Was there a window in parliament for him to fall through to get his head injuries? Did he fall far enough to bounce and get multiple injuries or wad his head closed in the window a few times? Say, I a head has a window shut on it numerous times while partly out the window, does it still count as defenestration? I am just trying to get the story to fit in Putin's normal modus operandi.

Aw come on...You know every time Lucy pulled the ball away, she was trying to get Charlie on his back. Well, maybe this once, he wanted to be on his back with her screaming?

Not too long ago, it seemed QB starting their first game or even playing in their first game always seemed to come out and light up our team. Now we have people bemoaning victories not looking easy against them. It may not seem like much, but it smacks of progress to me.

My son made this and asked mom and me, "See what I made, What does it look like to you?" I looked at Mrs.Gbear ND thought sometimes kids make it difficult to keep mind out of gutter. To him it is a gas pump.

I was talking with a neighbor about school lunches the other day, and he brought up an interesting point. When he was growing up, kids who brought lunches to school were thought of as rich. I thought that was odd, but he pointed out in a poor school district, like where he grew up, almost everybody was poor enough to qualify for the free lunches. If you brought your lunch, it meant you were wealthy to qualify for the free lunches. Now, my kids liked some of the free lunches. While they prefer our food for the most part, they don't like making their lunches at night. Tough! I find their laziness despicable and ungrateful. We are a lucky, spoiled crew.

I think we win this one 24-17 with a D surging and only allowing 10 pts (one on a break down in the secondary allowing a deep pass). The O will give up a pick 6, but run to day light more often than not and letting scary Terry do what needs to be done to control the game.

Does she own the car or her parents? Low jack? I ask because it could be the quickest easiest way. The PI suggestion could work. Ever seen the show where they hire people to try and find contestants? It is really difficult to go completely off the grid these days. Sadly, as an adoptive parent of four, I expect one or more will do this to us. Primal wounds are visceral, and teen and early adult years are hard enough on a parent child relationship. Of course if one of ours did this, it would mean we raised them enough to leave the nest which would be huge! While I expect one will just cut us out (playing odds), I also don't see any of my kids being independent enough to do so any time soon...

Seditionary...is that some new fangled code for ye old "missionary?"

Well, it probably wasn't Putin's guys, unless he fell out a window before getting hung up... Seriously, as chaotic as our politics are with a Republican party turning a blind eye to insurrection, I read about Russia and think, "we could be much worse." Here's hoping we don't ever get there.

What is this "post curse" time period of which you speak? Did you think the one shining willow-o'-the-wisp moment of a hockey championship would lead us from the outer-Mongolia of the parking lot furthest from the stadium of sports success all the way to the Mecca land of podiums and parades? No, I suspect this willow-o'- the-wisp did as its legendary forefathers and lead us on a hopeless chase further and further from our desired destination and deeper into a hopeless swamp. You did know DC is built on a swamp, right?

He looks like William Shatner. Of course, Captain Kirk would have to rescue us.

I predict we're going on a bear hunt. We're gonna catch a big one. We're not scared. Maybe if we sneak up on it, we can win. So... tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe... What's that? It's a bear! I predict we run like the kids in the book. The only question is whether we run over the defense or run from a win. I predict the later. We lose 24-13 proving we can make even an ugly bear look good. I suppose it's possible we tie, proving when it comes to an opponent's score, we can't go over it or under it.

Mrs. Potts from little mermaid too. Edit: sorry, beauty and the beast.

So it's a log cabin republican dating ap? I can only imagine going on their to find dates kind of like a straight guy going into a gay bar and wondering why no women are responding to his usual schtick. Seems like a scene from an 80's comedy movie or perhaps a Birdcage 2?

They should have used Ukraine's colors.

So when Putin rambles on about the evil west with its teaching to children about sex beyond that with which we are born, who do you think his audience is? Reading about some of his speech, I wonder if it isn't a call for support from the right wing in our country and Europe. Otherwise, it seems to come out if the blue.

I was watching The Life of Brian with my son yesterday (both in COVID isolation in our basement). I was struck remembering how it made it on the banned list of movies for the Catholic Church and how much it made me enjoy the movie in high school. I liked the Holy Grail movie, but I am not sure I would have ever seen the movie without it being on the banned list. For what it's worth, the movie is still funny, and my son liked it too. The best part though was hearing my wife yelling at my youngest son up stairs for being his usual stubborn rebellious self while she was trying to cook. She was going off yelling at him while this was playing on the TV: Note, we both found the movie's humor to have mostly aged well. I thought it was fascinating to look at from the 2020's perspective. There was a bit on a man who wanted to be a woman which I could still hear today (though science has made much more possible than was available in 1979 when the film was made). I was surprised to notice black face in the 3 kings coming for Jesus but finding Brian. I never noticed when I watched in high school, but my awareness of such things has changed a lot in the 30+ years since I first saw the movie. I was also surprised by full frontal nudity of both men and women, but I think that just goes to how prudish we have become. All in all, I really enjoyed re-watching the movie because the humor is still excellent.

I find I still care, but if I am honest I probably care more for this board than the team at this point. The team still provides me a good workout every week as I do push-ups and planks at every commercial break, and I still get excited to see them play well. I still wear Skins hats primarily because I was given them for birthdays and I still have a rotation of them for when I run. Lately though, I am almost embarrassed to wear them as I now think the name was racist (something I never thought much less admitted when the name applied to anything other than our history). At this point fandom is more like a shared experience of suffering. We have become the "long suffering fans of Washington football." It has become a kind of badge of honor, kind of like what I imagine being a Cubs or White Sox fan must be like, except we have a history of winning to remember. LAtely though, the relevancy of our past glories feels like Al Bundy talking about his high school TD.

I would add one what if to the current generation. What if Sean Taylor doesn't die? Our D has never been the same since, and our record might be far different if we had a D. Of course feels like I should be singing that to the tune of "If I only had a brain..."

That is why a jail broken forest icky is a must for watching these shows. You can get them all without having to subscribe to every platform under the sun.

Well for what it's worth, I acknowledge these situations exist. I don't let myself get caught up on a percentage for a goal. I just look for "better" with "better" being determined by how much better, for how many, and at what cost. I think this is the logic which got us the ACA even when many of us liberals would have preferred universal coverage. Iterative improvements is the name of the game...except when a sizable portion of the decision makers want to just burn it all down.

This is the exact reaction liberal areas of the 80's and 90's had to the million dollar Murray issue. It turns out that it is cheaper to rent/provide shelters for the homeless and provide them with social services rather than have homeless people take over parts of the city and then treat them when the inevitable uptick in emergencies happen. The problem comes 5 to 10 years down the line when people see Murray got his studio paid for and has a social worker despite never once paying rent out of his own pocket. How is that fair when Martha has to work two jobs while taking care of her kids as a single mom so she can pay rent? Yes, from a societal level, it makes a lot of sense to get these people off the streets, keep them clothed and even make sure they have food. It's how to sell it at the individual fairness level where it has problems. We are a society that celebrates our individuality and personal responsibility to the point where that is the level we reflexively go to examine right and wrong courses of action. We get stuck making decisions at the micro level even when deciding issues of societal import.

Even for a rich guy with a questionable business history, i bet it's not everyday he is sued for a quarter billion dollars in fraud. That is impressive. I doubt I could amass such charges against me if I tried.

Of course if not married, Buchanan did not cheat on his wife. Lol

I think you are ignoring the poison of 24 hour news willing to publish any dirt. How many people know that before Obama, there was only one president who never cheated on his wife? It wasn't considered news worthy. BTW, the one was Carter who only "lusted in his heart." Lol
