  1. They say downtown would avoid public financing and the dreaded California two-thirds vote--both required if Mission Valley were to be redeveloped. The convention center needs an expansion, and the proposed stadium includes facilities for that purpose. One of the news people called it a 'convadium'. I'd prefer not to drive thirty-five miles downtown, even as enticing as season tickets in a new venue sound.
  2. Supposedly super serious stadium proposal will be announced tomorrow. The team has eyes on a site downtown next to Petco Park and cozy with the convention center ... a holy trinity of NFL, MLB, and SD ComicCon. Financing is said to include 600M from the team and the league, with the remaining ~900M from an increase in hotel tax. The mayor's office has vocally preferred the 'Mission Valley' option ... redeveloping the existing Qualcomm site ... so it's unclear if they plan to rebut or embrace the downtown proposal.
  3. Same here, except three hours every Sunday. I would sneak a copy of the Silmarillion with me into primary to escape.
  4. Easter beats Valentine's Day and Christmas because Cadbury Mini Eggs. I just discovered how well they wash down with bourbon.
  5. It means he was traveling east from California to Austin, Texas for nerd fest SXSW last week. I've always wanted to visit COTA in Austin ... Circuit of the Americas racetrack, U.S. home of F1 and MotoGP.

  7. Ray Park, Snake Eyes

  8. Could be a drop in hormones, not your ticker.
  9. Best secret ninja movie stealth-hidden inside the most underrated superhero movie of all time: G.I. Joe Retaliation.
  10. Okay, goods are secure. Got a batch of Woodford and a small carrying case with six rounds of Ballast Point Dorado--a 10% double IPA with watermelon. Pretty much ready for Easter.
  11. Jungle coast, flooded cave dungeons, pre-civilization, megafauna, megalodon boss battle ... PoE Primal
  12. Lynda Carter cameo, Supergirl, Season Two, confirmed.
  13. Bickering is boring. Waiting for the draft is exciting.
  14. Second-annual Encinitas Spock Block is here, this time with movie marathon on the 26th. http://www.encinitasadvocate.com/news/2016/mar/16/spock-block-encinitas-return/ From the inaugural:
  15. She was forced to snap Zod's neck, innocent people were in danger. I was thinking she did it to find out for sure if his father had someone killed. I enjoyed it, I like devious, untruthful Joan. Also her black skirt, white tie outfit looked really good.
  16. You keep saying that, about PoE 2, but for some reason I don't think Louisiana is P2. Not trying to argue.
  17. Maybe he had CTE. It's not unheard of to act reckless and suicidal because of it. In less-sad news, a Malcom Floyd jersey came yesterday. He just retired but I love his persona more than most. Twelve years with one team, amazing. *or, ten years I mean, had to check
  18. That's really weird, I watched The 100 for the first time last night and saw two girls make babies and also the Violent Femmes on loudspeaker. I was really surprised and gratified.
  19. Getting ready for BvS with a refresh of Nolan's run. Batman Begins played almost twice as good as last time. Can't explain it, Bale's not that awesome. *finished The Dark Knight ... the Lambo and the MV Agusta were the best parts, although Maggie G was delightful. On to The Dark Knight Rises.
  20. A dirt bike with no headlight on a street at night without a helmet ... might as well ask to die. Still sucks.
  21. phew, thought it was just me. Spent the last seven hours re-installing Windows.

  23. Went back to Legends of Tomorrow, boom, White Canary could take Black Widow. So much good hand-to-hand heel-to-face combat. Great!
  24. One more with Alan, looking forward to it a lot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoBk3e9fFPU
