Rogue Waves
I was surprised by the number of container ships that go down each year.

Mariotti Google Bomb
I'm embarrased by this. I feel like Sox fans turn into whining children at Marriotti's name. Mommy! Jay's calling me names , make him stop! Ignoring him is the only way to make him go away. When people stop talking about him, stop reading his stuff, then those people who do not like his work, will win. Until then mommy! Jay is doing it again, is just whining.

A failure of imagination
We can say this about a lot of things. And my other point in this whole thread is Rush, Hannity, and O'Reilly's shows are pure propagandist Bull s***, which is my conclusion after listening... (whereas before it was the media telling me, now I read this for myself and say "bull s***".)

Loaiza
Elo wins go down, MB wins go up, even from last year. We needed to replace Colon and we did (finally). Garland has improved from last season. We are starting to get some help from the #5 spot. All in all, I think we are ahead of last season in the starting rotation. I'd like to have kept Flash. I think our bullpen is down a bit for long relief and set up, better at closer. You can never have too much pitching, but there are not many staffs I would trade lock, stock, and barrel for. (whatever the hell that means, and I'll bet someone here knows)

Is Shingo Rookie of the year
I believe the rules need to be changed. Shingo is far from a Rookie in my eyes. Having said that, the current rules allow it, and he should be receiving consideration.

It is so much easier for us to accept free speech when the person is saying things we agree with. I do not agree with him, but accept his position and am glad that he can do that. That same behavior would have gotten him kicked off the Iraqi team. BTW, I admire your ability to communicate in English. I get so frustrated when I need to communicate in espanol, knowing I come off as an uneducated, 4th grade drop out.

A failure of imagination
How anyone can logically think that the entire US population isn't somehow to blame surprises me. The US has never prepared for something of this magnitude. Adminstrations dating back 15-20 years can be blamed. Some people like to point out how Clinton would conduct poll after poll and do whatever would make him popular, or what the citizens want. Do you think we we held hands and sung God Bless America after the Cole and other attacks that he wouldn't have welcomed the opportunity to start a war? We've been transfering power for hundreds of years, if Bush couldn't put together a team in 9 months then he's even worse than some Dems believe. We, as citizens, are the government. We, as citizens, are the country. We, as citizens, are equally to blame.

Remind me, when do the Twins go away?
s***, they just keep rolling along. I feel a little better when I compare schedules, but this could be a fight all the way.

Iowa is great for these types of events. I rasn several roadraces in Des Moines and a couple other cities and loved them every time.

Moronotti on Around the Horn
This is so f***ing predictable. Once a week we have a thread Jay said ______________________, what an asshole. He praises the Sox, he's an asshole. He rips the drunks, he's an asshole. :headshake

A failure of imagination
I don't see how Bin Laden needed state sponsored help. He didn't use any complicated or advanced weaponry to take over the planes, he didn't hack into any intelligence agencies to get his men on the planes. He even used US flight schools to train his "pilots". He placed a couple dozen men in the US. Paid for their flight schools, bought box cutters at Ace Hardware, bought plane tickets, and pissed off a nation. What makes it so terrifying is how simple and cheap it really was.

The truth about your water
Or in South Texas. Down here there are three options. Install a whole house Reverse Osmosis filter, have water delivered, or fill them yourself at several different vendors. Basically water filter kiosks. I have a home water cooler for cooking and drinking water. This past week, in the Davis Mountains of West Texas, I drank directly from a spring, at the exact point it bubbled from the ground. It is the finest, best tasting water in the universe.
