  1. Well, now he probably knows for sure. He gave it that one last go and now can move on without any doubts. Good luck to him.
  2. I'm hoping this is a very nice trend. Just tuning in. Took a nap after my guests left.

  4. Yes, they do. "The ballpark's field has exactly the same dimensions as Fenway Park and some of the unique features as the Boston ballpark as well. The most notable is a replica of the Green Monster in left field. However, unlike the one in Boston, the Green Monster in Fort Myers has seating within the wall. There are three rows of seats carved into the middle portion of the wall. Separating the seats inside the wall from the field is a net so that balls cannot go inside the seated area. If a ball is hit off the net play is not interrupted, it is the same as if a ball is hit off the Green Monster at Fenway. Another unique feature about the Green Monster is that like one in Fenway Park it has a manual scoreboard. The scoreboard is an older one that had been used at one point in Fenway Park, but before being installed in Fort Myers was in a storage facility in South Dakota. The manual scoreboard is different from the one in Boston though because there is no room behind it where a scoreboard operator can put numbers while the game is going on. Instead, a scoreboard operator works in a room in between the scoreboard and the foul line and has to run out in between innings with a ladder and scoreboard tiles to change the scoreboard." (from wikipedia) There are other things, too, like Fenway, hence the subtitle 'Fenway South.'
  5. I couldn't disagree with this more. When you want to work on fixing 'horrific' attempts, work on the military budget first and foremost. The waste in social programs is a drop in the bucket by comparison. Then work on those programs ... not to gut or delete, but work to make them fair and efficient.
  6. Yup ... which is why I went off the grid to unaffiliated liberal.
  7. I've merged two threads here. Amjgt posted the original Forbes article, while jokin posted the Phil Miller article that referenced the Forbes article in part of it. So, thought they belonged together. And I tried to come up with a collective title to cue you all in.
  8. Then it'll be too late. That Supreme Court ain't getting younger and no way in hell do I want Cruz choosing justices. I know he won't get elected ... but ... the thought of it is the stuff that horror stories are made of.

  10. I just say I'm an unaffiliated liberal with justice and liberty for all
  11. Yes
  12. We can joke on this ... but I honestly find this pretty scary.
  13. Man, you guys are all very lucky I didn't enter. I would have won last place hands down.
  14. Wait ... I thought he was born in Canada. Can he run? I want to see a copy of his birth certificate. As for 'not a serious candidate,' I honestly do not underestimate the stupid voters in this country.
  15. aaaaaaargh! In the top right spot. Usually I can turn them off or mute them within the ad, but when I can't? ugh. I guess I can mute my computer in the meantime. Anyway, State Farm commercial, with an Indian guy retiring ... can't even mute it or pause it. Not sure what the others are because I turn them off right away. Just annoying when you are in the middle of reading something.
  16. Yup ... and what Heezy said ... after all ... I'll take a doctor's word, especially one in this specific field, over what others' perceptions may be.
  17. I'm not so sure about the cheap sunglasses, though ... Hate watching all the sun and warm weather when I'm stuck up here in this mess ... But love the report.

  19. Just read he's out 4-5 days with concussion symptoms.
  20. Ahhhhhhh, get through this entire thread, and this is the common ground you all get to?
  21. Twins up 2-1 in the 6th against the Rays. May did a very nice job pitching. He's not out of this race yet!
  22. I didn't see it ... did it look as if he was hit hard? Hope it's not a concussion ...
  23. May seems to be pitching well at the Rays/Twins game.
