What qualifies as a large pizza in Edinburgh? 15 cm?

Or they got killed.

Terry Boers, Chicago sports radio guy who died a couple of weeks ago, used to joke that he wanted to park an old pickup on a street in the South with a decal of Calvin peeing on # 3 on the rear window to see what would happen, while recording the video.

If you can't control your speed without cruise control, can you control your brakes?

I am an old man with a manual transmission, and I never use it. I find the need to modulate my speed too consistent to lock it in. Even on the interstate.

Were he not a racist MAGA piece of crap, Trump would never condescend to speak to him or of him.

Collectivism is a dream. I have no idea what spiritual means.

Only a Fool Would Say That - Wikipedia

Here's a brief explanation in the Wikipedia page about the song. I really dislike the ideas, if that they are, in the song. Fagen and Becker laughed at a man driving a Rolls Royce singing "Imagine no possessions."

Steely Dan wrote Only a Fool Would Say That to mock the ideas in Imagine.

A claim by Epstein's brother is not evidence. Jackie thought LBJ killed JFK, and RFK thought it was the CIA.

All such unsubstantiated claims are preserved in the Epstein files, and inclusion in those files is not evidence of factuality.

Russia/USSR certainly identified Trump as a mark, an asset, a chump decades ago, and if Epstein were, in fact, an agent, Russian intel would certainly directed him to target Trump, knowing his proclivities and weaknesses.

Let that be a warning to other corporations thinking about spending money to move production to anti-labor Dixie.

Let's hope these new union members vote for Democrats.

They can be impeached for any offense, in the eyes of Congress, and that offense need not be a crime.

But I said that Congress can ignore actual crimes, refusing to impeach, to emphasize Congress's power to impeach or not, for totally political reasons .

Impeachment removes only the person impeached. Other political appointees can each be removed for their own offenses after individual impeachment.

Impeachment is a political process, not prosecution. Any reason the House and ⅔ of the Senate agree on will do. There is no appeal.

Similarly, Congress can ignore any crime the President commits right in front of them. And he can't be charged with a crime while he's still in office.

American Metaphysical Circus - Mr. 4th of July

I know that film.

Not yet.

The music is by the Avalon Boys with Chill Wills. I have a CD of music from their films.

Wave the bloody shirt!

Channel 1 was prone to interference issues, and the FCC abandoned it by 1948.

The entire FM radio band lies between TV channels 6 and 7.

You risk being called a Communist. It is quite possible to be a Keynesian capitalist who advocates for a strong safety net, vigorous antitrust law enforcement, proper regulation of business, and a tax code that allows ample reward for innovators without undue concentration of wealth.

That picture of that pitcher shows how pitching is a total body effort, and nobody ever did it better.

I have never heard of this film before. 6.2 on IMDB, which is not terrible. Gwangi is credited appearing as Gwangi. Funny.

Franciscus was Mr. Novak in the '60s. Richard Carlson wws in lots of similar stuff. He starred in I Led Three Lives, which I loved, in the early 1950s. Very McCarthy era.

Tittle owned an insurance agency in SF. He told me he owned a football camp north of SF, but I don't know when that started, or who attended. My guess is HS and college players with hopes to make the big time.

I spent 4 hours on an airliner with HOF quarterback Y. A. Tittle in 2008. He was apparently suffering from the effects of age and CTE. He complained bitterly about making only $20,000 in 1959, his first year with the Giants.

The Steelers, Colts, and Browns were each paid $3 million, lot of money then, to join the AFC, balancing the AFC and NFC at 13 teams each. Art Modell, owner of the Browns, wanted this, as the Browns were in financial straits at the time.

People today have no idea how little the NFL mattered then.

I attended one Jets game that big year. Nobody thought they had a chance, and Namath, doing his best Muhammad Ali imitation, promised victory in the first Super Bowl won by the then AFL.

I think that Jets-Colts game was the first officially called the Super Bowl. Super Bowl III.

Road Runner and Wiley Coyote seems appropriate.

It's been a long time since I read it, by I recall enjoying it quite a bit.

Magical realism.
