1 pointTook my son to Toys-R-US earlier so he could see if the new Lego Marvel Avengers sets had been released. Saw this on the door on the way out.

1 pointIt's the 90th Oscars ceremony tomorrow. I seem to recall for the 75th oscars they had many past Oscar acting winners on stage together for an ensemble celebration segment and they name checked all of the living Oscar winners on stage as the camera went on them. I wonder if they will do the same for the 90th tomorrow? Will be interesting to this forum if they do as we may be able to assess the condition and frailty of many Oscar winners and potential future deathlist or deadpool picks Of course they won't all attend even if they do it. Joan Fontaine did not attend for the 75th Oscars in 2003 although her sister Olivia did. Although sibling rivalry may have played a part in that!

1 pointWasn't having a go msc, I know how tightrope-ish it is criteria wise to go on the Hare's Pool. If you've decided eligibility, who are we? Merely players, who strut and fret....yadadada.... *hugs*

1 pointDon't listen to any criticism msc. You ran a great tournament last year and are doing just fine. If folks don't like the way it's run or the rules they can start their own. I'll keep my suggestion for tie breaks under my hat until next year under the circumstances.

1 pointDomino's have improved on their pizza. They admitted that their pizza tasted like crap. I refuse to buy from Papa John purely because their founder is an arsehole.

1 pointIt's a bit weird here. The snow has largely disappeared from the open fields, but in other places it's still deep. A good 12 inches (30.48 cm) where the dog is, and much more in the drifts.

1 pointNot sure where to put this, but I'm assuming this thread is actually read by the site owners/admins. If it isn't well it can talk to the void. I just want to take a moment to appreciate and thank the forum staff for this site's incredibly liberal moderation policy having just been banned from another website for calling a weather presenter a cunt. I'm assuming I can use that word as it's not directed and anyone on this forum, which I'd thought I could with the other forum. Utter madness to be honest. What is it with internet moderators and their power complex? This forum seems to have it right, as long as your not a complete and utter wanker you're tolerated, wouldn't the entire internet be so much less full of utter insanity than this forum if that was the case? I've probably tested your limits more than the most in the past, and I apologise for that, I'll be more thoughtful and considerate in my posting going forward. I just want to thank you for the common sense moderation policy that let's the community speak for them. I actually deserved every ban I've had on here, and understand why you banned me for it, something that other forums leave me dismayed about? People really are uptight snowflakes on parts of the internet. So here's a huge thanks to our great forum admins and moderators and a heap of praise for what increasingly seems like the only corner of the internet where you can still say what you bloody well think....

1 pointThe news he won some Latin Grammys makes me wish the best of health for Jose Jose Jose Jose, as I don't have him on my bloody DDP team. Anyhow, this game is full of people trying to stretch the definitions of the categories (I know I certainly did, and wont be the only one, so glasshouses etc) and if none of the rest of us thought to ask Biblio if Jose Jose (Jose Jose, Jose, Jose!) was OK along with whatever 142 year old Mexican singer dude with terminal pancreatic ALS alongside... well, that's not Biblio's fault and it's more power to YB for being that sly within the rules. End of the day, host's say is final. When people argue the rules on the Deathlist Cup, I listen patiently to them, and then decide I was right. Biblio's game, his final say.

1 point"The Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences (now The Latin Recording Academy) was formed by the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences (now The Recording Academy) in 1997. It was founded by Michael Greene and Producers & Songwriters Rudy Pérez & Mauricio Abaroa. Rudy Pérez was the Grammy Florida chapter's first President of the Board. The concept of a separate Grammy Awards for Latin music began in 1989.[5] According to organizers, the Latin Grammy Awards was established as the Latin music universe was deemed too large to fit on the Grammy Awards."[6] This feels like one of those either/or situations. The Latin Grammys are an off-shoot of the original Grammys, awarded by a body that is itself an off-shoot of the original body. In Biblio's defence, if people had questions then people should have asked, as they did in many other categories (including whether lifetime achievement Grammys count). To avoid unnecessary disagreement, as it only affects Yorkshire Banker, would he be amenable to altering his pick, by either choosing an alternative or by utilising his sub if one was provided? It is almost impossible to foresee a situation where this eventuality does not play out, unless there are 3 extremely swift deaths or Mr Jose Jose Jose Jose (copyright msc) makes a remarkable recovery, so best to deal with it quickly. (Also, for the record, Miss Black America is a completely separate pageant to Miss America and they are in no way affiliated. )

1 pointhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_H._T._Bush His younger brother has just died according to Wikipedia. That could create a dangerous lot of stress for a frail man in his nineties. http://nbc4i.com/2018/03/01/william-bush-brother-of-george-h-w-bush-dies-at-79/ Just found the first article on the passing of William Bush.

1 pointJohn and Mary are waiting at the bus stop with their six children. They hear a sound tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap... and from around the corner appears an old man with a walking stick. He takes his place in the bus queue. The bus arrives, and Mary gets on with the six kids. As John is about to board, the driver stops him. “Sorry, mate. Only room for seven inside.” “When's the next bus for the town centre then?” asks John. The driver is helpful. “Not for half an hour, but if you go up the road and take the first left into the High Street, the Number 8 bus is due there in five minutes and that goes to the town centre by a different route.” The bus departs, and John and the old man start walking. tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap... (you can keep this up as long as you want) John is irritated. He says to the old man, “Can't you put a bit of rubber on the end of that thing?” The old man replies, “If you'd put a bit of rubber on the end of your thing, we'd all have got on the fucking bus.”

1 pointSo what you are saying, is that you thought this guy: Sang 'Great Balls of Fire'?
-
1 pointHmmm. I tend to think people who say they're going to kill themselves are not usually the ones who actually do it.
