Loved it, haven't seen it any in a while, saw the "fan favorites" list on HBO Now and watched through them. That Steve Buscemi-directed episode in the snow was amazing. Most of the rest, I don't think I would pick as my favorites, too much Melfi and just big things that happened. The amazing thing about that show was every little thing (like literally everything Carmela or Junior says, or Sil's whole thing, or Tony's interactions with his sister), not just the big plot events.

Although they've been mismanaged for years, so this may have been coming anyways. Amazon certainly helped it along.
Think it is more Home Depot, Lowe's, Best Buy than Amazon. That said, too bad Sears killed their catalog business right when ecommerce was getting going.

The Pentecostal church mention was just someone guessing.
I’d bet my life these are Northern Europeans.
i too am mesmerized.... convinced it had to be some sort of megachurch event, mormon maybe? where else do you see old and young singing and dancing and everyone knows all the lyrics? alas, the answer is out there:

I'm sure a great businessman like Arte would jump at the chance to leave the second largest media market in the country.

Saw this on kaggle the other day (a data science / machine learning competition site), I was surprised that there wouldn't be a more "insider" way of finding analytics talent:

Just like fire season is now year-round in California, so are Angel's pitcher injuries.

As far as seal beach - are you talking about those protected swamplands? And the freeway access is no bueno.
Yeah, I can't see downtown LB working at all, nor most other parts due to the difficulty just getting in to most parts of LB during rush hour. Just seems like there is a lot of empty land down around PCH/2nd Street and Seal Beach, and the nexus of the 405/605/22, but yeah, some is a wildlife refuge, some looks like oil wastelands, that big Boeing facility, etc. Who knows just blabbing.

Thread is a fail because i misread it as "Joe Buck"

Long Beach would be awesome, huge city, very diverse, has some character, lot's of freeway access. Also Seal Beach would be great because still in OC, again near freeways, and of all that relative empty Navy land, but probably not for sale. If you are going to build a new stadium I think you are better off going for a unique socal beachy experience and make it a destination rather than a situation similar to the existing suburban stadium.

Help me out here.
What has having the Angels and Disneyland exactly done for the city of Anaheim?
The city looks like the same middle class to lower middle class craphole that surrounding inland OC cities are. Fullerton, Tustin, Buena Park, Fountain Valley, etc.
I've been to a couple of the Anaheim high schools - they certainly aren't pouring extra money into those.
So what exactly has the city gotten out of these two cash cows for the last 50 years? I am genuinely curious. Are sales taxes lower in Anaheim?
Fullerton is a craphole? Huh?

I lived in Boulder for 4 years after school and loved it, intended to move back but kinda got settled back here in California. It's changed a bit and now seems more of an extension of the SF techy type world, but I definitely had a great time in my late 20's living near Pearl Street. My favorite area to live was North Boulder up by Breadworks, pretty chill and away from the craziness of the University. Personally I like the laid-back suburby feel of Boulder, but I have some friends who love parts of Denver.
It's true about the weather, it can flip on a dime. Warm sunny days are usually no more than a few days out. I got by with a little 2wd fine, without chains, including daily driving to Denver for work for a year, though I mostly stayed in Boulder. That said I'd get a 4wd if you can afford it.
Definitely find something outdoors you like, I usually had the ski pass for the Breckenridge resorts, went up every two weeks or so with friends/coworkers and would rent out a place. Tons of great hiking around, RMNP is amazing, lots of cyclists torturing themselves up the canyons. Ground central for rock climbing.

I leave my electric shaver plugged in all the time and the green indicator light reflected off the mirror is a perfect night light. I’ve also perfected a method where I straddle the bowl and pee straight down into the water
one of the revelations of parenthood, night lights in bathrooms are amazing things.
also, if you have issues with touching the seat in your own bathroom, maybe you should clean your toilet more often.

Anita Hill's life arguably improved dramatically after she said Clarence Thomas left a pubic hair on a Coke can.
From government worker at the EEOC to celebrated university professor and trustee, and best-selling author.
When will the book deal be inked for Blasey Ford, I wonder? When will the honorary degrees start coming?
??? What in the serious F*ck? She was born to farmers in Oklahoma and worked her way in to Yale for law school. She worked at EEOC FOR Clarence Thomas, so if that's such a shithole "government worker" job then how did he get nominated for the Supreme Court? She was already a professor when the hearings took place. But you're right, she needed to fabricate a sexual harassment allegation to get anywhere, she's clearly just opportunistic.

The Standard Hotel downtown has a great rooftop bar and a general cool vibe. If you are in the Hollywood area then a trip to the Magic Castle is very LA though you need to know someone to get in, at least that's how it used to be. Getty has nice grounds but the art is meh, better bet is to go to the LACMA or MOCA. For beaches I think Venice is a bit touristy, depends on what you are looking for, but the Abbot Kinney area has a lot going on if you can stand the hipsters. Highland Park is pretty close to Pasadena and has a lot going on.

Can't wait to watch Dipoto furiously rosterbate this winter in an attempt to stay afloat.
He does make a savvy move every now and then but he usually counters that move with three others that wind up burning him in another area. I think Seattle has more year of viability at best before it blows up in their face.
Furious rosterbating is a perfect description. I always imagine Dipoto rolling a bunch of dice like Risk when he works out a trade.

My SIL and fer family are going to Oahu for a week, but stopping on her way from NJ to spend a few days at Disneyland. She can get flights for the same price from both Long Beach and LAX to Oahu. On the map, it looks like Long Beach is a lot closer to DL, but is there any other advantage of choosing one airport over the other?
LAX is the most awful horrible place in the world. Long Beach is one of the easiest to get in and out of, never more than 5 minutes through security, and since the renovation is pretty nice inside. Plus you get to board on the tarmac, has it's charm.

I'd hate to know what the wettest hurricane was that wasn't from the standpoint of water.
i'm guessing it involved a lesbian bar in new orleans, so i'd kinda like to know more

Crazy up here in Arrowhead, been pounded with rain and slushy snow for about a month now, got about 16" of snow early last week, then about 6" more yesterday. Pretty awesome but I could use a couple weeks of sunshine, instead gonna be a shit show later this week with a bunch of rain in the forecast.
