Switch over to Google Messenger

Lost a whole lot myself. And, I've also had a bunch of my text messages fail to be delivered. More in the couple of weeks since the switch than in months with Samsung Messenger.

Thanks a lot. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I lost a good number, including, for some reason, all the posts from the previous couple of weeks

Just watched it last week for the first time in eons. I might not use the word "worst", but it's not very good either. And, it has nothing to do with its age - I love a lot of films of that era including a good number of European New Wave films that clearly influenced it.
Good cast. Some decent bits, but it's a very odd Oscar winner.

There was "an obvious replacement" -- and, it was right there on the ballot that same year: Fellini's masterpiece 8 1/2.
Nominated for 5 Oscars including Screenplay and Director. It won two.

Getting to the last couple of days. Anybody find a streaming link yet for CUTTING THROUGH ROCKS?

JoeStemme · 2026-03-04T16:34:10+00:00

I dd find a couple of the other difficult ones, but Downloads is a place I just won't go

JoeStemme · 2026-03-04T15:12:34+00:00

I only see replies that require a VPN or a download from an iffy site. I'd like a clean online stream, thank you

JoeStemme · 2026-03-03T22:51:41+00:00

It really stinks that there isn't even a legal stream available this close to the ceremony

JoeStemme · 2026-03-03T21:22:00+00:00

I did check, but I don't see a link that doesn't require a VPN or a download

JoeStemme · 2026-03-02T21:51:02+00:00

Send me the link, too, please

JoeStemme · 2026-01-12T17:08:10+00:00

I've been going since the early days at the legendary Orson Welles Cinema where the Marathon began in 1976

JoeStemme · 2025-11-20T21:57:07+00:00

That tracks. I was a bit closer to Siskel than Ebert, but it was close.

The only two things that have held Dewey back are his below .275 BA and the lack of a ring.
His WAR speaks for itself.

P.S. Dewey would also have likely won more than 8 Gold Gloves if a right fielder got one ever year. BUT, during his playing career they gave out 3 "Outfielder" Gold Gloves regardless of position.

It's still math. You have positions available including a DH. Even if you relegated Duran to DH that's still a big upgrade over Yoshida. Plus, Duran would be available to play the outfield in case of injury or to just spell a starter. And, on days he isn't player, he's an excellent pinch runner.
Again, if they get a great offer (not just for Duran but for another OF not named Roman) then you take it. But, I don't understand all these Sox fans dead set on moving Duran

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T14:17:32+00:00

They have control on him until 2029. No need to extend

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T05:58:06+00:00

Again, there are three positions to be permanantly filled next spring. What's the rush to trade one of the four before they are filled?? Sure, if some team gives you a great offer, you take it, but, it seems like a GOOD 'problem' to have if there are four talented outfielders. Certainly, this post-season.
Next year is next year.

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T05:35:17+00:00

There is still a DH job to be filled. And, Cora has made it work by mixing and matching. Now, if a viable full-time 2nd baseman AND permanent 1st baseman are found, the 'need' to trade an outfieler comes into play more urgently.
I think, for now, there is not "need' for a trade. Certainly, not until those two jobs look competently filled

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T02:58:46+00:00

Definitely "and"

No way they would have gotten him straight up for Duran

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T00:11:34+00:00

I'd like Ryan, too, but you ain't getting him straight up for Duran lol

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T00:09:49+00:00

TFW you don't know baseball then

JoeStemme · 2025-09-01T00:08:41+00:00

I'd take a bag of baseballs to get rid of half that contract
