  1. https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2023/05/21/ripple-effects-from-sec-suit-could-strengthen-coinbase-litigation/ Potentially huge ramifications for the Biden administration's war on crypto.
  2. I forgot I had started this thread. I never posted the follow up (to the OP) a few weeks later: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nuclear-fusion-60-minutes-2023-01-15/
  3. Wow. Round of 32 part 2 was the best episode of the season by far. Only a couple of boring matches and a lot of excellent fights. I shit the bed on my bracket picks going 3 for 8, but I'm not complaining.
  4. Victoire appears to be deathly afraid of spicy peppers. She might faint at the sight of a jalapeno. She had no chance succeeding at any challenge featuring Indian, Thai or even Mexican food among many other international cuisines that embrace the heat. You can't be a top chef if your repertoire is that limited.
  5. Yeah, we watched Man called Otto lat night. Pulls on the heartstrings even though not everything in the movie really worked (too slow in parts, too hokey in others).

  7. Thanks to everyone who recommend Jury Duty. I would never have given that show a chance otherwise and I'm quite enjoying it.

  12. Costco usually carries a sticky toffee pudding in a freezer aisle around Thanksgiving/Christmas and it is a sure fire sugar death/coma, but it is delicious.
  13. This new learning amazes me. Tell me again how sheeps' bladders may be employed to put out refinery fires.
  14. I missed on Bloodsport and Claw Viper. Hats off to Madcatter. They underperformed during the season but it looks like they figured some things out for the tournament.
  15. Tom the German appears to cook good food, but he seems like a very selfish asshole. Not a team player at all.
  16. Last I heard, it sounded like they had the fire under control. Folks in Channelview probably wondering what dumbass is burning hot pads on their BBQ grill.
  17. Smoke blowing to the north. Reports of two injured so far.
  18. I went 6/8 on my bracket yesterday. It should have been 7/8. Bloodsport/Lockjaw result was a major fluke.

  20. The economic malaise of the Jimmy Carter years sucked ass. We are still enjoying today the fruits of shitty fiscal discipline and monetary policy many decades later. Huzzah for shitty system design.
  21. Tournament starts tonight, but there isn't a fight card for tonight's show (that I saw anyway). My bracket is ready.
