Sir Creep

She went from teaching the subject matter to being the subject matter.

"My car is totalled," he wrote. "I suffered a concussion as my head cracked my front windshield. I have cuts and serious bruising on both arms, and my left leg is very painful. Also, intense back pain. I need some serious healing time and won't be able to fly right away." Meh, sounds like the worst thing for Burton is he's getting no sugar tonight.

If for some obtuse reason one or more happen to be mine, then no.

Dead Cow v Sir Creep 4-3 As the teams come out for the second half, we see one team have already used up all their substitutions, as Sir Creep's Month-To-Month Tenants need as much speed on the pitch as they can muster if they hope to get one past the defensive-minded Dead Cow team. Down a point, as well as a 68-year old vs 104-year old tie-break, it's all or nothing these final two weeks.

Frank Quilici, the second baseman who played five seasons for the Twins in the 1960s and later served as coach, manager and broadcaster for the organization, died Monday after a lengthy illness, the team announced. He was 79. Quilici spent his entire baseball career with Minnesota after being signed as an amateur free agent in 1961. He made his big-league debut in 1965 and was part of the Twins’ American League championship team that lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a seven-game World Series. Quilici played 405 games for the Twins over five seasons (1965, 1967-70). He was then hired by the Twins as a coach under manager Bill Rigney in 1971 and before taking over managerial duties for the final 84 games of the 1972 season. He went 280-287 in parts of four seasons as Twins manager and joined the WCCO radio broadcast crew as an analyst working alongside Herb Carneal from 1976-77 and 1980-82. I remember having this particular baseball card posted below. Wonder if any of the coaches on it are alive.... SC (EDIT: Bob 'Buck' Rodgers became a famous manager and is 79, alive and well. 3rd base coach Ralph Rowe (d. 1996, age 71) and 1st base coach Vern Morgan (d. 1975 after transplanted kidney rejected, age 47) aren't so lucky. NOTE: The year prior to this card, Al Worthington is the pitching coach on the Twins, and was one of the first great relief pitchers in baseball. Alive and well at 89!

Zuberi, an 8-year-old giraffe, died unexpectedly Monday at Zoo Atlanta after getting part of its neck stuck in a metal railing. The zoo announced the death Tuesday morning, saying Zuberi was in the behind-the-scenes giraffe complex when the accident happened. Workers were in the enclosure with him caring for another giraffe when it happened. They saw some unusual movement in Zuberi's area and saw that he had a portion of his neck in a very small space in the metal railing. SC

EDIT #3: Well fuck. Looks like 60 hours later it ain't-a-gonna happen. What bullshit. After 2 years in a row with 'Lost' DDP deaths, I did my homework, made sure the person had previously been written up in UK media, and submitted the list. What kind of fucking rag is the Daily Mail, who does a story on the deceased not 8 months ago, and does a write-up on Mariah Carey the same day as her famous 'tweet', which shows what a caring person she is (lol) and should easily have been mentioned in the story had the tweet happened 24 hours earlier. I believe her tour is coming to the UK for 3 shows and that is why the published story. The stars perfectly aligned here and STILL the goddamn Daily Mail drops the ball! F.u.c.k.e.r.s. Fuck you fucking Daily Mail, you fucking fuckers. I've been Toothilled! SC (he of the 3 years in a row DDP 'Lost' entrant)

I'll just set this previous post here.

BeretBleu: "My Ab-bad"

Wesley College head football coach Mike Drass, one of the winningest coaches in Division III football history, died Monday. He was 57. In his 25 seasons, Drass led Wesley to 14 NCAA Tournament berths, including in each of the past 13 seasons. The Wolverines reached the semifinals six times, including three straight years from 2009-11. SC

Matt Marks, a young composer, musician and founding member of the contemporary music ensemble Alarm Will Sound, died suddenly Friday, May 11. The group made an announcement Saturday on Twitter, with no cause of death given. Marks was 38. He also composed his own operas and musical theater works, including The Little Death: Vol. 1, which he called his post-Christian nihilist pop opera, Mata Hari, about the famous spy (for the PROTOTYPE Festival) and Headphone Splitter, an ongoing project he described as a pop-horror miniseries. If the video below is any indication, he was a little bit out there. That is a compliment. SC

Hold on. Not sure the inference toward ‘my kind of pick’ or me as a DP’er is warranted. Her inclusion rests solely at a doorstep and it isn’t mine. ————- “On 12/31/2017 at 17:06, YoungWillz said: Understood. Agree with her getting the boot. IN fact I'd have agreed to both. In fact, out of integrity for the game, I suggest you cut Podermanski. SC” ———-

Holy hell he isn’t 80? I pegged him for mid 80s. He looks like hell. He was a popular name to kick about after the treadmill thing.

Yes, if she were alive for instance. Youve been sCAMMed. 18 hours and counting. That’s such a bullshit source on Wiki whoever Admins it should ban them. Not saying she’s alive, saying that’s a bullshit source, and to allow an edit based on it is unconscionable. SC

He’s a team Gris Gris staple, and I think there’s a Louisiana theme team as well who surely must have him.

I found this fascinating post.... just setting it here.

Maybe CarolAnn can visit (and get an autograph from) Bishop Francis Quinn! He's DL royalty these days.

It's official. My daughter's broke-arse father is taking his orca- and dolphin-loving child to SeaWorld San Antonio in 10 days.

John D. Bonvillian passed away in his 69th year on May 8, 2018, in Charlottesville, Virginia. At the time of his death, John was an emeritus faculty member at the University of Virginia. John joined the University of Virginia faculty in 1978 and taught many thousands of students there before retiring in 2015. His principal faculty appointments were in the Department of Psychology and the Interdepartmental Program in Linguistics. John's principal research interests were the development of language and communication skills in typically developing children and in children with disabilities. He conducted pioneering work on the acquisition of manual signs by non-speaking children with autism, beginning in the early 1970's. A few years later, he began a series of studies that examined the early signing of infants and young children with deaf parents. The findings from these studies helped spur what became known as baby signing. SC

Cup entrant.....best be sure mate. Edit - STRIKE THAT I was thinking last month.

Funny, I just looked in on him yesterday as follow up and he's tweeting away non-chalant. I won't claim to separate fact from fiction, but one of those is replete with hyperbole, and the other we call fiction. Fraud antennae activated. SC

That's nothing to do with it. Been there done that. We're busy sending shit to Pluto and beyond, and you want us to send a fucking manned ship to the MOON? Maybe an arts endowment will be set up so children can learn to scratch a man and spear chasing a deer on a cave wall. SC

Yup, knew someone would make that lame comment. You win.

Coolest and bestest story you'll read or hear about in 2018. Just when you think mankind hasn't any hope....there opens a sliver of humanity from within the morass. SC
