Our neighborhood is full of oak trees with acorns, so full of them that every day when I leave for work I hear them clunking off of
peoples cars. Also our across the street neighbor swept all the acorns from their driveway and sidewalk into the street and our crazy neighbor took them to task for it.
Anyway all the chipmunks in our neighborhood are very fat and happy including the albino chipmunk who is a harbinger of prosperity. It is going to be a very good winter for chipmunks in somerville.
How come no one is saying private insurance companies currently have death panels, when they throw ill people off insurance or don’t let terminal individuals try experimental therapies.
Why does anyone listen to Sarah Palin. How can anyone not love obama?
Did anyone ever yell “You Lie” at a Bush speech to congress-because he actually did lie!
Did anyone else hope Obama was going to say we are going to fund this healthcare plan by ending Iraq and Afganistan.
Obama makes me proud to be an American-the jackass republicans holding up paper are idiots. Baloo and Paisely love obama too. It is so nice that he is directly addressing all the dumb criticisms directly!!!
The republicans are really looking bad.
I really hope this health plan goes through.
So all this misinformation spread by Repulicans about healthcare and socialism makes me think-politics has become the WWE. For example instead of having a debate on the issue that over 46 million Americans are uninsured and in 3 years a monthly payment for insurance for an indivdiaul has gone from $350 to $900, they say talking about death with your doctor is unAmerican and will have others making decisions about your death. They spread rumors like Obama is going to brainwash our kids to his socialist ways if he addresses them. Anyone know what the Republican Healthcare plan is????
Oh-it’s OK as it is, as long as I have healthcare. A discussion has begun, but politics and stupidity is getting in the way. Everyone deserves to have healthcare that is affordable, even if they are stupid. I am starting to believe that the people who elected George Bush are more stupid than I thought. Chaney is also no better. The dialogue should continue and everyone should get healthcare!!!
RAW is WAR
Not that I have watched the whole movie, but I can’t believe it took me 25 years to see it, and I can’t believe how bad footloose is. Saw pars of it on cable tonight.
The answers are no.
The questions
Can Kevin Bacon Dance?
Is there a plot?
Did people every buy this story?
In this not disjointed?
Were kids ever like this?
Could a movie look more dated?
Do people actually really fight at a dance, win 2 on 5 fights, knock the 5 out and then just leave them there and go back to the dance?
The answers are yes
The questions
Did they purposely pick the ugliest cast ever?
Was this the worst soundtrack ever?
Was this the dumbest movie ever?
Did this really become a play?
Did Kevin Bacon’s career survive?
Did someone actually get paid to write this?
Do women (who are the reverends daughter) get beat up by their boyfriend and not report it to the police and then just walk around with bruises on their face? (unfortunately the answer to this is yes).
People who don’t signal (ie everyone in Boston)
emails that just say “thank you”
Signs that are not big enough to read, especially bill boards
People who don’t take yard sales signs down after their yard sale is over
When have we ever had such abundance of Jewish professional athletes in Boston and they are all good. Casey Kotchman, Kevin Yokilis and now Edelman from the patriots. I love Edelman, because I don’t even know if he is Jewish, but I also did not know that he was on the Patriots. He seems to play a position we have covered with Wes Welker, he also looks like him and plays like him. But we have Edelman. If he becomes great we can say things like Montana to Rice, and Brady to Edelman or Rice, Rashad, Moss and Edelman.
The possibilities are endless!
The authors don’t even have the integrity to proof read it or have someone who is a baseball fan proofread it. On page 212 talking about game 7 of the 2003 ALCS, it says Nick Johnson hit a double off the green monster. I should not even have to tell anyone of the error in this. Especially in the context of this book and when 2 pages before they are talking about how the World Series logo is being painted on the grass at fenway.
In addition, Joe Torre did not write this book, he is quoted in this book. The book is not in the first person and the mistake mentioned above makes me wonder about all the facts in the book. Also, Torre seems very upset in 2003 when David Wells did not even read the book he supposedly wrote. Lump Verducci and Torre in with Ben Mezrich and the guy from Oprah and there is no integrity in writing anymore.
I was in a bar tonight eating dinner with Courtney and the Red Sox game was on. (this is OK Dave) and Youkilis charged the mound. All of a sudden this drunk guy popped up next to me yelling at the TV. He said, “Baseball players do not know how to fight. They need me out there. I used to play hockey.” He went on for 20 minutes about how pathetic Youkilis was in a fight and how in hockey goalies used to fight before everyone became sissies. And how he played hockey and the red sox really needed him in that fight. He also sold me Pedroia is the only one on the sox he would want on his side during a fight. He also said they really needed Brad Mills in the middle of the pile.
Most exciting Red Sox game this year.
On Thursday August 13, WBCN will become an all sports radio station. Though it has not been a good station in about 12-15 years. BCN was THE Boston radio- station that we all grew up with and was awesome in my youth. Amanda interned there and played softball for the Ball Busters coached by Tank. She batted against Tom Scholtz of Boston, was ranked on by Mark Parenteau and Sam Kinison in better days for both of them.
We used to look forward to the Big Matress and Mishigas, Ken Sheltons Lunch time and fake song. Tami Heidi, Carter Allen, Oedipus (although I never really liked him). and eve Nic Carter. They were great. While it is very sad, we proably should have been sad 15 years ago, when they became just like everyone else. Bringing all the old DJs back and replaying old programming makes me remember how cool radio used to be.
After listening for 2 days, I remember listening to radio because of the DJ no matter what they played. I used to stay up late listening to radio, just to hear what the dj said. Also when DJs are allowed to pick their own music, the music is much better. Today they played Billy Bragg, Roadrunner by Jonathan Richman 3 times, Sun Volt, etc. Much cooler stuff then when they are programmed. It is truly sad, but radio really died long ago. In 1981 the Kinks released around the dial, who knew it would be so profound in 2009.
