Yup, all that.

For a kid whose chief calling card has always been speed and energy, that's going to put you back.

I know that Chris Pryor still thinks the world of the kid so they'll be patient with him.

Try the They Might Be Giants version.

I've got a signed Tanev, never been worn (still has tags), that I'd be willing to sell for a modest price, if that suits your fancy. One hundred percent legit, straight from the team, and can prove it.

Pick the seeds when green still, boil in a tea....hear the rocks and trees talk.

I walk right through the door, walk right through the door.

I enjoy stealing, it's just as simple as that.

Keep your chin up, Joe.

If we chopped Tryamkin into two normal sized players...

Channel your inner cat.

Also... extreme exercise is the cure for my insomnia. 

Don't piss on the cat. They need to lick it off. They're harder to hose off than dogs. They don't care for it much.

Sometimes that's just laziness or apathy. It can happen sober just fine.

PORQUE NO LOS DOS?

Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could think you under the table,
David Hume could out-consume Schopenhauer and Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the turning of the wrist,
Socrates himself was permanently pissed...
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will, with half a pint of shandy was
particularly ill,
Plato, they say, could stick it away, half a crate of whiskey every day,
Aristotle, Aristotle was a beggar for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart, "I drink therefore I am."
Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed;

 

It's cause he's only 16, he doesn't have a rep yet.

Thanks. 

I think we still live in an antiquated mindset with regards to education, that your high school will be your only set for a large part of the population before you go get a job for life. That doesn't happen anymore. 

Our current market in Canada has 80% of people pursuing secondary education at some point and often later in life, as well as multiple different times. People now are more likely to have 3-4 distinct career changed throughout life, and we have no idea what age this generation of school aged children will live to our retire at. The basic fundamentals have changed IMO. 

Yes to literacy, basic maths, science and history. That should remain. But what we need to add is a contextual and applied approach to the execution in f that knowledge. 

Literacy? Also read legal docs, resumes, the Charter, as well as Shakespeare. Maths? Also do taxes, budgets, and accounting. Science? Do local biology, nutrition, intense first aid, household chemistry. History? Make it living...it needs to be hands on. 

And bs it should all be done every year and re-inforced. All other job skills can be learned after adulthood and chosen by the individual. 

Other things you become a full fledged adult without being mandatorily taught in schools:

-The law

-Your rights

-CPR/first aid

-Nutrition

-How money works

-How to make/build a resume

-How to budget

-How to survive in your local environment for three days without help

-Plant ID

Honestly, schools don't teach the basics of life and falsely assume that will be taught by outside influences. They're mistaken, and IMHO the complete focus on education should be changed from creating workers to creating citizens.

TZ, I've ponied around he idea of having a suggested ignore list in my sig but wondered if that was too counter-troll. It's up my alley though. 

Blocked him a long time ago. I really wish the Mods would get wise to his act. It's clearly only for the effect of riling up the less stable or naive segments of the fan base. He's the type that stirs up a witch hunt for the mob and then laughs about it at the pub.

Dude... the board is still littered with fruits from years ago. 

Same thing happened. Same psychology.

It slides each lottery spot depending on who wins each round, a team above or below them in the standings.

At least your namesake can play hockey. 

Of all the Scotts in this world...he's the only one in the NHL. 

Then maybe you can sympathize with how I feel about John Scott.

You're right, Joe... and you're a better person than I am for not letting it affect you. It bugs me to no end.

The herp will always come back.
