  1. I saw Jeremy Allen White with a film crew at the Chili’s off 45th and Lamar.
  2. Oh Jesus Christ.
  3. They're not being deported, they just ran out of papers.
  4. Really? I never thought he was all that attractive.
  5. Yep. Chip is a badass, and one of the nation's experts in media and defamation law. He's also a really nice guy, as long ago through a mutual work relationship I had dinner with him several times. Lively's lawyers are going to have their hands full with him.
  6. Justin Tucker would disagree.
  7. Following up on my comment about Cobain above, I think Layne Staley, with or without Alice 'N Chains, might have kept a musical career going had it not been for his suicide. From everything I remember and have read about Cobain, he seemed so sick and tired of fame and touring in front of crowds. Not to compare him musically to Jim Morrison, but before Morrison died he appeared to have given up on music and retreated away to focus on poetry and stuff other than being in a rock band. I think Kurt Cobain would've done something like that.
  8. Would've loved to see what John Lennon did in the 80s and beyond. Same with Marvin Gaye, especially how R&B evolved so much in the 80s and 90s. I'm sure a lot of people would mention Kurt Cobain. I think folks forget that the "grunge" genre which exploded with Nirvana and other bands in the early 90s very quickly got diluted and essentially destroyed with the crap that the latter part of the decade produced. I've wondered how Cobain would've deal with that, and if he hadn't eventually killed himself, he may just have faded into the background.
  9. I know this is all incredibly so fucked up and infuriating. But that bit about resettling Chuck Shumer made me chuckle.
  10. I also have a low key Super Bowl Sunday planned since we'll be looking after our one-year old pup coming off shoulder surgery. I never really cared for pimento cheese until my wife got me hooked on it a few years ago. Ina Garten has a spicy pimento cheese recipe that kicks ass, and I put that with bacon on sourdough bread for grilled pimento cheese sandwiches. That and maybe some sort of meatball action and a buffalo chicken dip.
  11. If we can get a college located in Gaza, how long before they get a P5 football team?
  12. A slightly more recent example is Brown v. Board of Education. The Court issued the decision in 1954, and it took another decade for large parts of America to fall in line. And it's not because state and local governments just decide it was time to obey a decision from the highest court of the land. It took federal and congressional enforcement.
  13. Just as long as he doesn't rub the jury the wrong way.
  14. I don't think it's going to be a happy ending for him.
  15. The guy scores 100 points in a game and he thinks he's an expert in foreign affairs.
  16. This is why guys like you will never win a knife fight.
  17. It’s because Justin Tucker can’t control himself.
  18. If you pay $500 per hour and have a good retirement plan, I’ll be your first applicant.
  19. Not Top 5, but The Town is a great film.
