  1. Plus T. Boone Pickens, Bob Perry and Harold Simmons funded the Swift Boat Veterans bullshit to attack Kerry's military service in Vietnam. That's when I knew that the GOP wasn't above attacking one of the sacred pillars of the party's identity--supporting the military--in favor of power.
  2. From a rub 'n tug window in CP (no longer there). I snapped this about 5 or 6 years ago on my way to get a pint at the corner bar. I think it took a couple months before they caught their mistake. Or was it intentional?
  3. It's the NFL adopting the corporate world's "fail fast" strategy. Except unlike the corporate world where it may take years or even decades to perfect a technology or process before it's capable of going to market, in the NFL there's always another crop of draft picks each spring to sift through.
  4. Trump winning in 2024 = Secretary of State MTG. He'd use a 2nd term to go scorched earth on all of his political enemies, foreign and domestic. And what better way to give a big middle finger to NATO than to send the three-toed spawn of Satan + a garden gnome on international junkets where she can stick her finger up her ass and fling shit all over our European allies?
  5. I'm mildly amazed that Sargeant Sam Cox hasn't found a way to join the grift and get a speaking slot at these rallies. Is it possible he's TOO racist for MAGA? Or is his unforgivable sin just being old?
  6. I hear ya both. That was around '90 or so when Stewart had a late career revival covering great songwriters before he decided to try and be a schmaltzy crooner. Downtown Train (Waits), Broken Arrow (Robertson), Have I Told You (Morrison). I remember the creepy video for BA with cherubs on swings and shit.
  7. So Phil Waldron is a retired Army colonel, aggie, and a Trumpkin? Isn't that the trifecta for Maga?
  8. Norah's an excellent suggestion and now that you've planted the seed I can't think of anyone who would be a better fit either vocally or musically than her. That being said, I'd be shocked if the fires moved the needle towards a reunion. Stevie and Mick have long established roots there, but would Lindsey performing for a show or two make a sizable difference in any funds raised? Probably not. If they wanted to raise serious coin, Zuckerberg--who owns a couple thousand acres on one of the islands--should challenge Musk to a dick measuring contest with each putting up a billion dollars. That's essentially what they were trying to do with their stupid MMA match that's never gonna happen.
  9. Pardon me if my sarcasm meter needs calibrating, but Rod Stewart had a top 20 hit with it.
  10. Wait until you read the latest Family Circus where Billy walks 50 miles trying to get from A to B. It's a knee slapper!
  11. Of course Glover drains the 30' bogie putt. Jesus.
  12. Hey now, pushing the special Diet Coke button while screaming at an aide to tune the TV to the gorilla channel will take its toll on anyone!
  13. OK, if Glover can pipe his drive after his right foot slipped 8" on his follow through it just might be his week (again). And if Jordan's birdie putt misses by one long blade of grass on the edge of the cup it just might not be his week (again).
  14. Cantlay chipped in to join Spieth at -13. And Jordan just hit one of the worst chili dips you'll ever see. He and Hovland are making a mess of the 10th. Jordan drops to -12.
  15. This tourney feels like everyone is just wiped out from slogging through the heat & humidity all week. It looked earlier today with guys shooting at pins & dropping putts that the field was going to reel in Glover. But it's like everyone's hit the wall, the putts aren't falling, and Glover is just Steady Eddie-ing his way around the course. Holding out some fireworks on the back 9.
  16. Jordan with 2 (should be 3) birdies in his first 3 holes. One back of Glover. Rory is off to his usual blistering Sunday start.
  17. And they're under weather delay. Sounds like another 30-45 minutes before they start back up.
  18. Jordan (left) and Viktor (right) both missed the fairways on one then both stuck their approach shots inside the leather. This could be a fun pairing. And Jordan blows the birdie putt.
  19. Is this a sneak peek into Joe Rogan's leadoff topic on Monday?
  20. Perfect Phone Call of Protest....wasn't that that the title to Tears for Fears' third album?
  21. My bad. Must've read the leader board wrong. Glover missing that birdie on 18 brings a lot more players into the mix.
