Worst curling game ever.
“Hurry hard!”
I believe Stomp will do a re-enactment next season.
Fortunately the Palestinian Authority stepped in to break up a scuffle that could have led to the Second Crimean War. Somewhere Harry Flashman’s descendants give a sigh of relief as they go back to their lives of drinking, clubbing, and pestorking (just like old Harry).
@Jesuswalksinidaho: I liked those books.
Reminds me of that line from Dr. Strangelove – “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here, this is the War Room!”
@Dodgerblue: +1. Harry is good times.
@ManchuCandidate: Worst curling game ever.
There’s a best?
@blogenfreude: I love that line. I find myself quoting it frequently.
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee fight
Simmering deep and boundless hate
The silent rage goes on
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Fight
The hates and madness of all the years
Are swung at thee tonight

I know it’s strange, but yes, there is…
If it were Episcopalians it would be a ruthless game of cribbage rather than a brawl.
And I love the one hooded monk with the iPhone. Hilarious.
@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: Also, there would be cocktails.
T/J. So I lost an important case today in the trial court. Not to fret, the appeal awaits. So my learned co-counsel wants to put out a statement to the press. Dude: you don’t seek out press when you LOSE BIG. It’s bad enough fighting with the judge and (now gloating) opposing parties, now this.
@Mistress Cynica: Naturally. Have you tried getting your cats on a leash? Mr. SFL tried it once with the neighbor’s cat when he was a kitten. Great hilarity ensued. There’s a couple of characters [read: street people] in the Castro and the Financial District who wander around with their cats on leashes perched on their shoulders or shopping carts. Better than the folks wandering around who have rats on leashes. Better than the naked guys wandering around, for that matter.
@Dodgerblue: Sorry. But I don’t feel that sorry for you since you’re in FUCKING HAWAII on vacation.
@SanFranLefty: No cat leashes. I like having a face.
@Dodgerblue: Fuck cat leashes. You need a co-counsel leash, and if that doesn’t work, a cloth sack and a baseball bat.
@redmanlaw: You know this group. Three letter acronym and there’s no “C” in it.
