The problem would be a lot less of a problem if we just had reasonable prices for medical care instead of $8,000 ambulance rides.

I always thought it was more like "bad behavior is being rewarded so we are going to misbehave until people decide to right this wrong". I mean SJW have been getting their way with their whining, is it really so surprising that others have followed their example? So do you feel that with Trump winning the election, those others will set aside their misbehavior and become champions of moderation and reason?

No surprise, all these alt-right folks are just as sensitive as the SJW types they claim to be against. "I hate the way these people act, so I'm going to act just like them!"

What leveling or class system do you like most?

Watched The Accountant with the wife, it was excellent. Favorite moment was his awkward wave to the farmer couple after he saved them. Ben Affleck nailed the performance, but don't forget this is a guy who has gotten thrown out of casinos in real life for counting cards. This was in his wheelhouse.

I enjoy it when I scroll down for a Steam review and I find one of you guys at the top of my list as the reviewer. That's typically my best source of information.

I've got Episode 9 up, we talk about our recent trip to 21st Amendment and the positives of canned beer.

I was in bed around 10, although I did wake up at midnight to comfort the dog during the fireworks. I'm not a big New Year's party or resolution guy. Mostly because I'm terrible at staying up late.

FFXV is just charming the heck out of me. I'm really bonding with these people, and riding a chocobo makes me grin like a madman.

Today turned out better than I expected. Me and my small posse rolled out to a brewery for an official tour and asked a ton of questions, and I ended up with pages of notes for the podcast and blog. The taproom manager comped our drinks. Then we went to another brewery down the road and got talking about the podcast again. The guy who runs their tours and education came over and chatted us up, turns out he has a Masters in Beer History and has written a thesis. He had us try a bunch of beers and I geeked out with him, and scheduled another visit in a few months. I'll be writing all this up for my website, but I needed to let someone know how crazy my day was.

Considering the turnout for the two candidates versus what he pulled in 2012, I'm inclined to agree. edit: And of course thankful that we have term limits.

I probably should have added a smiley to my Polar Express comment. Yes, that was a creepy use of CGI. After watching that I was more forgiving of Disney's efforts in Rogue One.

I was kind of excited to see Moff Tarkin. They barely develop his character in episode 4, and I read his book (one of the few SW books I've read) so it made me happy to see him get some screen time. It wasn't any worse than CGI Tom Hanks in Polar Express.

That is an ire provoking pun.

Episode 8 is up: https://historyofhops.com/podcast/history-hops-episode-8-drakes-brewing I also ordered business cards for our upcoming field trip to 21st Amendment Brewery, and I'm busy trying to come up with good questions.

That is wrong, plenty of states will still send you to jail for possession. It has been changing slowly, but right now only 20 states have decriminalized possession. http://www.drugpolicy.org/drug-war-statistics Number of arrests in 2015 in the U.S. for drug law violations: 1,488,707 Number of these arrests that were for possession only: 1,249,025 (84 percent)Just because you get arrested doesn't mean you're going to prison. Most of the cases in our courts are for marijuana possession, but they normally get community service, may be rehab, but not prison. You said jail, not prison. I agree that most people sent away for any length of time typically needs more than just a possession charge. But getting arrested and going through the court system typically is going to involve some time in a jail, particularly for those unable to pay for bail.

My backyard was getting pretty overgrown, so the neighbor brought over a couple goats. They are fun to watch. The dog is having a blast trying to live out his herding fantasies, although he has learned to keep his distance from the one with horns.

Very sad, another very young one.

I went with something pretty simple. I got a car magnet too.

I need to come up with a decent logo for my History of Hops podcast so I can make business cards. I'm thinking about an open book with a hop vine around it, or something. Or maybe a tap pouring knowledge, although that may be out of me abilities as an artist. Actually I have no abilities as an artist. Hrm.

Well I'm loving it. They've nailed the charms of the Final Fantasy series. Rolling down the road in my Regalia, listening to the theme from Final Fantasy V is sublime. I do recommend you watch the Kingsglaive movie, it has added to the experience quite a bit. Yeah my friend gonna let me borrow his movie here in a day or so. Should I watch the movie before I play? That sounds awesome, I've been an avid FF fan since the first one on the nes. **** it's thanks to FF1 and Dragon Warrior on the nes that I've gotten into RPGs in the first place lol. Sigh, trying to tell people those are RPGs now a days is like hitting a brick wall. Now a days, if u can't customize ur character or have options in how to do quests/dialogue it's not considered an RPG lol. Sadly I can somewhat agree with them, but that's all I had back then. No regrets You don't need to watch the movie first, but it does make the transition from Chapter 1 to Chapter 2 smoother.
