  1. I just got a call from Jas P Lips (caller ID). He was calling for Marvin Lopez.
  2. http://www.areasofmyexpertise.com/hoboes.html http://www.e-hobo.com/
  3. Having visited Woodstock and the general area (not sure where Woodstock '99 was actually held), I'm guessing that the opposition is to a casino, itself. Not the hallowed ground where Limp Bizkit played (or whoever).
  4. From what I can see, the buzz seems to suggest an air assault on Iran.
  5. I thought that log cabin was somehow a reference to Lincoln's childhood home? I couldn't find said NYTimes piece, but I did find this. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/17/books/re...783&ei=5070 Any help with a link, Bjorniepoo?
  6. He's told them about an October surprise?
  7. Au contraire. Socially aware pop music, my friend. Good Morning, this ain't Vietnam still People lose hands, legs, arms for real Little was known of Sierra Leone And how it connect to the diamonds we own When I speak of Diamonds in this song I ain't talkin bout the ones that be glown I'm talkin bout Rocafella, my home, my chain These ain't conflict diamonds,is they Jacob? don't lie to me man See, a part of me sayin' keep shinin', How? when I know of the blood diamonds Though it's thousands of miles away Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today Over here, its a drug trade, we die fro
  8. Because it was the sixth inning. They could've called it and would be an official game.
  9. Kate was not much interested in treating her migraine with a bloody Mary.
  10. The White Sox took advantage of the mud, while Charlie Haeger was absolutely nasty in the process of keeping the M's at bay. Hopefully they can pull it out.
  11. I'm sure there would be a riot if it wasn't, though.
  12. Kind of a questionable move to continue the Sox-Mariners game today after a long rain delay in the 6th. People are flopping around all over. With Juan Uribe on second, Dye hit a grounder to short. Uribe was tagged out at third and Dye fell over two feet from home plate and was out on a weird double play and out of the game.
  13. Then again, maybe teams aren't dumb for walking a guy who has a .411 batting average with runners in scoring position.
  14. I can't find any splits for IBBs, but I suspect that most of them came towards the beginning of the year. That's when most of his total walks came. Thus his crazy .547 OBP in April.
  15. Yeah. In part because of an excessive amount if IBBs. Not that he can be blamed for that. I wonder how many of those came during games in which Moises Alou was out.
  16. I got pwned by the rain while canvassing for Tammy Duckworth.
  17. He's older than you, Bobs. He may be a thirteen years-old in a timeless way, however.
  18. I'm considering writing a full blown rant on what seems to be an increasing trend of complaining about benefits for married/parents/attached to family,community,oroutsideworld employees, but I think I can succintly put it this way. Prospective employees with children are attractive because they typically really need a job. They have a greater incentive to stick around and strive to remain employed. They also have greater incentive to strive to do well so that they can be promoted. Obviously, childless employees have the motivation to do well so that they can provide for themselves, but paren
  19. Oh boy. He was making a joke, as in...you would have to be out of your mind or out of sorts to look at child porn at work.
