Baby boomers squandering of surpluses. Was it not a baby boomer named Clinton who got the surplus? Gas guzzling fuel vs. largest commercial innovations on renewable energy. The destruction of social programs vs. ObamacareRespond to commentFlag

His no trade list is 22 teams deep and the Phillies are notoriously stubborn about keeping their players, even when not in contention. But yes, if he does go on the trade block, the O's are not an obvious fit, because of the money owed to him and the lack of tradeable prospects in the O's system (Gausman and Bundy are untouchable and Schoop really isn't anything special).Respond to commentFlag

In that tradition, when I was 14, the first Flying Burrito Bros. record came out, and for better or (mostly) worse, paved the way for country rock. I don't know if the Eagles ever properly thanked Gram Parsons & Chris Hillman.Respond to commentFlag - Go to comment.

Jun 18, 2013, 12:27AMI loved the 'then why do you all look alike' thing. It's the kind of question that usually doesn't occur to one until they have exited the conversation.

Your reply seems overly defensive and hostile given my intention to simply relay a conversation between two people. I certainly didn't mean to belittle or demean anyone and the only real name calling on this page is coming from you.In response to

Jun 17, 2013, 01:00PMboth parties here are severely at fault. somehow 'hipster' has become an acceptable totem amongst lame, scared normie mainstream types to belittle and demean anybody that seems to deviate from the norm. Now, that doesn't mean there aren't pretentious, annoying, and elitist people like the guy here. But 'hipster' is a blanket term that basically allows really really stupid people to be even more stupid. so congratulations.Responses to this comment

Jun 13, 2013, 11:32AMAt one point many years ago, I had this problem with Tetris. I'd lay in bed and images of blocks fitting together would fill my mind. The only solution for this, finish the game on the highest level and highest difficulty. Then never touch it again!Responses to this comment

Jun 13, 2013, 11:16AMI like this advice. I'm printing out for my high school graduate to read. He was also his graduation speaker so I get the thrill of hearing what comes out of their mouths at that moment. Congrats to Booker!! And, I remember going to eat the sugar cubes. Always enjoy your musings on earlier memories.

ditto on the kudos. as much fun as it would be to see you wear a red star, "swell" will always be a better word than "awesome," and "have fun" is the perfect advice.

Jun 11, 2013, 06:12PMLiked her writing on Splice. Didn't like her pseudo-intellectual answers to this interview though. Comparing the changing social mores of U.S. culture to the decline of Roman civilization is about as hackneyed as "Man's inhumanity towards man"

Jun 10, 2013, 11:05AMStoya is an exemplary adult actress, along with Sasha Grey and I would daresay Bree Olson. These are women who are independent and hide no kinks of theirs in their work, and they're intelligent and sex positive. The world needs more thoughtful porn stars!

Jun 03, 2013, 12:45PMYou could smoke in 7-Elevens in 1987? Imagine what that smelled like....sickeningly sweet slurpee disinfectant mixed with stale cigarettes and ash everywhere. the people here are more articulate than today, for one thing.Responses to this comment - Go to comment.
May 31, 2013, 05:26PMLate 30s, say 1937. We all know about Amelia Earhart, I read about FDR's augmented Supreme Court, and "Peace in our time" is (in)famous.

May 21, 2013, 04:48PMI could have sworn "H Calif" was 1975 and "Don't Stop" was 1977. But the hell with it. I say '75.
