Meanwhile, Thor is the second member of said staff to hit a home run within the last week. The Colon video is hilarious

Nice one. This should be good

How did I miss this one? Great photo, Mike.

How would you describe your mother and fathers sides of your family? In what significant ways are they different from each other?

I don't like his face.

I know, rainforest killers...does it get more ugly than that? Let's hope it's not them, based on that alone, frankly.

In the States, we never really learned about the amphibious assault on Morocco, or much of the African campaign in general. Probably because we had no idea what we were doing, and suffered some embarrassing defeats. It's absolutely fascinating though, the politics between The US and UK, and also all the French intrigue. The first army to resist us in Africa was France! Also fascinating is how we eventually got our act together as a fighting force. So book one really delves into the headache France and Vichy posed to the Allied cause. It also shines a light on the behind the scenes maneuvering between the Yanks and Brits to work more effectively together. The brass of both armies were close to total dysfunction due to egos and damning command assessment. Cutthroat politics played out on the battlefield. Sick, but totally engrossing, and Atkinson is a master.

Steven Matz to miss his next game with elbow stiffness. Which usually means one thing. Not looking good, Mets fans. Luckily even without Matz, you still have the best staff in baseball.

And they thought Howard was bad at the end there

Yeah, but no concrete links. His name has been bandied about on here at least twice before, so for me, it's just as phantom as ever. That said, if the link is legit this time, I'll happily believe in ghosts!

Red top, not James Nursey, no quotes, and the article is made even more dubious with the phantom Ellison link, which has no quotes either. Not falling for it, Randy, you word removed.

There has always seemed to be a kind of kinship between the two clubs.

Tip of the hat to Gareth Barry, who has now started more games than any other player in Premier League history.

A guy outside Boston crashed his car into a parked car, tried to carjack someone, broke into someone's home, surprised an elderly woman and her daughter, stabbed them both, killing the mother. He then got back into his car, drove to a nearby shopping mall, drove the car through a department store window, and stabbed three more woman (all of whom lived). Then he walked to a nearby restaurant and stabbed a waitress. A man tried to come to her aid (and did), but was stabbed to death by a knife would to the skull. Police shot the suspect dead. The suspect's parents had tried to get him mental help, but he was released from a hospital the day before. Total waste.

Love it

They should swap out hockey sticks for banjos to make it more culturally appropriate.

I think we should go back to the mid century strip of traditional claret and blue top and whites shorts, but with black socks...

You mean ice hockey isn't a big deal in Tennessee?

for such an old ground, it always seemed like a pile of junk

It's got to be on of the most incredible videos of a tornado I've ever seen.

That said, it does not give short shrift to major British players, efforts and motives, and highlights how big a factor vanity and personal ambition factored in to so many monumental decisions. The American Morocco landing was in some ways more unlikely and dramatic than Normandy. The books have fascinating insight into the relationships at high levels amongst all the Allies. Battle analysis is never dull. He writes like a poet at times, he's that good. Total precision.

Big twister...
