  1. This is the crux of it all. I was raised a progressive Protestant (Presbyterian). I harbor no ill will towards Jews, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, atheists, etc. Based on admittedly limited experience, I don't think LDS beliefs overall align all that well with Christian beliefs, but that matters not one bit to me. I don't hold my Muslim friends to that standard, for instance. Just stop killing people. Full stop.
  2. lulz at Sark saying "Auburn Alabama" before correcting to "Auburn A&M". Cue 50/50 Aggie outrage ("sip coach doesn't know who we are") and pride ("even our enemies see us as formidable as Alabama, SEC!!!").
  3. Beach volleyball doesn't suck, but I still haven't heard anything about Mosley.
  4. Well, they're not drinking merlot.
  5. Not my only reference point, just a snapshot.
  6. I just looked at Rolling Stone's top 100 list, and Fogerty was roughly #30 of the American entries. That's crazy.
  7. I'm not sure I've ever seen him in a Top 5 list. Maybe I'm just wearing blinders, but mostly I see the usuals like Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Tom Petty, etc. All worthy of the praise, but I'd put Fogerty up against just about all of them.
  8. I think it IS a mental health issue, as in "the American gun fetish is a mental health issue".
  9. I mentioned it here already, but the singer is a friend's cousin. He found out they were in town an hour after they played LOL. I've watched some of their videos -- weird genre, but they can play. They must stick out like a sore thumb in their home stomping grounds of Brooklyn.
  10. Correct. Pfizer submitted an EUA in late November.
  11. Badass. USDA Grade A badass. Most who currently serve would surely agree. Some of our leadership who didn't . . . won't.
  12. I've almost killed 2 bicyclists running stop signs in the past 3 days, so this hits close to home. Mesa & Far West, holla.
  13. I don't have an opinion on Fogerty's self-fuckedness, but holy smokes he has to be the most underrated of all the great American songwriters.
  14. The Purdie Shuffle. Also used by Jeff Porcaro:
  15. Not the worst lie I've seen in a bunker.
  16. This might be the most fucking nuts thing I've ever seen in sports. I don't expect us to win but damn, they have stretched it out beyond reason.
  17. Holy shit, these guys are not giving up.
  18. Holy shit, what a putt, Ben!
  19. I posted this earlier. The response was "they've done it this way for almost 50 years". Dumb, and not at all in the spirit of sport.
