The Hall of Fire

Well, I got a good long sleep, hopefully that helps.

My mind is fixated on a sense of dread... I don't know why and I don't like it... I pray for everyone here, and hope we can move on through these troubled times.

Can someone who understands the rules of golf better than me, explain why Tiger's drop yesterday was illegal? Also, if it wasn't Tiger, would any other player been penalized for dropping this way, which matches the intent of the rules, if not the strict interpretation? Similarly, why was the 14 year...

I think I'm at a point in life where I have to reset my expectations. That doesn't mean anything bad, but it's very hard, and depressing in some respects, and depressing is something I really need to get away from. I think I'm also struggling with living alone again after staying with my family for ...

Things have gone so well for me, but my mind is apparently not able to accept all of that, and I"m struggling. I just want to be able to perform as everyone around me would like, but I'm afraid I won't live up to those expectations. Well, I know I cannot, so I am struggling with just trying to ...

we all could have paired well with the doctor... because we're awesome.

I'm a big fan of amy and rory, prim.... but with the doctor, we all have to realize that time moves on.

I can't wait until the 50th... but I can't wait for any new doctor episodes... so not sure what that means

I don't know if there are words to describe this feeling...

Also, the new episode was awesome!

Thanks, Prim, that's awesome!

Well, in the end, I don't think it will change anything, but perhaps it will open some people's eyes. I suppose it will actually take a drone strike on an american before people will really care, but then again, the government has much more subtle ways of killing its domestic enemies, so its unlikel...

And I wanted to post about this because for the first time in ages and ages I find myself agreeing with a conservative Republican! Paul isn't really a conservative Republican. Or rather, he is more a libertarian than anything else, particularly on this issue. The other Republicans that are joining ...

I honestly don't understand the drone issue, the line being drawn seems insane.

He's now hitting 10 hours. It seems he can go on for a while. It will be interesting to see if he stops after the west coast news cycle.

In case you somehow missed it, Senator Rand Paul is conducting a "real" filibuster today. It's something that is rare enough I thought I'd mention it simply for the novelty.

Thanks for the prayers everyone, it all went fine .

I'm not close to most of my extended family, but one aunt and uncle are the exception. They have tried to stay close to us even though we're all the way across the country, and of all of them, this uncle is probably the closest to me as far as interests and personality go. He's having a catheter ins...

My only disappointment was that Moonrise Kingdom didn't win anything.

Well that and Bradley Cooper gave the best acting performance of anyone in Silver Linings Playbook, so it's weird that Jennifer Lawrence won and he didn't... but the competition was pretty hard in the lead actor category.

Well, parts are sad, but it has a happy ending. I was actually surprised. It has lots of bad language, but it doesn't take actors to do that. Everyone's crazy, and that does take some acting, but I don't know why it would add up to one of the "best pictures." It's basically a romantic come...

I just saw this yesterday without even knowing it was an oscar contender in a bunch of categories.

I thought it was a great film, but I'm surprised it was up for best picture.

I believe fundamentally everyone has to make a choice, God or No God. In my mind this boils down to the concept of Free will... without the choice, there is no free will, and with that choice, everything we do matters ultimately. I have long been bothered by the fact that death would be the end of t...

That is an interesting thought . I"ll have to think about it.

still not sure why this quarter is not enticing me as the last one did. Maybe I am thinking too far ahead and failing to enjoy what I have now. I feel like I'm moving backwards... which is silly... but scary because I've been really happy moving forwards. I'm just really tired of uncertainty... and ...
