The Americans on FX is a really good show. Highly recommend it for anyone who likes spy/thriller type shows.

Somebody I work with just told me the same. How long has it been on?

Brand new. Just started in Jan/Feb.

Does anyone watch Game of Thrones?

Of course. Game of Thrones is the best show on TV.

I think we're 4 - 6 episodes in. Not only is it a good show, but it is a phenomenal period piece. If you're old enough to remember the 80's and the Cold War it's all the better IMO.

A friend I went to school with was at a local bar where he saw a few yups who attended school with us. The group of yups mockingly mention an incident which occurred while we were all in school which resulted in one of our fellow classmates getting incarcerated. My friend takes offense to their comments and invites the yups outside to avoid causing a scene inside the bar. The yups decline his invitation and pull out their cell phones and call the police.



Typical yups.
They cannot even stand their ground when they outnumber somebody 3 to 1.
I have known these guys since elementary school and they havent changed one bit.
I really wish I had been there.
I would not have invited them to go outside. I would have settled this inside.
My friend is a real class act. Happily married with children. He owns his own business.
I 100% believe his account of what happened.

CBA question: Kobe Bryant has one year left on his contract. Can the Lakers amnesty Kobe Bryant this summer, Kobe then doesn't sign with any team in the 2013-2014 season, and then sign him again for the 2014-2015 season?

What about if Kobe signs a 1 yr deal for 2013-2014 season with another team? Can they resign him for the 2014-2015 season?

Beautiful weather for the cherry blossoms this weekend. Nothing beats Washington D.C. in the spring.

I know of a place that beats DC in the spring.

My family has had a place in OCMD for the last 30 years and counting. I love it there but am shocked you feel the same way. It has become a major tourist attraction and breeding ground for partying college kids. It's now heavily commercialized.

Luckily for my family and I, our condo is oceanfront and untouched by the commercialization and overpopulation of OCMD but we tend not to stray too far away from our hideout.

I love the beach. I love tourists. I even love college kids. (I myself used to be one)

All of the above are more tolerable than all the recent transplants, yups and gentrifiers that have saturated DC.

Ocean City isn't bad, but I don't go to the beach until Summertime and the temps are 80-90+.

Random thought:

Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwiches are addictive. I could eat them for dinner most every night.

Chemically speaking, you're probably right. They're designed that way. They're also horrific for you.
