  1. Richard Thompson. Got the tickets before I knew the Hawkeyes would be playing in the Big 10 Championship game with an undefeated record. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I'm a moderate Republican. I will not vote for Trump or Cruz or Carson. If they're nominated, I will vote or ant Democrat. I voted Obama in 2008 mostly because of Palin. I voted for Romney in 2012.
  3. Dreaming about a tour. After his last album, Iman dropped a hint at one, but I imagine he's probably done giving his health.
  4. Commodores - Brick House (though the 5th grader version of me who was at that show probably thought it was Three Times a Lady or something like that)
  5. I was really touched by the reactions of the people from North Adams. Selfishly, I've thought they should move this festival from region to region around the country. I don't think that anymore.
  6. If you research quantified easing, you may find that liberals -- or at least Democrats -- own some of the problem of income inequality.
  7. Pretty much every word out of his mouth insults Jesus. If not by name, by message.
  8. But your negative attention feeds the beast! The more he and his supporters are chastised, the more they dig in their heels.
  9. He's an asshat who will not be the Republican nominee and gives us all an opportunity to feel morally superior. He's eminently quotable I the worst way possible, so the media bites. I'm fairly certain he doesn't believe half the shit he says but knows it will get him more of the attention he so desperately craves. We're helping feed the beast.
  10. Any examples you can cite from the last 35 years?
  11. Any attempt to restrict gun purchases is dismissed out of hand by the NRA.
  12. If every act has a rationale, then Friday's attack was no different than the attack on Charlie Hebdo in terms of rationale. He was clearly delineating a measurable difference between the attacks. And thanks for your support on the other point.
  13. The NRA is the voice of gun manufacturers as much, if not more, as it is of gun owners. Profit is driving the NRA as much as any political point of view. Anheuser-Busch couldn't give two shits about minors and alcoholics buying their product and the NRA couldn't give two shits about who is buying guns.
  14. And to throw a bone to my right-wing tendencies, this statement is worthy of calling for his resignation. http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/17/politics/john-kerry-charlie-hebdo-rationale/
  15. This whole topic and the way it's played out on social media has made me quite sad. Say what you will about W., after 9/11 he made it quite clear that Islam was not the enemy. Has any GOP candidate said anything like that since Paris? I understand people's fears about terrorists coming into this country's quite porous borders, but coming over as a refugee would be about the most cumbersome way to do it. Of all the articles I've read in the past 5 days, this might make me the angriest. I don't care about your general views on gun control, you cannot claim to be strong on terror and turn a bli
  16. I'm nearly done with Patton Oswalt's Silver Screen Fiend.
  17. I saw Red Headed Stranger open at Val Air then, but Nels did nothing with Wilco.
  18. Kevin, are you attacking each with the same fervor and glee? If not, outside of you political affiliations, why not?
  19. Today I am in the Twin Cities for the first time in 6-7 years. Going to the Vikings game tomorrow. God, I love this town! I have my stroke-ridden dad with me, so we're already back at the hotel, but still...
  20. It certainly matters more for a man like Ben Carson who cloaks himself in religion and want to use his faith as a basis of national policy. If more dishonesty comes out, I think he will go back down in the polls. One of the attractions of Sanders and Trump is that their followers believe they "tell it like it is". On another note, I'm really surprised Christie didn't get a bump from the last debate and has even been excluded from the next. I thought he gave one of the strongest, if not the strongest, performances.
  21. I listened a couple of hours ago. I like it a lot.
  22. This would be more entertaining side-by-side as Prince is 5' 2".
  23. Saw Love & Mercy. I really enjoyed it. Both Dano and Cusack were great. Cusack had some interesting quirks that made me forget he doesn't look a damn thing like Wilson.
