TSRFParticipant
OK, here’s my play.
I stick with the Angel of Death kill the first born male, but make it retroactive through time.
That means Cain dies before he can kill Abel. That also stops this whole mess:
Cain made love to his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch. 18 To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech.
19 Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah. 20 Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock. 21 His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes. 22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of[g] bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.
Also, Abel was a “keeper of flocks” i.e., a sheep fucker. No children. No human race. No overpopulation. Problem solved.
TSRFParticipantDid you happen to see Larry David doing Bernie on SNL? I saw it live (not there, but on my TV when it was being broadcast) and I almost peed my pants.
I wish Bernie well, but I think he has too much common decency to survive a national run.
TSRFParticipantI’d start with all the first born males, unless their house was marked with the blood of a rams coach…
Then I’d kill God. But then the game would end because I was dead.
September 13, 2015 at 5:26 pm in reply to: Wow, how thunk that? (Seattle game reaction thread) #30342TSRFParticipantWhen was the last time you saw the Rams lose the turnover battle but win the game?
TSRFParticipantI have a bad feeling about this game. But then again, I had a good feeling about the Yankees vs. Blue Jays today, and my Yankees are losing 6-0…
TSRFParticipantWe saw MI today. Some movies are just meant to be seen on the big screen. This is one of them. LOTS of action. I agree with PA that this was Simon Pegg’s best MI movie (but “Paul” is still my favorite of his movies).
I liked Baldwin in the movie too, but he should have stayed a hard ass through it all.
I won’t be in favor to order it on PPV, because it will lose so much pop going small screen from big screen, but I’ll probably be out-voted…
TSRFParticipantOK, so today is going to be our Freeport / movie / BBQ day (showers and storms today).
We are going to see MI, but as I was looking, the movie I really want to see is Mr. Holmes. Has anybody seen it (it isn’t playing at the theater we’re going to, but I’d like to see it when I’m back in CT)?
TSRFParticipantVery North tip of Popham by the fort? The island look familiar.
We always pull in to the parking lot and go to the left side of the beach. Away from Fox Island, but that’s where the big waves live (and today was an excellent wave day).
I think my kids are hooked and are even planning / plotting how they will take their families here (we’ve got some time; 19 and 15…).
TSRFParticipantThanks for the review, PA!
We’re on our yearly Maine beach vacation (Reid yesterday, Popham today) and we usually have at least one rainy day where we go to the movies. This week, it looks like it is going to be beautiful all week, but we’ll need at least a day away from the sun. Probably Wednesday, maybe Thursday. After Freeport, before Beale St BBQ in Bath.
TSRFParticipantWe, the residents of New Netherland call it “Tri-State”. And we claim all of Long Island too.

TSRFParticipant”If you ask me today why I sculpt – I’ll answer its because sculpting a person or feeling helps me understand them – and I can get the most true portrait of them by losing myself in squishing the clay. But tomorrow I’ll tell you that the truth is that i feel most alive when i’m sculpting. And the day after I’ll tell you that I sculpt because I love the connection that happens when people talk to me about one of the figures. So any words I give you today are only good for today…. and when I read them tomorrow I’ll probably cringe and go “wow, what a dork!””

TSRFParticipantI’ll bite. What’s the HOA, Mac?
TSRFParticipantOf course the 99 Rams. The PED’s were much more refined by then.
July 16, 2015 at 9:34 pm in reply to: Who is the player, other than QB, Rams can least afford to lose.? #27328TSRFParticipantThe 12th man…
TSRFParticipantHope not. Hockey is my Spring sport/
TSRFParticipantI can’t speak for anybody else, but this just confirmed (in my reality tunnel) what I always suspected.
The way I see it, it was very similar to the way Big Tobacco reacted to the cancer risk.
Yes, I’m outraged, yes, it pisses me off, but instead of a “Grab the pitchforks” reaction, I just kind of went, “Yep, that’s what the fuckers do.”
July 5, 2015 at 8:44 am in reply to: Poll: 70 percent of Americans believe news media is intentionally biased #26973TSRFParticipantExcerpts from here:
http://www.people-press.org/2011/04/08/civil-war-at-150-still-relevant-still-divisive/
About a quarter of all whites (24%) consider themselves Southerners; 75% do not.
Nearly half of self-described Southern whites (49%) see states’ rights as the war’s main cause; among whites who do not consider themselves Southerners, a comparable percentage (48%) also says states’ rights was the war’s main cause. However, self-described Southern whites are more likely than other whites to view praise by politicians for Confederate leaders as appropriate and to have a positive reaction to displays of the Confederate flag.
Hard to imagine an unbiased poll of “all Americans” would find 56% in favor of allowing the starts and bars on plates when only 25% of all white males consider themselves Southerners.
I agree the media has their own agenda, but EVERYTHING you read ANYWHERE needs to be taken with a very large grain of salt…
I here the family stirring, I have to think about more interesting issues, like “What’s for breakfast”?
July 5, 2015 at 8:07 am in reply to: Poll: 70 percent of Americans believe news media is intentionally biased #26971TSRFParticipantI stand with the 70%
MSNBC is 100% biased, as is Fox News. They are both blatantly biased, but it is there in the Network news and USA McPaper too.
One question I have, where was the survey, which states it represents all Americans done?
This “factoid” in particular:
35 percent say the government “should be allowed to deny issuing license plates to a group who intends to display a Confederate flag on the plates,” while 56 percent oppose the idea.
Somehow, I don’t see much support at all for the Confederate flag anywhere except in ex-confederate states.
So, it appears the article itself is biased…
TSRFParticipant“Only 20% now consider the federal government a protector of individual liberty. Sixty percent (60%) see the government as a threat to individual liberty instead.”
Says who? Rasputin Reports??
Come on, you need to do better than that if you want to argue this point here.
Let’s just for a minute think what it would be like if the states had full rights to make their own laws. Are you living in a state where you would be OK with that? Personally, living in New England, I’d be OK with that, but I think it would be a horrible injustice for the majority of people living below the Mason / Dixon line, and for lots more living in all directions of said line.
TSRFParticipantMac, Zooey, SD, I grieve with you, one father to another.
TSRFParticipantZack, my sincere condolences.
Matt
TSRFParticipantBut then, and maybe it’s me, there’s that other quality too.
I am not quite putting my finger on it
He’s a dick?
TSRFParticipantThanks, Waterfield.
We all watched it.
I laughed until I cried.
TSRFParticipantHere, here, PA.
I agree with everything in your post, as do the majority of people in this country.
The old get old and the young gets stronger
May take a week and it may take longer
They got the guns but we got the numbers
Gonna win, yeah, we’re takin’ over, come on!TSRFParticipantApparently I’m not the only one this subject hit a nerve with. ZN, thank you for running interference here for me, but I’m not offended by any of the debate; in fact, I welcome it. I think it is important to know how others feel, and why they feel that way. I (and you, and PA, and VW, and X) can’t get our heads wrapped around why a ban on assault rifles is so controversial, so it is good to here from others with differing opinions.
As I kind of said already, I have ideals, and hopes and dreams, but I’d like to think I’m also a realist.
I’m not very optimistic about where we are going as a country; guns, no jobs, next stock market crash, Israel, Russia, etc.
Buckle your seat belts…
TSRFParticipantSorry, I’m done with this thread. Shouldn’t have gone here; still too raw.
My daughter, the light of my life, had several anxiety attacks at school in Boston. Walking down Commonwealth Ave, she looked up at church steeples and imagined what would happen if there was a shooter up there.
I died a bit, when I heard this. She is in therapy and is making progress, but it is baby steps.
I sincerely hope nobody else here has to deal with what me and mine are dealing with, but as long as a “rights” line is drawn in the sand, sorry bitches, get the front row seats on the hayride to Hell…

TSRFParticipantI don’t think anybody on my side of this discussion wants to repeal the 2nd Amendment. We’re idealists, but also realists.
I just want to get assault rifles banned. I’m sure there would be a grandfather clause, where they aren’t going to come and take your AK out of your cold, dead hands, but how in the wide world of sports can you claim a ban on additional sales of assault rifles is taking away one of your “rights”? (Speaking of rights, have you heard of this little thing known as the Patriot Act??).I didn’t plan on starting an argument, just wanted to make my initial comment. After seeing what one sick fuck with an assault rifle can do, I fear that somebody with a similar weapon can take my children from me. This is the waking nightmare I and lots of my town folk have every fucking day.
TSRFParticipantReally? How about people are tired of having their brothers and mothers and daughters and friends taken away by bullets from guns.
In the spirit in which “the right to bear arms” was written, any American should be able to have a single shot rifle. Not a fucking AR-15.
June 6, 2015 at 11:57 am in reply to: what are your reasons (so far) for thinking Foles will have a good year #25949TSRFParticipantFoles will have a good year because he is now going to be allowed to be a game manager, not a gunslinger. I think his years as a gunslinger will make him a better game manager and he will have several opportunities per game to throw the surprise long bomb (he may not do it, but if the ground game is going good, he’ll have the opportunities).
I think Bradford will also have a good year, getting back to a more wide open offence where he can let it rip.
Horses for courses.
June 1, 2015 at 4:55 pm in reply to: Monday morning question: which Rams players can become elite at their position #25661TSRFParticipantAm I the only one to see the obvious?
Johnny Fucking Hekker!!!!!
Already elite. Only going to get better (with his arm, not his leg).
