Kareem Abdul Jabbar used to be way up there. Probably only second to Ali at one point.

We're moving my parents into a new house and trying to break my mom out of this. Here for this thread.

2 weeks ago. Coming down the BR "new bridge eastbound in the left lane. I merge into the middle and someone ahead of me slams on their breaks. I quickly look in my mirror and the right lane is open. Good thing it was because if it wasn't, I would have probably rear ended that car pretty good.

If TD had a list of FAQs, this would definitely be on there. For the umpteenth time, you don't have to pay it. Nothing will happen to you.

About 5 rows down from me. Not positive on the exact details but from what i could tell, an intoxicated WVU fan maybe saw an open seat down close and tried to move. There was a bit of back and forth between he and the LSU fans down there, and the blue shirt eventually got him to walk back up. As he was walking back, he kept enticing the crowd with the finger over the lips quiet sign which didn’t really make any sense given the score at the time. He must have kept instigating or made a threat because after I turned back around a couple of pitches later, he was being escorted out by sheriff's deputies.
I would never keep school uniforms. My trophies are all gone except for a couple of good orns and even then, what am I going to do with them. I'm not displaying them. I would never get rid of my senior yearbook. It doesn't take up any space.

Bachelor Party in Minnesota

Plainng on going in mid August. I found this thread from a couple years ago, but it's focused primarily on things to eat and drink around Target Field. We plan on doing that also (Tigers are in town), but we also were thinking about staying out on a lake, renting a boat, and getting after it.

Has anyone spent a time on a lake up there?
Are there boat up bars?
Can we rent a boat with an out of state license pretty easily?
I assume that some lakes are more party focused than others. Any suggestions are appreciated.

First of all, Tijuana is not that small. Second of all, your parents are trash for letting you see that.

If Trump was in the file it would have been released by the Democrats.


Yea, with a bunch of Democratic names and donors along with it. Not hard to understand why they wouldn't want it released either.

I just watched the clip of that on reddit. She is not having any of William's antics.


YES! It doesn't matter who's up. That's her permanent expression.
Also, that stoned-faced Morticia Adams in the corner by the horns must be banging someone with the show. She's sat there for multiple shows and never laughs.
