Saw it at the request of my nieces. If you have seen the others, you've seen this movie....with the exception of how it ends. Stay for the end credits scene.

Jurassic World: Surprisingly dark ending.

+1 The fans were juiced. The Bills rolled out that unconventional defense and had Romo on the ropes for most of the game. Was a heartbreaker to lose. Was always curious why the Bills only did that for that one game.

They should leave TNG alone. It's literally the only Star Trek product that gets universal acclaim from both die hard and casual fans. The TNG series finale is an example of near perfect stagecraft. The writing and acting were excellent.

The obsession with companies having to create endless online content has led to the miserable "journalism" product of today. I remember in the summer of 1998 on Sports Illustrated's webpage about how the St. Louis Rams were going to be a nightmare in the upcoming season, one of the worst teams in the league. Trent Green just broke his leg that day during a preseason game and the team was relying on some guy off the street named Kurt Warner. Vermeil was being assailed for not wanting to trade for a quarterback with NFL experience. He was throwing the season away. For some reason, that example has always remained with me on how hot takes masquerading as "news" and fact.

It's the bean counters and lawyers. Insurance companies don't want to be paying out the short term disability on a $40 million contract because the pricey insured asset broke his hand in the 30-second bar fight.

Picked the wrong state to wander around in. Ranchers aren't going to mess around with that on the property. Should have picked Washington or California where people still go "jogging" in bobcat country and are amazed nature has the audacity to attack them. Don't they realize these sneakers cost $130?

Ironically, I worked at a True Value from when I was 12 to 22. Back in the day before the Internet and even Home Depot, you had to first learn how to fix things yourself, then be able to communicate it to customers. Even had to mix paint using just a book and cut keys with human hands on the machine.

I'd support your idea 100%. Due to age, medical issues, etc. not all fans can stand to watch the game.

I prefer Home Depot over Lowe's. While both aren't known for customer service, the Home Depot associates at least acknowledge the customers in their presence in Pennsylvania. ? I like shopping at a local Ace Hardware. For one, they sell Stihl products which are superior to any of the stuff they sell at Home Depot or Lowe's. Two, they stock a lot more parts for tractors, snowblowers and gas grills than a big box. That comes in handy when online ordering won't beat the snowstorm or your tractor is marooned in a half cut yard. I buy basic tools like wrenches and sockets from Harbor Freight. If you're a mechanic, they probably don't cut it but for general maintenance of your vehicles or house, you can get a lot of mileage out of Pittsburgh tools for a good price.

1) Less train horn. 2) If Trump and Kim can meet in Singapore, Flutie *and* RJ together can lead the team out of the tunnel for a game. ?

Love him or hate him, Trump is doing something both Bushes, Clinton and Obama couldn't. I've never understood the preoccupation that some have with keeping US troops in Korea in perpetuity. Times change. If someone from 2018 went back to 1970 and said the United States and Vietnam are signing cooperative trade and security deals and the Vietnamese Prime Minister visits the White House, you'd be laughed out of the room.

I don't know about record but I imagine Mario Williams and Marcel Dareus would still be Buffalo Bills. I think the biggest impact would have been on Mario. I think his career ends quite differently. Instead of flaming out in Buffalo and then in Miami, he registers double digit sack seasons every year in that defense.

The time in your life* you* felt the best about yourself.

I recall reading that James Cameron wasn't interested in directing a sequel to that movie. I found that odd considering it's one of Arnold's better movies *and* one with an above average plot. He likes his Avatar universe and I think he's only doing another Terminator movie to keep his legacy intact after the last three stinkers. Out of all of Carpenter's movies, I don't think Halloween or even "The Thing" was his best. I think his best was "They Live."

We may differ in age a bit, but I remember when Drudge broke the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal and it was a watershed event for the "Internet" because he broke it well before any of the networks could. IMO, that was the first time the Internet demonstrated it could be a viable competitor to the traditional news networks. It basically took the Headline News format of 24 hour news and turned it digital without having to wait while the newscaster works his or her way through the stories. See a story you're interested in and click, you've got it. I think the simplicity and consistency of Drudge's page has and continues to be brilliant web design. I too am surprised the networks haven't copied the format.

TO has always been the one football player that I shouldn't like, but I always have. I suppose it's due in part to the fact that he never had to stand trial (I see you Ray Lewis), was never was convicted of a crime, never suspended for performance enhancing drugs, etc and played hard for every team he was on during his NFL career. I respected that he never dogged it in Buffalo and he played on essentially one good leg in the Super Bowl with the Eagles. He's guilty of a big ego and being super weird.

Hop, skip and a jump from our clandestine moon base.

In some ways Drudge Report started it and 9/11 accelerated it. Drudge was able to get breaking news out so much faster than the networks, even MSNBC which was started as a way to get news out so fast on your MicroSoft Internet Explorer. Since networks could no longer scoop the news like they used to, they now found themselves filling air time talking about it like everyone else and in order to keep viewers, the commentary had to be attractive or incite some emotion. Fox rolled out the pretty and handsome hosts, MSNBC turned up the rhetoric and CNN had no idea what to do. It was stuck between its real news history and the new dawn of punditry of Bill O'Reilly and Chris Matthews. Secondly, on 9/11 and every day since, real news was relegated to the "ticker" at the bottom of the screen and air time was filled with well-dressed opinion from commentators. Can you imagine Peter Jennings doing a Don Lemon or a Sean Hannity bit? Since the reportable stuff is now just a streaming phrase, "media" needed something new to "report" on and it was opinion. Opinion is cheap and easy to report and if your opinion is inflammatory, YOU can be the news. It's easier to digest because you're reacting to someone else's reaction. It creates one of three emotions: Joy, anger or apathy.

Keep in mind that soils near volcanoes are some of the best in the world for growing crops.

Come on now, which one of you went and saw Book Club?

I appreciate that he salvaged his career in Buffalo and played well. However, I doubt he will play in the NFL again for myriad reasons.

I'd like one of these leagues to be successful. The NFL desperately needs a minor league system for players, coaches and referees. The XFL is behind the eight ball though with the other league collecting all the "name" talent that is out there looking for something to do.

In a way, her cause of death was ego and pride She knew she was mentally unwell and her loved ones desperately tried to get her to want help but she backed out every single time because she was fearful it'd hurt the "Kate Spade" brand. It appears she was unwell for quite some time. That has to be a punch to the face of all those loved ones. The "brand" was important than herself or them.

Mental illness is like water. It spends every second of its existence finding a way. What sucks is that she leaves behind a daughter who'll never understand why.
