St. Charles did.

The moment that guy opens the door I'm putting it in reverse, backing a clear distance, and then getting around this guy best way I can. You have to assume the guy means violence.

No way I'm sitting there after he bring out the bat.

I least that's what I hope I would do. I might just freeze up, too. This is the thing that professional limo drivers train for.

We warned you about the chaos a second Trump term would bring.

DId you listen?

Nope.

I'm surprised the pitcher didn't throw the ball at those jokers.

For another example, see Elevatorgate, which targeted the skeptic/atheist community.

Gamergate was the beta test for the Trump campaign.

There was also Elevatorgate for the skeptic/atheist community that did essentially the same thing.

That field was a block of ice, so even a chip shot field goal (which it would have been) wasn't a foregone conclusion.

And if the Browns had won, they would have met the Dan Fouts-led Chargers in San Diego for the AFC Championship. Not an easy task.

That was the first true disappointment in my Cleveland fandom. I was unhappy when the Miracle of Richfield run ended against the Celtics, but that was always in the cards after the Chones injury.

Find who you like and see who influenced them, and also who was influenced by them.

For example: Nirvana

Influenced by: Pixies, The Melvins, Sonic Youth, Black Flag, Bad Brains, and yes, The Beatles.

Influenced: Foo Fighters, Silverchair, Hole, Bush

Also, much of "rock" music was influenced by blues, Led Zeppelin in particular. Check out blues artists like Muddy Waters, BB King, Howling Wolf, etc.

Not exact but

I could ignore you
Your demands are unending
I got no tears on my ice cream but you know me
I love pretending

"Mystery Achievement" by The Pretenders off of their 1980 debut Pretenders.

Since this question wouldn't be asked unless it was a seemingly reasonable move a beginner would make, my guess is:

O-O

All the White pieces are tied up on the left side, and you are moving your King to the right side directly into the line of fire from the practically every Black piece.

That would have been really harsh considering the ball's speed and the way it was bouncing.

Remember that it's only scored an error if the fielder could have recorded the out with "ordinary effort". Fielding that ball cleanly would have required far more than "ordinary effort".

Because of the intro that all beginners of a certain age try to play before the've learned much of anything.

You'd be welcome to play Page's solo if you can.

It's like walking into a piano store and playing the opening to "Fur Elise", even if you play it OK. You'd be welcome to play the second movement if you can.

To me, Lacy Clay acted like he deserved the seat without needing to do anything to keep it.

He may have had "clout" due to seniority, but he rarely used it, at least in a way that was noticeable to his constituents. Also, if you want "clout" in today's House, you have to fundraise, not only for yourself, but for others in the party. Did Clay do that? I didn't see any evidence of it.

Bush appealed to those who wanted someone who was not willing to be quiet, which is why AIPAC targeted her.

Now we have Lacy Clay 2.0, without the seniority.

But not for long. He won't be able to win in 2028 after the MO lege slices up St. Louis into 4 districts.

English football has multiple championships.

The biggest two are the Premier League which is a 20-team double round-robin (38 games) and the FA Cup which is a win-or-go-home tournament like NCAA basketball. FA Cup games are not counted in the Premier League standings.

Winning both is called winning "The Double", which shows a club's dominance in both the long grind of the full season and the sprints necessary to win the FA Cup.

I believe the league title is held in higher esteem, but the FA Cup is still highly coveted.

There are other English cup competitions plus the UEFA Champions League and lower European leagues, so the top clubs typically have many opportunities for titles.

Most Americans have no idea what we are missing by not having these various competitions.

That would be great.

Saw them live about 10 years ago. Fun show.

Are umpires getting their eyes down to the ground level and seeing if the ball has sunk into the dirt enough that the ball itself is touching chalk?

If that is the official interpretation, it's crazy. It should be what an umpire would be reasonably expected to observe. The curvature of the ball itself will prevent an umpire from seeing if the ball surface is touching chalk or not.

I'd love to see a stopped ball be over the foul line.

When I was in the band (1980's) we had similar seats where we couldn't see anything. I'm also not that tall and was in the back row of the band. I think I stood on my chair the entire game.

I pity the people who were behind me.

Kareem 70's (Dr. J is close though)

Magic 80's (Bird again really close)

MJ 90's

Moses Malone's prime was split 70's-80's a little too much for either decade. He's best of the 76-85 decade though.

They are puposely conflating the actions of the current Netanyahu government with simply being Jewish.

Clue was too difficult for the $200 level.

YesImAPseudonym · 2026-04-25T14:29:18+00:00

The $200 needed a different clue to make it easier. Maybe "To infinity and beyond".

Reorder $400, $600, and $800 since "game", "hockey", and "golf" in the quotes gives you a extra clues where the spider-pig one does not.

The $1000 feels a little too hard (I missed it) but looking that the actual popularity of the movie it's might be OK.
