  1. Dumbass's friends: "Man, you really got to try the beaver up in Kennewick. That ****'s the bomb!" Dumbass: "Yeah, lemme just finish off this dime first..."
  2. And the fan was sitting, like, at least 25 yards out of bounds.
  3. Yeah, Jake Bortles is almost as bad as Blake Plummer was back in the day....
  4. TBH, that's probably the highlight for this game. It's only goin' downhill from here...
  5. Fast-forward to end of season stats: And the #1 target for "crack-back" blocks this year was... Jalen "Black-and-blue" Ramsey ...
  6. "Pikachu and Squirtle" - now I finally get the names...
  7. Judging from the last photo, she definitely knows how to handle a cockatoo. Big yes.
  8. I went to see Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady a few years back and they were !@#$ing awesome. I slipped my business card to their manager after the show and they let me come backstage and bull **** with them for a while. Super nice guys and phenomenal musicians.
  9. Sorry about that, I just copy/pasted the url from the article and didn't closely read the hyperlink text itself; I can see why you thought that!
  10. Plus those 3 games in 2009. Hard to believe that's nearly 10 years ago.
  11. Maybe, but there'd be triple zip-tie cuffs involved. (Not on me.)
  12. I think they finally finished dying: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2018/08/07/fetus-american-airlines-plane-laguardia-airport/922668002/
  13. Paul McCartney was the 7th highest grossing rock and roll act in 2017. Stones were 9th. #1 was U2, who average a spry 57 years of age.
  14. California had 842000 vs. 14768000, which is 5.7% I would expect the ratio to be close to that 5.5% figure in most states; probably a bit lower in exceptionally snowy places, and a bit higher in warm weather places. When I lived up in the Sierras and commuted to work over Donner Pass I owned 3 motorcycles and 0 cars/trucks, but I am a crazy!@#$er..
  15. According to this site, in 2016 North Carolina had about 3,546,000 registered automobiles, and 196,000 registered motorcycles (rounding to nearest thousand). That's 5.5%.
  16. Yep, just looked it up. The whole 2005-2007 seasons and off-seasons. So it is definitely possible to "train up" a spread/air-raid college QB to run a pro-style NFL offense, assuming the base talent level is there, but with only 1 season and 2 offseasons so far, it wouldn't be shocking to see Mahomes struggle for a year or two as the starter.
  17. How many years did Rodgers sit on the bench and learn the offense before starting?
  18. Nothing inherently wrong with a V4 Duc. The (now 11 yrs old) Desmosedici RR was a great bike. I'd kill to have one of those babies. You can always trade up later... if you're alive and kicking! That's the 2018 959 Panigale in stock red. A very nice bike. This is actually the same bike in Corse trim which I also like a lot:
  19. Ah - the new one. Frankly, I haven't heard too many people raving about this latest incarnation of the V4 mill but that could be due to the newness factor. It's a looker for sure. But there's no way in hell I'd recommend an 1100cc sportbike for a first time pilot. 1100's are just...different. Once you hit the powerband, **** happens before you can finish a blink. If you do go that way...good luck!
  20. What are you looking at? Those specs are in the ballpark for GSX-R, S1000RR, YZF-R1, or if you're really loaded, a used Superleggera or Desmosedici?
  21. Probably the time I decided spur-of-the-moment to do a half-century bicycle ride down in Mexico (despite 1. never having done a ride that long and 2. not owning a bicycle), and figured my car could make it there and back even though it was overdue for an oil change (yes I was young and stupid). Ended up smoking the car's engine and having to *push* it back over the U.S./Mexico border under the frowny faces of both border patrols. Then had to arrange to get it towed somewhere, then ended up replacing the whole engine. I think I slept for about a week straight after that trip from hell. (Not my worst trip from hell, however.)
