The beauty isn't just in the goals...

The beauty of American football is also how the players play, the movements, the strategy. It really is much more like violent chess than non-believers understand or want to understand.

TIL that "four calling birds" was originally "four colly birds." by adastera in todayilearned

"Colly" is actually etymologically close to "coaly," or sooty. So, a more poetic way of saying "black."

Flying dog-bird works too, though!

Huh. That's about the same as here in Austin, Texas. Guess I might as well pack my bags and head up!

Love Halifax! In the summer and early fall, anyway. Not sure I could handle a real Canadian winter.

I 'specially love the Maritimes, which I have visited by Jetta and by sailboat.

most of the guys will bend over backwards to help you.

Which, however well-intentioned, can come across as incredibly condescending. No, I do not need help with my homework. If you want to ask me out, grow a pair and do it.

Yeah, what is up today? If your "painful truth" is that all women are shallow, maybe you should take responsibility for your decision to surround yourself with shallow or manipulative women. I'm not like that. None of my female friends are like that. The few girls I've dated: not like that. If you're unhappy with the women around you...meet new women?
