nothing to lose this year. go for it, mike.

"Beans for Hillary" - awesome.

lecavalier was such a hard working player on the ice. never really got to see him play much and didn't know much about him, but i was impressed with his work ethic as a King. would like to have gotten another year or two from him, but i get that he's done.

with toronto picking up andersen and paying him well, i wonder what this means for jonathan bernier.

it's not like he would have heard me say it.

an experienced one will be available next january.

This is a very young team without much leadership on the court. They also have questionable talent and several holes to fill, plus they're going to have a rookie coach. 30 wins from this group would be impressive as things now stand.

In the fourth quarter of games 5, 6, and 7, the Warriors shot something like 5/14, 5/19, and 5/16.

Forgot to mention that Lou Ferrigno was on our flight home yesterday. I first noticed him at the gate as he ran over my foot with his carry on bag. Didn't seem to faze him to have my foot in his way.

still not going to walk on that bridge.

sadder still that there doesn't seem to be any way to put an end to it. i feel like chicago has just thrown up it's collective hands and said "uncle."

i lived and worked in massachusetts one year. heard several times how the bible predicts california is going to break off the continent because of an earthquake and just simply be swallowed up in the water. no one could ever prove it was in the bible, but a lot of them certainly believed it. there were also those thought celebrities just walked the streets like everyone else and you could run in to them all over the place. one kid thought san fran was about half an hour away (by car) from los angeles because they looked so close together on a map.

i like the closing shot in that denmark video. well done.

i'm in total agreement with you on this, FS. at a time when we know that a sworn enemy has declared they're going to come after us, it doesn't make any sense to keep importing more people from the same area. there's no way our vetting process of this refugees, whatever it may entail, is going to be accurate or reliable. heck, half the time these guys have three or four names (that we find out about after the fact). put things on hold for a while. no harm in doing that.

i can't help but feel like you're trying to send a message to me, vegas.

channel 7 news reported this kid showed up in vegas on saturday and went to a gun range to learn how to shoot a gun. then he went to the trump rally on sunday and told a cop he wanted to get close enough to the stage so he could get trumps autograph. at some point he then tried to take the cop's gun from his belt holster, but the cop wrestled him to the ground and cuffed him.

in houston gas was anywhere from 1.95 to 2.25. we have a chevron station here in glendale that makes me want to hit someone. drove by his station today and his prices for all three grades of gas: 3.39, 3.79, 3.99.

i'm guessing @tdawg87 could hook you up. probably get you a tranny or two at the same time.

and cowboys in the old west.

same for tattoo artists who constantly ink the locals with "only God can judge me."

they'll name it "Gere."

as long as there's no rain in the forecast. i was really, really, REALLY looking forward to seeing everything there, too. Idiots.

so sorry to hear this. not sure what else to say that won't sound trite.

the dog will be gone by Christmas, when peyts will get a cat/hamster/ferret.

After we disembarked yesterday, we headed to Johnson Space Center near Houston as we had several hours to kill before our flight left . . . We had a truly awful experience. Took the tram ride to see the astronaut training center. While inside the building, a storm broke loose and it absolutely poured. The morons running the show told us because there was lightning, it was policy to evacuate the dry, safe building and go outside to get back in the tram - the tram with no side covers - to return to the main building. We foolishly complied and were soaked to the core (24 hours later and the shirt I was wearing is still wet). The rain was blowing sideways on all of us, except for the guides who all huddled under the cover where the driver was located. We got back to the visitor center and were offered only small paper towels to dry off. I was furious as not only my family was drenched, but several other members of our group were likewise soaked, and we had just another 90 minutes before heading to the airport to fly home. While some of our group were able to buy dry clothes in the gift shop (they were given a discount), that's not possible for me. Managed to find my suitcase under the bus and had to talk my way into being allowed to use some kind of office or break room to change instead of a tiny bathroom stall. Nearly took an act of Congress to do so, but it got done (Unfortunately, I didn't have any extra fruit of the looms in the suitcase, so I flew home commando - didn't enjoy that at all.) They refunded our money for the day. The manager of the place was told very sternly by several how absolutely idiotic it was for his staff to remove us from the safety and dryness of the building to deliberately put us all back in the rain where the lightning was. He was apologetic, but that didn't really help. The guy at the counter behind me to get a refund had his $600 camera ruined by the rain. Manager said if it was not fixable they would likely try to replace it. The guy's wife wisely asked him to put that in writing. But as bad as my experience there was, it was still better for me than it was for the poor Rangers fan who showed up wearing his Hamilton 32 t-shirt. Poor bastard.
