He is not a role model. OK, he's a dumbass (see here: ) and what he did was extremely dangerous to other people, but I love the guy. I went looking for memorable quotes from the Round Mound of Rebound and found tons. Here's one of my favorites: "I had to explain to my daughter why that skank...

I'll just throw out a couple of my reasons why ESPN blows. They've made sports less about sports and more about the flashy bull****: dunks and homer-gazing and cheap shots and celebrations. I guarantee they first thing on SportsCenter tonight is a shot of USC players doing their punkass version...

Maybe somebody's addressed this. One of the things that pisses me off is that the Hamas leaders, who are hidden and somewhere, keep ordering rockets shot off into Israel. So Israel fires back with some even bigger **** that ends up killing some Palestinian "civilian" who's out in street...

This is the best off-topic veering I've seen in my short time round these parts. Poodle **** in a ring box. Awesome story.

Screw Rice. Gimme Dale Murphy!! If Rice and Pete Rose get penalized for being turds, shouldn't Murphy get points for being Mr. Nice Guy (reportedly)?

Amy Fisher also spent her prison time there!!!

Those "idiots" you think are stupid also think we (the media) are stupid. After reading your post, I'd be inclined to take their side.

We can make jokes about how stupid people must be to think the media is biased, but the reality is some do. However they came to that conclusion, they're giving newspapers the finger and we're sinking, partly as a result. And it goes both ways. If one person gets "news" from moveon.org and...

They don't have presses at these two places (possibly more). They stopped printing at these shops a couple of years ago. So yeah, you buy the paper, you gotta find a way to print it. Nice business model, huh? Buy the joint, rape it, then decide you don't want it and drop it off in Nebraska.

The papers JRC has already announced it wants to sell don't include presses. The buyer gets a name and circulation list. And they're working-class areas, not likely to fall in love with a Web-only product. New Haven, on the other hand, seems like a prize if a buyer can separate it from all the...

Great! AP is now adhering to the style rules of the people we have who didn't know the correct style in the first place!

Explain that to Sammy Zell.

Not good news. The top dog in JRC is New Haven and I've been hearing similar rumors about that paper for a couple of weeks. Pretty solid sources, too. I've been waiting for another company to buy the Register for years.

I believe we have a winner.

Aaahhh. My wife's first employer out of college. She needed a translator on her first assignment. Years of marriage to me have since taught her the language.
