'Tis but a scratch!

Just read on MLive that Dingell will move to A^2 and run for the Washtenaw county district 6.

Multi-verse is the ultimate RetCon.

Yeah, Dingells old district was a terrible gerrymander, but if wash co is most of a new district she can win it.

40 sb is worth a portion of the walk deficiency. Though the prob with SB is some teams can take them away pretty completely.

Take care of yourself. Even with all the COVID blowing up I managed to a very nasty conventional cold this month, so you never know till your tests come back.

Boy Scouts are now on the ‘out’ list

Whatever new deal Harbaugh scores, it won’t be payed from general funds, Ward is going to have to go out and raise the funds and that’s not an overnight process.

much of what is in the 10 commandments can also be found in earlier codes with varying levels of religious framing.

Actually the East side would be Ypsi. Now that is another whole story......

Culture is full of anachronisms. It's the natural state of things.

just multiply all the Covid numbers by 820/550. ......

someone in either WaPo or the NYT made a reasonable argument that a referral from the committee just makes the DOJ's life more difficult. Of course the writer assumed the DOJ was eventually going to get there anyway. I have no way of evaluating that piece of the arg.

No - no. I'm just responding to the Buddha's implication that I live a life with no contact points with Red America. I buy a lot of Gatorade from Red America. Of course as to the first point - you do get the occasional wahoo in a dualie pickup tryng to blow you off the road. Not particularly appreciated.

good read

Let me be clear up front that I don't think it is likely in the least, but should M win out in the playoff we are going to be driven absolutely crazy locally with Harbaugh speculation.

I only mentioned it because as noted, some of the media still act like the Tigers are a fall back for Correa and I don't that is true at all. I can't see any way the Tigers are interested in mirroring the Rangers.

and here I always thought it was just because the Spanish built their ships from Mahogany and the British out of oak.

fair point. though on the LGBQT issues while it is true inner city churches are often conservative, the don't generate much political power since theirs is the minority view within the democratic party to which they mostly belong. Same lack of political relevance as moderate Republicans suffer today!

and it is, or should be, ironic that it is Evangelical America which seems to have the most anti-communitarian outlook right now. I guess they missed that 'common religion' somewhere? There is definitely an aspect where it isn't just religiosity pre se but the nature of the particular strains in vogue.

actually Buddha, not so far as you may think. When I hop on my bike for a 20 mile ride, I'm deep into red america at the far end. The lines that divide red and blue MI are very sharp and run right through Western Washtenaw county.

What would you expect - he may have a back story but Biden is the guy elected by the 'secularist' party who elders in his Church would love to excommunicate if they could. Go out to rural or southern evangelical America more to better appreciate the undercurrent on the other side. If you are gay in American one would wonder what universe you have been living on with that level of sanguinuity about the influence of religion on US law.

I can't imagine the Tiger offer is still on the table.

we know how closely ESPN follows the Detroit sports scene.....

could be a long day for Stroud, assuming half of Utah's D doesn't also opt out!
