    Anyone know what is up with this one? I don't think the link to the job posting has ever worked.

    Pray for Bill Jauss

    Best wishes to him and his family and I hope for the best. As a kid, I watched Bill every week on the "Sportswriters on TV" on Channel 32 in Chicago. I grew up wanting to be a sportswriter partly because of that show. I met Mr. Jauss many years later during a NCAA first-round women's...

    The Essential Starrcade Collection

    I've lost track of how many times I've watched the "Flair for the Gold" match from Starrcade with Ric Flair challenging Harley Race in the cage for the NWA title. That era of wrestling was so, so cool. I also love the Magnum TA vs. Tully Blanchard "I Quit Match" and the Roddy Piper vs. Greg...

    Bono narcs on hit-and-run driver Bob Novak

    I love this thread because: 1. I learned Bob Novak drives a Corvette. 2. I get to post this link:

    Atkins

    I've dropped 20 pounds since January following the Atkins diet. My triglycerides have gone from "High" in January to "Normal" in June. The key to the Atkins diet is it essentially eliminates refined convenience foods. You won't eat anything with refined flour or high fructose corn syrup. The...

    Running 2008 PGA Tour thread

    Kudos to Steve Lowery on his third Tour victory, all of them in playoffs. He has hit two of the most amazing shots I have ever seen; the double eagle at Castle Pines in 2002 and the 3-iron he hit out of the bunker yesterday on No. 9. Watching a tournament at Pebble Beach in high definition is...

    Plasma vs. LCD

    1080i = interlaced picture 1080p= progressive picture In other words, the progressive picture means every single pixel/line is filled. In an interlaced picture. every other pixel/line is filled. Progressive is a little better but both of them look really, really amazing. You don't need the...

    Sopranos 6/10 -- THE END

    Henry, that was my thought exactly. There is the exact same cut earlier in the episode when Tony goes to visit Uncle Junior. I always interpreted those cuts in Kubrick movies as the passage of large amounts of time, such as at the end of 2001 that you mentioned. I wonder what Chase meant by them?

    Uncontacted tribe comes out of Amazon jungle

    That's cool stuff. On another note, I believe the first tribe ever encountered by Western man was the famous Fun-gowi tribe. They were noted for wandering through the underbrush, getting lost, and then yelling: "WE'RE THE FUN-GOWI!"

    Wow! Golf photos worth a few minutes if you have time

    Great pictures! I love the 10-year-old kid in No. 25. Is it just me, or is young Austin going at the ball like Ben Hogan? I wish I could get on the inside part of the plane like that youngster :)

    To union or not to union?

    Several friends of mine have asked me for help on this and I am not sure how to answer them. I would greatly appreciate any help on this. A friend of mine works for a weekly that has recently come under control of a metro paper. This friend's shop is a non-union shop. However, the dailies that...

    Sopranos - 5/13

    Nice work on posting the lyrics. I think there is also a parallel there with the "Twilight Zone" episode mentioned by the guy in the back seat of the car to Tony in an episode a couple weeks ago. It's the guy who took over construction after Vito's demise. The Twilight Zone episode he is...

    Sopranos - 5/13

    Wow WOW. The symbolism on this show just tugs at the back of brain. There is something primal about it. Some Tony/Livia parallels: Tony suffocating Christopher the way he tried to do to his mom after her stroke Tony feeling joy for maybe the first time ever, unlike his mother Tony's...

    Re: Stay away, AirTran Apparently you weren't flying to Orlando tonight with Cap'n Huss... Great screen shot. Is that a real game? Is that Flight Sim?

    Choke on it, AirTran!

    Re: Stay away, AirTran Agreed and I still think this is far, far from a done deal. The hedge funds which bought Midwest stock in January are ready to sell. I have no problem with that because they exist to make a quick profit. As far as I can tell, the hedge funds represent less than 10...

    Pet Food Recall

    Just took our kitties to the doctor today. Even though our cat and dog friends hate going to the vet, please take them! They are OK once they get home. They are back to normal and a little prevention goes a long way.
