NUance Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Props to him for being zero tolerance and pulling the trigger so fast. Yeah I agree. Even though if he didn't the image of OU would have been reeeally bad but I think he seems pretty genuine. Report: University of Oklahoma student apologizes for racist chant "I am deeply sorry for what I did Saturday night," Parker Rice said in the Dallas Morning News. I do NOT condone what those OU kids did. But kicking them out of college seems kind of harsh. I mean, they sang a bawdy, racist song. Words only. It's not like they beat anyone up, or even personally threatened anyone. What they did was beyond poor taste. It was clearly wrong, and should be punished. But expelling them? For an ignorant racist song? Just seems a bit harsh if you ask me. Quote Link to comment
GM_Tood Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Tiger Woods can't name his restaurant 'Tiger Woods' Nicholas A. Mastroianni II, the developer, says Nike owns the rights to Woods' full name and he can't use it. Woods himself can't use his own full name without approval from the athletic corporation. Mastroianni said Woods has to get permission just to use the golfer's name in a press release. 1 Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Kind of surprised this never showed up on here. The most popular TV show in the world, with some 350,000,000 viewers and millions more who probably illegally watch it, and it may be over. There's no way you can take away anyone of those three guys and have it be close to the same show. Not to mention cancelling the show will really put a dent in the BBC pocket book. BBC Suspends Jeremy Clarkson, Host of ‘Top Gear,’ After String of Warnings The BBC announced his suspension late Tuesday “following a fracas” with a producer and “pending an investigation.” The BBC provided no further details, but Mr. Clarkson was reported to have punched a producer last week. The show will not be broadcast as scheduled on Sunday. Quote Link to comment

Seems like if Jeremy Clarkson is that difficult to work with, the BBC would have made more effort to find an accommodating producer. Or maybe just hire a producer who could take a punch.

When the vessel got closer to the feeding frenzy, the tourists realised the reptiles were dining on the lower half of a human body. LINK Well, one less mouth to feed. Oh come on. I meant the croc. Because he had just eaten. Quote Link to comment

NUance Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 I have a wooden cabinet I use to store the dog food, cat food, fish pond food, bird food, squirrel food, etc. My dog (half lab mix) was scratching at the cabinet yesterday to the point where she nearly had a hole scratched at the corner of the door. So I figured I got a mouse problem. Dug out a mouse trap. Put a small bit of butter on the trigger. And BAM. This morning I got the culprit. And fed him to the cat. The little bugger didn't even get my butter. So now we'll see if he has any buddies. (NUance the small game trapper.) Quote Link to comment
