Anyone try an energy drink named Cocaine?
Bad, dont do it. I did not like it at all. And from what I've seen happen to some of my friends liking cocaine is a bigger reason never to do it than actually liking it. Bad drug, drop acid or something instead.

Jefferson Airplane and Nirvana dont even touch The Replacements. Let It Be is my boring choice for their best album, Androgynous and Unsatisfied are amazing songs.

I dont think it really matters how many terrorists we lock up/kill/whatever. It's no use trying to eradicate them, just try to get out of their crosshairs.- Obama Removing Prisoners from Gitmo
You've been hanging out with some pretty bad people if you're at Gitmo.- Obama Removing Prisoners from Gitmo
Guantanamo Bay is still US held territory.- Obama Removing Prisoners from Gitmo
Well they cant do that. We try them and one of two things happen. If a detainee is found guilty they execute them, pretty simple. If a detainee probably guilty but we can't build a strong case just let them back out to hang out with their old terrorist pals. Something tells me being in a US detention center for a few years is cause enough for a detainee to be killed there too. I have a hard time imagining too many innocent people at Gitmo, but there are human rights violations going on there and it looks really bad.- Obama Removing Prisoners from Gitmo
They're dead no matter what happens to them.- Alexei on move to SS, Viciedo...
The Yankees want him, we dont stand a chance.- Obama Removing Prisoners from Gitmo

Compare Zambrano, Hamels and Danks statistically and you would eliminate Zambrano from the discussion fairly early on. Danks and Hamels are pretty much equal: Hamels K's more batters but gives up twice the HR's, they both give up the same amount of walks and their ERA's are nearly the same in relation to the league they play in.- Duke's Top 50
Danks gets major bonus points for doing as well as he did in the AL.- Duke's Top 50
Jermaine Dye has hit more HR's than any other OF in the AL over the past 3 years. That's really good.- Duke's Top 50
