When Seinfeld and real life merge.

“I hate to say that. I don’t like them doing that. And it’s conceivable if it’s treated as a city, state or county stadium that the rule would be different. But with what kind of clothes people wear, usually people who run the ...

1 2 >I knew there was something sinister about Ron Mael's mustache.
I heard he shot a man there one time.
And end up in Folsom Prison; how strange is that? Does the state of Nevada not have its own correctional facilities? Inquiring minds want to know.
RedSox: (smelling a quart of milk) Whoa! Yecch.
29 teams: What?
RedSox: Oh, you gotta smell this!
28 teams: No way!
DBacks: OK. Hand it over.
I suspect we might be able to file that one under "artistic license." Because "I shot a man in Grass Valley" just wouldn't have the same flow.
Under new owner Mitt Romney the Diamondbacks have also retroactively released Eric Byrnes, Chad Tracy, and Brandon Lyon, meaning that under generally accepted accounting standards they are the 2008 NL West champions.
"I shot a man in Chico" works.
but I already had outstanding
warrants for multiple
homicides in Cali."
...doesn't fit the meter and rhyme.
It does. And, true story, I actually saw a man shot in Chico.
I was about 20 or so, a buddy of mine and I were cruising around up there in his pickup truck one summer night, and we turn a corner and pass by a little convenience store, and there's a guy sprawled out flat in the doorway, a pool of blood welling around him, and (what we assume was) the store proprietor standing a few feet behind him. It had to have happened just seconds before we drove by.
Very freaky.
B: In re?
A: No, just to watch him die.
Technically there are places in California named San Antonio
Yes, I Googled San Antonio, CA and it pointed me to a crossroads south of Petaluma - I guess prison does strange things to a man's mind...
In all seriousness, I think it's pretty awesome to think about a 19-year-old hayseed from backwoods Arkansas, in Germany with the U.S. Air Force, writing a song which inhabits a universe in which Reno, Nevada, and San Antonio, Texas, are in California. (Or perhaps the other way around.)
The same guy would later record a single called "I've Been Everywhere," which when originally written referenced a long sequence of towns and places in Australia.
It's blowing my MIND, man.
That was actually Scott Podsednik.
That's a question left for the lawyers. Wasn't the Aaron Burr/Alexander Hamilton duel deliberately fought this way so that neither protagonist could be prosecuted for murder in case one man died? I seem to remember reading that one of them fired from New Jersey and the other from New York in order to not violate that particular state's laws. Of course nowadays most juridictions are more likely to extradite you for this type of thing so, as attractive as bi-state dueling might be, this method of settling disputes is likely closed.
No, their duel was in Weehawken, which is across the Hudson from Manhattan.
No, that's a Dukes of Hazzard episode you're remembering.
You are correct sir. Apparently, in those days there was still some dispute over the border between New Jersey & New York and this lead to several duels being fought there because it was to a certain extent, "no mans land", and the parties involved could be reasonably sure not to be interrupted. In retrospect Hamilton may have wished for some interruption but there we are.
I'll see you, and raise you one So tired of Roy Orbison.
At any rate, one of the greatest things I ever heard was on a Fresh Air interview of Nick Lowe, who was Cash's son-in-law for a time: Nick Lowe impersonating Johnny Cash. "Wellll, Nick ..." God it was hysterical.
Well, I just learned something. I thought Hank Snow's version was the original.
Me too, but that was Before Wikipedia.
How did any of us know anything back then?
(Apparently, she was just short of 16 & he was 19, so it wasn't quite as unsavory as it might've otherwise seemed.)
But where did they bury the survivors?
Lili Von Shtupp is tired of playing the game.
In the holes the Japanese had them dug. And bayoneting Earhart and Noonan forward into the graves was a good way to do it. Bullets are a waste and the bodies may have to be pushed in. And even though the bayonet takes time to kill them, it's not like they were going to be in any condition to dig their way out.
I take it every so often your baby gets the urge to roam, and is not coming home.
