sports Who Is The Greatest Nfl Quarterback Of All Time?
JamesSavik replied to W_L's topic in The Lounge
Atlanta is going to be a farce to be reckoned with if they can keep their roster from falling apart in free agency. We (New Orleans) play them twice a year in a grudge match so we know them well. That rep for choking in big games goes back a long way. -

Brady just put himself in the top 5. Montana was a joy to watch in his prime but he never had the teams around him that Belichick has built. -

Answer to prompt 552 With A Whimper Coming soon to codeysworld.com Cleaned up for publication. -
thank you Zeke. I describe the shorts as mu "Twilight Zone". I miss those shows which were basically short plays based on short stories. The writing was always better than the dreck we get from union hacks.

With A Whimper This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper. -T.S. Eliot from the Hollow Men How did it happen? It was an accident of course; the convergence of a million accidents, misunderstandings and bad judgement. A tragic combination of man's ignorance of the world of microbes and the arrogance of people that thought it couldn't possibly matter. It started in the hospitals of all places. The same hospitals ruthlessly scrubbed with antiseptic shi

He was seeing the enormity of the smallness of the enemy who was destroying the world. He felt as if, after a journey of years through a landscape of devastation, past the ruins of great factories, the wrecks of powerful engines, the bodies of invincible men, he had come upon the despoiler, expecting to find a giant—and had found a rat eager to scurry for cover at the first sound of a human step. If this is what has beaten us, he thought, the guilt is ours. -thoughts of Hank Rearden Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

Brady is great but I saw Montana play. I vote for Joe Cool. He didn't go as often as Brady but he didn't have the team and system around him that Belichick built. -
Down here in Dixie we've been Falcons fans for years to no avail. Usually they fail. Sometimes they wait to fail to make you even more disappointed. You have been warned.

the End of the Big K "There is no way I’m wearing that!" The comm crackled, "Come on Bobby, you have to. There's too much damage. Most of the ship is open to vacuum." "I can't. I've got claustrophobia. I'll go nuts in there." "Look- you've got to do it. Containment is breaking down on the #3 Fusion plant. We lose that and this wreck will become a mini supernova. You've got to get out of there." Bobby looked at the big suit of powered armor. It sat in a service bay lik

I've enjoyed "shifter" fiction. It doesn't even have to be gay. In one series of books I'm following, there is a character I love that's a werewolf. His name is Bobbie and he became a werewolf when he was 17. He's older now but lycanthropy slows the aging process. Bobby enjoys surfing and is a huge pop culture nerd. Bobby has teamed up with a monster hunter that saved his life. The Hunter has decided that Monsters are things that act monstrous and Bobby is a silly pup either way. His partner calls him "Teenwolf" and Bobby tells his partner that having super sniffing capability isn't all its cracked up to be in a world where there are tons of zombies and everybody needs a long bath.

Series being canceled with major unresolved plots happens so frequently with science fiction that I quit watching. The networks writing is crap anyway. Space Above & Beyond Jericho Surface Firefly V and the remake of V even after they promised to finish it... The garbage the Sci-fried network puts on the air isn't worth pooping on. Sorry Triumph.

I finally got around to going to see Rogue 1 today. Before I could, there was an unfortunate incident with the previews! I was appalled and disgusted! Since 2000, there have been two Spider Man origin stories and sequels. Now they'll be a third. No wonder I don't go to the movies very often. THEY KEEP MAKING THE SAME DAMN ONE OVER AND OVER! Speaking of making the same damn movie over and over again, the very next preview is Michael Bay's fifth installment on the Transformers franchise which drove Shia LeBeouf insane and decided that Meagan Fox wasn't hot enough. Here's an original plot for you- the frikkin evil aliens are coming and our political horse shit has caused the Autobots to relocate to Bumsfart, Nebraskahoma. But they're honorable and long suffering and come back to save the day despite the filthy f-ing humans hardly being worth it. WTF HOLLYWOOD!? Haven't we seen this movie before? Maybe sixty times? Writers are still writing. Why not try something original for a change! Your audience will reward you for it and despise you less for the decadent worthless pond scum that you really are. So put down the underage cherry you are fondling and read a fucking script or two! I didn't see anymore previews. By this point I had a seizure and was barking and foaming at the mouth. They thought I had rabies and forced me out of the theater with a fire hose. Maybe I'll get to see it next week.

Some people call it New Years restitutions. Kinda like community service without the judge.

Happy New Year Y'all. So glad to put 2016 behind us. This past year was a spiteful bastard. Over 150 big time artists passed away this year and it got William Christopher (Father John Mulcahy of M*A*S*H fame) in its final hours. Here's to hoping 2017 will be better.

Unlike Calvin, I've still got some work to do. Finish some stories. Try not to over commit myself (I always fail miserably at this) Learn some new recipes.

What Happened To The Old Practice Of Giving Employees Holiday Turkeys?
JamesSavik commented on W_L's blog entry in Life is worth an entry
It ended with the quaint old tradition of treating employees like they are human beings and, that they are valued. It simply doesn't go with the corporate culture of screwing everybody out of everything the sociopathic management can think of. -

Truth over Drinks "It's time to bury the hatchet." Colt looked stunned and said, "Maybe in that rat bastard's head." Jerry said, "Oh come on Colt. I know he's a rival but.." "Rival? You don't know what Frank did to me do you?" "I know it goes back a long way." Colt sighed and said, "Frank cost me..." Jerry said, "Come on Colt. I know you have a mad hate of Frank Garrett.

Another Hit To Ebook Authors - All Romance Ebooks Debacle
JamesSavik replied to Cia's topic in The Lounge
IMHO the majority of easily accessible (self) publishing options are a scam. Unless you have an agent that knows who is legit and who is not, you are at their mercy. -

The rain came in waves. It would rain hard for a while and then just drizzle for a while. Eventually hungry drove us from our refuge. Biloxi is a wonderland when it comes to food. There is all sorts of it and it is very good. As we dressed to go out I said, “What are you hungry for Lee?” As he put on a pair of gray 501 jeans he said, “I haven’t had much experience with seafood but I hear this is the place for it.” “This is a good place for a Milne and a Benoit to get in touch with our roots.
