  1. Screw all four remaining teams. I'll be rooting for entertaining games and two meteor strikes.
  2. Season 2 was completely implausible with some terrible acting to boot, but the worst part is that Serinda Swan never got nekkid. All that said, I'm in for season 3.
  3. If I was to add Waipi'o Valley to your list and drop the National Park (we're going to devote a full day just to seeing the Park), would it all be do-able in one day? (We'd be based out of Hilo in this particular instance.)
  4. Pretty much agree with everything you wrote. Things happen. Fan should have checked on Clark to see if she was okay. I think the fan probably would/could have avoided the collision had she not been filming, though.
  5. The idiot fan was videoing while she was running onto the court.
  6. Thanks. In looking at some websites (including the one GenXer linked), it appears now that only 4WD vehicles are allowed on the portion of the road above the visitors center. If true, that might be enough to get me to spring the extra $$ for a Jeep.
  7. Guidebook (Big Island Revealed) strongly recommends renting a 4WD on the Big Island. We haven't yet nailed down the exact attractions we want to visit (aside from Volcanoes NP and a helicopter tour), so I'm not sure at this point whether 4WD is really necessary. Was wondering whether those who have visited the Big Island found 4WD to be necessary and/or helpful.
  8. Vegas from about Oct. 15 to May 15, and then somewhere at elevation (e.g., Mt. Charleston area) during the hot months would be a pretty nice situation, IMO.
  9. Well, yeah, it's the Clippers. Did you really expect something different?
  10. I have not assigned an order to this list. It was fucking hard enough paring it down to only 10 players: Jordan Lebron Wilt Kareem Bird Duncan Magic Kobe Oscar Dream It was difficult to leave Russell, West, and some others off.
  11. He drew a flag against Green Bay earlier this year when he was still in-bounds.
  12. Went out doing what he loved. If you gotta go (and we all do at some point), that's the way to do it. RIP to Mr. Sonnier. As you said, Hulla, he was the real deal.
  13. Which models are we looking at there? I've been on a bit of a SAK kick lately. In addition to the alox Bantam upthread a bit, I picked up a Compact last week. I had resisted buying one for quite a while because of the price -- you can get much better bang for the buck with other models, IMO. But the tool set in the Compact has always intrigued me, and I finally bought one recently with a gift card.
  14. I-dentical! Yep, Cafe Beignet is pretty close in my experience, which was a while back. But if the lines are short enough, Du Monde is still a fun experience for first-timers.
  15. Cannot stop laughing at this photo. Left to right: smarmy smirking attorney; an enraged Trump; Melania look-alike who Trump has undoubtedly banged/attempted to bang. Trump's glowering is the best part
  16. He was pretty believable as an Aryan Brotherhood leader in Shot Caller as well.
  17. An underappreciated gem, IMO.
  18. Bad day at Squaw. https://www.yahoo.com/news/searches-under-way-following-avalanche-193736273.html
  19. It was that way for some people at Tahoe Palisades f/k/a Squaw Valley today, unfortunately. RIP to the poor person who died in the 'lanche. KT-22 is no joke. https://www.yahoo.com/news/searches-under-way-following-avalanche-193736273.html
