Re: John Madden Retires

John Madden IS NFL football.

That having been said, I'm glad he's retiring now and not staying till he reaches the point where his skills have declined embarassingly.

Re: 2009 NFL Season

[quote="aeroparrotI would take Jim Zorn over Wade Phillips any day. In the two years Philips has been coach at Dallas, the Cowboys have regressed. Last year was Zorn's first year.... obviously there are issues that need to be addressed for a first year coach. I say Philips has one more year and...

Today, as I mail checks to the OTC and the IRS...

...I'm also firing off, via electronic debit, fifty samoleons to the Libertarian Party, to become a "Strategic Member".

At least one of my payments today will be money well-spent.

Help with the most pressing question of our time!

Were Philo Beddoe and Orville brothers or just friends? They both call Ruth Gordon "Ma", but Philo introduces Orville as "my friend". We had a long discussion about this last night at work and came to the conclusion that Mrs. Beddoe might have taken Orville in at an early age, an...

Re: 2009 NFL Season

With Jimmy Zorn as their coach and a QB that even they can't wait to replace starting under center, no wins will be "easy" for the Deadskins. Here's the only 2009 NFL schedule that matters: REGULAR SEASON (TV) Sun., Sept. 13 @ Tampa Bay (FOX) Noon Sun., Sept. 20 NEW YORK GIANTS (NBC) 7:15 ...

Re: Ship's captain freed!! 3 out of 4 Pirates Dead!

"A Pirate Looks at 5.56mm" Assuming you're referring to the standard 5.56 mm NATO round (5.56x45mm), my way of looking at it is: 52 grains of 'whoop-ass'. And there's a whole lot more where that came from......... http://www.clipartof.com/images/emoticons/xsmall2/711_smiley_shooting_rifle...

Too bad the captain wasn't rescued by Coast Guardsmen carrying .40 caliber SIG pistols.

Then we could've really had title for this story. :)

The Somali pirates have now vowed revenge: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/6369121.html IMO, the only way to deal with these dregs is to kill every pirate who touches an American citizen or an American-flagged vessel.

Re: I just ordered...

I actually prefer the Anguilla version of "One Particular Harbour" to the studio version. It has a lot more energy. I also like the Anguilla version of "Treat Her Like a Lady", but can't compare it to the original because I haven't heard the studio version yet.

Re: I just ordered...

I have seven of the 18 songs on other CDs (some of them live versions).

My last two JB CD purchases were "Banana Wind" and "Barometer Soup", both of which were excellent.

I'm completing my JB CD collection a little at a time.

Re: Choose, please, from two extreme possibilities.

If you want, you can also mention why you chose the option you selected.

I chose anarchy because, as repugnant as it is, it's still far preferable, imo, to totalitarianism.

Choose, please, from two extreme possibilities.

If, in the near future, all the countries on earth coalesced into only two nations, one totalitarian, the other a state where total anarchy reigned, which would you choose to live in (assuming you had a choice)?

Re: 2009 NFL Season

Actually the Cowboys started off like gangbusters against the Bungles, then had to rally at the end for a 31-22 win. Watching it on NFL Replay today reminds me of how great Felix Jones was and how unfortunate it was that he got hurt last year. Jones was a big loss for Dallas last year. So was McBri...

You think the Chiefs are going to draft a QB after they traded for Matt Cassel? Bonehead mistake: I TOTALLY forgot about the Matt Cassell trade.
