    Gorgeous night here in St Paul
  3. And he did all of that with 10+ time zones of jet lag doing its worst.
  4. On our last trip to New York, we saw Come From Away, the musical dramatization of the world suddenly arriving in Gander, Newfoundland. It's a terrific show. The whole episode, as well as the boatlift, shows the brightness that punched through a horrible dark day. As I've posted before, I hope that if the chips are down, I've got a shred of the courage of those on Flight 93.
  5. They're playing the Bears. The rest of the NFC outside Philadelphia and San Francisco is warmed over dog shit.
  6. Our long national nightmare is over. Packed house here at the New Brickhouse.
  7. It's a beautiful day here in MSP.
  8. To the Republican Party's voters, this is an asset, not a liability.
  9. Speaking of Rosie, that's my entry into this pool. Nineteen stone, 266 pounds.
  10. I had no idea until well after I saw the movie that Gary Oldman was HST.
  11. This ain't your great-granddaddy's Red Army. 40% of said Red Army were Ukrainians.
  12. Every Republican accusation is a confession.
  13. IIRC John Rocker gave up a walk-off balk right when he was in the middle of his controversy.
  14. The instant that Obama's campaign in the 2008 Democratic primaries finished off Hillary, anyone with a pulse knew that she was A) going to be the 2016 Democratic nominee, and B ) she would be in huge trouble in a nationwide general.
  15. I have yet to hear any good argument from any quarters for term limits that stand up to scrutiny. All you end up with is a Legislature lacking in institutional knowledge and totally reliant on Big Lobby. There are already mandatory retirement ages in the federal system. That would be a far more effective improvement.
  16. Los Alamos sure as hell ain't no party, disco, or CBGB. Saw it last night. Thoughts: -Enjoyed it. Very heavy material. -Somehow Nolan managed to make three movies at the same time (a standard biopic, a treatise on the pitfalls of nuclear weaponry, and a courtroom drama) and roll them all into one. -There's no way RDJr could have pulled that off if he hadn't spent the past decade playing Tony Starke. -Was it just the theater I was in (Alamo Drafthouse Twin Cities Big Show screen), or did Nolan need to pull way back on the top-end volume?
  17. This is the third time the same guy has pushed this story as breaking news. If there was anything to it, the MSP media (which easily has the worst college sports media coverage in the Big Ten and has already flushed out at least 2 massive scandal in the U of M athletic department) would have pounced on it.
  18. 3-0 despite having two goals taken down for offside, a missed PK, and hitting the crossbar.
