...thanks for getting my car back guys!

“The last human on the Moon was Gene Cernan in 1972.”

The 6 am flight is less likely to be delayed as well.

The weird thing is how easy the US makes it look. We put feet on the moon with minimal computing power and now horribly antiquated technology. The fact that countries with very capable engineers and the power of the internet and ridiculously good computers can’t succeed reliably, is a testament both to the skill of…

I dunno how hard is it. Alice almost went there many times.

Forced diversity is just a gimmick and gimmicks are almost always just an attempt to compensate for fundamental shortcomings. When will these people learn that using political/cultural controversy to sell something almost always results in failure.
