  1. I need a good mystery game for Mac OS (hopefully) or at least IOS. I played Whispers of a Machine the last two days and I enjoyed it.
  2. Are these Kirstie Alley eps? Because I don't remember them and I also don't watch Kirstie Alley eps.
  3. Need instructions. This sounds good.
  4. He's the idiot who once, while announcing a Lions game where several (Yzerman et al) Red Wings were on the sideline, said that he couldn't recognize hockey players because they wear masks. That's right. The Miracle on Ice guy thought that hockey players in the late '90s / early '00s wore *masks*, while announcing a game in a sport where the players *actually wear masks.*
  5. It sells papers.
  6. Edmonton Oilers player Colby Cave has died. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/29024099/oilers-colby-cave-25-dies-suffering-brain-bleed
  7. Adapted?! This is why I'm happy that my religion embraces, rather than rejects, science. I actually learned about evolution in religion class before I learned about it in biology class.
  8. Just my experience: For most people who are faithful and/or religious (the difference to me is that faithful believe and religious actually go to services other than on holidays), faith isn't blind.
  9. Why not? We've nothing else to do. One of my favorites always has been Gary Thorne. And not for hockey--he was good at that, but he's an amazing Baltimore Orioles guy.
  10. Sometimes they are the same. Our word "charity" comes from Latin "caritas."
  11. That is a lovely work of charity.
  12. Key episodes (my favorites): The one where they play the poker game in house, the one where Norm has to fire people, and the one where Carla assaults the Yankee fan. Or anything else involving Coach.
  13. At the very least, it requires registration. It may be a free article. Can you summarize it?
  14. Also, I have one pupusa left in the freezer and that is going to become breakfast in five minutes.
  15. The article you linked also is paywalled, so no one can read it. The religion thread is open for business.
  16. We had a religion thread. It was not controversial. I can't seem to find it. It seems that a lot of people want to talk religion right now, which isn't unexpected given the events of our times. This is your safe space. Please be respectful of people of all faiths, of people of no faith, and of different sects of faiths (screwy protestants /s). I know that religion sometimes, unfortunately, intersects with politics. This isn't the place for that. The politics club is. This is for discussing religion, whether you are religious, faithful, or neither.
  17. I am starting a new religion thread. Can't find the old one.
  18. Lent is almost over. I'm thinking steak tonight, if I can find steak.
  19. I read Sidd Finch by George Plimpton, does that count?
  20. It looks like there are only 20 masks there.
  21. Insomnia... Insomnia... You border on the Adriatic. Your land is mostly mountainous, And your chief export is chrome.
  22. He was great. Come on. You're not old enough to really remember Healey!
  23. Closed and I am not happy. @dudacek is talking about a different system. He is Canadian.
  24. Lorentz was great and I think he was the best of Jeaneret's various broadcast partners.. It was a sad day when he left. Was it Neale who was his replacement initially? Because Neale wasn't horrible, but he wasn't Lorentz. And now we have Shrek.
  25. Ugh. Even though he's not the same as he was, he's still the greatest PBP announcer in any sport that I ever have heard. The way he describes what's going on--or maybe the way he used to--is/was sublime. A quote: Ever the optimist, he expects the Sabres to be in position to make the playoffs next season for the first time since 2011. “Well, they better or I won't come back for 51,” cracked Jeanneret before turning somewhat serious. “I got a feeling there won't be a 51 anyway. It has to come to an end.” Why? “I'm getting older, I'm getting slower, I'm getting all kinds of things that are slowing things down a little bit,” said Jeanneret. “You’ve got to come to grips with this. You know you can't go forever.” The link: https://buffalonews.com/2020/04/10/buffalo-sabres-rick-jeanneret-announcer-future-jim-lorentz/
