I hope Berrios does Pete Redfern proud

 

Redfern and Al Newman were awesome in that western about how they shot their way out of the Pacific Coast League.

Since we discussed calling indigenous peoples "Natives" and "Indians" earlier this thread, I consider it my duty to point out that "Eskimo" is now obsolete as well.

Obsolete??

 

No, his doctor told him it's treatable.

Question mark usages or not are all the rage on the Interwebs tonight

?

Actually, in case of fire, I'd be more than happy to help anyone in this room out safely before leaving myself. That is, anyone besides you.

 

And I'll have you know that while I've never needed rescuing from a fire or sinking ship, I find it irritating when men assume I'm not strong enough to open a door for myself, etc. So no ... I don't think I just want the "good parts" of equality.

Jeepers cats, I was only kidding! Here's the bit (it's funny, but a few salty words).

That's twitter's fault.  Single reason for America's yearly IQ drop

Here comes Jepsen.

You have my permission to rescue me from a fire.  Or a sinking ship.

 

Again? Being saved from the Titanic wasn't enough?

[diehardtwinsfan]

That and TD seems to think it's OK to remove the spaces after a period.

[USAFChief]

One run lead, top 9.  

 

Quick, everyone collect things to throw at the TV.  You don't want to be caught short.

I blame my lack of IQ on my parents..and drugs. Mostly drugs. And Twins baseball.

I'd have thought that after being on the Mayflower, he was done with ships.  I heard that was a tough trip.

You'd think he would have learned his lesson after the Lusitania.

Following the Twins is a result of a low IQ, not the other way around.

[LaBombo]

 

Uh...it's Inuit.

 

 

 

That figures.    My last safe space to get over the trauma of tax day and somebody has to go and bring up TurboTax...

Trade for a good backstop first.

Potato, Potahto, potatoe..whatever...

[USAFChief]

Quick, everyone google names of old ships to pile on with.

 

We'll wait.

[David HK]

 

I've actually heard this story before... Was it mentioned in Ken Burns' documentary? I can't think where else I may have heard it.

Yes.  I believe it was in the teens or 20s decade of the series.

You might have just proved his point

[D. Hocking]

I thought it was the one with all of the animals two by two and a lot of rain.

I sort of umm..and we were talking about?

Seems more appropriate for this evening.

[USAFChief]

I didn't grab enough stuff.
