  1. Maybe this belongs in the random thread....
  2. Not surprising since the Regime seems to ignore the parts of both documents they don't like
  3. Why screw around, if it's a penalty award the full yardage. If the offense crosses the line make it a TD. If the defense is moved back across the line it's a safty. None of this Half A@@ stuff
  4. The building will be called the "Wonder of Jena" when it's completed in 1926. The wonder is the planetarium, however, and the orbs that are projected on an artificial sky; the lightweight construction method, initially at least, inspires no imitators. 2/ In the 1950s, U.S. architect Buckminster Fuller rediscovers the 1920s design, which he renames the geodesic dome (Bauersfeld hadn't coined any name). Fuller touts these polyhedrons as the buildings of the future for their simplicity and durability; thousands have been built. 3/3 One of my favorite exhibits visiting the Henry Ford Museum is the Buckminster Fuller house...I felt that would be an interesting building to live in, for a while

  6. A bit more on the potential buyers. https://frontofficesports.com/newsletter/rays-near-sale-after-stadium-drama/
  7. Good article in the WP about the Spanberger, Slotnick, Mickie Sherrill (NJ Democratic Gov nominee) connection https://s2.washingtonpost.com/camp-rw/?trackId=596a3f5dae7e8a0ef33bbfbf&s=685290f49627ca1008df44d5&utm_campaign=wp_power_up&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&linknum=5&linktot=60
  8. The internet is telling me that the walls at Tiger Stadium were moved back in 1955, taking out the flagpole and the hill. If I remember correctly when they built the current park in Houston there was a hill in centerfield (not sure about the flagpole) Comerica had the flagpole in play when it was first constructed. I think it was during the 2001 season I saw Sammy Sosa hit a bomb in that direction, he did the patented home run hop then watch the ball fall harmlessly into the CF's glove ( I can't remember who) One of my favorite early Comerica moments
  9. The touring Beach Boy group is scheduled to play here Sunday. Only one of the originals and his son are involved.
  10. The fact that Stony didn't do well in his own backyard (Richmond) had to say something. I voted for Rouse in that race, the fact that the GOP candidate has been dissed by many of his own party (Trumpkin wanted him to drop out) tells me a lot. The other two races may be interesting. A lot depends on what happens west of Richmond
  11. June 18 Happy Birthday Paul McCartney https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/june-18
  12. They'll blame it on Biden or something just as asinine
  13. Erie and Chesapeake wearing Copa de La Diversion night jerseys this evening
  14. cool picture but i think that was from 1909...unless they had a Tardis
  15. A moron and pathological liar THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER 😆
  16. June 17 https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/june-17 They should have kept the cool basketballs...
  17. My son spent about a year overseeing the cleanup of the Delray neighborhood in preparation for the bridge and customs building. It was a mess. He said that when homes were torn down they just bulldozed them over, often you'd dig down and come up with a load of "mattress" and such.
  18. He discovered corporate medicine
  19. The Trump Crime Family is now in the cell phone business. I'm old enough to remember when Republicans lost their peanuts over brother Billie's Beer. And made President Jimmy sell his farm.
