  1. that's because i've chosen not to run. duh.
  2. also forgot robin leach. never really considered him much of a celebrity. he was kind of the caleb cowart of hollywood.
  3. i'd also like to see jim johnson get a new contract in kansas city.
  4. mr. soto is not white. but he wears a cowboy hat, fwiw.
  5. if i was in the position where i needed asylum, i would take the time to find out what procedure my intended new country would want me to follow. i think following a nation's laws is important, especially if i'm trying to escape to that as my new home. i don't know all the specifics of what's happening in mexico and elsewhere, but it seems to me that sneaking over the border (instead of following whatever procedure and laws may be in place) is going to carry a good deal of risk with it. is it going to be worth it to me? i'd better know ahead of time and be prepared to deal with those consequences, whatever they may be. i also realize not all people may have the time or resources at the time they decide to run to follow protocol. they, too, had better be prepared for whatever consequences may follow. i was never really aware of US policy for this issue until the last year (and I'm guessing most here weren't well versed in it, either, until it became a national story). if there's a way to reform the process on both sides, it's worth doing.
  6. i showed that to my gardner and he cringed repeatedly.
  7. what i remember most from those shows was that he yelled constantly.
  8. my jr. high kids would tend to disagree with you. some years, it's been like they created their own orchestra.
  9. terrific writer. aretha, mccain, and now simon. there's your three.
  10. i wish all of the knuckleheads around here would get this point.
  11. meanwhile, kendrys morales has homered in 7 straight games, the first switch-hitter to do so. the major league record is 8 straight games (dale long, ken griffey, jr., and don mattingly).
  12. i had the lucky hat in tow. i have no idea what went wrong. i know this was one of the most stupefyingly boring games i've ever been to. the hat gets one more chance on tuesday night. make or break game for my lid or else this will happen: i'm showing this video to my hat in hopes of doing a 'scared straight' sort of deal.
  13. well, um, how 'bout that.
