I'm fine with the incidental contact but he walked.

It's no wonder we can't get any free throws. Mark was hacked. Kent was hacked. It's ridiculous.

I thought that movie sucked and completely missed the point of its own plot. I only watched once so maybe I need a rewatch but I remember feeling like the movie made a hero out of a terrible man and, despite the story of the movie, managed to marginalize its female lead.
Anyways, watched the conversation and rear window the last couple days. Both nearly flawless movies.
I think the point of the movie was to show the perspective of each of the three involved. The husband, the accused rapist, and the wife/alleged victim. It was based on an actual historical event and from my understanding the perspectives shown were based on the testimony of each and how it lead to the last trial by combat recorded in history because of the he said/he said/she said thing.

This is 5000% true. America has a horrible tradition of racism. Absolutely horrible. But what is OK to say in polite company in parts of Europe would never fly in the US. Central and south americans can imigrate to Spain pretty easily, so there are lots of Argentenians, Venzuelans, Brazilians, etc. here. They get tons of shit and for the most part hate Spainards.
Doesn't everyone?

Watched Gardens of Stone for the first time in a while and forgot what a good movie it was. As someone who served in the Army a few years later, the technical advisers on this movie did a great job. The army stuff is really good. Very underrated movie IMO. A good look at how Vietnam divided the army in much the same way as the rest of the country, but mainly just some excellent performances from James Caan, James Earl Jones, etc.

So I guess that wasn't goal tending?

I would have I'd Bruce up on that just because.

Then dumbfuck has to foul with 1 second left as if the loss wasn't embarrassing enough.

But let's get real. You believed the "I am from the government and I am here to help" bullshit/lie and ran with it. The military, police, roads, sewage, vaccines, education, treaties, building codes, firemen, GPS you use to not get lost, road signs, stop signs, stop lights, zoning so you don't live next to a chemical plant and drink polluted water, that is all from the fucking government you deride while enjoying the benefits of.
It was the oil industry who turned to the government to ask for regulations to prevent another spindletop situation. It was the public who cried out for food safety after they read Sinclair's The Jungle. You deride the education that allowed you to hire or paid for the person who hired and mentored you. You likely claim to be a self-made man, while ignoring the society that nurtured your development and cared for you.
Just quoting this one as being on topic for the topic, not particularly responding to this, but it's also relevant.
My Dad worked his way up from Accountant I to Director of Accounting at Texas Health and Human Services Dept. In the 30 years he worked there the state shifted from Dem run to Rep run. Once the Reps came in, every few years they'd try to bring in a private contractor to, allegedly, make things more efficient. None of them lasted very long because they didn't understand the scope of work and inevitably under bid the project because they didn't realize that most of the inefficiencies were written in the law and, thus, couldn't just be streamlined.
Each time they would come to him and say "Why do we have to do it this way?" Every single time the answer was "Because the legislature made this law because some private company found a loophole in the law and corn holed the tax payers out of millions of dollars."
Do you know why it takes three forms and three levels of approval to buy a pencil? Because, some outside business found a hole the rules so that they could charge $5 for a $ .20 pencil and bilked the state for millions before it was discovered.
They also didn't grasp the size of the budget or the services they would be required to provide, and thus were incredibly understaffed and inefficient because they thought providing hundreds of thousands of people services costing billions of dollars would be easy if they could just get their MBA asses on the job and find all the alleged bloat. Then they found out there wasn't nearly as much bloat as they thought. In fact, considering what they provided, it's a miracle they can do it with what they have.

Madi channeling Scott Sterling had me losing it over here.

Agreed. Shed has too many mental lapses. It's like he's a step slow and it's not physical he just doesn't seem to be an instinctual player and it hinders the pick and roll we run fairly well because he just doesn't seem to grasp the timing.

A classic example is the hands to the face call. They couldn't see the holding next to it, but they saw that. Ironically if you look at one of the ones where they called holding on us, in the frame is a Georgia guy with his hand up under, I think, Goolsby's facemask just like that. Somehow they didn't see that one.

Finally got around to showing the 11 y/o the Three Amigos and I swear I've never heard him laugh as much during a movie, maybe in any 100 minute window of his life, than that movie. I've seen it a billion times but to see him watch it for the first time ever was incredible.
He wants to teach the 5 year old the amigo salute.
He wanted to run it back tonight and watch another comedy similar to that, any ideas on what I could introduce him to? We watched Bill and Ted, which he liked but figured there gotta be other options. Mentioned earlier he is a huge horror fan but not sure if there are "age appropriate comedies" for him before I turn him loose on the Porkys, Hardbodies, revenge of the nerds movies.
Maybe Big Trouble in Little China?

Voted Thursday with my wife, sister-in-law, and my three daughters. No pics. Youngest was voting for the first time. We made a big deal of it. No wait at all. Got there at just the right time because when we left the line was forming. The womenfolk were fired up to vote.

Also, how did he put the poster up from the inside of the hole?
Just in case this is serious, the poster was only attached at the top so he could slip under it.
