If I were the losing teams administration. I would see about hiring this coach.

In this day of "everyone gets a gold star for participating" - I am glad to see that some kids learned a little about reality. When everyone wins, no one has the initiative to do better.

And the media is making Dallas Academy sound like it is full of "slow" kids. When in fact it is not.

That is just effed up.
What happened to the other end of it? It would have made a neat pair of bookends.

I'll now wait for some people to complain about it being inhumane and animal cruelty.

It is dead. It has been stuffed. Squirrels happen to be one of the usual denizens of the taxidermy shop. They are usually found with the Armadillo wearing a cowboy hat, armed with a set of pistols.

I loooove the one on my John Deer tractor. There are a few, but one is about avoiding backing up over babies.
The imagery is just funny.

YAY!! It made Netorama!
Back in the 80's, I remember a book of science fiction stories that I had found in a thrift store. The book was "ancient" and most of the stories were about ghosts and zombies.
There was a story similar to that concept for the movie. I had always thought it would have made a good short film.
I am not saying they copied anything though. People are bound to come up with the same ideas.

The thought of "what happens at the cemetary when we are asleep in bed" has always been an inspiration for such stories.

Hugh Laurie as Lord Monty in the Young Ones.
I find it funny that House fans are only now being exposed to him. I also find it funny that long time Laurie fans are amazed at his dramatic performances.
I myself keep waiting for him to say something like "Wasn't it Monk Da Willydahonk?"

If you want to see more of his talent - go to youtube and type in Hugh Laurie Jeeves and Wooster.
There are so many great performances of him on piano.

Er…no. Sorry. I am not jealous. If you have looked at my posts, I have said he is an okay player and give him credit for going up on a stage in front of many.

You could put a four year old on stage with a hurdy gurdy and people will “ooh” and “ahh” because not many people have played or have seen one, and will think the child is amazing.

My point I am trying to make is: I know what goes into playing. His playing, is that of a four year old. He is not a child prodigy. Being up on stage and being a cute four year old is a gimmick. I can hear the small mistakes, but the trick to playing in front of people when you make a mistake is to keep on playing and smile.
An analogy if you will…You are a magician. You know the secret to cutting a citrus in half to expose a coin inside. When you see someone else performing it, you know the trick. To the observer of the trick they think it is amazing. You know what is involved. Therefore you can tell that the trick is not that great.

I was explaining the weight and bellows operation to Erin - because she is the observer of the “magic trick” and believed it to be difficult, when it is not as difficult as it looks.
There is a degree of difficulty of coordination.

LULZ. arguing on the internet.

Like the "kick a ginger day" the comment about us not having souls also originated from South Park.
Some people need to really stop taking things they read on the internet at face value. Maybe do a little research first.

*waits for people to think it is real. Then requesting that you take it down.*

@ Gauldar - Yes. I am willing to bet that ginger tabbys are more conducive than striped.

"How much do you know about Ralph Wiggum? Since I don’t watch TV, I didn’t even try the quiz. You, no doubt, will do better."
Apparently I watch too much tv. I got 100%.
I do not know if that is good or bad.

Thanks.
"Oh how cute. He is "playing the accordion".
There are true child prodigies and then there are children who are cute and can play so-so and are considered amazing because they are cute, up on stage being drowned out by a band, and performing in front of people.
