    Friday contradictions

    Gotta kill some time. Some thoughts on Friday. I clearly have no clue so best to be oppositionally situated. --Misch was pretty decent in 2 of his 4 starts last year and might help keep the score down. Kendrick, himself, has had a rough schedule with games at Colorado, Cinci and Metland...

    need new source for pre-game umpire info

    For game #1 of a series, at least. I used to use mlb.com's gameday. They would have it available a good hour before games. Four or five days ago they changed their format and now I can only get "previews," right up until first pitch--can't even see lineups like they used to provide. Another...

    on the drumming in Zeppelin's Kashmir

    I can't get enough of this song. Bonham rocks on every track this band presents. Let me know of any takes regarding better drumming (by your point of view) in any rock n' roll song and I will certainly check it out, whether I know the track or not. Page is/was exceptional but Bonham made this...

    alternative cancer treatments?

    I had a friend die of (lung) cancer about 7 months ago. Another friend of mine is currently on route to the hospital for a third surgical procedure to remove a cancerous growth from his bladder (not exactly the bladder but some tube that connects to the bladder). I've done some of my own...

    anybody here read The Conservative Mind by Russell Kirk?

    For starters, yes, there are conservatives up here in Canada. Just curious if anyone has read this book. It's apparently often used in university political science courses, at least in the U.S. Often cited in other more contemporary works in political science as well. From 1953, it traces...

    Sat May 3rd downtown Toronto (and elsewhere)

    :weed: Should be a good time. Anybody else going? :weed: An event held for several years now. Put on by NORML (National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws), which I long believed to be originally formed in America but it was apparently started in British Columbia. Going to be...

    4-28--couple of Monday squares

    Mets -1.5 -102 0.71/0.7 yankees +105 0.5/0.52 --Impressive showing vs Smoltz yesterday so I think the Mets can get enough off of Snell and company to cover this puppy. Santana shut down Pitt in his only start vs back in '06 and looks good to grab his first Mets home win here. Snell...

    not another demon problem (simple (sorta) April problem #2)

    Help! A demon has invaded my life. This bitch has given me one last opportunity to communicate with the outside world and I have chosen here as the problem that has been posed to me might best be tackled by those on this forum. This foul creature has transformed my knees into lettuce. Not sure...

    Why can't I kick ass like that posting?...It will come, I suppose, if I start to daily. Funk integrity, or whatever you wanna call it-- I'm past-posting; Saturday was my first sweep with 3 or more calls. Sizeable on Tigers, phillies and cubs. Stl und, KC und & SF over to boot.

    second round starting 4-24

    That number 24 is pissing me off. Wish I had some beer. Must to be shopping tomorrow. 1st round: up some, though not enough to buy the Yankees. No major surprises in the 1st round. Second might have some--not sure what to do with these series offers so figure I'll take a pass. I think there...

    on the pain of relieving the Hurt

    Frank Thomas was let go by the Jays Sunday. I've had my eye on his career since its inception. When he started I was somewhat into looking for good rookie card investments :rolleyes: and Frank got out of the gate pretty quick with a great deal of potential. Him and I (and Bagwell, too) were...

    anybody else smoking Indian Reserve cigs?

    I have been for about 5 or 6 months now. They were okay at first but lately I find them too raunchy. There is CLEARLY something other than tobacco in these mothers--there is some white-looking chit in them, I just pulled some kind of chunk of wood or something out of a recent one and they also...

    Sat Apr 12th

    Dang Cubs was a large swing for me. Had the 2-0 lead. Catch Carlos when he's hot (thought that was the case for that one). Missed my over by 4 runs and my under by 5. Good grief. Even Astros coulda saved me--Oswalt's previous great work at home and vs Fish made it appear sweet. Appearances...
