Interesting; some of them look pretty good.

It is amazing what steroids can do.

He looked a bit out of it to me when he came onstage--but then he always looks like that; part of the image he is trying to project I guess (Nicholson did it better IMHO). It wouldn't have surprised me if he just ignored (or missed) the teleprompter as it made little sense to read the winner without...

Re Pacino's gaffe, I saw this Oscars producer Molly McNearney told Variety in an interview after the telecast that “it was a creative decision” to have Pacino jump straight to the winner. “By the time you get to the end of the show, you’ve seen all 10 best picture clip packages,” McNearney said. “Pe...

I have to say I am pleasantly surprised that even the republicans (at least the ones speaking out) were not happy with Britt's speech; I honestly thought that it would play well with the party that takes Trump seriously (since they enjoy being manipulated), but that doesn't seem to be the case. I gu...

Did anyone else watch; it was a pretty blah show, punctuated by a few silly musical numbers (like I am Ken with Ryan Gosling running though the audience), and a big gaffe by Al Pacino neglecting to read the Best Picture nominees and only announcing the winner--sadly, I think the man's mind is going ...

The sad thing is that she's only in her 60s; if she has had plastic surgery (and it looks likely), I imagine she got the best and still wound up with these results. A good argument for aging gracefully (or at least more gracefully than from botched surgery).

Scooter--I tend to agree with you re his behavior a an actor; my only concern would be if he acted recklessly when handling the pistol; even if you are sure it is not loaded, that is no reason to point it at people of dry fire it (i recall years ago one of the posters here killed his dog while dry f...

Joe--good one. Meade-- How odd that you've argued in the past that you have no idea what or if God created anything or even whether God exists but you know the plan. I don't "know" any of it, but I do know what the bible says, and I am providing this as a rebuttal against what some claim the bible s...

[aybe we should just leave off the criticism and encourage TFG to pick her as VP. Be careful what you wish for--she's a lot smarter than Trump (who isn't) and can only help his ticket. And seeing the overly dramatic presentation she mad, she's also shameless, which will play well with the base. I'd...

True Sue, but I bet it plays well with the base.

I think you misunderstand me; my understanding of the genesis account (and let's leave aside whether it is accurate, myth, allegory... for another day) is that many had dominion over creation (including the animals), but this ended with the Fall, when that dominion became less absolute. But before a...

And it appears to be cocked as well--why? One would think a "firearms expert" wouldn't do that. It appears to serve no prupose.

FWIW lib, I think liberal and conservative governors have used the national guard for humanitarian purposes and to restore orrder. provide security, in significant emergencies; but remember, the Guard is under the jurisdiction of the governor who is in a good position to understand the needs of the ...

Biden was as good as I have seen him in a long time; let's hope he can keep up the enthusiasm and provide some more details on his plans as the campaign progresses. The republican response was pretty staged and simplistic, but I imagine it scored well with its intended audience--the Haley supporters...

Thanks. That certainly provides some food for thought.

BSG--since you have watched it fairly closely, I would be interested in seeing what Baldwin did (or did not do) that made him culpable. I've kind of struggled with that with the accounts I have read. I have no problem with saying he is civilly liable as the producer, but wonder where the criminal li...

Yess Big RR, I believe in the universal binary condition. All Humanity can be divided into two types: those who believe it is all binary and those who do not.

Nothing really surprising in the returns, but it does appear Haley is now out. It will be interesting to see if that changes the number of people going to the polls in future primaries, or if she will endorse Trump. Time will tell. But it raises an interesting question--if Trump does not/cannot run ...
