QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 12:37 PM) Hmmm, being in the line of work that is effected by speeding in construction zones...how do I react to this... Saturday 6:30 PM, no barricades, no workers, one sign in a merge area. I would never knowingly speed in a construction zone.

Speeding in a construction zone. I wonder if I bring my laptop if I can post from jail? Do they have broadband? I need to pay the fine, but first I need to negoatiate. My understanding is, I would need to get pulled over for something else for anything to happen, but still, I think today would be a great day to take care of this.

Nothing like opening the mail to Oops. And it was dated on my birthday. That was such a great day for me. Off to see the Judge.

Guys don't make the All-Star game by accident, especially when there already where players from your team choosen. I've understood some of the anti this or that player rants, but anti-Kong stuff has me baffled. I can't wait for the months of get rid of him and use the money to plug holes comments. And great point ChiSoxfn, PK in the 5th spot would be great. The bat we may have for #4 is good old #35. I'm hoping for that. Gooch, Frank, PK in the 3-4-5 may be the best we can hope for in the off season. At the minimum, it should be the minimum.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WILD f***ING ANIMALS DO: ATTACK s***! AND IF YOU ARE THE s*** THEY ARE ATTACKING DON'T EXPECT ANY PITY FROM ME!!!!! you are soooooo cool when you rant I thought George Carlin or Dennis Miller joined. And BTW, you are so correct it is amazing that it must be said. One thing that does amaze me, with the notoriously short Hollywood, entertainment, marriages, these two have been together a very long time. To work together, and then these past two years, these two must really love each other.

In re-reading some of these posts, I remember one unique thing here. Most of my neighbors are 1st or 2nd generation, Americans. Many have dual citizenship, some are Mexican citizens. Whether in English or Spanish, the sentiments where the same. Disbelief, shock, anger, it was all there. Even our visitors, those vacationing in the US from Mexico, felt it was an attack on us, not an attack on the US. Then on Saturday, a section of the Queen Isabella Causeway (bridge) to South Padres Island collapsed, killing several drivers who drove off the end of the bridge into the water below. It happen around 2:00 am so many of us awoke to that news. Same wondered if it was another terrorist attack. I remember thinking to myself in a Bin Laden voice, OK we attack and take down the World Trade Center, The Pentagon, the Capital, then the bridge on South Padres Island To me it was so obviously the Captain of the Exxon Valdez back as a barge Captain and making a navigational blunder but to many people down here, the possibility of terrorism was that real. BTW, it was a barge accident.

UT- Austin First ND second Any Big 10 after that.

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 10:11 PM) What matters more right now, respecting el duque or winning games? It's about respecting all the players. How Oz handles el duque is how the rest of the team would expect to be treated. Esprit de corps and all that jazz.

Imagine that surprise to find out Shil is your roomie. I wonder how many could live at Crawford Ranch?

Please take your drunken 15 year old girlfriend home

QUOTE(qwerty @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 07:57 PM) What critics have to say about movies in general does not effect how i feel about a movie going into it. I go into all movies with an open mind. I have looked back on a whole bunch of movies on rottentomatoes.com and those critics are unbelievable when it comes to some very good movies. What effect would you say the atmosphere inside the theater has? Watching with 20 other people scattered around the theater vs. the excited buzz of a full house? BTW, great avatar.

QUOTE(winodj @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 08:25 PM) But he just seemed pissed to leave Texas. Anybody would be. As a Bush sometimes basher, I fell like coming to his defense. IMHO the information he was working with was wrong. I still cannot believe, if the information was accurate, he would have acted and scheduled his time the way he did. That just is not the person I believe him to be. I expected to see America, from Bush on down, in our finest hour of humanitarian aid. I really expected much, much, more. Switching gears, Rush has become a very wealthy man by being the GOPerheads bully ringleader. The blind loyalty they show him is scary. I know someone who will argue forever that Rush has never been wrong!?

IIRC, he batted third in Japan.

I should have added ourselves as an option. Plus, while never the number 1 factor, I think word of mouth, critics, and the buzz, has a much bigger impact then we realize. Going into a movie with the right attitude has a huge effect on how much you like it.

I thought I would share

I was just looking at Greg Maddux's career and Wow. I don't pay that much attention to the NL, and basically only laughed that he left the Cubs and they got nothing in return. I guess I knew that 300 wins is obviously a big deal, but I didn't realize how many complete games he was pitching, etc.
