Snowden was arguing balls and strikes about a country that cares about balls and strikes and decided that he'd rather spend the rest of his life in a country that kills the umpires.

Mattie knows about pardons.

Whoopsie. Put the wrong kid on the live broadcast

Hey China. Screw you...look what we can do with our technology in Ukraine and in outerspace. We can hit a bullet with a bullet 7 million miles away.

yes indeed

It definitely clarifies the issue for moms who want their daughters to have rights under the Constitution and those who think they should be obedient.

its a threat to their way of life

Pretty fair analysis. So long as JJ and the coaches realize they left points on the field and know what to fix. I understand there were plays they didn't do (this is Sam Webb and Devin Gardner pointing this out to me) that they tried no RPOs or reverse or sweeps.

Rogue One was as good as any of the WWII action movies of the 50s or 60s (e.g., Guns of Navaronne or Bridge on the River Kwai)...almost as well acted but not quite. Not saying Diego Luna and Felicity Jones are slouches but they aren't David Niven and Gregory Peck or William Holden and Alec Guinness.

Like where Andor is going. Grittier and realer than all other Star Wars content. Its a tease for all us people who wished the franchise had stayed more serious.

Much more mature than the very disappointing dumbed down Boba Fett. That one could have been so much better but they turned it into an 8yr old's idea of what a gangster boss should be like.

seems a bit like the third episode of Andor.

My daughter's softball team lost a game Saturday on a base running mistake-driven triple play (if I had been coaching the team this season I'd have had an cardiac event) and the coach proceeded to have a kumbaya after the game to see how they were all feeling. Michigan had a meh afternoon against Maryland. My son's Spartans got destroyed like they stole something and the Lions were SOL. So, if I take a little joy from the suffering of the Jerk Sox fans...begrudge me.

We knocked the Jerk Sox out of the playoffs!!!

Ukraine does appear to be pretty good at using information to its advantage. When it helps them to put out information they do. When they get good information about targets of opportunity they move. They happen to have outstanding First World assistance with getting that information and they are excellent in their own rights.

Wait a little longer. This has become VVP's idée fixe. He's locked in on that and won't budge with all his corporal-quality strategic insights. I see other moves being much more productive for Ukraine.

Got to love the mockery

The weird #chinacoup rumors going around.... all driven by Indian accounts.

So, once the referendum and all this other theater is concluded. He may threaten nuclear weapons for attacks on Russian territory or formal declaration of war. Whichever...screw him.

Good things are happening the last few days. News has been a bit blacked out on it.

This was pretty weird. Today felt like a day that the gambling interests made some money on the punters.

It was a coup.

Interesting thread
