Then let him remain a Sabre.

She's not socialist in the Stalin sense.

TIL that a poetry slam is a sport. Fishing is sport too.

Half a lifetime ago, I was supposed to go climbing and canoeing with a couple of guys from London. I had a fever because I had gotten lost hiking the day before and the temperature dropped, so I told them that I would go climbing, but that I wasn't getting into the canoe. They had never been in a canoe before and I KNEW they were going to capsize. I also KNEW that they wouldn't listen to me when I told them never to stand in a canoe. They made it back to the lodge, drenched in a 45 degree lake. I stayed warm. I know you're talking kayaks and not canoes, but still, no, don't stand! Dude, there are people in this thread who think that auto racing is a sport. Kayaking actually is, though.

It's Long Island.

There was a class action over this one. The nurse is appealing.

I can't watch anymore. It is late. On the other hand, I get to be a viking:

Remember when? The "three-headed goalie monster" was perceived as a problem. It was a blessing. Miller with the Biron backup was solid. Not as solid as Hasek with Biron, but still. I said just this when I was with my parents on Sunday!

No, he's still alive. EDIT for @Doohickie RIP Simonick still is alive.

And Lehner DID win it. He was the reason. If Vegas is doing this, it is incredibly stupid.

I just don't see this. My mother took me for vaccines and it was, ok, I'm getting a shot in the arm. Mom said so. As for the "these days" stuff, I still can't agree. I know too many parents who take their kids to get various treatments (especially adolescent girls for hep) and it's just normal.

This is so nicely stated. Thank you Zamb.

So. My kid sis had this huge crush on Robert. When Bowman, in a fit of idiocy, traded him for John van Boxmeer, my sister quickly affiliated herself with the Penguins, because Penguins were cute. Of course she grew up and understands that the Sabres are the true team. But it was funny for a year when she was little.

Ugh. Trying to edit the topic. Mods might help. May eternal light shine on 14.

158 posts in 15 years, about 150 of which seem to be in the COVID thread. Take it for what it's worth.

Is it really forcing? Child is a minor and you make the medical decisions.

I'm glad my niece (12) is vaccinated.

Thought you were with NPR?

That was Johnny Fever. (Howard Hesseman.) An absolute classic. Because it was a fictional television show and not real-life NPR in New Hampshire.

I'm missing a stream for this one, but from the score it looks ok. Every guy who was a boy in 1980 is rejoicing. Let's see 19-0.

Just rest. The NCAA has been stupid for a long time. I'd rather more scholarships for future scientists and leaders and fewer for guys who can catch a ball but not do much else. These are supposed to be educational institutions, and our taxes fund them. There really is no need for a nationally-funded and state-funded training camp for football and basketball players.

Nope. Just the R.

Yeah? Well YOU don't appear to be an official, franchise-licensed Aud smell. So there.

MLB shouldn't be gimmicky. BTW I stumbled across this, this morning: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/13778435/uni-watch-friday-flashback-baseball-turns-ahead-clock-1999
