It was probably not aired because no one really cares about gamergate or video game misogyny.

Well I did a test run with my 5-year old and we watched the trailer together. He talked the whole time, so he's out for at least my first time seeing it. He kept saying "Those guys fight rough!"

Heh, probably a charter school.

At least Jim Webb got Alec Baldwin as his impersonator for SNL. That's a pretty good pull.

I don't know, kinda looks like the Angry Birds Star Wars mask.

I'm at day 54 in Dead State. I've rescued pretty much everyone, and I think I've delivered blows to the Coyotes, the Militia, and the Mercenaries. I've got a lot of supplies now, so I think I'll just kick back and relax for a few weeks.

Says the guy that played, what, the prologue? I think you give him too much credit.

Great Scott!

Oddly enough, I watched episode III a few weeks ago. My son had tuned out by then, he was just running around having lightsaber duels with our dog. But my daughter, who is 8, was following it closely. Still, she didn't really get that Anakin was going to kill the kids. She assumed he was there to protect them. I wasn't going to spoil that one for her. She had watched him be the good guy through Episode II and most of III, so it was not an easy transition for her, even knowing he becomes Darth Vader.

Well I'm pretty stoked. I'm wondering if my 5-year old can handle it. He did great with Avengers 2, but this might be too dark.

I feel like Marino was more consistent than Rivers, but it's been a long time so it could be reminiscence.

Heh, all the farmers I know have degrees from fairly prestigious Ag colleges.

Excited about more campaign stuff, hoping they get the home base option.

That is terrifying. I may not sleep tonight.

So...I'm not really sure how many people are behind bars for using steroids, but I'm guessing it's fairly small. But I'm right with you on the drug charges. It is out of control.

Sorry to hear that GD. I support you getting a camper and driving across the country.

But there is a difference, I know and respect Quinn and what she went through, so yes I would care I don't like or support Anita anymore so I would also stay out of it I don't know TB, I don't think I have ever read one of his links so he has no identity for me? Then why are you even commenting on it? I don't know the guy either, but I sympathize with anyone dealing with cancer. However it really isn't my place to comment on it because I am not familiar with his work, and would rather leave that to his fans. Have some decorum.

Ugh, dog got sprayed by a skunk. My son woke me up around 3 AM because he heard something. I helped him get back to sleep, then I let the dog out to go to the bathroom. I was clearly tired, because I should have put it together that there was probably a skunk outside. When I went to let him back in, he blew by me and it was clear he got hit full bore. We spent about an hour cleaning him and the front room he had walked through.

It's pretty exciting to watch a pitcher during a no-hitter though. The tension ramps up with every pitch.

Starting pitchers are gone, should be an interesting finish!

They tried to address those concerns, for example you now get more skill points. How well they've succeeded you'd have to judge for yourself, it's not an easy balance. If only they had more time to balance! I keed I keed. I have been enjoying Dead State, so I'm hoping this is as enjoyable.

And what would you suggest be done about those? Assuming you are concerned about them. As I said, there is nothing wrong with the quad protest route. I am too old for it now, and in college too busy with work and trying to get laid, but I think college activism is an important part of our cultural identity. But since you asked about KP's list, this is what I'm doing: 1. Big Brother State - I try and vote for candidates that will not infringe on privacy. It is not as easy as it sounds. I teach my students about Habeas Corpus and how it is currently suspended for non-citizens. Given that many of my students and their parents are non-citizens, that hits home. We tend to talk about this stuff throughout the year. It is not my job to preach at them though, I simply supply information and hope they develop critical thinking skills. 2. Corporations - I try and support local and small businesses. I sign those Change.org things on ocassion. 3. Foreign Wars - Again with the voting. It isn't the taxes that bother me here, it is the fact we go in and make the same mistakes over and over again. We need a new foreign policy. 4. Corporate lobbyists - I'll support anyone who can get this crud out of politics. Again I can vote with my wallet a bit here. 5. I support local charities. So yeah, I agree with KP on every problem. That is why I said there was nothing wrong with him protesting in the quad. It wasn't snark, it was just an observation that amused me. I do differ with him on one thing tremendously though. I'm deeply in love with the US. I think the good far outweighs the bad, and I have no desire to live anywhere else. I love the diversity, I love the ingenuity, I love the open spaces and the busy cities.

I'm pretty sure ambition, drive, and bravery are by-products of hard work. Also I've known a lot of lazy smart people and they don't get very far in life.

I'd rather be that than be blindly accepting of the USA Freedom Act or TPP. Are those the only two options?

KP sounds like the college students who stand out in the quad with posters. Not that there is anything wrong with that, mind you. Fight the man!
