  1. People who live together before getting married have a higher divorce rate than those who don't.
  2. Look at the bright side: many of you in the Chicago area may get taken out by a tornado before being subjected to the finish of this game.
  3. Every generation is more selfish than the last, and selfish just doesn't go well with marriage.
  4. I had a "friend" in college who asked me to be in his wedding. His father was a lawyer, his fiancee's father was a doctor, and they were spending about $25K on the wedding (and this was back in 1993). Tux rental was going to be $120. I was a grad student and told him there was no way I could afford that on top of the cost of traveling to the wedding. He found someone else to be in the wedding who could afford the tux.
  5. Went to a new breakfast place that had a menu section called 'Lighter Fair.' I asked for a Tilt-a-Whirl with a side of balloon darts.
  6. You will be drunk, have beer goggles, and the obnoxious girl won't be able to talk if something is stuffed in her mouth.
  7. I didn't know there was a law that stated that the opening day lineup had to remain in tact for a certain number of games before a different lineup could be used.
  8. Not entirely. They left ND completely out of the Top 25.
  9. What I WOULD do: Eaton 8 Melky 7 Abreu 3 Garcia 9 Alexei 6 LaRoche DH Bonifacio 5 Flowers/Soto 2 Johnson 4 What I think Robin WILL do: Eaton 8 Melky 7 Abreu 3 LaRoche DH Garcia 9 Alexei 6 Bonifacio 5 Flowers/Soto 2 Johnson 4
  10. I got a Roku for Christmas, so I decided to fork over the dough for MLBEI this year.
  11. I spent a week in Stockton once. If that's where I have to go to find affordable housing in California, I'd rather just die.
  12. Had ND at #13, and that's hard for me to see losing Grant and Connaughton.
  13. I had to hear the "refs robbed us" complaints all day yesterday on the radio from Kentucky fans. Notre Dame didn't lose to Kentucky because of the refs. Kentucky didn't lose to Wisconsin because of the refs. Wisconsin didn't lose to Duke because of the refs. And this is from somebody who is very disheartened to see the championship won by a team that Notre Dame beat twice, the last time very convincingly in the ACC tournament.
  14. This is slightly off-track, but germane to this discussion. I've always thought Cook County should be split into three parts. One would be the city of Chicago, that would have a single unified city-county government, a la Indianapolis and Louisville. The other two counties would have a dividing line roughly along the Ike. The third largest city in the nation, already with a mayor and 50 aldermen, doesn't need a county government on top of that.
  15. Getting France to do anything is a pretty effective job.
  16. mlb.tv has added a Roku option for 2015, so I have made my purchase and will be watching the game!
  17. Affirmative action at its finest.
