The skiing sequence that opens "The Spy Who Loved Me" was really good. When I first saw it, the audience in the theatre cheered. m.youtube.com/watch?v=RaEU...

Just out of curiosity, was Mike's nine-year-old on the mound for the opposition?

"Not as bad as 'Wonderful Christmas Time' " is a pretty broad category!

Of course nobody remembers the 1978 pre-season with the disastrous depth-charge bats.

He struck out looking in that first PA, against Tom Seaver. Overall 3-for-6, 2 runs, 1 RBI. The Mets won the World Series.

To me, the salient fact here is that in 1968, they were playing a WS game on this date, and on this date in 2026, we're just starting Round 2 of four.

Well, they got the headlines, anyway.

No, but coincidentally, I had a text asking if I wanted to sell my trees, fix my house and cut my roof down.

Barrage of headlines saying, "Barrage of lawsuits targets Trump’s funding cancellation" targets barrage of lawsuits targeting Trump’s funding cancellation.

How's he gonna explain that "no fatties" thing when he fires the Commander in Chief?

PD @patrickdavitt.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Maybe. Or he's trying to get on the good side with the Ellisons so they give him a plush job as a "moderate liberal" on CNN or CBS or both.

It was part of a reciprocal agreement.

Offset somewhat by Newsom's blatant and craven caving to the Ellisons on their news- and creative-destroying Paramount -WBD merger.

St Loo U law school is top 100 (out of ~175), in an nine-way tie for 91st in the last USNWR law school rankings, with Drake, Regent, Stetson, Hawaii-Manoa, UDenver, UNLV, UMaine and UOregon. Just ahead of Case Western Reserve, Rutgers, Syracuse, UArkansas-Fayetteville, UMissouri-Kansas City.

You gotta wonder about Missouri voters. This buffoon; GOP Rep Todd Akin, the "legitimate rape" moron; state Sen. Nick Schroer who proposed a rule allowing offended senators to challenge an offending senator to a duel.

Smith's sudden recollection of the Hawkeyes game made think he was letting Schmitt move his own foot toward his mouth so Smith could slap it fully in.

Hey, anybody could get confused. Consider the similarities: Hawkeyes: women's NCAA collegiate team from a farm state in the upper Midwestern plains. Hawks: men's NBA professional team from a deep south state butting up against the Atlantic Ocean. Po-TAY-toh, Po-TAH-toh.

Story calls Burnham "the former mayor of the northwestern city of Liverpool," which he is famously not. He was the mayor of Manchester. Liverpool abolished its mayoralty in 2023 in favour of a parliamentary system in which the civic executive is chosen by the majority of city council.
