  1. That's just pathetic.. Everything he touches turns to shite...beware MAGA's.
  2. I played hyde park in NF growing up. loved it but once got into a money game with a bunch of Mafiosa's. Was losing badly at the turn and had no money. The guy on my team bought me lunch at the turn and told me not to sweat it. He had my back. I think it was like $20 he covered but priceless.
  3. play for money. $5 a nine changes everything. 2 years away from the gold tee's depending on whether they're on my team then I get to play them. Everything is a negotiation.
  4. No. Not alone. Once had a guy hit back at me after a drive. He was about 30 yards short. Plugged balls suck (did I really write that). There's a new long overdue rule that a plugged ball can be lifted and placed. but u gotta find it first! I love the pin in rule for putting. Moves the game along...
  5. Great films. Probably some ancient critic in silk pajamas writing a list of his favorites. Lot's of nostalgia. But his days are done and he doesn't like the new stuff. There are great artists living and producing right now. Our collective creativity didn't plummet 20 years ago.
  6. Thanks for sharing that. Yup. Starving artists exist. Many could successfully do many other jobs. But they love their art. And that hyper competitive environment seems to be a part of it. That said, they should be paid a fair and good wage for their talents when they get cast.
  7. Thanks for the explanation. Absolutely no doubt that cast is extremely talented. A joy to watch and listen to (even for the 3rd time). But Jesus has not been portrayed by many black actors I can think of. Most of the paintings and religious art that we are exposed to include a BeeGee's Jesus with blonde hair and blue eyes...
  8. Even the pros do it. I was at the TPCi n Fla couple years back. Me and a friend were walking along 16 to get to the famous par 3 17th. A tour player was 100 yards off the tee on 16 which is about 500 yds iirc. Didn't see the shot but it must have been really bad. It's a very hard game. But it's great! Never hit 300, 265 is about my best. If you hit a snap hook or big cut you're dead and I do it way too often. Thus the alignment and set up lesson. No doubt it will help for a few rounds and then I'll turn in a 100. OB's add up quick.
  9. know the type. I get teased for holding on to my equipment too long. Til I was about 40, I had a set of steel shaft Walter Hagen's that the shafts finally started snapping on. Current Taylor mades are probably about 6 yo with a mismatched wedge cuz I lost the original. The old adage that you can't buy a game is true but decent stuff makes a difference.
  10. I play as often as my back allows these days. right now, I've been told not to. I play to a 16 right now. Was much better as a teen. Emulating Johnny Miller hurts tho. took a lesson just before I stopped and the guy worked for an hour on my alignment and takeaway. Shot a 41 the next day. Break 80 about once a year but not this year. So hope springs eternal. I just want to be competitive with the groups that go out at noon everyday and bet $5 a side.
  11. So is this sarcasm? If not, do you believe the country would have been better off with Pence folding like a cheap suit? I think we're drilling into the core now. Law and order pfffft... Yes, because he and Epps are playing the villains in your little morality play right now...
  12. This is show biz...it's not a conspiracy. but there is plenty of backstabbing from what I've read. Pretty ruthless. They'll work it out.
  13. To your credit , you didn't mention cultural misappropriation. Glad you enjoyed it too! Sara Bareilles is the best Mary Magdalene I've ever seen on screen. Her solo at 9 mins here is stunning
  14. I'm betting you don't approve. Too bad because it's a remarkable live production. And really, Palestinians are probably closer in color to the actors here than those who traditionally play the roles.
  15. meaning "doesn't bother me a bit". MAGA!!!"
  16. Awesome. No wasted words. And MAGA's despise him for it! Hate his guts. Show of hands that would have been happy had the scheme worked would sort the patriots from the pretenders.
  17. Well, I learned something today. This is pretty deep: Godwin's law itself can be applied mistakenly or abused as a distraction, diversion or even as censorship, when fallaciously miscasting an opponent's argument as hyperbole when the comparison made by the argument is appropriate.[11] Godwin himself has also criticized the overapplication of the law, claiming that it does not articulate a fallacy, but rather is intended to reduce the frequency of inappropriate and hyperbolic comparisons. Godwin wrote that "Although deliberately framed as if it were a law of nature or of mathematics, its purpose has always been rhetorical and pedagogical: I wanted folks who glibly compared someone else to Hitler to think a bit harder about the Holocaust."[12] In December 2015, Godwin commented on comparisons to Nazism and fascism being made by several articles between Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying: "If you're thoughtful about it and show some real awareness of history, go ahead and refer to Hitler when you talk about Trump, or any other politician."[13] In August 2017, Godwin made similar remarks on social media with respect to the two previous days' Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, endorsing and encouraging comparisons of its alt-right organizers to Nazis.[14][15] In June 2018, Godwin wrote an opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times denying the need to update or amend the rule. He rejected the idea that whoever invokes Godwin's law has lost the argument, and argued that, applied appropriately, the rule "should function less as a conversation ender and more as a conversation starter."[16]
  18. There are no horizons for you. That must be maddening.
  19. We walked out of the most recent Avatar. Terrible movie. But I love Guillermo Del Toro's stuff- Shape of Water is also amazing. There's some good TV too. Mentioned Mr's Maisel in another thread. Loved The Crown and Downton Abbey. Never at a loss for something to stream when I'm watching.
  20. you realize an agreement will set precedent? If an English filmmaker wants Ewan McGregor he'll have to pay similar money to what he would get in Hollywood. Unless it's really great art 😃
  21. you really are dense. It takes "creative types" to make art. You think some accountant in a cubicle at netflix thinks this stuff up and then produces it. Netflix will need to pay for the art. The cost is currently being determined by the strike. They will work it out. It's a part of the fabric of America. Transformers and Captain America included with Ben Hur and The Graduate. wow. you're so inquisitive! streaming on netflix as we speak. https://www.netflix.com/title/80218455
  22. Not sure if you noticed but I don't use a script. I frequently cite salient and relevant quotations from those in the middle of the storm. Perhaps you should try it...
  23. plenty of art movies still being made. Avoid the ones aimed at morons and produced to fund the artists real work. This won an Oscar this year and is definitely art but you might not enjoy it
  24. Geez, I wonder why...the group think we witness here has it's basis in that human turd. He tells you what to believe and you believe. He tells you to attack the capitol and you do. He tells you that Covid will be over by Easter and you believe him and go about your lives as if everything is fine, he tells you he's innocent... So were really not only concentrating on trump as a threat but also on people like you.
  25. sure, art is for pu$$ies...u all are pathetic cavemen
