  1. Did you have a good national margarita day? http://nationalmargaritaday.com/

    Tank 3.0

    Is leaf blower a euphemism for the Toronto media?
  3. I'm with Wildcard on this one. Connolly was widely reviled when he was here, but since some articles have come to light that he's struggling mightily with what appear to be the after effects of his injuries from playing. Let's find someone equally reviled but without the seemingly tragic post-hockey story.

    Tank 3.0

    That's what we've been saying about the Bills and Pats for 15 years.
  5. There's a joke floating around on FB: I was a perfect parent until I had a baby. Trust me, the kid comes first *a lot*. Begrudging someone a few hours of fun time with their kid because it makes you uncomfortable isn't a good look. That being said, there's no way I'm taking a one month old to a game, if nothing else the sick and unvaccinated people could cause some serious issues with the kids health. If it wasn't a huge imposition for me where I live, I'd take RosePie to a game any day (she's 18 months). Rose likes when I put hockey on TV, I have no doubt she'd enjoy a live game. She enjoyed watching people at the EA outdoor rink around xmas. Come to think of it, I took her to a motorcycle race in the fall. Am I a bad parent? (not the same race, but the same guys)
  6. Fizban the Fabulous.
  7. Let's say more secure, financially, if not actually better off. The industry I work in tends to be more stable under Republicans, even if I'm not sure their financial polices are better for the country as a whole.
  8. Same with Cru jones. :)
  9. I think you meant Danny McCaskill style. It's all sand and alligators and snakes down there, right?
  10. I find it amusing that Trump being a political outsider, he may well be running one of the most typical politician ploys as the central (only?) tactic of his campaign: make promises to the voters that there's no way he will, or can, keep. This only makes sense if you believe all voters fall into one camp or the other, and that the politicians in each party always toe the line. I think a Sanders Presidency would be different than Clinton. I do agree that Clinton is closer to a moderate Republican than many Democrats. From a voter perspective, if you don't fall into one camp squarely, there can be a lot of internal debate as to which things matter most to me. Personally, I'd probably be better off financially under Republicans, but I can't get behind their social policies. Similarly, I don't have a huge issue with guns although I do believe there are improvements to the way their handled in the USA.
  11. The toilets I saw in Cambodia were fine, I don't know what the issue would be. Gay porn hard. #Goon
  12. LTS, summing up my thoughts exactly. I'll second all of that, other than I haven't had DLF. Sweet baby Jesus was OK, but the day I tried that I also tried a Mint Chocolate Stout that was a better beer; if only I could remember who made it.
  13. Somewhere on here a week or three ago a poster was complaining that Jack kept trying to wrap-around. This is exactly it. Teams know he can score on the wrap so they have to guard against it, so that opens up other plays. Like running the football to set up play-action. More importantly, is there a regional pancake recipe you can make into a video tutorial? (thanks again MODO, I really have to try it out) Curses, Taro, that's more or less what I was going to suggest. A point, a shutout, and a penalty (probably limited to a penalty for roughing or a fight).
  14. We're talking metatarsals, not phalanges! Lettuce feels that this season, the loss of ROR for a month isn't that big a deal. Relax.
  15. Did they even exist when Buffalo was using that jersey? :)
  16. I actually don't mind it, I ate it a few times when I was visiting NC a bunch of years ago and it does seem to grow on you. I'll be drinking at least one Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye, and my wife is making fajitas. We're trying out some Tex-mex Jackfruit I found at Wegmans.
  17. Vinegar :thumbdown: Tomato :thumbsup:
  18. Leftover fortune cookies and a Kind Hickory Smoked granola bar.
  19. I'd almost guess BBQ wings existed (in other places) before Buffalo chicken wings did. I normally order them if I'm out as "Buffalo" wings usually leave a lot to be desired.
  20. Yep. He's not exactly an expert at making money, he started with a ton of money, and has used that money in highly visible ways to "make" money, that apparently haven't beat the stock market over the same timeframe. Everything has risks, but I really worry about Trump taking risks with the National Economy. I don't necessarily want the President (and government) to play it safe, but I do want them to play it smart. That's not something I can see Trump doing.
  21. There's a clutch in a washing machine; it's how it goes from wash to spin cycle.
  22. Speaking in logistics, if the President shows up every person there needs to be background checked, searched, etc. I'm sure there's a fair bit of that anyways considering the others that would be involved, but I have to think it levels up when POTUS is on the attendee list.
  23. Well, right. I just meant the particular guy that started the current dust-up.
  24. Ah, he's not Vermin Supreme, never mind. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermin_Supreme
  25. Huh, I never heard that. I knew the circumference around the equator is larger than from pole to pole (the spinning fattens it up a bit) though. It's some rapper guy. I'm not convinced it's real since I'd never heard of him and now a ton more people do; viral marketing and all that. I'm not sure it works though, since I can't remember his name.
