Hey, I am (obviously) no longer a Lane fan, but even I down voted this one.

Early 90s, sixth grade, cosmic bowling. Once an hour they’d stop everything and draw a name for someone to bowl a strike for $100.

Called my name. Bowled a strike. I had never had $100 before.

Woke up the next morning and biked to the card shop and spent it all.


Owned a card shop in the 90's. One morning this naive kid walked in with $100. I took the little guy for the full amount. :lol:

I think the first "judge" AI we will see will be plate umpires in baseball, and that won't be long in coming. Could be a test bed for bench judges in court.

If you are headed to NOLA via I55, time your trip for a stop at Middendorf's in Manchac for the best fried catfish. Order the thin fried (Middendorf's Special). Just writing this makes me want to head down there from north Alabama.

I'm about to have a colonoscopy in the morning, and I'll tell you, they better not placebo me before sticking that thing up my azz.

My brother was stationed in Norfolk, VA, in the navy. He told me some residents had signs in their yards, "Dogs and sailors keep off the lawn."

Can't see this one

Lol, no. That was not a two-front theater - that was an expedition. Huge difference in two actual fronts. We didn't have the capability as we did in WWII and especially not the Navy.


I wonder what the guys of the 339th would have said if you told them that!
We actually did for a short time. There was an expedition into northern Russia right before the end of WWI, ostensibly to protect military supplies sent to the eastern front to help Russia fight the Germans. It evolved into a conflict against the red army as the Russian revolution began. The 339th Regiment was composed mostly of U.S. soldiers from northern states like MI and WI because it was believed they were better suited to weather conditions in northern Russia. Their war continued after WWI ended. The soldiers called themselves the Polar Bears. Search Polar Bear Expedition for a fascinating history lesson.

Hey, do you not realize the pressures associated with, "you want fries with that?"
Well, Tom Cruise DID have to spend 30 minutes under water without oxygen in his last MI movie, so there's that...
I love my country. I will stand for anything that honors my country.
