You’re a bad man and you’re going to hell, Stephen. - Umpire Frank Drebin

Open secret: The FBI had the phone unlocked all along. They wanted to stir the pot and start a debate on privacy vs. security. 9/11 style.

It’s a military town. It’s neo-con Republican. Not quite like the bible belt Republicans. San Diego parties. It’s just gotten a lot trashier.

That was ‘90s San Diego. It really was everything you imagine before the wars started and the streets started filling up with homeless war vets suffering from PTSD, drug addiction and mental illness. San Diego’s a military town, and this country hasn’t been good to vets in the past 15 years. In the ‘90s I used to tell…

It’s not just PB. A middle eastern cab driver was beaten severely in the Gaslamp a few years ago because he lost consciousness due to a medical condition and rolled his cab at like 1 mph into a crowd of people, hurting no one.

You’re describing San Diego in the ‘90s. It was a great city then. Now the infrastructure is falling apart, there are homeless people and aggressive panhandlers literally fucking everywhere at the beaches and in the Gaslamp party district in downtown. A lot of Iraq/Afghan war veterans are in the San Diego area because…

I know Hollywood Hills, Bevery Hills, Pacific Palisades, etc, has seen better days because show biz used to be so much cooler, but I’d still live there if I ever had ‘fuck you money’. The space and the view are worth it alone. The perk to living in the hills is that you never need to leave. Everyone comes to your…

I don’t know about that. I don’t want to be young again. I was miserable in my twenties. I like being the age I am now. I just wish millennials weren’t so confrontational. I wish they would use their imaginations just a little bit more when dealing with what they perceive as mistreatment. At the same time, I don’t…

I hope it was her newspaper Tony Soprano stole.

I should clarify. I couldn’t imagine a Democrat doing a Playboy interview and winning a presidential election a few months later, as Carter did. Trump on the other hand seems to do whatever he wants. In fact I think he did the Playboy interview in the 90s.

Hefner turned 50 in 1976, when Playboy was just rolling. Not sure how much his age has to do with the decline. He’s been an “old man” for decades. I think the point about womens’ rights is closer to the mark. One thing I find amazing about Playboy and America in the ‘70s is that Jimmy Carter did an interview with…

I remember in the ‘94 MLB all star game, just before the strike, Tony Gwynn threw Mike Piazza the hardest look ever in pre game introductions. I swear I was the only one that saw it. No one believed me. No one still does. It’s like seeing an alien. Might as well just keep it to yourself.

What a bizarre picture. That’s the loneliest person I’ve ever seen in the middle of a group.

Holy crapola what a small world Sacramento is. I think KJ’s lawyer, the one briefly pictured during last night’s program, comes into my work. The older I get the more I’m learning there’s a story behind every asshole you interact with on a regular basis, and sometimes it’s revealed to you in the most grand fashion.

I already did.

This. Considering rappers were making songs about this in the ‘80s.

Yeah, yeah. Despite your attempt to steer the conversation toward Democrats, your absence of a denial is noted.

Yep. Like Zimmy simultaneously following Trayvon Martin while somehow defending himself at the same time.
