.....but you'd have to chop Frank Mason's leg off for him to miss his final year NCAA tournament and last chance at a natty. The doctors would have had to stop him from playing.
None of us know if the doctors stopped him. Or at least influenced his decision heavily.

Re: NCAA Tournament 2024

None of us know if the conversation with the physicians went along the lines of “well, you could try to play and maybe you’ll do fine. However, remember that there’s a non-zero chance that you might injure yourself to the extent that you’ll be able to walk fine for the rest of your life but not be a...

❓ What about other occupations?

I think you misunderstood my post. I’m agreeing with you that this particular initiative is misguided. My only quibble is with characterizing stupid laws as uniquely Californian.

Re: No One Cares Because Nothing Matters Anymore

California, land of restrictions. Its everybody coming for choices, everybody wants more governmental control. It's all bullshit, needs to stop. Why are you opposed to following laws? There’s a reason we have speed limits. Having said that, I think it’s a pretty stupid law to take on. Driving 35 mp...

It would not be surprising to see the 2 factions of the GOP start eating each other.
That would be among the best things to happen to this country.

Re: IPAs

As a fan of IPAs well before the hipsters found it, I think that Coors tastes like what I imagine the urine of someone who has imbibed one too many IPAs would taste like.

Re: Picky eaters

Using salt to clean is a great idea! Why didn’t I think of that! I also have a dedicated spice (coffee) grinder but I have been using a damp paper towel to clean and then leaving it open to air dry overnight.

Re: Another mass shooting

Not to make light of the shooting, but if Mr Acree had registered as a candidate for high office as a member of the MAGA cult the rubes would have paid his back taxes and legal fees. Or he could just ignore paying taxes forever
