This is a very ugly story if true. Even if partially true.

We are post Thanksgiving x-mas decorators, real-tree putter-uppers and I would not have it any other way. Also, white lights are where it's at.

That was the show I fell in love with the band (in the key of C) And bingo on The Mess Hall. I still remember that I needed to plug my ears due to the sound level and the lack of actual music. Those were the guys that took pics of themselves next to the show poster outside the theatre

I think they opened for Wilco in New Orleans that spring, correct? The worst opener was that band from either Australia or NZ that played the STL show in 2006 I think. God they were AWFUL. 3 pieces of imperfect noise.

Boy am I prescient or what? 6-5-1 after the first 12 games. Campbell, Hossa out, and now Bolland not playing tonight and probably heading to an extended absence. Ouch.

The only thing I am going to insist on if she becomes president is a law that allows us to recall her.

Oh crap Donna. Many many many hugs from here. Whispering to you what I say to everyone and to myself when an animal who has been fiercely loved passes on and when the tears are so thick you can't see

Word.

I'm still watching back episodes -- only started watching it last year. I HAVE A LOT TO LEARN!

Then leaving the kitchen out of separate doors at the same moment. Poetry in motion. He does seem to be having a bit of an.... epiphany doesn't he? He really does believe that Meghan is the answer for him, yet Peggy and Joan were deriding him and his decision to "marry his secretary" and Peggy especially unappreciative of the moment when Don thanked her. Although that felt really honest to me -- am I also snowed under by his charm??

The race commences to be able to do this Even with all of the off loading of starters, the 'hawks have kept their stars and added some good pieces. I am optimistic for the conference finals though the beginning will be a little rocky.

This was easily the worst feeling I have ever had as a fan of the Bears. Ugly win indeed.

Hugs and healing vibes from Chicago

Chicago's budget problems (like most municipalities') are relatively recent.

And just what is a ball-ectomy?

I love how OTM starts a thread about Mayor Daley from Burkina Faso And this was definitely surprising. While many people do not like him, they generally cannot deny that he has done quite a bit for the city.

Did he say "livin' in.... Aspen"?

Fixed it for you Probably very low, though that should be the song they play together.

Well she was back on with a vengeance last night. I audibly gasped twice last night due to her dealings with Sally.

I think it would be pretty forced, though it would be funny if she moves into the Chelsea and meets Edie Sedgewick. Or if she starts staying up all night all the time and ends up as a patient of Dr. Roberts. The possibilities are endless My only disappointment this season is the lack of Betty. She's been on, what, about 5 minutes?

Just that last scene where she is by the elevators with her cool new pals and Campbell is standing in the lobby of their office with all of the straight guys is very telling. They are going in different directions. There is of course more to that scene than that, but this is what struck me.

Crow -- thanks for posting.... It's awesome.

I feel a lot less proprietary about the band than I do about line breaks. I have ADD to the max so reading your review and posts is pretty much impossible.

It's all part of the master plan. $2.75M for a goalie who has not played a full season so close to the cap is not smart. They didn't want to lose Bolland or Sharp. Turco (veteran goalie who turned down more $$ to play in Philly) at less than half the price makes far better sense. Niemi likely will not be signed at that price; at least not by any team in the NHL. KHL maybe. Zito did a real bad thing to him -- he has a big tag on him and not many teams left to turn to in a year where goalies are going cheap.

Since the White Sox are in first place 2 days short of Aug 1, I guess I can come back to this thread. Any chance I can get a cliff notes version of the first 44 pages?
