Identical run. Goalie, standing on his head. Empty net game winner, shanked.

Re: A Friendly Correction for those Man-Haters who Delve to be Single

I am watching a George Romero movie called "Land of the Dead." Couple points- first when describing a zombie movie in 2014 it is redundant to note that the zombies are "flesh-eating."

Second, the star sees one zombie start to communicate, and then give orders. If you see something like that, if Planet of the Apes has taught us anything, you shoot the one developing leadership potential. For some reason the star just takes note of it.

why is this postdifferent from all others?

For the Jews: my kid is doing birthright in a few weeks- I tell the mom both sides have an interest in not harming American Jews- but wtf do I know? Anyone with experience with trips to the homeland during times of increased tension?

And one of the three Jewish kids who was killed was a dual citizen.

The Palestinian and the Israeli were living as if natives. I'm talking about a bus load of kids who will likely be kept far away from anything.

Re: A Friendly Correction for those Man-Haters who Delve to be Single

oh, and I need to bug you guys for another thing- the old ball and chain is now a minister in some interweb thing so she can marry her cousin to the woman's lady. trying to work out a ceremony is challenging. Any seemingly wise quotes about true love or whatever to toss in to get the missus through breaking her marrying cherry?

I do, but it’s from 1 Corinthians and I’m guessing The Rev. Mrs. Chinaski is planning to be off-script vis-à-vis the New Testament.

I was at a gay wedding once and the minister read some quote about how it is right for a man to lie with a man. I asked the couple if they'd like us to find anything like that. Short answer no quotes from a book that has other quotes about how they're going to hell. I suppose Mein Kampf is out as source material too.
