IGX

Entertaining to watch the media in high dudgeon about what Trump might have implied vs. the shit Hillary has actually done. What he might have implied? What about what he did. He fired Gary Busey for fuck's sake. Tim, just home from a long day of work, kicked back to relax with a bit of IGX...the t...

Never heard any of those before....

Hey Boris, are you Badenov ?

Congratulations and best wishes Spells & Dunn !

Well played Sir.

Predictions? I've seen stuff online where folks predict Don Draper is D.B. Cooper. That sounds too wacky. I think, in line with the marketing-psychologist's prediction when Don had just separated from Betty, that he'll, "be married again within a year", he will marry another trophy wife o...

Predictions?

Thought it would be interesting to ask the King of Camping.

Of course, I can't review it yet, because it premiers Sunday 2/8 and Monday 2/9 and, unlike the New York Times, I didn't get an advance viewing to review. http://nyti.ms/1IbKb1C

Just giving a PSA heads-up to IGXers who enjoyed Breaking Bad, get your DVRs and popcorn ready.

David Reynolds various writings on Constructive Living.

Batboy, admittedly, my memory may be way off here, but weren't you telling us last season about a kid who didn't perform well but had a steel will? If so, didn't we analogize him to Steve Rogers, the scrawny but super-brave soldier chosen for the "super-soldier" program in Captain America?...

Hardcover. As you probably will recall the price on the dust jacket is (USA) $24.95. Judging the book
by it's cover, it should be great.

My local library is having it's annual book sale this weekend that starts today. There is a large room with thousands of books stacked on tables and in boxes on the ground under the tables. The name "Tim Cahill" written in large block print on the cover of one of the books caught my eye. I...

Did the head hipster (Garrett?) get killed? It seemed he was shot, but not clear to me that he was killed. (Rick had threatened to kill him with the hidden machete, but that never happened.)

...a slight taint lick?

When I have my annual physical exam, usually every 2-3 years, my PCP, after a perfunctory, "how's the family? How's work? etc.," while he's asking me to take deep breaths and placing his stethoscope around my torso, gets to a point where he slips on a rubber glove and says something like, ...

Why do some commentators call looting "protest" ? I think it's a chance to grab some stuff and more likely get away with it than under usual conditions.

I found it interesting how they did a complete story line in -was it?- 10 episodes. Most shows tend to drag after awhile.

"Binge watching" entire series during daily C2 erg sessions has been wonderful and intense. Impressions of the story and characters really stick in the consciousness. Shape, you mentioned, "The Greatest Generation," of our parents. I recently watched the episode where Duck return...

Hey Shape, I realize you probably watched the Roger vs. Honda episode that you mentioned almost a couple years ago. I just watched it today. Great stuff. The actor that plays Roger really pulls it off so well! Roger's character, could be a despicable, "born with a silver spoon" but instead...

Shape, agree with you about Pete Campbell being detestable. Also really enjoyed how Roger pulled the rabbit out of the hat. The passing of the old (Cooper) during the lunar landing seemed an obvious, "it's a new era" symbol. BFly, I also thought Hamlin "going for the money" was &...
