I think he meant the razor-like crust ... although I have used a finger to massage bleeding flesh after a panini.

darnit

That is awful. National TV news just told me local authorities are investigating a prior connection and possible first-degree murder.

Do a Light Side Guardian with Two-Weapon Fighting feat and then Prestige Class into a Jedi Weapon Master. BOOM After that playthrough, do a Dark Side Consular, Prestige Class Sith Lord. No enemy can withstand Force Storm. DOOM

I'd say it was more an epic stumble. A true meltdown was Rory in 2011 going triple, bogey, double, bogey, on the back nine on Sunday, dropping from first to 15th. Jordan, at least, birdied again and finished second.

T: VII, VII W: VII, IV, V Th: VI, VII F: VII, VII S: VII Am taking a break Sunday, tomorrow, mainly to witness Jordan Spieth complete only the fourth back-to-back win in Masters' history, first-ever consecutive wire-to-wire outright lead at Augusta. Or not ... the golf gods are fickle. Then I'll watch VII again. The only thing more expressive in the history of film besides the face of Daisy Ridley, is her voice.

I don't even need that AM antenna, my TV picks up the Mighty 1090 radio signal. Been a great season so far, Padres set a franchise record for an opening day loss, and a major league record three-straight shutouts to start the year. I'll stick with it, though. I love the new yellow jersey accents.

Pumped for Augusta this weekend ... the Super Bowl of golf, but prettier, more exciting, fewer commercials, eighteen yellow flags and zero unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.

Sent a text reply to my brother with my Kenobi theory and he was all, 'that's been a thing since last year'. All the wind went out of my sail, and then he adds, 'Supreme Leader Snoke is nothing less than Darth Vader, still alive, twice unrepentant'. I'm not smart or intuitive, so I cried a little and then replied, 'no way, that would wipe out the entire drama of Episode VI, render Sebastian Shaw's poignant performance pointless, and entirely undermine Anakin Skywalker's redemption'. He said, you can't argue with the grandson of Vader vs. the granddaughter of Obi-Wan.

Subconsciously see the word 'bash' and equate with sarcasm, maybe. But no, no sarcasm, I just have a thing for perplexing females proficient in hand-to-hand. Watched Episodes IV and V, sleuthing for a connection between Ben Kenobi and Rey. If Obi-Wan does speak her name in VII, it must be audio magic. I'll watch VI here in a minute and see what I can hear. More interesting, the same unique, empty passageway structure seen in the Luke/Vader battle on Bespin, appears in Rey's dream sequence, where it collapses. Kind of an oddly specific thing to recreate. Luke loses his hand and his lightsaber in that scene--the same lightsaber which triggers Rey's Force vision. Am I reading too much into it, yes, but it's fun.

Baton-bashing bad girl Rebel with ninja training on the brink of redemption or falling to the Dark Side ... *faints*

Might have been wrong, Rey may not be sister to Ren ... Han and Leia don't react as they should if she were. More telling, the inflection in the voice of Obi-wan speaking her name during the dream sequence in Episode VII. If it is him, how they recorded Alec Guinness is a mystery I'm willing to watch previous Episodes to uncover, but, for the moment I'm intrigued with the possibility Rey is a Kenobi.

Yeah, Colonel Klink put on a clinic, retiring thirteen straight, or some such. Nine K's in seven I's ... 0.00 ERA ... whatever that means. Game 2 starts in half an hour, not that anyone cares. But they do.

Pretty awesome deal at GameStop. Get a new XB1 for $199 with 360/PS3 trade-in. Or trade-in your existing PS4 or XB1 for $200 credit toward a new PS4 or XB1. Which means that snazzy all-white Quantum Break Xbox One bundle would only be $99, if I hand over my black one. Minus the cost of the game on its own ... sorta equals forty bucks for a new console. Which would be great, I love the white controller, but, it's Xbox.

I just found the AM antenna for my A/V receiver still in the plastic. Home opener vs. LA starts in half an hour. RADIO

Ouch, okay, I'm not sure. Assuming you did the power pylon thing for Fassa as well as the transponder codes for Fassa's Freighters ... What about Vogga's Dancers and Vogga's Hoard ... did you talk to Domo in the Cantina with a female party character. And did you stealth next to those two thugs in the flophouse (by Fassa) to overhear their plan to break into Vogga's vault.

I would agree, but, since the time that post was made, true automatic transmissions seem to have disappeared. Euphemisms such as continuous paddle-shifting, handle-bumping, and knob-thwacking have replaced the one-time action of pulling a button grip into Drive and forgetting about it until you get where you're going. I'll never not prefer a gated manual, but there are a lot surrogates that don't make you feel like you've gone crazy and bought a cherry Buick Grand National.

I don't know about that, but Henry Rollins has a better Punisher scowl than any Punisher ever drawn.

I can feel it coming. Tuesday, my mailbox, Episode VII. Four months is a pittance compared to waiting three years before Jedi was released on VHS.

Have you gone back to Citadel Station and told Lieutenant Dol Grenn about the fuel situation ...

There were like 11 people in the theater on Thursday. Mostly adults, one kid two rows behind ... neither of us could keep it together there at the end.
