  1. Certainly possible it's ExDS but other than his shirt being off (and that's assuming he took it off) I dont see it. That dude seemed way too coherent I saw him complaining of loss of breath and a stomach ache. Did he say he was burning up? Admittedly I've only seen ExDS in person once, but it sure as hell didn't look like that. Minneapolis PD is trained on ExDS too BTW.
  2. Switching to this thread from the other... This is what I wrote there: This one really makes me sick. Zero reason to have your knee on his neck, and zero reason not to have at least moved that man into a recovery position. There's a long held quip in law enforcement and corrections that "if you can talk, you can breathe." It's an absurd statement that completely dismisses the reality of positional asphyxia. This officer was trained to avoid the neck. He was trained on the potential causes of Custody Death Syndrome (which it certainly was) and Positional Asphyxia (which we'll probably learn is the specific cause). The truth is that the officers knew and didn't care. I'm usually quick to stipulate that there's more to the story, but the 4 seconds I that I stomached was enough.

  4. This one hits me more than most. RIP Kenny, you did change the world with your little songs- at least mine. Soundtrack of my early childhood.
  5. This moves like a game thread! Someone asked about ventilator production before the last commercial break.... SIAP. https://www.bizjournals.com/twincities/news/2020/03/19/medtronic-boosts-ventilator-production-as.html Medtronic makes them in Ireland and is ramping up in a big way.
  6. I think Minnesota will be "shelter in place" by tomorrow morning. Just made the grocery store run and pickings were slim. Luckily I didn't need much. My sister in law got tested 3 days ago- no results yet.
  7. Pro tip: dont leave yummy treats in the pocket of your jacket.
  8. I honestly would have preferred a 60 minutes segment to this documentary.
  9. Chester just turned 1! He's a challenge, but he's going to be a great dog.
  10. Tried this. The forum title is still there, you just can't get to the content.
  11. That is exactly what happened to me with the 11 year old. I was navigating over to the "Bevoette and Jade's lol pics" thread to show her a pic and she saw the title over my shoulder and asked me about it. I really would have preferred not to have had the resulting conversation.
  12. Was afraid that my favorite beer style had gone the way of the Dodo, but enjoyed a Black IPA this week for the first time in a couple years. Unfortunately it's just a seasonal re-release, and won't be canned (brought home a growler). Midnight Ryder by Indeed. Not my pic, but this was the scene.
  13. Charlie just released a new one! What a ripper! Fun story... about 12 years ago some buddies and I, on a total whim, got in contact with Charlie and asked him if he'd play a house concert for us in South Minneapolis. In these parts, Charlie was/is too big to be playing house gigs, but he was intrigued, so he and a couple buddies came down from Duluth and jammed in our back yard for hours. Top ten night for me. Sitting on the roof of my house jamming to sweet tunes.
  14. What do you mean? That's as calm as he gets.
  15. I think you're shortchanging Minnesota there. Auburn's playing hard.
  16. Trick play? It was a play action pass. From the Wildcat, but still...
  17. For as much as they run the wildcat on goal line, that's the first pass out of it this year.
  18. Of course that hardly matters when you give up 96 yard kick off returns.
