- On that subject, I think polling station restrictions (location/hours) prevent more voting than an ID would, and a smart ID would allow more voting. - Max Sep 11, 08:40 1
  - I'm just laughing at the idea that the GOP has fought a national ID card...but is all for something similar whenever they can impact voting. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 08:53

    - Update 8 or 9 in the thing Remlik posted near teh top. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 08:09 2
      - I skimmed over it because the sentence started with "according to my friend" and I hate hearsay rubbernecking. -- nm - David Sep 11, 08:11 1
        
        yeah take all that with the grain of salt. But that site is pretty reliable I've found. -- nm - Remlik Sep 11, 08:15

  - I don't know the hulking dude in that tag team, but he did a marvelous job of improvising. - David Sep 11, 08:08
  - Ugh, I can't watch that. But rewatching the clip of the match where it happened, you can see when the fans lose interest in the match. - Tim Sep 11, 08:05 1
    - so did Lil Naitch. the air goes right out of the match. -- nm - Remlik Sep 11, 08:06

  - definitely better than Sunshine. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 08:08 3
    - His character is the exact same guy. - spamlet Sep 11, 08:12 2
      - doesn't he usually play that character? I don't mind it. the difference is how good the rest of the show is. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 08:20 1
        
        *Bing!* -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 08:54
- that starts tonight right? -- nm - Epiphany Sep 11, 08:03
- I watched the preview. It has potential and was funny enough for me to watch it -- nm - oblique Sep 11, 08:00
- I will give it a chance. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 08:00
- They replayed it last night after The Voice -- I enjoyed it. Not sure how long it could last, but it was good. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 07:59
- The preview NBC did during the Olympics was hilarious. -- nm - Jim Sep 11, 07:58 8

      - even if it sucks, if you promise to gossip survivor with me this season, we're cool. -- nm - amanda Sep 11, 08:26
      - Which amounts to 2 minutes of action and 20 minutes of sheepish looks - oblique Sep 11, 08:14

- And he did... - spamlet Sep 11, 07:46
Good article on Raw and the King's heart attack -- (link) - Beaker Sep 11, 07:43 11
- Punk didn't blade, though. Nobody blades on top of their head, they use the forehead. It was a hardway cut. - Tim Sep 11, 08:10
- wait...Randy Orton is a good guy now? -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 11, 07:47 9
  - He's been a good guy for a while now. - Tim Sep 11, 07:52 8
    - crazy. He seems like a natural heel. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 11, 07:54 7
      - He's incredibly boring as a face but he's stupidly over. - Tim Sep 11, 07:59 4
        
        If they can turn Punk...they can turn a guy who went AWOL from the military. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 08:10 2
        
        I don't think they've fully turned Punk yet either. He only got booed when he went for cheap heat. - Tim Sep 11, 08:14 1
        
        Mainly cuz he's in the ring with Cena. Punk will get the reaction he wants. - Will Hunting Sep 11, 08:16
        
        If they can turn Hogan heel anyone can be turned. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 11, 08:05
      - He's a heel in manner, but the fans cheer him. He's still a sociopath. - Will Hunting Sep 11, 07:58 1
        
        the fans all love the bad guys now and hate the good guys. -- nm - Remlik Sep 11, 08:08
a T-shirt? hey bery! -- (link) - mud Sep 11, 07:40 1

LIR: Will. I can only hope my WR troup performance isn't an anomoly - oblique Sep 11, 07:39 5
- Spawn is the only person I've ever seen win consistently on the strenght of his WR's. You have guys who can do it, but you'll have some lean weeks. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 07:53 4
  - Game Notes: With 42.80 points, Team Autodraft got the highest combined scoring output from the WR position for any team this week. -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 07:55 3
    - heh -- nm - oblique Sep 11, 07:55 2
      - Hmm, this must be my theme: The highest-scoring group of WRs in the league this week was on Black Rabbit, which got 37.30 points from the position. -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 08:33 1
        
        *nods* I'm not just a pretty face over here, I know stuff :) -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 11, 08:37

the new dave matthews band cd is not as ... something as I thought it would be. I kind of like it so far. -- nm - amanda Sep 11, 07:31 4
- I had no idea they had a new album out. Thanks for letting me know. The new Matchbox Twenty cd is kind of different. I dig it, but it's not as - sycor Sep 11, 07:39 3
  - I recognized him singing the new song on muzak the other day at work. I think it sounds very like him. thx for reminding me to check that out. -- nm - amanda Sep 11, 07:39 2
    - maybe it's because I'm listing through my amazon app plugged in to my car. Maybe I need a better source or speaker environment. - sycor Sep 11, 07:44 1
      - we just heard the single obvs. -- nm - amanda Sep 11, 07:51
he beat dinosaurs up with sticks, people. - Mel Profit Sep 11, 07:31 4
- did he say cool catchphrases as he did it? Like: "Batter up" -- nm - Beaker Sep 11, 07:32 3
  - admittedly, he needed to work on that. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 11, 07:32 2
    - "Are you dino-sore? ...Write it out...look, when you kill one, you can criticize." -- nm - Reagen Sep 11, 07:42
    - "consider yourself extincted" -- nm - Beaker Sep 11, 07:35
