Pro Bowl

Ok, whatever.. the Pro Bowl.

Did you know there are actually Pro Bowl Cheerleaders?

Here's one.

I only have one comment with respect to DeflateGate and that is when in hell are we going to stop adding the word "gate" to every goddamn scandal ever? Most of you were kids when Nixon's bumblers got caught in the Watergate hotel. Oh wait, so was I. OK whatever, too young to remember or care is the point.

I wish it had been called the "WaterTits" hotel.

11 I can't take my eyes off of that fleur de lis...

Side note : the only Pro game I've ever attended was the first game at the newly re-opened Superdome after Katrina. First game in the new stadium, Exhibition game. I forget who they played, but NO won.
It was a lot of fun, and free. Good beer, good food, and great people.

I don't think that young lady was in attendance, though.

13 Chivers: The Reverend Ronald Simms, the Dirty Vicar of St Michael's ... ooh!

(Chivers is obviously goosed from behind by the Dirty Vicar.)

Vicar (Terry Jones): Cor, what a lovely bit of stuff. I'd like to get my fingers around those elbows.

(He pounces upon the second lady, throws her skirt over her head and pushes her over the back of the sofa, then rolls around on top of her.)

First Lady: How do you find the vicarage?

(The vicar stands up from behind the sofa, his shirt open and his hair awry; he reaches over and puts his hand down the first lady's front.)

Vicar: I like elbows!

Speaking of Brian Dennehy, he was in a new show produced by Amazon that *might* be a series. So far it's only tv pilot.

It's called Cocked, and it's about a dysfunctional family that owns and operates a gun-making company in Colorado.

Prior to Watergate, the most famous scandal in American history was the Teapot Dome Scandal.

No reason why we can't get back to basics and append "Dome" (as a separate word) to any future scandal.

It may take some getting used to, but "Deflate Dome" and "Climate Dome" are entirely feasible.

The very first nodules of pure aluminum were presented to the Queen of England as priceless crown jewels. (Literally priceless. No one knew what to do with them. ) Knowing the English, they still have them stored away somewhere in some museum file cabinet.

317 Just because there is a lot of something doesn't mean it's easy to get to. Before the electrical refining process, aluminum was a semi-precious metal. 20 years ago it was still accepted wisdom that it would always be cheaper to carry bauxite to the cheap electricity than to carry power to where the ore was. Lots of ore boats came up the St. Lawrence for the James Bay power dams.

American Psycho was a novel written by a broad, actually.

It's just an exploration into the mind of a psychopath. Most people don't know what a psychopath is, but I'm gonna tell you.

First, a psychopath and a sociopath are the same thing. People think they're different; those people are wrong. This is not my opinion.

Anyway, what you need to know about psychopaths is their two most common traits: No remorse, Narcissism.

Other traits include the ability to lie very convincingly and above average intelligence.

342 Makng iron consumes energy, so a star needs to go kaboom to make iron.

Stars crank out He, carbon, oxygen, and silicon.

Rocky planets should have abundant oxygen and silicon in their crusts because those elements react to form low-density, stable silicates.

408 "There is now actually something at stake in the outcome of the baseball All-Star game now.

As I have read comments from players in the game, they actually get pretty fired up about playing the other league's All Stars.

-Posted by: Bossy Conservative.... after dark at January 25, 2015 09:44 PM (+1T7c)

They have always been "fired-up" about it. The difference now is in the Managerial perspective.

Before, it was getting every team's players in the game. Now it is ALL about winning that game.

I am of differing minds with the ASG being the determining factor in Home-Field Advantage for the World Series.

I think that the better record over 162 games should be that determining factor.

I'm not "angry" about it, however.

I recall from years ago, when everybody who faced Bob Gibson was a little afraid of him (because he was mean, threw hard and wasn't afraid to throw inside), and how at the All Star game he exhorted the NL team to beat the American League.
They were a little skerred of not beating the American League.

I fucking hate what they've done to the all-star game. And no, it's not all about winning. If it was, each time wouldn't throw 8 or 9 pitchers and swap position players all over the place.

It's a travesty.

No, it's an exhibition game and should be treated as such.

Don't think I'd like the book, but I do like the movie. My take on AP(the movie), is that it's a black comedy.

492 Of course not!

Dammit. I was getting excited. Too many FGs in football. Football should be about putting it in the endzone.

494 Checked out the NFL Cheerleaders for the Pro Bowl website. The Redskin representative is named "Charo".

By the way, what's the over-under on the NYPD doing as little as possible when and if this "monster storm" slams into NYC? I fervently pray Comrade Hizzhoner gets stuck in a snow drift for 2, 3 . . . 38 hours.

495 >>>Well, except they didn't. Once you get to junior high, the DH is in play.

Not in MD. Maybe Florida is different. But we didn't have a DH.

See you on the ONT.

496 In many ways, the DH and interleague play are like the story of Obama.

At least the NHL didn't go with Team Barack and Team Valerie tonight.

497 haha, Cowboys win, that means Dave loses.

498 I for one shall now use the suffix "Dome" added to the end of every scandal in honor of the Teapot Dome scandal of the Harding administration. It makes as much sense as adding "Gate". I'd use something from Obama's reign of errors, but it's hard to narrow it down to just one scandal.

499 Dave is like too many in state "fans" of the Cowboys. I am not talking about the good half, I am talking the Dave half. They claim to be "fans"when they are anything but. I will take a Cowboys fan from Papua New Guinea or Washington DC over a self styled "fan" from Texas who has one desire,to bash Romo after the fact, and run away and hide when the Cowboys do well.

The funny part is, is that ACE should know better. Dave mocks and insults Cowboys fans, the most conservative among us, because he has a hang up. Did Drew Pearson not sign your Zips? Or are you just self loathing, like the libs?

Look,hate the Cowboys all you want. Use the "Texas" moniker to inoculate yourself. The reality is, you bash the most conservative of fan bases. But much worse, you claim to be a fan, and then, and always trash the team when it loses. I say man up, say you hate the Cowboys, then say the team you root for, Redskins?, like a man does. Don't claim to be a fan then trash them at every opportunity, that is shallow and cowardly.

501 Spoke to a typical lib at a dog run area in Prospect Park Brooklyn (redundant I know).
Described how it never snows in Greece, except maybe once every few years.
Then told me it snowed a dusting last time she was there, because "global warming" the weather is all screwed up you know.

502 Dave, my comments below were stupid and over the top. They did not fit the tenor of this diary and I retract them. I apologize.


" Or are you just self loathing, like the libs? "

"Don't claim to be a fan then trash them at every opportunity, that is shallow and cowardly."

504 Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword....wait there's even more Now what if i told you there was a simple Wordpress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That's right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin
