  1. Peppermint Patty had moxie. Lucy VanPelt was just a spoiled brat
  2. I don't remember seeing it here, but Andrew Romaine retired last week. Some comments about filling some big shoes in Detroit...
  3. This has been around for a couple of months now. It doesn't get into the weeds as most of the quizes about where you stand on the political scale. The explanations are better than most https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/quiz/political-typology/ As In expected I landed right in the middle of the Democratic Party spectrum (Mainstay) https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/11/09/democratic-mainstays/
  4. Maybe if he paid a bit less for the hoodie......
  5. Reminds me of the old joke. Anyone who has ever complained about The Little Drummer Boy's parents allowing him to be out so late never had a child in beginner band. I admit to being one who tortured my parents with those damn song flutes and later clarinet.
  6. There were a couple that intimidated me purely on the volume of traffic. M5 and Pontiac Trail and 14 Mile/NW Highway/Orchard Lake RD. The flow seemed better last time I was up, but still folks don't seem to know how to merge yield/merge properly and the biggest issue seems to be the every man for himself attitude combined with an aging population in those areas who have no business driving.
  7. Sounds like the definition of the National Guard which is already in place in every state. Now if all gun owners were willing to undergo physicals, do the yearly training exercises and attend the monthly (or quarterly) meetings....
  8. The Brian Williams spot on MSNBC? Cuomo's ex-gig on CNN PBS????
  9. They use guns to assult and kill people. That's all I need to know. Anything else is picking at nits. Waiting period Education License Insurance Demand these things and we'll talk turkey
  10. I saw he was on yesterday and wanted a day or so to decide. I guess he preferred UVA over Duke. This was after the OC from Penn St turned down the job. I guess the board voting $$$ to upgrade facilities helped sway him. Now if they can find a decent defensive coordinator.
  11. Seeing reports that Josh Gattis may be in the mix to replace Bronco Mendenhall at UVa
  12. 6.8% inflation. We’ve been spoiled as citizens. I’m old enough to remember much higher rates and mortgage interest at 18% I also remember WIP buttons from a beloved Republican Administration
  13. Quick, somebody give her a Mariah Carey booster.....
  14. Here is the entire presentation https://web.archive.org/web/20210716135230if_/https://www.ingersolllockwood.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/voter-fraud.pdf
  15. They had a power point presentation (but it wasn't an insurrection, it was an attempted coup)
  16. On the plus side, now Trumpers no longer have bad breath when they get in your face
  17. So that's why TFG wears Melania's bras (or so I've heard)
  18. That's on top of taking care of your own family, especially if you have young kids. I imagine it's even harder these days with older kids as well
  19. I was in a APBA league using historical seasons. When I started we were drafting players from 1930 (this was 1991). I left a few years ago as we were entering the '80s. To much quibbling over whether uncarded players could be used among other things...and one of the old timers asking the same questions every draft. The league still seems to be hobbling along. One of the members has been active in tournaments in the region (until COVID)
  20. Personally I think PD's get a bad rep from movies and crime shows on TV. I used to belong to an APBA League, one of our members was a supervisor in the Cook County Public Defender's office. Nice guy, had his quirks and smoked bad cigars when we played face to face, but he knew his stuff and if I needed an attorney to defend me I'd consider him if he was in private practice. Long ago in a galaxy not too far away, my son got into a spot of trouble. On a recommendation from a business acquaintance we hired an attorney. Walked into the office, it was the firm that handled Jeffery Dahmer and Mark Chmura's cases. The case was never prosecuted but the guy they sent us seemed nice.
