    Who do the hot stewys work for these days?  

    Had an absolute smokeshow on Icelandair a couple weeks ago.  No pics, weirdos.  Just think of the sexiest 6 foot tall, blue eyed Icelandic woman you can think of and that's her. Did not get as lucky on the flight home.

    Elon might want to watch his back or he's going to find himself disappeared to the gulag in El Salvador...

    Or he might fall out of a window, Putin style.

    I’m doing a few days in Estes to do some RMNP hikes, a few days at the Grand Mesa to do some fishing and hiking and the rest I’m still trying to plan out.  I need to finish planning because my room in Estes is booked for the second week in July.  So do I need to schedule a park pass or can I show up early and get in like I’ve read on some sites online? 

    You can get into the park without  a timed entry pass before 9am, but you will not be allowed to access Bear Lake Road.  To access Bear Lake Road, you need a timed entry pass + Bear Lake Road access.  A regular timed entry pass is not enough.

  4. Surely you guys can't keep DeBoer after that, right?  This is turning into a him vs. Otter situation.  And I know who I would pick if I were the Stars.  So maybe I should root for Pete to stay?

     

    I have no idea why he felt like throwing Oettinger under the bus was the right move after the game.

  5. Tim Miller doesn’t call himself a Democrat but pretty completely repudiates all of the positions he previously held as a Republican (or rather, mocks them).  
     
    I think they are more interested in taking down the Emperor than figuring out where they lie currently on a left-right spectrum, and I’m fine with that.  
    I have no doubt some of them will come back to the GOP after Trump is gone. Miller probably stays on the left, though. Being gay doesn't fit with today's GOP.
  6. ftr, i feel like at this point we should just have a 20th century top 10 and a 21st century top 10, but until that’s SOP, here’s my latest all time top 10:

    also, part of me says that wilt should be the GOAT, but that it’s so blindingly obvious that we all suffer from some sort of social phenomenon that makes us act like he’s not the single greatest and most dominant player ever. the reason you have to shoot ft’s from behind the line is because he was dunking them. that’s insane. he’s unquestionably the most dominant ever. 
    also, jokic is definitely one of the 10 best players ever; top 5 if we’re being honest. but he needs more titles before he cracks my top 10 greatest ever. he’s right there with shaq, kobe, oscar, etc, just outside my top 10.
    With the new CBA, titles are going to be far more infrequent. You can't keep teams together anymore.

    Check back with how they feel when he starts missing a third of the season.  He played 72 games this year and that's the most since 2019.

    Says the guy with Chet on his team.

    If all you have is a hard tire left, why not let Max stay out behind the safety car? His mediums weren't particularly old at that point. I feel like these teams always underestimate how many laps it takes under yellow to clear the track. Max would have had 6 laps to try to fend off Oscar and/or Lando. At worst, he drops to third. Instead...they restarted him in 3rd on hards. Just awful strategy, resulting in an embarrassing temper tantrum.

    I was also surprised they pitted Lewis.  His tires were only 3-4 laps old and he would have picked up at least a couple track positions by staying out.

    really thought they were going to push it to a game 6 after how things started last night. Florida is just a frigin wagon at this point.

    either way not bad for a re-tool season. Spend that 30M in cap space heading into next season correctly and we might actually win 2 games in the ECF or something.

    Rantanen fucked Carolina worse than he fucked the Avs.  Giving up Necas and Drury for, in the end, Stankoven and some draft picks hurts when you're a contender. Even if those picks pan out, they're years away from being difference makers.

    I kinda disagree.  It's the cognitive dissonance that lives in their brains.

    Individual minorities, gay people etc. who they personally know?  Well.....Jose is a good fella, hard worker.  We aren't talking about him.  And Carol...she's a sweetheart.  We don't mean her.

    But brown people generally?  THEY'RE INVADER CRIMINALS!

    How do they reconcile these?  We've all seen it before.  If you grew up in the South over the past 50 years, there is a 100% chance you've heard someone utter the phrase "oh....but not you, Jose/Tyrese/Vinh...you're one of the good ones!"

    It's that easy.  They can be both completely and totally racist....yet compassionate and not racist as to a specific individual.  And both things are absolutely true, and match human nature.  It's easy to dehumanize a group, it's hard to dehumanize an individual who you know - it's a cousin of the "one death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic" phenomenon.

    We are filled with people who will cheerfully build death camps for "the other," then cry genuine tears when their minority friend is sent to his death there.

    You just described my MIL to a T.  She's fully on board the Trump train, but has illegals that do work at her house that she likes and has no problems with them.  The cognitive dissonance is real.

    Tulemar resort in Manuel Antonio is probably my first and only choice for your situation. A very distant 2nd choice would be Los Suenos but there isn’t nearly as much nature stuff there. I’m very hesitant to tell people with kids that young that CR is a good vacation choice.

    The beach at Tulemar is amazing for younger kids.  And there's so much wildlife on the property that you don't even need to go to the park.  Just do a sloth tour on property.

  12. Naw will be a bad contract for somebody. Someone’s gonna overpay him big time. I suppose joker could make him better but look at his game logs…one good game for every 6-10 average, bad or pisspoor games. I don’t think his defense makes up for his poor shooting

    He was a throw in the Conley/dlo deal but he is not a playoff riser. Excited to see good Shannon jr and Clark get his minutes
    I love his defense, which the Nuggets are lacking, and he can shoot the 3. That's all they would need from him. And he'd get a lot of wide open looks playing with Jok.

    But someone is going to give him way to much money, for sure.
