Well, there was a tsunami warning for west coast
Wow, the earth is really going nuts. SD earthquake at 5.6, this earthquake at 7, and the Chilean quake at over 7. The earth must look like a tuning fork right now. Jim maybe you know this, could this be secondary effects of the Indonsesian quake, basically shaking the earth so hard, that some of the other faults of the world start to give way? And also do you think we could see some more volcanic activity that could be the result of, or a contributing cause to this quake activity?

Not what I would call "heartwarming"..
QUOTE(Texsox @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 06:59 AM) Which is why the American public never allows one party too much power for very long. However introducing a third strong party would make things worse. Imagine the grid lock with a third party wanting a taste :headshake Maybe at first, but it would actually force compromise instead of one side ramming their agenda down the others throats as quick as they can like it has been for the past 80 years or so. I think it would be a great thing. It could also bring the parties back into line with reality.

16 Senators refuse to come out against lynching
I have an honest question here... Why is it that everyone is so upset that people refused to add their names to this amendment, but groups like Jesse Jackson are trying to stop things like the Emmitt Till excavation and investigation. On one hand they are saying 140 years isn't too much for an apology (which I agree with, its symbolic, but honorable), but 50 years is too much to actually do something concrete about a specific crime. I don't understand the logic here? They have a chance to actually punish someone for a horrific crime, but they aren't interested, while publisizing who didn't want their name added to a symbolic gesture. I don't get it.

The new world's fastest man
QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 03:21 PM) Any math geeks here who can tell me how fast that is in MPH? Just curious. IIRC when Michael Johnson obliterated the 200m record in 1996, it was something like 30 mph, but I am not positive.

Pepsi 2-for-1 Question
QUOTE(Paco @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 02:41 PM) Hey, We have 3 people going to the Sox game tonight.....Since it's Pepsi 2-for-1, is that essentially half price? Or do we have to claim an even number of tickets per Pepsi can? Its 2-1 so you either get 2 or 4 if you want the discounts.

Questions for Dave Wilder
How do you balance signability, cost, and player potential when deciding who to draft with your top picks? Also do you think not having any supplemental or 2nd round picks will help you in signing difficult signs such as Jordan Danks? Mike Michigan City, IN

Lance Broadway signs
QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 01:25 PM) He's already logged 110+ innings this year. I'm willing to bet the Sox will be very careful with him and limit his innings pitched in fear of overworking him. And Kenny Williams has public stated this.
