78 and sunny here in the beautiful capital district of New York. Played some ultimate earlier in my shirtsleeves

I'd hit it...with a baseball bat.

The more I hear about this, the more I'm beginning to think that Zimmerman is !@#$ed. I didn't realize before that the evidence points to Martin actively retreating before the altercation.

What facts? What do we actually know about this case? Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding so far goes something like this: Things we know: 1. Zimmerman pursued Martin against the instructions of the 911 operator. 2. Zimmerman was carrying a weapon. 3. During a confrontation/struggle, Zimmerman fired his weapon and killed Martin. Things we don't know: 1. Who started the confrontation/struggle (Odds are that Zimmerman did, but "odds are" doesn't get you **** in a trial). 2. (Similar to 1) Who, if anybody, was acting in self-defense. I think this is a travesty, but if I were a prosecutor I would not want this case showing up on my desk. All Zimmerman would have to show is that he reasonably believed he was in danger of serious injury.

Which is why he would portray DC Tom in a movie. I love that thread so much. I'm glad Selmon dug it up.

Where have I heard that argument before?

In general, I say no. As to the specific case you're talking about, dev, that's one of the TSW-supplied avatars, is it not? I think it's one thing to go out and download a picture that another poster uses for an avatar and use that, while this case is slightly different.

Troilet? Whatever for?

Anything Filthadelphia gets a big fat goose egg from me.

7 of 8 so far for me. Picked Harvard over Vandy on a whim

You can tell it's a huge day for football. No OTW activity in over an hour.

Maybe I should go somewhere warm instead...

Mario Williams reportedly went with Buddy and Chan to OBD so he could check out the turf after signing his contract. He took a practice 3-point stance and blew out his ACL.

Clayton says that he's "on his way to Buffalo." That's a meeting, folks. Saints are still "unlikely" to bring back Meachem.

Can't, I'm in Florida

This from the guy whose reading skills and comprehension rival that of a farsighted gerbil.

Well in that case, it gets a bump from me.

Did anyone else think that this would be about Sage (who most of us know is fresh out of college) dating a 14 or 15 year old? Good luck with your new flame, Sage.

A bunch of us have already. This is OCinBuffalo. This is 3rdnlng. This is Dante. This is DC Tom. Any questions?

What, you don't like Pride and Prejudice?

If you have good equipment and still having trouble, try watching some youtube videos of guys demonstrating good safety razor technique. A few quick tips: *You obtain a closer shave by making more passes with your razor, not by exerting more pressure; I have to pass over my stubble at least twice to get a close shave. One pass will almost never do it. The goal isn't to carve off your entire beard in one pass, but to reduce your stubble bit by bit. *Angle of the razor is important. You have to experiment to figure out what angle is best for you. If the angle isn't right, you'll end up scraping over your stubble instead of slicing it. Unlike shaving with a cartridge razor (with a pivoting head), you, not the razor, are responsible for the angle. *Use short strokes. It helps you maintain the angle and correct pressure. *If your razor is adjustable, don't think that you can solve your shaving troubles by adjusting the razor. Keep it sharp Good luck. I've decided to wait a few years before graduating to a straight razor. It has a greater learning curve, for sure, than the safety razor.

I finally got it a few months ago. I think there are a lot more good movies on there than people think. You might not have heard of them, but they're there. I just wish there were more Wes Anderson movies to stream.
