The only person being held hostage in this situation has been Mark. He doesn’t have the money to get a stadium done by himself. It’s not like anybody should feel sorry for him, but it’s a fact, a fact that’s fun to ignore for a lot of people. He has to get a stadium done wherever he can, yesterday. No conversation…

How many times was ‘Schumer-Biden Rule’ listed in the article? What about Robert Bork? Miguel Estrada?

Having a deadlocked, 4-4 court could lead to judicial chaos surrounding environmental protections, voting rights, and so many other issues that are important to everyday Americans. This delay has gone on long enough, it’s time for the Senate to do the job we were elected to do.

I fear that this amazing team-effort by Michigan post-plane crash will give Jim Harbaugh terrible, terrible ideas for team building.

Bill Paxton was one of those actors who took thinly written, move-along-the-plot characters and delivered fully rendered people.

I always said that if they could give an Oscar to Kevin Kline for Otto they should give one to Paxton for Hudson.

There is not a work day that goes by where at some point during the day, I muter to myself... “Well that’s great. That’s just fucking great.” as yet another problem comes crawling into my inbox. I imagine myself as Hudson stunned and dazed surround by an apocalyptic scene of carnage and debris.

FWIW, every now and again I used to chase storms with Vince Miller, who is former Weather Channel meteorologist and was the technical adviser on Twister. Given the nature of storm chasing, you usually had quite a bit of time to kill before things got going and Vince would often tell stories about his time on the set.…
