There are few 14 year olds who would object in that manner to being press-ganged into such an organization. Especially when those who objected tended to end up dead.

So, I was all set to bitch about MTV Films making a movie based on the Friday Night Lights TV show

Because that show was based on a movie that is undoubtedly better than whatever MTV Films churns out, but then I read that Peter Berg (who directed the original) said this about the script:

“[Katims] has come up with a really great storyline that parallels what happened to Mike Leach, one of my heroes, a coach at Texas Tech who was unjustly fired and unjustly accused of mistreating a player with a concussion, which was proven to not have been the case. He’s now at Washington State getting ready for what I think will be a great redemption story,” Berg explained. “It would be critical that we get Kyle and Connie [onboard for the film] — we anchored the show around them — and then bring in Riggins, Tyra, Lyla and all other characters as we could get them. But the idea is to really revolve it around the coach.”

This is all about Viacom (who owns CBS and MTV) taking a shot a ESPN, and I applaud it.

There actually have been 3 breakaways all leading to goals, by Toews (on a penalty shot), Sharp, and Hossa. Not too many goalies can stop those guys in alone

The other goal came on a shot when the goalie was screened by a 6’8" dude. So although Biron has been awful (Lundqvist has a well deserved night off) it’s not inexcusable.

cool story bro--

in August I was at the doctor’s office for a checkup. I showed up around 12:30 to get all the forms and stuff filled out, only to see a sign on the receptionist desk saying it would open back up at 12:45. So I took a seat. there was only one other person in the waiting room, a county woman (by the sounds of it) who was bitching on her phone for the world to hear about how the cable company screwed her out of ten dollars. Then walk in four old people. At 12:44, an overweight boy who couldn’t have been past 7th grade. He saw the sign, checked his watch, and waited at the window. When they opened if up, we all formed a line behind him. His mother comes in and asks the woman who was on her phone if the boy had cut in line. “In frunna evvybody” she said, and shook her head disapprovingly. Literally everyone in the room was shocked to hear this. He looked crestfallen—he was so distraught. He was so upset he had to leave the room, and wouldn’t come back in it as long as she was in there. After he left, the old people took up new seats on either side of the county woman and began to talk across her, about “that po-ah boy” and how unfair it was of her. As if she wasn’t there. It was the most roundabout way of calling someone out that I’ve ever seen.

Cool story bra....

years ago when in Siberia a group of 4 teenagers, with beers in their hands, tried to cut the line at a food stand of 20 people in front of a short middle-aged father and his young son near the front. just walked up next to him and acted like they causally stopped there for a conversation amongst themselves and then just eased in. After the move was completed I lay my hands on one of their shoulders, turn him, and start bitching in Russian. I was so ticked that three sentences in I switched to English to adequately vent…sprinkling in a few “Even if you can’t understand the words coming out of my you know damn well what I am saying.” Things start to get tense when a cop care pulls up. Teenagers disappear, I turn and start counting windows on the awful soviet apartment block to my right. Cop walks up and stops beside me…taps me on shoulder…stomach sinks. But then I turn and am greeted with “Alo Phocion!”…huge smile…bear hug. All jaws hit the ground. You see, that cop gave me a ride home from the bar the week before (Not Kidding…wanted to ask all about Britany Spears, Micheal Jordan, etc.). From then on I was a minor celebrity whenever I passed that shashlik stand.

I’m also the guy that blocks the lane that you damn well knew was merging for the last 1/2 mile before you decided to pass 40 lined up cars and squeeze at the front.

Here's the thing

From my reading of the story, the kid did nothing wrong.

He walks in at 12:44. There is nobody standing at the window, and they’ll be back in one minute. It’s entirely possible the people sitting in the waiting room have already checked in.

He didn’t “cut in line”. He just didn’t think it through the way an adult would.

True Story

My first St. Patty’s in the south, some local friends agreed to go out to the bar. They wanted to meet up at 10. I said that’s OK, I normally start at 8.

Then we realized we had an AM/PM miss understanding. I had to explain that there was nothing wrong with me.

I never thought people would drink all day for college football but not on St. Patty’s.

Self reply - an Irish poem

Why Worry? In life there are only two things to worry about:
Whether you are well,
or whether you are sick.

Now if you are well,
You have nothing to worry about.

And if you are sick,
You only have two things to worry about:
Whether you get better,
or whether you die.

If you get better,
You have nothing to worry about.

And if you die,
You only have two things to worry about:
Whether you go to heaven,
or whether you go to hell Now if you go to heaven,
You have nothing to worry about.
And if you go to hell, You’ll be too busy shaking hands with Your friends,
that you won’t have time to worry.
So Why Worry?

I suppose I see the term “Mentally Disturbed” as one that indicates a defense to the “crime” (be it legal or social) that was committed. As a result, his clear premeditation leads me to think he has little defense in the way of “lack of mental capacity”.

He is clearly disturbed, though. Just not in the way I thought you meant

UPDATE: The Minnesota State High School League released an advisory from Executive Director Dave Stead, regarding Shayegan, a little while ago. Here it is, in part:

On February 9, 2012, Shayegan was seen in St. Cloud, MN, and he is now known to be in Minneapolis today, February 10, 2012.

Sherwin Shayegan is known to cause a direct threat to the health and safety of student athletes and others. Therefore, in my capacity as the Executive Director of the Minnesota State High School League and on behalf of the member schools of the Minnesota State High School League, I am immediately banning Sherwin Shayegan from all MSHSL regular season and post-season MSHSL-sponsored athletic and fine arts activities.

I have attached the notices sent to the member schools in North Dakota, Oregon, and Montana. A similar notice was sent to schools in the state of Washington.

If Sherwin Shayegan is found to be in your school or school community, I suggest that you immediately take action as appropriate to address his attendance at your events, contact the local police department, and notify the League office regarding his sighting.

Turns out, my daughter had placed one of Loki’s toys inside her Cookie Monster toy (This particular toy has a back pack) and Loki wanted that toy, but was restrained enough not to destroy said Cookie Monster to get it. Him licking her face and staring the toy bin was his way of saying “IT’S RIGHT FUCKING THERE, JUST GET IT FOR ME” and she was amusing herself with his frustration. My wife finally gave him his toy and he is bounding around the house like he hit the lottery.

They argue that the kids are fussy as shit because they try to communicate and are frustrated by their inability to get their point across. Folks kept rephrasing and rephrasing until they knew what we meant, and it is said that we were more than manageable throughout that age.

I feel like I need a list of rules for dressing well.

Like MikeLew’s ladyfriend made for him.

by Attie Hat on Feb 17, 2012 12:36 AM EST up reply actions

Done.

Well, sorta. All the advice is good, but it kinda assumes you’re getting dressed up for a crowd that would appreciate some old-school shit (at one point they mention shawl lapels. If you’re not part of the charity gala circuit, no).

10 commandments to get you started off the top of my head; they’re more like guidelines that won’t ever steer you wrong but might limit your options:

1) Know what you need to wear to the occasion. If you are confused, do not consult Yahoo Questions for an answer, find a style blog/site. Choose one of the more conservative options out there.

2) Colors: they should either contrast or match. Contrast means you google image search “color wheel” and if the two colors are opposite of each other, they probably look good together (red and green, blue and orange, etc.). Match means they look the same—not necessarily perfectly identical, just not enough to confuse the eye. E.g., navy and light blue are fine together because they look different. Navy and slightly-different-shade-of-navy are not ok.

3) Formal wear: here’s the super simple can’t go wrong version: suits should be all of the following: 2 button, center vent, peak lapel, and ensure there’s no whackiness going on with slim lapels or anything.

4) Sizing: ask an employee to measure you. If one isn’t available,
Jacket: when worn, doesn’t create vertical lines (too loose) or horizontal lines (too tight) and sleeves that end 1/2" from the base of your hand when your arms hang loose
Shirt: if you can’t tell if it’s a dress shirt or a button down, look at the sizing and the look of the shirt: dress shirts are always sized by neck size and sleeve length, and aren’t naturally wrinkly. If the collar feels too tight, it’s too tight, period. No sense buying clothes that don’t feel good. stick your finger in the collar; if you can’t fit 1 finger, way too tight; if you can fit 3+, too loose. Button collars are fine; if you have collar stays, spread are fine. Sleeves should hit the base of your palm (barrel cuff is fine; French cuff if you have cufflinks). Pants: put them on and look at your pockets: if they “pucker out” like ears, they’re too tight. Lenth-wise, they should just hit the top of your shoe, and there should be little if any break (wear them on your waist/hips where they are most comfy). As for the eternal cuffs/pleats debate, just make sure that if pleats, then cuffs; if no pleats, then no cuffs. I’d recommend pleatts/cuffs for suits, and (assuming you’re younger), no pleats/no cuffs for nonsuit pants (ones you would wear business casual or with a blazer/sportscoat).

5) For the love of God, soak up your pride, find a gay guy or girl and ask them what to do. DON’T put on something and ask “is this okay?,” because then they might say “yes” out of a desire not to offend you. Let them do the work. If it’s a decent store, they know what they’re doing more than you.

Sposed to be SEC

by Old South on Feb 17, 2012 12:55 AM EST up reply actions 5 recs

Oops, one last thing

6) shoes. Basic rule is that the shoes should always be darker than the suit. For a black, grey, or charcoal suit, wear black shoes. For earthy colors, wear brown. For navy, look at the darkness of the suit and the darkness of the shoes. Match your belt to your shoes; it doesn’t have to be identical if it’s not super formal (any shade of brown belt will go with any shade of brown shoes), as long as you don’t wear black for one and brown for the other (racist imo).

I'd personally say notch lapels are a bit more flexible, but that's personal taste.

It’s also worth it to talk to a tailor if you’re buying off the rack; most guys will fit suits okay, and getting it tailored is definitely worth it. Also, make sure your watch band matches the belt/shoes.

Well there is an Applebees AND an Olive Garden nearby.

Manhattan is fun to visit, but unless I was fuck off rich, I wouldn’t want to live there. A lot more purchasing power in the south per dollar earned.

In one of my tax classes, we had a table charting purchasing power compared with attorney salaries in different cities. About a $70,000 salary in ATL is equivalent in purchasing power to the $160,000 starting point in NYC, and you typically get paid more than the $70,000.
