Mark Bowen?
I love his stuff. Guests of the Ayatolah was something else.
It included a line that made feel proud of the America I grew up in and ashamed of the country it has become.
When the Iranians were releasing the Americans, one of the Iranians who’d tortured one of the I think, Marinre Guards, offered to let the Marine beat him on his bare feet with a piece of rubbe hose. The Marine said he looked at the guy and said, “I’m an American. We don’t do that.”
Only in Africa would overthrowing a man like Mobutu lead to greater suffering.
Jimmy Howard making some nice stops for the Ice Lions.
I just finished Miles Davis’s autobiography, which was insane and entertaining, and I recently finished book three of Karl Ove Knausgaard’s My Struggle. Good enough to make me keep going to book four, and worth needing to tell people it’s nothing like that other My Struggle written by you know whom.
Trying to complete Black Swan Green (David Mitchell) … not quite as good as the rest of his, for me.
I don’t usually post pics, but now that I’m back from the bar I’m taking entropy’s admonition to heart. Why aren’t there more pictures of Jennifer Lawrence around here?
Colin Cowherd ads drive me beyond the brink of insanity.
Single play coming up…
Double play coming up…
boo
Triple play coming up…
Go Royals.

Should be plenty of time to clear the smoke from teh morning’s futbol.
Doesn’t that image re-enforce the danger to horses that equestrianism presents?
Both horse and rider were ok. And eventing isn’t the place to look for danger to the horses. Racing first, but that’s mainly due to breeding and the age at which they start racing. Hunters second, because they’re concerned with aesthetics rather than function, so they do horrible stuff like leave side reins on in the stall to fuck up muscle distribution.
Just curious, as I know nothing about horses.
That was a thoughtful and informative reply.
Not fox hunters. Hunter/Jumper is a sort of equestrian competition. It is based on fox hunting, but the separation is far enough away that it’s kind of a football/rugby type split.

Probably the most obscure thing I’m talking about there is the side reins in the stall. Side reins are an excellent training tool when used properly. When you lunge a horse (basically putting the horse through their paces on a long, adjustable line) side reins mimic the action of the riders hands, asking the horse to bend slightly to the inside, stretch down through their back, and engage their midsection and hindquarters for a powerful, graceful stride. This promotes muscle growth along the top line of the horse, from the base of the neck, along the back, and through the hindquarters. When the horse is not moving, side reins serve as a tether, pulling the horse’s head towards their chest, with no dynamic resistance or feedback. This promotes muscle growth at the top of the neck, but also promotes the horse holding their head in such a way that it looks like they are carrying themselves using their core muscles. It’s the difference between using resistance bands in a workout and wearing resistance bands while watching TV.
One more thing. Fox hunters are crazy and pretty damn fun. They mostly don’t hunt foxes anymore, at least in the U.S. There’s a pre-dragged trail for the horses to follow, and it’s basically just a crazy ass run at high speed across whatever gets in the way. Especially for the opening hunt there’s a fair amount of drinking before and after. They’re the equestrian version of that crazy friend that you always had fun with, but were never sure if you would wake up in one piece in the same state…or country.
I’d like baseball to introduce something akin to a penalty shot.
Evening folks.
I hate when they close the doors on bars. I can’t anything to drink.
In all seriousness, I really don’t remember much about entropy, in the technical sense. Too long since I had a hard science course.
In my soft science like brain I always remeber it from Yeats’ “The Second Coming”.
Things fall apart, the center cannot hold…
Ahhh. It makes sense to me know. Sort of akin to military commander working without fresh and accurate observations, he reorients himself slower, his decisions become less accurate, and his actions become less effective, eventually leading to losing the battle and/or war.

I figured this would be in Sexy Friday. It’s from Emily Ratajkowski’s Twitter with the question “Debbie Harry Haloween?”

I can’t find the Alison Brie pic with the photoshopped head. Here is another one just because
