I just don't think there is a QB in the game that can throw an accurate 50 yard out. Maybe I am wrong. Example?
I saw this commercial once where Ron Mexico whipped one right out at of the stadium.
It was awesome!

Touchè
I forgot all about that. I never read them things. Anyway, I've fix it - so you happy now?!?!
Much better.

"Gravity" of the situation. Good one.
I laughed too until I realized he wasn't trying to be funny.
Probably a Canuck.......

Umm, it seems as though you're being awfully nitpicky here, and technically incorrect as well. Although one definition of the word "ace" is the number one, an equally acceptable definition of the term in the golf context is the act of making a hole-in-one, and not simply a "score."
"Ace" is used in precisely the same way we use the terms par, birdie, eagle, and bogey -- it's just that when we say ace, we know the score must be a one.
There's nothing stupid about saying "missed an ace by inches."
May I suggest you run some diagnostics on your sarcasm detector?

Because the gravity of the (alleged) crime and the import of the victim's place in this world should be based upon some superficial perception of attractiveness - right?
I'm ashamed of those of you who posted disparaging remarks after seeing the photo.....
Where's the honor from you "fans" and from the driver who has yet to fess up?
Pretty high and mighty from a guy who's tagline makes fun of the mentally handicapped.

How should we decide the Napster case? Or Berstein v US in which compilable source code was settled to be speech, and not an item which can be regulated? Let's look at letter's to Madison's mom for clues!
That's an easy one. Just like you and your modern day heroes are wont to do,
the men who had the foresight to found this nation would have surely have deferred to the federal government and thrown a few billion dollars of the citizen's money to them!
But your point is my point - they were politicians not very different than today.George Bush = George Washington
Thomas Jefferson = Tom Delay
John Kerry = John Adams
Yeah, I'm beginning to see your point.
Perhaps if you wore a hat nobody would notice.
What a waste of keystrokes that conversation turned out to be.

Nothing really. It grants the government the power to create and collect taxes, to pay debts and provide for the common welfare and defense.
You forgot interstate commerce, currency and transportation.
And the fact that powers not granted to the U.S. by the constitution are reserved to the States.
Only an idiot would believe that the founding fathers impliticely intended a balanced budget. We would not have been able to fight the Revolutionary War without going into debt. And the fact that they explicitely mention paying debts as a legitimate activity suggests deficits are permissible.Only an idiot would believe that the expansive power of the current federal government even remotely resembles the ideals upon which our nation was founded.
Only an idiot would believe that the men who had the foresight to write up the Constitution would find it acceptable for the Fed to impose itself into the people's business by spending billions of dollars on crap like NCLB.
Only an idiot would believe that our overcoddling and intrusive motherment is what the founders of our nation had in mind when they rightly decreed that liberty and independence go hand in hand.
(For the record, I am for fiscal discipline. What I am against is the idol worshipping of the founding fathers and their dated perspectives and pieces of papers written for a society that has little resemblance to our own. I really don't care what a bunch of 18th century landowners/weekend politicians thought about economics.)Yeah, those old farts were a bunch of idiots. Their classical educations and explorations of alternate politics and philosophies can't hold a candle to the technologically savvy social engineers today. This moving away from our roots must be the primary explanation why our country is so much better off today as the federal government increases its power by leaps and bounds.
Like you I also place way more stock in the current day genius' and their modern perspectives on how to lead our nation. Those out of touch landowners obviously had no idea what they were about. Thank gawd we've tossed away their ideals for the cutting edge wisdom of great thinkers like the Bush's and Clinton's!

Your my new hero.

Yep, within inches of an ace. Not he just missed an ace. An ace is positive. It sounds like you botched something saying missed an ace.
No. You can say he came within inches of the cup, or the pin, or the jar or the flag.
But an ace is a score and you can't say he came within inches of a score.
That's just stupid.
An ace is a rarity for non pro's. You don't often come close to an ace.In my last two rounds I've had 4 tap-ins for a 2. I'd say that qualifies for "often" coming close to scoring an ace.
Notice I said coming close to "scoring an ace", not coming close to an ace, because it's just a score. You can come close to a cup or a flag or a pin, but not an ace.

Seriously though, back to golf terminology; you can not MISS an ace. It either drops in the hole or it doesn't. It can be classified as missing the cup or just nearly missing the hole. I have been playing golf for twenty five years and I have never heard anyone say that they just missed an ace.
From the Associated Press, the world's leading news organization:
"Mediate flipped his club to the front of the tee box when he came within inches of an ace on the par-3 third."
What a pack of idiots! Can you believe somebody would write something that stupid!

Is there some really good variation or merge of the two plans that doesn't ratchet up deficit spending? I don't know how to do that, do you?
A simple invariable 10% tax on every individual and corporation combined with federal spending limited to what is actually alloted for in the US Constitution?
-
I thought it was plenty descriptive. Aren't we being a tad picky?
PTR
First you falsely claimed that the woman was suing when in fact the article clearly states "O’Connell ... said no decision has been made on whether Shpeley will file a lawsuit against Lynch.".
Then you falsely claimed that Lynch hit her, when in fact we have no idea who was driving.
So yes, your subject was plenty descriptive; it just happened to be entirely fabricated.

Think 9/20 (Oakland), and don't bring any beer.
Whiskey it is!

How is this different than 50 other threads other than BADOLBILZ wanting to hang him from his dreads?
Because arguably the best poster in the long history of this board can post whatever and whenever he pleases.

Since either Kobe or the Boston fans will lose, I'm looking at myself as half full.
And I was thinking that since one of those bags of douche(s) is bound to win, I wouldn't be watching a single minute of it.
And congrats on the nuptials!
