heart in throat.

lol holy s***

get em mark

where does the sox game stream?

what happened?

I'd bet the large majority of people going to lolla actually are going for more than one band. I'd never go to a music festival either unless they had even more than 5+ bands, but I guess knowing that many bands makes you a music snob.

no it doesn't. That's why so many women and young girls try british accents and giggle to each other, because it's not funny.

if you can't hit it doesn't matter if you are a lefty or a righty. You might as well be Johnny No-Arms Malone.

Went to pitchfork yesterday. I'm really tired though.

QUOTE (Soxy @ Jul 17, 2009 -> 02:43 PM) Unrelated to actual thread topic. You think of the pace of a summer class is grueling--try prepping and teaching it. On par with waterboarding. Yeah, I'd imagine. I heard you still only get less than 75% accomplished of a normal course too, right? of summer classes I've taken, they usually bank on a lot of reading and in class, it's high participation, because 2 hours we get restless. kicked ass on the midterm btw. Chose to cover Witte's economic policies, ftw

affirmative action for racist white males

ahh, it's always funny when old people underestimate the immaturity of the American male.

Wow, didn't expect that. Oswalt looks pretty good. The one thing, it looks like the guy takes cues from Aranofsky, I'd be so annoyed if it's another "1000 cuts per minute" movie.

I find film transfers and restoration kind of fascinating.

Studying for the midterm, the pace of summer classes is absurd. Annoying enough, I thought with the limited amount of hours (2/dayx5/weekx4) would lead to us to jumping right in and covering really intensely the revolution. But, the professor lets us know every ten minutes that he attended Cambridge, is incredibly long-winded, actually uses penultimate and antepenultimate...ugh, and spent the first week going through an overview of all of Russian history. Now, the funny part, was I thought there was a method to his madness, I thought there would be tendencies of an inevitability in Russia's movement to Communism. But, besides that the nobles were used to complete autocratic control before hand in their autocracy, especially with Peter the Great, there really wasn't. I'd never realized what a highjack the Bolshevik revolution was. And so, I've always found it funny as we go through the different history levels of our education, how you realize the incredibly shallow versions of history you get as you move up can sometimes be be so limited to the point of being false. Stupid childhood myths told as important descriptive facts. Now, granted, the impression of the Soviet Union and the Oct. Revolution I'd gotten was usually framed in U.S. history, centered around World War I. So I don't know, it's just funny to me how off it was. Interesting class.

but even for Giles, you are implying that is in case CQ doesn't work out. The deadline is in like, 15 days, would you really write out CQ after that much time, enough to block him?

were the Morans protesting

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 16, 2009 -> 04:56 PM) All of this is a recent phenomenon, the last 15 years or so. Is that so? When did the names of bills change from descriptive to cutesy?

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 16, 2009 -> 11:38 AM) McCain still had more overall votes. Yes, but, with your map logic, the all-star game was in St. Louis, which was blue as a baby's eyes. The reason it was so close and why he won the primary vs. hill dawg was his support in STL, KC and Columbia/Jeff C, three highest populated areas

so final thoughts, any boos were probably political, b/c from my experience, most people in STL don't understand that the white sox exist, let alone the fact that they have a weird self absorption with their city and team. When I say i'm from Chicago, they immediately start talking s***, and then i say I'm not a cubs fan, they ask what team, I say white sox, they say "do they hate the cardinals too" and I say we don't give a s*** about the cardinals or most every NL team, they can't comprehend speaking of anything else except St. Louis or the Cardinals or Budweiser, and the conversation quickly ends. Rinse and Repeat.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 16, 2009 -> 04:14 PM) As a general rule, I hate to see more roadless areas cut into. However, in a multi-million acre roadless area, they are cutting 381 acres. Not exactly a gigantic impact. Logging is still necessary, and Vilsack is reviewing these applications carefully. This I am sure included looking at impact on the ecosystem. I can live with this. One note though, a lot of people don't know this... most of the time, logging done on USFS property is actually done at a loss, and the government picks up the tab. So we're actually paying taxpayer dollars for this logging to occur. Not a good thing, and makes me wonder if it makes more sense to actually sell these small parcels to the timber companies, to generate a little revenue instead. Or heck, do a trading system, where they get the 381 new acres to cut under expectations to re-develop it, in exchange for the USFS taking back lands they had re-developed years back that are now healthier forests. Its like recycling. Yes, not USFS, but state forests, in missouri with that effin no burn policy, logging is needed to help prevent overcrowding and create healthier forests. Not sure of the case with this forest though, just .02

well, I mean when they pump so much money into a drug that might not get past stage IV, it makes sense to give them time to recoup. Effects the consumer, though.

let alone if you did the red/blue voting by county of Illinois, it would be a "red" state. That said, mid-missouri is backwards as f***
