In Australia sports betting is legal and every sporting event is interrupted by several adverts of this kind. One of them features Samuel Jackson, who explains in a calm and confident voice that with this betting company you are simply guaranteed to make money. I strongly dislike Samuel L. Jackson....

Maybe a few people here bet on sports? My gut says probably very few. Anyway, the Supreme Court struck down a law prohibiting sports betting. It's now up to the states on how to implement. A few like Utah, will probably never do it. I also heard that Disney is lobbying Florida to delay it for as lon...

I remember a few of us making predictions for Breaking Bad. I will miss The Americans but it's time. Even Phillip wants out, but this season has been good. Stan, FBI neighbor has his new suspicions, and will recognize the artist's renderings from Chicago's fkd-up operation. My prediction is Phillip ...

Done

Subreddit may not be a bad idea anyway, it can be made invisible, anonymous users, restricted posting, etc. while still being accessible to Google, if we want. I've created one. I'm not interested in moderating, but will hand it over if somebody wants to manage it. Just placeholding it in case some...

I was 10 when Star Wars came out for the first time. As an engineer and nerd, I loved the original trilogy. I disliked the prequels. If you disliked the concept of midichlorians, that Anakin was immaculately conceived, and that the Skywalker bloodline is the heir apparent to the Force throne than t...

seriously.

Multi-hundredaire. To be honest, I'm very happy with it. But under the circumstances, no way I was putting a major portion of our IRA's into that. Contrarian investing takes some large cajones to go all in.

Great investment opportunity. Okay I missed my estimate on VW calling for it to hit $40-42 by the end of 2016. So today it closed above 40 at 40.10. I missed my estimate by 11 months. So how has it done compared to S&P500, since the shit hit the fan? It's up 76.5% since that dark day; the S&...

No, it's back up. But they replaced hers with Kathy Griffin's.

If this thread does not resurrect Garm, nothing will.

Should only take 18 months or so.
This story doesn't seem to hold together.

And I just spoke to the ghost of teddy Kennedy. I'm trying to figure out what sources you read that make Chappaquiddick so interesting to you. It was almost 50 years ago. Dude is dead. Dude was alive for a long time after it happened and seemed to be a fairly typical pol who remained scandal-free a...

I think I liked it better when Phillip and Elizabeth were more like Brad & Angie in Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Harm the planet via emissions cheating and the govt will fine your ass big time. Kill people with self/auto-driving functions, not so much. i bet over time the auto-driving will result in huge safety increases (never tired, never drunk, no learning curve for new driver, etc.), but it will be messy ...

The U.S. government has filed a civil lawsuit accusing Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV of using software to bypass emission controls in diesel vehicles. The U.S. Justice Department suit, filed in U.S. District court in Detroit, is a procedural step that may ramp up pressure on Fiat Chrysler. The suit ...

The mayor of London did say to expect some terrorism in large cities.

Okay, that was an excellent episode...especially for a first episode to start the season. Yes, Paige needs to be killed but anyone who's ever had to raise teenagers knows this. Not quite sure what's going on with the Vietnamese kid but I'm sure we'll all get it figured out. C'mon Shape, can't you e...

In San Diego with the family for a few days, and I'm semi-surprised to see the nice parks that are filled with homeless campers. Saw the same thing in Seattle and SF. What's the deal? This generally doesn't fly in most other cities I've been, where there's a police-enforced attitude of "We mad...
