Things I learned tonight. 1. You can tell Detroit are pure winners by the fact that they celebrate very calmly after each goal, never getting ahead...
This is almost dead on the same as my picks and wants. I would like to see San Jose beat Detroit, though, and I think they have a very legitimate...
Both Burrows and Toewes with some of the greatest playoff goals I've seen in ages. Great game!
Hey Tiassa, long time no see. After watching the Kings fall in a blaze of sorrow, I watched the Rangers pull up 3-0 against my Caps* and thought...
Classical Chinese (文言) has qing as blue/green/clear depending on the context. Modern Mandarin has a number of distinct words for each of these. Even...
Both current Chinese and Russian scholarship dismiss any claims of biological warfare on the part of the Americans. North Korea, of course, still...
Again, not quite. The major turning point was the announcement of de-Stalinization. It wasn't that Mao wanted to one-up the CCCP, it's just that they...

As someone else pointed out quite recently but you seem to have ignored; there are an awful lot of folk who don't follow Batman. Shocking, I know....
Well I've been on outdoor trips in Canada and outdoor trips in China, and the ratio is a lot smaller in Canada. (Admittedly I haven't spent much time...
Perhaps you're right to suggest the Chinese can pull themselves out of polluted mess, but I don't see it happening. I read an interesting paper...
Really? There are people who think that painting a black man's face white - which will always look like whiteface - will not call to mind the history...
As one of the doctors said, my hip is probably going to have problems from now on anyway, so I just need to be careful. I've already got bad knees...
We're okay now, though. My hip is still fucked up pretty badly, my nose is broken and I've got a bunch of cuts and bruises, but nothing too serious....
Well my friend got a pretty bad infection in his hand, but it's slowly turning into a very cool scar. It was late by the time we fell down the...
