    Jack White - Lazaretto

    Anyone check this out yet? Really solid album. Jack White is a pretty big douchebag, but his songwriting gets better and better with each album. The material on this album rivals The Raconteurs which has been my favorite White material. Good stuff. Opening track: Picked up tickets...

    We have some very jealous folks when it comes to motorcycles skipping traffic here. I apologize for starting this, but I stand by my statement. I don't drive at all so I don't really have a horse in this race, but I see no problem with cyclists doing that in traffic. I see it happen all the...

    If you manage to race perfectly, it is possible to run away with it. Of the ??? races I've done, that's only happened twice. What really sucks is when you're in 2nd or 3rd and you get hit and then the hits are chained as 6th catches up, then 10th, and then you find yourself in last place...

    I saw this commercial this past weekend when the Reds were in Milwaukee (got the Brewers broadcast). This is hilarious. I can't believe Matheny got all pissy about it saying shit like "I can't believe they would say things like that - just because he's a Cardinal". Do you even sports...

    Pretty sure Insomnia is a Cavs fan. Really biased opinion. It's going to be funny when LeBron goes back to Cleveland.

    What's a pad Thai place? Do they not serve any other Thai food? Just pad Thai? Potbelly is delicious. One of the best chain fast food joints around.

    You're right about macro brews. I've never seen ABV posted on Bud Light or PBR. But we they are consistently around 3.2-4.0%.

    NBA 2013?14 Season

    I would still call it remarkable. The East has been weak, but to make it to that point four straight years cannot be discounted. I'm bummed. You all know I'm a LBJ fan, but goddamn. The Spurs were dominant and they deserved the title. I hope Pop and Duncan retire. I'm tired of watching the...

    Thats Racist ! (Rich old man in LA buys and sells black folks)

    Littering is a very regional-specific mentality in the US. The west coast is very mindful of such things. When I visit the midwest or east coast and ask about recycling or compost I get the most blank stares like, "You fucking serious?" Yes, I am fucking serious. You don't separate your...

    Fucking hell nerds complain about everything. Dialogue, acting, cinematography could all be great. Then Han Solo's beard makes you rage. Movie gets a 3/10.

    Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey

    Although it is a show tailored to a younger audience than me, I was also disappointed in the lack of knowledge bombs. I really enjoyed the episode that explained evolution. I had never heard or seen an explanation that made such perfect sense - particularly when they started talked about the...

    Wait until you guys start trying to three star every 150cc series. It's maddening. It becomes Contra-esque where the first couple races are automatic and brainless until you get to the third or fourth race because you repeat it so often.

    Alcohol percentage is on every beer, but it can be hard to find sometimes. I made the trek up to Santa Rosa to camp with some friends yesterday, but it was mostly an excuse to visit Russian River. I've always loved Pliny, but it was nice to try 14 other beers I've never had before. I could...

    Haha, fucking Tulowitzki. I'll be in CO July 4 weekend and the Dodgers will be in town. Should be a fun offensive match up. Unless Kershaw is pitching. David Price has always been a pitcher to attack the zone, but it's still surprising to see him #1 on the leader boards for so many...

    This pisses me off so much. It's like they dumb down the word "spicy" so pussies can say they like spicy food. I like sweating/tearing up a little. Thai is about the only food where the word means anything.

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Do you tip dudes at Home Depot that help you bring heavy shit to your car? Or people that mix your paint? Because they're probably also making that minimum wage. I'm not sure how I feel about WA's massive increase in minimum wage. It's just a price spiral. If I was an intern or junior...

    Yeah, stars are worthless. Sometimes you can hit an off-road shortcut. I've also used a star while a lightning bolt hit. That was pretty awesome. I don't even think you can plow through obstacles and destroy them like previous MKs.

    I hope ME4 is just in the same universe. Having run-ins with other characters we know is OK, but I'd like to have a whole new story. The universe is just so damn interesting. And a prequel wouldn't be terrible. A game focusing on the First Contact War could be cool. Or go way back and...

    I'm not a big fan of fielding-independent stats. Ground ball pitchers get owned. Or pitchers who like to pitch against a certain lineup in a certain way (pitchers will typically stay lower in the zone against teams with a lot of power to reduce chances of HRs for example). FIP doesn't really...
