I just scheduled my first colonoscopy. Obviously I've heard the worst part is the prep with fasting and drinking the stuff... I'm just letting y'all know in case it prompts someone to get off their ass and schedule theirs if eligible.

Tigers will have 3 All Stars and be in 1st pace at the break.

The government going after an entity that cheated is not a hard thing to sell to a true independent. Rules were broken, per the jury verdict. My only point is anybody who thinks that the gov't is targeting or being unfair to him isn't an independent and is probably voting for him anyway, or not voting at all. Nobody is going to say "You know, I wasn't going to vote for the guy but dagummit, this is just persecution, Trump 2024!"

If anyone sees a conviction in a civil case about fraud and that it's Donald Trump and is sympathetic that maybe the government is victimizing him then I wouldn't call them independent. A true independent would look at it as "If I were to sue somebody, and win, then I want to make sure the courts do their job to get my award to me"

Just not a fan of the "I went 12 rounds in the ring" look.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/19/politics/trump-bond-deadline-panic/index.html I wonder if he can get a couple of them to go under the amount to meet the overall total? This is fun.

That tweet came from this article in Salon about how the evangalicals handle the sexual roles between men and women. https://www.salon.com/2024/03/20/evangelicals-embrace-raunchy-photos--yet-they-hate-as-much-as-ever/ Key paragraph about this tweet: This is a perfect distillation of Gibson's point. Keisling isn't celebrating sex, much less sexual pleasure. On the contrary, he's signaling to these girls that sex is a weapon to be used by men to degrade them. He is telling these girls that their accomplishments are a joke to him and that the only value he sees in them is as sex objects. His behavior is in direct opposition to sex-positivity. Instead, girls and women are made to feel bad and grossed out by sex.

He's a "christian" though

There was also a shooting at a bar in Romulus. Van Born and Merriman which isn’t that far.

Yeah that wasn’t very far away. Thought I read Carlysle? I live behind and a block north of Iversons and Elmhurst.

So enforcing the law is Venezuela?

I will say that it's easy to just throw out names, like I have done, but there are logistcal matters as to the how this gets done. I don't htink someone just writes a check. There's also the pride element. Would Trump want it known he was "bailed out"? Would he rather just lose some properties and then claim "they stole it from me"? That might be a better take for him to sell.

Not to relitigate past discussions.... but the move of Fister move was blasted at the time by casual fans and talk about selling high. But then I will always maintain that DD panicked and couldn't be patient and within a matter of hours traded Ray and Eugenio Saurez. You could reverse or change a couple of moves during that general time period that would have dramatically changed the fortunes of this franchise the next 10 years.

Part of me is like "I wish that's all I had to worry about today".

I got one in 1996. My wife did an internship in Springfield Ohio. She was my GF at the time. I looked at a coverage map for Cellular One and it reached that far. I did the math and it was cheaper than calling her long distance. Remember long distance? Zone calls? Like calling Livonia from Dearborn could cost you $5. In 2002 I got my current phone number and have had it since.

Doesn't the judge have a duty to the victim in this case to expedite they get their money. I do think the benefactor will come in. Elon.

Penny only pitched in game 6 of the ALCS after the Tigers were way behind.

This lady is bat **** crazy.

I’m resigned to the fact that there’s nothing more that can be done to motivate people. I don’t know what more can be said or shown or expressed. The country is at a dangerous crossroads and the people have the power to change it just by voting. It’s a simple task and easily attainable. No blood has to be shed. No tricks. Just go vote on Election Day for not Donald Trump and not republicans and our country survives.

You might be thinking of the time Freddy Garcia pitched in a makeup game with the white sox on a Monday after the season ended that had a playoff feel to it. They needed to win it to force a one game playoff with MN.

Yes! That’s it. He should have won the CY in ‘16. In ‘17 he was just as good.

In ‘14 I recall Verlander being the question mark. Wasn’t he battling nagging injuries? Didn’t appear to miss time but definitely an off year. Was that when he had core issues in ST? Led to some disagreements with the Tigers medical staff. Anthony Fenech was digging into it which led to a thing.

Having retired siblings with nothing to do but obsess over items that are like #278 on your list. An aunt died late last year and the memorial is next month in TN. I’m driving down by myself for various reasons. This is located in a college town and in the area near the freeway every possible hotel chain you can imagine and some you never heard of is located there. I mean you have 3 or 4 sharing a parking lot. I quickly glanced at availability and its wide open and prices are fine. I’m being bombarded with questions on where I am staying and if I want them to book (no, I want to utilize my points) to let them know when I booked, etc. keep in mind I will see this sibling 4 or 5 times before we leave. She’s local. I’m working. I have a wife. A special needs son. I’m going out most nights doing stuff. I’m not worried about this. It’s not on my radar especially at 2:00 pm on a Monday. It’s not that big of a deal.
