Scott Dolan

Old, angry George. Can't stomach it. Carlin was a genius, but he should be in the Guiness Book Of World Records as the man who went from the funniest cat on the planet, to the least funniest cat on the planet...

This x 1,000. Moral stances and whatnot, blah, blah, blah... Laughing at a funny line is in absolutely no way an endorsement of the person who recites it. Miles hit women. Strangest thing being that when I found that out, I immediately went back and listened to Kind Of Blue. It still sounded just as good as I remember.

Yeah, but it's still just shy of completely broken.

This. Easier said than done, I suppose. But this, nonetheless.

Went through it as a kid when my parents split. So I don't think highly of it. I can't imagine my wife and I splitting up. Especially having put in nearly 28 years. Wish you the best, my friend.

That is true, Scott, but I discovered, first-hand, Cosby's not-so-admirable side over 50 years ago. Since then, I have often seen it exposed and heard it discussed among jazz performers who personally experienced his hypocrisy. It so happens, that I also have a female business contact who was among his rape victims. So, I guess I answered my own question as to why this man's behavior did not surprise me. That's fair enough, brother. As I mentioned before, innocent until proven guilty, but taking everything the general public knows into account, it certainly doesn't look good for Cosby.

Is that at your Maine location, or your NY location?

Yeah, and ain't it just awesome to get all geared up to go out and shovel only to be sweating your ass off 10 minutes later? I definitely sympathize. I wouldn't wish shoveling two feet of snow on anyone. I consider myself to be in pretty damned good shape, but it's back-breaking no matter how good of shape you're in. Sounds like it's the drier stuff, though. That's one saving grace…though not much of one...

I can't stomach the "Weather" Channel, but it's looking like your boy ended up being wrong on his forecast. Everything else I agree with him on, though.

WKCR, even...

Comfort music. Like comfort food, it's no implication that there isn't anything else. Better, worse, or otherwise. Does anything beat mac-n-cheese? Well, of course. But nothing beats a good old-fashioned stand-by... Perception. Reality. good night, and good luck...

Sounds like your average grocery store in Florida right before a Hurricane makes landfall. Afterwards tends to much worse, though...

Hard to believe we've barely had an inch of total accumulation so far this season here in mid Missouri. I don't mind snow, but two to three feet is nothing to mess around with. Stay safe up there, folks!!

I've said elsewhere that he needs to be kicked out of the league as he needs a serious and powerful wake up call before he ruins what's left of his life.

Average NFL fans are like kittens chasing a laser pointer around on a wall.

I don't. All signs are leaning towards the NFL finding the Patriots did nothing to break any rules. That may be a smoke show, but I doubt it. I kind of look at it akin to not calling pass interference on an uncatchable ball. Is it still a penalty if it had absolutely no bearing on the outcome? Well, using Larry's logic it is. It was still an attempt to cheat. But, in certain cases you have to look at it and say, well it really made no difference, so why are we going to make a big deal out of it?

Severe?! Are you being serious here? The little dog and pony show the NFL has carried out in order to keep themselves relevant during the two week wasteland between the championship games and the Superbowl is "severe"?

All I'm saying, Chris, is that we fortunately live in a country where you have to present a hell of a lot more than "it doesn't surprise me" as evidence of criminal activity. While that in no way assures justice, it certainly puts stumbling blocks in the way of simple miscarriages of justice.

One AB compared to 30 official minutes of gameplay? C'mon, Larry. If this had resulted in anything showing a positive outcome, then maybe I could join in with the manufactured outrage that the media has whipped the unsuspecting public into. Until then, I'm granting this Three-card Monte the weight it deserves. Which is none.

Please... Isn't cheating supposed to give you an advantage? They scored more points in the second half, using "properly" inflated balls, than the Colts did the entire game. Much ado about absolutely nothing.

I'm willing to bet not all 26 are legit, but the fact that he settled with a previous accuser several years ago all but assures there's a bit of fire to go along with that smoke. Either way, the law of the land is still innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Therefore I am reserving my judgement.

Dopiest non-story in the history of professional sports.

On a related note, the steam engine is also finding its comeback difficult.

No, the price is reasonable these days. I have absolutely no quarrel with that. My problem was with you and Daniel insinuating that SHM CDs rip easier, so therefore they are more error free than standard CDs. Well, you seem to be insinuating it, but Daniel has explicitly stated it. Now, if that wasn't your intent and I am completely misreading your statements, I apologize. That's on me. I guess the other confusing aspect being that you stated that EAC takes longer to read "problem data" as though that was an issue exclusive to EAC. That's the way all ripping software works. Now, as to the WHY, I've read many different reasons, but have never found consensus. I mean, why can I pull out a random disc and get a 20x rip while another gives me a painfully slow 4x rip? Hell, I had a three disc set where two of the discs ripped in a flash, and the third chugged along for nearly ten minutes! Very bizarre. But certainly observable on any audio ripping program.

Actually, it's folks who buy into nonsense because they heard it was true from someone who presented them with absolutely no evidence that it was, and don't have the time or the desire to investigate its veracity before passing it on to others as given fact.
