  1. I thought I was in major trouble this afternoon. The dogs were outside and one of the damned coyotes appeared in my yard in broad daylight. I thought there was going to to be a major dog fight but they just stared and sniffed at each other. The moment I got up to get my shotgun the coyote took off. Pretty smart, I wasn't going to shoot him but he didn't know that.

  2. There must be a sick little boy somewhere praying for the Twins to win it all. Because only divine intervention can explain that Tigers total collaps on Saturday night. So it's on now. On Tuesday, one game playoff between the Tigers and the Twins. I will be parked in front of my TV with beer in hand!

  3. Detroit at Chicago - Can the Lions go two in a row? No. Bears win

    Cincinnati at Cleveland - As Enoch put it, Browns are a mess. Bengals win

    Seattle at Indianapolis - Hard to bet against Indy this year. Colts win

    NY Giants at Kansas City - KC is giving up over 350 yds per game and now the Giants are in town. Uh-oh. Giants win

    Baltimore at New England - I will defiitely be watching this one. Ravens win

    Tampa Bay at Washington - Bucs are depserate but Washington will be mad after last weekend. Redskins win

    Tennessee at Jacksonville - Both of these teams are disappointing this year. Jags win

    Oakland at Houston - I think last week was a fluke and the Texans are pretty good. Texans win

    NY Jets at New Orleans - I've picked against the Jets every week and they have burned me evey week. Here's to persitience! Saints.

    Buffalo at Miami - Dolphins finally get the W and Henne has a big start. Dolphins win.

    St. Louis at San Francisco - The Rams are on the clock. 49ers win

    Dallas at Denver - Barber is back this week but there is no D in Dallas right now. Broncos win

    San Diego at Pittsburgh - Steelers rebound with a win. Steelers win.

    Green Bay at Minnesota - I wish this game was in Green Bay. Vikings win.

  4. Looks like the playoff picture is pretty well set. The only Drama remaining is if the Tigers will clinch before the weekend and if the Rocks can overtake the Dodgers. Also the Cars have just a two game edge on the Phils for top seed.

  5. Good point. Anyone remember that collector who went into the British library and defaced rare books so his own copies would be even rarer? What a douche.
    I shouldn't be surprised, but I am. Jaw=dropped.

     

     

    I know what you mean. Rich bloke, too. It's not like he needed them to be worth more.

    Hmm, a rich person doing something needless and destructive to make himself slightly richer? Surely this is an unheard of phenomena. *nods sagely*

    You are a one trick pony aren't you?

  6. I watch The First 48 on A&E all the time and I am always amazed at how real police work compared to CSI, Law and Order, etc. My biggest running laugh is the pastel clad faries on CSI Miami who only seem to have murder victims on South Beach, Key Biscayne, Sunny Isles, Adventura and the othe ritzy parts of town. I'd like to see them in "real" Miami. Like Overtown, Liberty City, Pork and Beans, or Little Haiti. It would be funny.

  7. Sorry Sluggo but dried and powdered coyote pee doesn't sound like a good investment to me. =]

     

    I've got the shotgun loaded and sitting by the loft window. The screens already out. If they come calling tonight I'll be ready. I might try to get a few more pics first.

  8. If you pump a 13 year old girl full of drugs and have sex with her it's rape no matter what. If he thought it was all right he would not have fled. I really cannot believe anyone would be defending him. I'd put this greasebag in Folsom or San Quentin and promise one of the big queens there a carton of Marlboros a week to take a special interest in him. He deserves to find out what rape is all about.

  9. It's important not to fall too far behind. If you get 8-10 games behind everyone you end up looking for the upsets every week just to gain ground on everyone. Thats why it's better to play safe in the first few weeks. Hard to argue with Volo's start though.

  10. The Rocks and Giants keep losing and now we have a real race with a suddenly resurgent Atlanta club. By the way, nice job Fish losing 2 of 3 to the Mets at home. Oh and great job Leo Nunez for walking the bases loaded and then walking in the tying run after going into the 9th with a 1 run lead. Then giving up the game winning single. Hard to top that outing. Ironic actually, the Fish knocked the Mets out of contention last year, this year they did it to us.

     

    Rays may not finish above .500. What a disappointment.

     

    Keep ypur eye on the AL Central, Tigers and Twins are going down to the wire.

  11. Did anyone else catch the Tampa game? How about this, not a single first down for the Bucs through the first three quarters. When the offense finally moved the ball it was in the 4th quarter and the Giants were pretty indifferent about it. It isn't just bad.... it's beyond belief. And then when Morris decided to make a change a QB instead of putting in our "QB of the future" he puts in professional washout Josh Johnson, the only player I can think of to be cut twice in one preseason. Eighty six miserable stinking yards of offense was all they could come up with, and fifty seven of that was on one drive in the last five minutes. They gave up more yardage in penalites than they gained in offense if you take that one drive away. And the tackling....ugh. It's like thses guys have never played football before.

     

    Its not just losing... it's losing ugly. It's losing undiciplined. It's the blown assignments, the penalties, the bad tackling, the dropped passes, it's playcalling that makes no sense. Why in the world you try to run off tackle on 3rd and 8 when you are losing the line of scrimmage on every snap. It's too early to call Raheem Morris a failure but it starting to look that way.

  12. ^ You still have to wonder why NASA, the astronauts, and with the Apollo missions that they didn't declare there's water on the moon sooner. Like 30-40 years ago.

    The majority of water evidence (to be fair, what has been found in not water as we have it here but hydroxl) located in any abundance has been near the lunar poles. The Apollo landing sites are all near the lunar equator. The one mission that brought back the most samples bearing the greatest amount of evidence of water was Apollo 15 which landed at Descartes and was the northernmost landing. The fact that the Descartes samples contained evidence of past water is what fueled the then commonly believed theory that the moon was created from ejecta from the earth following an impact or volcanic event. It wan't until the orbiter Clementine photographed the poles back in the 80s that the beleif arose that there might be large amounts of water. Since then US, ES, Chinese, and now Indian probes have all gathered supporting evidence.

  13. My parents told me tritium was fictional and only existed in Spider-Man 2.

     

    :p No it's real. The chemical symbol is H3. It's been a long time since my last chemistry class but I think it can only exist as a solid at extreme low temps and it is very unstable in any other form.

    Would't H3 refer to a molecule with 3 H atoms in it, instead of an isotope with a couple extra neutrons in it (which is what tritium is)? I thought 3H was the normal notation (with the 3 superscripted).

    You're right, I wrtoe it backwards...

  14. personally, i miss the days of two divisions, one playoff for the pennant.

     

    taks

    I actually disagree with you on that one. I think the wildcards have been a real boon to the sport. If I were to get rid of anything is would be the DH.

     

     

    On that note, what does everyone think of the DH? If you like baseball you gotta have an opinion on that one.

     

    Epic win by the fish last night, victimizing Lidge yet again. Lidge had blown five saves vs the fish this year.
