  1. I'm curious about how much, if any of the yelling can be heard on the 911 call. It seems like that would pretty much paint the full picture. Anyway, if the statement is true that the victim (not even sure if that is the right word here) had to climb a 6 foot fence to get in, I think that pretty much says it all. Wrong place at the incredibly wrong time, but completely justified.
  2. He definitely does seem to have the whole casting thing down to a science. But then again, anyone who uses actors like Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman in minor supporting roles clearly puts a lot of thought into that whole process.
  3. I'm sure they'll get it right and have him as an intellectual and physical equivalent to Bruce Wayne. There's a lot of potential right there. I can't wait to see what they do with him. All I know is that the bar for Bane was set incredibly low by Schumacher, so it can only get better from here.
  4. I hope we get to the point where we start to see birds flying around wearing miniature foil hats. That would be pretty cool.
  5. My friend always tells a story from his high school days of a kid on his roller hockey team who would always say that to people. He said it to a ref one game who just happened to be indian and was immediately tossed from the game.
  6. I thought they were bad enough as internet speak, but it's a million times worse when someone actually says them out loud.
  7. They will probably go with a similar approach to what the NHL took. They would have some sort of weighted lottery to determine the draft order. It makes the most sense and avoids most teams complaining about Carolina getting 2 #1s in a row.
  8. I think it's incredibly stupid, but at the end of the day, I think the story will still get through. Then again, I don't see this lasting very long anyway.
  9. If you're joining a gym, most probably offer a free session with a trainer to new members. You probably have a decent idea of things you can do, but if it's free and available, why not.
  10. And the vast majority of the news is full of the typical "1 inch of snow coming, hide the women and children" or "crook politician" stories. Even if it isn't very important on the grand scale, it's good to see something positive get attention.
  11. True Grit was really good. Has the little girl been getting any recognition for that one? She was really good.
  12. I love when a conversation like this takes place and then a few posts later the original idea is proven.
  13. It's not just the media though. I can't count the number of commercials I see from the ambulance chaser law firms every time even the crappiest of studies surfaces suggesting a link to any type of illness/injury.
  14. Just out of curiousity, what would you do if you found yourself looking for a decent meal but were a bit pressed for time? I'll take any chance I can get to move away from my typical meals of spaghetti or chicken on the Foreman grill.
  15. I'll second this one. That stuff is really good and about as simple as possible. I just wish I wasn't out of it when I cooked some chicken last night.
  16. one game
  17. Mark gave an age range and both you and the Dean aren't in it. It's that simple. Everyone's got their own iconic tv/entertainment figures and of course they're going to vary from person to person and age to age.
  18. Yeah, I know, but just imagine if they could do it that way. That would be one hell of a visual.
  19. I'm pretty sure that they're actually behind this long period of suck that is known as Buffalo Bills football.
  20. I've always heard the stories about this but never actually saw any pictures until today. That's pretty cool. I wish there was some video out there of the moment they took the dam out. Actually, it would probably be pretty boring since they couldn't just take the whole thing out in one instant.
  21. Now I'm not sure if this wall is legal or not. If that box between the sideline and the extra white line is a coaches only area, where do the inactive players fall in those rules?
  22. The take it more seriously message is to be aware when you see something that just doesn't make sense. That guy who just left his bag under the seat and walked away? Yeah, it's probably nothing, but tell him "hey, you forgot your bag". If nothing else, you probably just saved that guy from having to buy some new stuff. I see no problem in it.
  23. And if the casino quickly phases out all of their old high roller chips and replaces them with new ones, that guy sticks out like a sore thumb.
  24. Oops, missed the 3rd page before posting. Anyway, I think those posts pretty much back up what I was thinking. Most of the more recent stuff that you mentioned seemed to all be covers/re-workings of those original classics. I've heard plenty of them, but at the end of the day, pretty much everyone is still going to associate those songs with the original versions.
  25. I think I cried earlier today when I watched that clip.
