And yet, we all know how great Mac is....

Johnny, WTF??? The Mariners released Brett Boone! I mean, is there something we haven't heard about his attitude??? I know 231 is a low batting average, but he was still on track for 14 homers and 70 R.B.I.'s, which used to be pretty good numbers for a 2nd baseman....why eat 4 million in salary to have him not play for the second half???

Hey Al, (w)ho is 8 and 2 right now????

Man, that's kinda disturbing! Bet it looks like the guy's ex girlfriend eidt...The smilies are back! Some of them were gone for a few minutes....

I know, I know people could just click the link.....

They more or less got Yoda right though....

Well, Amazon says Bedlam was from 1946, allmovie sez 1945....sigh....

How are the Val Lewton movies with Boris Karloff? ← I have only seen Body Snatcher,(Just checked allmovie.com, and all 3 Karloff/Lewton films were made in 1945!) but it is an excellent film!(My favorite Karloff film is the little known "The Walking Dead") Karloff, is just mesmerizing, just amazingly creepy! Here is a blurb from allmovie about Body Snatcher, but see the film, don't go there and have the ending spoiled! Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi were given top billing in the Val Lewton-produced The Body Snatcher, but the film's protagonist is played by Henry Daniell. A brilliant 18th century London surgeon, Daniell can only make his humanitarian medical advances by experimenting on cadavers, which is strictly illegal. Karloff plays a Uriah Heep-type cabman who is secretly a grave robber, providing corpses for Daniell's research.

Kenny Rogers is a pussy, and not in a good way...He makes Kevin Brown seem like a good guy! No wonder he is so very angry with his poor record and all..Oh wait, he has an ERA under 2.50, and is 9 and 3! And is a 40 year old still healthy enough(When not breaking his own bones) to pitch...he should be thanking his lucky stars to still be a major leaguer, and having his best year ever....can't stand a cameraman shooting him from a distance??? PUSSY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't pitch in a big game because of a minor broken bone? PUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSYYYYYYYYY:angry:

Funny, I always thought it was Shake-a-lot...but I could tell he was singin' Taurus... My name is shake zula, the mic rula, the old-schoola; you wanna trip? I'll bring it to ya. Frylock and I'm on top; rock you like a cop. Meatwad you're up next with your knock-knock Meatwad make the money see. Meatwad get the honeys G. Driving in my car, living like a star, ice on my fingers and toes and i'm a Taurus. Cause we are the Aqua Teens, make the homeys say ho and the girleys want to scream.

Yep!

Red Sox need to thank the Braves right about now! Andruw Jones has 22 homers! Braves are a minor league team these days, but seem to have a lot of talent on the farm.... Trivial fact of the day...did you know that in his last year, Dave Kingman hit 34 homers, and drove in 95 R.B.I.'s???(only hit .210 , but still amazing no one offered him a contract for '87) I always loved to watch him hit...not that he did that often....but when they left the park, they really left the park....

Man, it makes me sad to hear that Borders has cut way back on their jazz selection...When I worked for them in the late 90's, even with a 25% discount, a $300 tab (We got 30 bucks a month as book credit, which I almost never used for books) I was forever having to leave stuff behind....we always got interesting cds perhaps only one cd, but it was the only place in town you would find a Adrian Rollini cd....Online is fine, up to a point, but I always stumble across cds just browsing, which is harder online..and if you like the ancient school jazz, often times online they only mention the title of the cd, no tracks listings, no years, no nothing.....

Lots of good advice here.....I too have had back problems...on and off for the past 20 years(Never take an old intake manifold off from the front of the car, instead of the side ) If you need to see a doc, don't get discouraged if you come across a stupid orthopedic surgeon. I went to one complaining of back pain back in '99 that I had had for weeks(injured it again moving book cases at Borders)when I asked about an MRI, he said that there was no point, even if they found a herniated disc....why they have done MRI's on people who don't have back pain, and some of them have bulging discs! Had to find another doctor to at least send me to physical therapists. Did that a few times, and after not making any real progress, one of the therapists had me sit in a chair with my chin on my chest, and try to bring each leg parallel to the ground. Well, one leg would, the other only came up about 6 inches...she said most likely I did have a herniated disc. So, went to the 3rd orthopedic surgeon(The docs and therapists are all suspicious of "young" people complaining of bad backs cuz of all the fakers out there) and finally got an MRI, and the disc was bad enough that the last resort was the next one, surgery. IF you need it, as mentioned before, it really isn't that bad...I was painting the walls in the living room 4 days later (Couldn't really sit for a week) Of course, one wants surgery as a last resort, so buy some of those big gel ice packs at Walgreens, or WalMart, they work wonders. Get some P.T. as well and watch how you sit, pick things up(You can put something like 1000 pounds of pressure on a disc bending the wrong way, thats why picking a pencil off the floor can wreck a back) and even get out of bed...role onto your side, and let your legs off the edge of the bed first and you pop up. Lifting your back off the bed first is no good for it... Good luck!!!

Wheat chex is probably my fav these days....With the "low" sugar Frosted Flakes a nice treat...I like Puffed wheat, but.....if you eat too much of it(No calories to speak of) your urine smells like the cereal....

Man, ate this as much as I could convince my parents to buy it(not that often) Anyone eat this? Remember the pink milk??? Don't remember them being flakes though, were there more than one type of Pink Panther cereal?

Sure looks like Miami to me!

That number seems impossibly high, but no matter what the number is, the fucker should have been stopped(one way or another) many years ago....Gotta love his former lawyer as well.... Molester Suspected in 36,000 Abuse Cases By KIM CURTIS, Associated Press Writer Sat Jun 18, 8:39 PM ET SAN FRANCISCO - Despite being arrested at least nine times for molesting boys, Dean Arthur Schwartzmiller managed to avoid lengthy prison terms, coach youth football, move in with another convicted sex offender — and be named by authorities as one of the most prolific child molesters in history. Schwartzmiller's criminal record began 35 years ago, but he never registered as a sex offender and spent just 12 years in prison. In his time on the outside, police suspect he molested children as many as 36,000 times in several states, Mexico and Brazil. Wily, charismatic and "smarter than heck," is how James Kevan, one of his defense lawyers in the mid-1970s, described Schwartzmiller on Friday. "He could write up legal documents better than most lawyers." Often defending himself in court, Schwartzmiller got two of his four convictions overturned, even though the Idaho Supreme Court called him a repeat offender who "uses his intelligence to take advantage of the weak and oppressed and those who are in need." With Schwartzmiller, 63, being held without bail on charges involving two San Jose boys, police and the FBI are trying to retrace his movements over the last 30 years. A search of Schwartzmiller's San Jose home turned up spiral-bound notebooks with notes on more than 36,000 encounters with children, in categories such as "Blond Boys," "Cute Boys" and "Boys who say no" — together with codes appearing to indicate how he abused them, San Jose Police Lt. Scott Cornfield said. Messages left for Schwartzmiller's public defender last week were not returned. In court records released Friday, authorities said Schwartzmiller lived for five years with another convicted sex offender whom he met in jail — Freddie Everts, 34. The pair allegedly lured boys to their home with gifts including skateboards, video games and a motor bike. Everts said Schwartzmiller claimed to be dying from an undisclosed illness and was keeping notes on his "encounters with boys" for a manuscript, according to court records. Everts is in jail on charges he failed to register as a sex offender. Kevan — the former attorney who was later disbarred — after having drug problems, he says — said he knew Schwartzmiller as Tim Miller, one of his dozen or so aliases, when they both lived in Mountain Home, Idaho, a small town near the Sawtooth Mountains. When they first met, Schwartzmiller was coaching a youth football team. "I helped him coach," Kevan said. "The parents all thought he was great. No one suspected a thing." In retrospect, there were signs something was wrong — like the time he took the team to a game in Boise, and they "stopped in the desert to do a jock strap check." Kevan said he was not on the bus at the time, and only later realized that Schwartzmiller may have been picking out potential victims. By that point, Schwartzmiller had already been convicted of molesting boys. His record appears to date back to 1970, when he was convicted in Alaska of lewd and lascivious conduct with three teen boys. He was sentenced to two years' probation, then indicted again two years later for molesting another boy — but he apparently fled the state before he could be tried. Over the years, Schwartzmiller was convicted of molestation charges at least four times, but was acquitted once and avoided prosecution on other charges. When he first came to authorities' attention, there were no Megan's Laws or three-strikes laws, and Americans were less aware of the ramifications and the severity of child sexual abuse. He called on Kevan for help when he was facing trial in Idaho in the 1970s on charges he molested two 13-year-old boys. "I said, 'You've got to tell me what's going on.' He told me everything," Kevan said — outlining a history of molesting boys from Alaska down the West Coast. Even then, Schwartzmiller had been keeping notebooks of his victims, with "a couple hundred" boys' names, followed by numbers that described each boy's anatomy, Kevan said. "The investigators didn't know what they meant. They didn't even take them," Kevan said. "I told him to get rid of them." Mountain Home Police Capt. Dave Pursell, who was on the force at the time, said he had no information about the notebooks. But he remembers Schwartzmiller well. "He brought several suits against the sheriff here, and against the state and against anybody and everybody. In Idaho statutes there's a lot of case law related to Mr. Schwartzmiller." Schwartzmiller spent about two years in prison on the Idaho charges before he appealed his conviction to the Idaho Supreme Court and won in 1978. The following year two 14-year-old boys said he molested them and he fled again — this time to Oregon, where he was arrested again, accused of bringing a boy from Little Rock, Ark., to San Francisco in June 1980. Authorities said Schwartzmiller had forced the boy into prostitution. But the U.S. Attorney's office deferred prosecution to authorities in Idaho, where he served another six years in prison for molesting boys. By that time, Kevan had been disbarred, so he hired another attorney, Lance Churchill, who now works for a real estate company in Boise. "He was famous as one of the best prison lawyers in Idaho," Churchill said. "He was respected because if an inmate needed help in a legal case, he would help them out. If he saw an injustice he would try to help the inmate. He was pretty well-liked out there." In the years after Schwartzmiller was set free in 1987, he was arrested at least four more times for abusing children. He served three more years in Oregon, got out, was repeatedly arrested for violating parole and allegedly abusing other children, won an acquittal in Washington state, and fled rather than face arrest on another warrant in Oregon. Joan Cavagnaro, the deputy prosecutor who tried the Washington case, said she had no doubt about Schwartzmiller's guilt, though she had no evidence like that found in the notebooks. Child abuse cases can be difficult to prosecute, Cavagnaro said, particularly when suspects target victims from troubled homes. "Touching does not leave physical evidence," she said. "So you have one person's word against another and in the context of chaotic, dysfunctional family settings, this makes it a very difficult crime to prove." ___ Associated Press Writers Garance Burke in San Francisco and Curt Woodward in Seattle, and researchers Julie Reed and Susan James, contributed to this story. http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/a...ial_molester_13

WKCR was playing Diamond all morning, and I loved it (but I'm gonna keep that little anecdote in my back pocket for a moment when I'm feeling someone's going overboard in indignation about the violence-loving youth of today...) ← You are so right! I am forever hearing about fisticuffs at the Philharmonic!

Well, if they never get it, Amazon shows 49 used copies for sale.... http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00...9796950-2331015

I see NOTHING humorous in this situation. Michael (Once again)got away with playing with children's genitals. Children who will grow up scarred. They may never get over it. Perhaps they will continue the cycle, and molest other children themselves. Wonderful. More children WILL get molested by Michael in the coming years, child molesters never stop. In the news, you often hear about guys in their 70's still fucking little kids. Because the system does NOT work. I'm not glad about that......

I used aloha bob a few years back, it worked pretty well....seems more expensive than I remembered http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...ftware&n=507846 ummm....ignore what I just posted!!! I just read the reviews on amazon, they hate it!!!! Must have changed something, sorry!!!
