It is not just deep red states. Oregon is a blue state (with pockets of red.) Democrats have +16 in the State House,+6 in the Senate, and the Governorship. Yet Senate Republicans successfully staged a walk-out to stall an education funding tax bill. And the Democrats folded and compromised by killing a gun control…

It is about the charactered portrayed not the performer. Most fans, especially kids, only saw Marc Copani as the “Evil Arab Mohammed Hassad” during that time.

I’m Stateside and I knew that song despite what Jimmy said.

Estate taxes should be lower than they are now. I’d be fine if estate taxes are abolished since it is often double taxation.

Excuse me but Houston weather never becomes tolerable.

I hope Frank Kaminsky was taking notes.

Scrabble is no cooperative and you picked two games that will not satisfy that itch in my opinion. I think at least one Tim Fower game should be there: Paperback, Hardback, or Word Domination.

Interesting how differently Deadspin and The Daily Beast headline the same story -

I thought this was true until I recently moved two Ikea bed frames. Same sizes, different models. They disassembled and reassembled almost exactly the same. Nothing broke. Two people - less then an hour a frame.

Mariner’s fan here realizing how things could be much worse.

Also back then - No DLC, No microtransactions, No Sacramento Kings.

Similar background as you. Similar feelings about Napoleon Dynamite. I just didn’t get it. It felt like they wanted to be relatable but weren’t. I do give it credit for helping popualarize quirky, small, and independent comedies.

And a drunk guy is going to be able read license plates, a little sign, and car description that looks like every other car? Nope, he is going to take guesses and this guy died because of it. Uber is partly responsible IMO for putting him in that situation.

In the USA and other countries, you can’t copyright board game mechanics. You can see the logic in this. Otherwise, we’d have about 8 board games. This is why board games can play similarly but not violate any laws. What can be protected is everything else including title, artwork, character design, board design,…

The quality use of the word quality.

Unsure what you are talking about - He was named lead announcer for Fox broadcasts before the World Cup. (As a Timbers fan in PDX, John Strong is great. His approach has been excellent.)

I took driver’s ed in 1995, before Airbags were required in the USA. I was taught to use the shuffle method instead of hand-over-hand because it avoids taking your hands off the wheel.

It is free if its crossbuy. You do have to digitally “purchase” each version separately though.

I still own my Wii U and these games (and a Switch.) I’m sorry people missed them the first time but I want sequels. Absent those, I’m glad people are getting to play them.

No. It says the President must be a natural-born citizen. That has been taken to mean that the President either must be born in the USA or born to a US citizen. This is why Ted Cruz is eligible to be president despite being born in Canada.
