  1. this video says it's coming. http://screen.yahoo.com/wochit/airasia-plane-carrying-162-lost-124427953.html
  2. i don't have a link, but abc evening news reported yesterday that twitter has canceled the accounts of some 2000 ISIS members. said it was being used to recruit new members and send out lots of things they couldn't tolerate. good for twitter.
  3. any time a player description comes with the moniker "when he's healthy", that's a pretty good reason to stay clear of them.
  4. johnny van der mer's second no-hitter. any of ryan's no-nos. 79 angels vs. royals where fred lynn and brian downing nearly crushed each other making that amazing catch in left center. the angels first clinching game in '79.
  5. "Mr. Blanton said high-level officials should operate as President Obama does, emailing from a secure government account, with every record preserved for historical purposes. "Personal emails are not secure,” he said. “Senior officials should not be using them.” The revelation about the private email account echoes longstanding criticisms directed at both the former secretary and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, for a lack of transparency and inclination toward secrecy. two thoughts about this: because personal emails are not secure, they could rather easily be intercepted by a third party, and that raises security concerns. the other thought is that because they're personal, she or her aides can delete them, and that's no different than shredding documents. i'd like to hope this will bring her down, but the media loves the idea of her running for president, so i doubt much becomes of it. but yeah, it's just another log on her fire of secrecy.
  6. wouldn't silver bullets also do the trick? and maybe a little garlic, also?
  7. so, who from the original cast has passed besides spock and roddenberry?
  8. i prefer to call them the "po po".
  9. they brought in some chinese immigrants to fix it real quick, just like the good ol' days. too soon?
  10. maybe the most talented and aggravating player the angels have ever had, and to date, our only batting champion. what was the cause?
  11. Done that a few times with mixed results. The deli fridge at the counter never, ever looks like it's holding fresh food, regardless of which grocery store I go to.
  12. Good for Paddy. Watched the final round on the dvr tonight. That last threesome played so slowly I ate dinner twice. This Berger kid could be fun to watch.
  13. The first few months are always tough because the fields are always so wide open. Two weeks in a row now the 279th ranked player in the world has won. This week the playoff involved a 21 yr old in only his 12th career start. Hard to pick with these kinds of oddities.
  14. wow, they look like absolute crap yesterday. disorganized, sloppy in their own end, turnovers all over the place, passes to the wrong side of the stick - just a complete crapfest yesterday. i don't know who those guys were that recently won 8 in a row, but i wish they'd come back.
  15. took my daughter and a friend last week. they did both parks, but my daughter only had a ticket for one park. to purchase the park hopper addition was another $54. bastards.
  16. my wife and i are fans of "madam secretary" and were very glad to see it back on the air last night. the supporting cast is good, and tea leone is very credible as the secretary.
  17. i made it all the way through "the world's last man", and i have no regrets. it wasn't hilarious, but it was kind of fun watching him roam around everywhere he wanted and not worry about obeying things like traffic laws or taking stuff he wanted from stores. i also like that he stopped at a lot of museums and took famous paintings to put in his house. * * * SPOILER ALERT * * * the chick is kind of neurotic in a way that may serve as a good foil to him.
  18. welcome to the world of emotional stability, baby kaylynn!
  19. i like delis, but it's hard to get a quality cheese sandwich at most of them. i wish more delis would carry smoked gouda and smoked swiss. the toppings are fine, but the cheese and the quality of the bread make a world of difference.
  20. the panda inn restaurant in glendale closed. not sure if it was just ours or if others were affected. doesn't seem to have affected panda inn express.
