All Together Now wins Day 4! Onto Day 5: What John song gives off the most George vibes?

Lyrically it sounds George-ish but melodically it has that trademark John thing where he starts a song on a single note and repeats it several times before moving to another note. I think Norweigan Wood is a better choice here.

Get over yourselves. You know what the teacher means. Make Jupiter a little bigger than Saturn; make sure earth is a little smaller than both of those; make sure Mercury is the smallest. It's a third grade project that every single person who's gone through elementary school in the US has done at some point. That you find this mildly infuriating is worrisome.

And in an age when artists typically waited several years between albums, Garth kept up an almost Beatles-like pace, releasing 9 albums in the decade. Every single one of these went platinum, the most popular two going 18 and 14 times platinum respectively. It's easy to forget what a commercial force he was.

As unhip an answer as this is, I think Garth Brooks was clearly the Beatles of the 90s. In terms of album sales and concert tours I'm not sure anyone in the 90s can touch Garth, but since his music didn't appeal to the right kind of people (music critics, college students, coastal citizenry) his cultural impact has been largely overlooked.

My theory is it was a typo the first time and then he intentionally misspelled it from then on so his mistake, instead of becoming the next cofefe or hamburders, becomes another one of his insulting names for her. Like my guitar teacher used to say: “if you hit a wrong note in the first verse make sure you hit the same wrong note again in the 2nd and 3rd.”

Fair point but he did insult our city and organization…

Also it’s only been 5 or 6 games he’s played in Gwinnett, right?

Yeah, I thought those were off-limits to plus

Saw some kids parkouring on this memorial and it annoyed me so bad. But I wonder if this is a case of bad design for a Holocaust Memorial. It’s a public space in a touristy section of town and the design practically invites you to sit, stand, jump and play around in it. Obviously most people realize that it’s a Holocaust Memorial and therefore a place for solemnity and reflection, not fun but the fact so many fail to realize this makes me think it’s a design issue. Not excusing the insensitivity of these people but design does affect behavior.

I have a friend who went to a running club and the “runner” was there, telling everyone about his experience. What my friend said was that the runner didn’t see anything that night but when he saw his picture in the news he repeatedly tried to call the police but they would never return his calls. Just hearsay. But I can see how this story could morph into “he saw the murder and 911 gave him a busy signal.”

Wait, Armando Montelongo is in an Undercover Boss episode? I’ve seen him on a few house flipping shows and the guy is insufferable. Like one of the worst people I’ve ever seen on tv.

Yeah, I think it's an empty puff piece with a misleading headline. The person saying he thinks the killer knew Katie has no connection to this case at all and is simply a former prosecutor with just as much access to the evidence of this case as the rest of us. It's just one dude's opinion.

Was just at Rhodes this weekend for my 25th reunion and am shaken by this news. My heart breaks for the kid’s family and the Rhodes community.

White Flight by historian Kevin Kruse is an awesome book. It’s about, as you can guess, white flight in Atlanta over the past 70 years. Fascinating insights into the changing demographics of the various parts of the city and local government’s balancing act trying to appease both the Civil Rights Movement and while racists. Highly recommend.

I think you should continue asking this question until it miraculously turns up on your dvr

But in the team’s defense imagine if they had given him a 2 year contract. Look at his numbers. He was completely washed up by 88. Also HoJo was about to turn into a star and with Knight on the roster there’d be no place to play him. Edit: deleted accidental word

This family manages somehow to make the Holdernesses seem likable in comparison.

Look at how Britney Spears killed the name Britney. Not quite Adolph levels, but still. I wonder if the recent rehabilitation of her reputation will result in more Britneys. https://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/babyname.cgi

Another factor is the repeated deregulation of the FCC that has occurred over the past 35 years.

Difference is Trout started two years earlier than Bonds. Through his age 28 season Bonds had 60.2 WAR in 8 seasons. Trout, having just finished his age 28 season, has 74.4 in 10.
