I'm skeptical of his douchey facial hair.
Commit to the full moustache/beard or shave the whole thing.

What are you talking about?
The polymer is formed by free-radical polymerization in aqueous suspension. The fiber is produced by dissolving the polymer in a solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide or aqueous sodium thiocyanate, metering it through a multi-hole spinnerette and coagulating the resultant filaments in an aqueous solution of the same solvent (wet spinning) or evaporating the solvent in a stream of heated inert gas (dry spinning). Washing, stretching, drying and crimping complete the processing.
All natural baby.
If I had guts, I might do the Amish beard.
Why is it so wrong, pdb?
Because you're not Amish?
I assume that the Amish beard has a specific reason for existing and meaning within the Amish faith and was not just a fashion choice; not that you as (presumably) a non-Amish can’t do it, but the Wade Davis look was probably not a result of his faith.
Nice Guys Finish Third - My semantics are a waste of time.
Viva Wikipedia!
For the Amish,
Married men and those over forty grow a beard. Moustaches are forbidden, because they are associated with European military officers and militarism in general.

That's really interesting
not sarcastic at all; I always wondered why they did that, and had no idea.
So what?
I do have a beard, which is something mandated by several religions (Sikhs and Muslim men both really should have beards), but I don’t belong to any of them. I wear jeans, despite their origins in goldrush-era California (I am neither Californian nor goldrusher).
I’d do it because it looks weird. It seems tantamount to wearing some crazy looking glasses. Good on you, Wade Davis.
You won't get this from me often, but when it comes to biscuits,
long live the south, or alternatively, Scotland
The only good thing about the soutyh is the food

Some of their music is good.
And umm… I like cotton?
There are some other things, yes.
But mainly it’s the food.
by Aaron Campeau on Sep 23, 2009 4:39 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm not a huge fan of their food.
Too much butter.
Mmm...
But greens and gumbo and corncakes and such. It’s not all butter.
by Aaron Campeau on Sep 23, 2009 4:44 PM PDT up reply actions
Yes. Some of it is good, some of it is great,
but if you averaged Southern cuisine into one dish, it involves too much butter for my preference.
I can see that, although I of course disagree vehemently.
by Aaron Campeau on Sep 23, 2009 4:47 PM PDT up reply actions
The South may be able to put you to some use then...

Supposed to be mid 90s in downtown LA
through the weekend. Over 100 in the Valley.
I live near the beach so it should drop to the mid 80s by Friday.

Morrow needs a minor league start in which his main objective is to throw all of his pitches (fastballs?) down the middle, regardless of results.
Well I'll be damned
I thought our team had shied away from the whites

Matt Pitman joining in with Rob Johnson mocking on Twitter.
My day is better now.
According to gameday Beltre is sitting on a .961 fielding percentage, he must really suck
I forget hovering the cursor over the position gives information.
I miss the Brandon Morrow that missed bats like a crazy person and walked people like a crazy person.
“Pitch-To-Contact” Morrow sucks at pitching-to-contact and pitching.
You got slurved!
That's something a man in his line of work
should not strive to be good at.
[DELETED ZOMG NO POLITICS]
J. Wilson sucks
Try not to take me too seriously
They're BOOING!
I really wish I was home to watch this.

?
Jack Hannahan took his first drink when he was 14 and his last on July 28, 2000, and so many in between he lost count. He could not tell you how many if he wanted to.
Who even can tell you the exact number of drinks that they’ve had?
Doesn't everyone from/in the Midwest have some sort of
substance abuse problem? I always just assume this is the case.
[DELETED ZOMG NO POLITICS]
Not everyone, I'm sure
But meth is a HUGE problem in the Midwest. Yay for America Undercover…

Drinking problems seem to be pretty prevalent
in people from the Midwest.

Wade Davis' beard is the closest in looks I've ever seen to my own.
Never knew it was Amish style. Ironic, since I’m of Mennonite ancestry.
Shave off the neck-beard, perv-stache, and sparse upper cheek hair — voila!
Whatsup?
Just got home to watch the game, guess Morrow has been holding his own today, eh?

Why the fuck is Batista pitching again
Wak has been making these games really really boring by putting him in
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
I'd rather watch him pitch than Batista
Same goes for Vargas, Kelley, or the ball boy
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
No sense in bringing in Vargas with righties coming up
by Jeff Sullivan on Sep 23, 2009 6:08 PM PDT up reply actions
Jak? Kelley? He only threw 14 pitches yesterday
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
No, but would you really rather see Batista?
And if he is out of commission I was unaware of it.
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
At this point I just can't care
Kelley will probably pitch the 7th.

I just can't stand looking at Batista anymore
We’re so close to being done with him, but I just want it to be over

Another Gutierrez called the post-game show the other night to say that it pleased him to hear someone even attempt to get it right,
Yeah that was cool
The guy sounded really white though

I feel like he had a much better chance of scoring on the first one

HAHAHA Yunibomber hit a triple to put KC on top of Boston….in case you were worried about our nearly-nil wild-card chances…
Haha, I tweeted to Sims that his Gutierrez pronunciation is perfect

I think Mark Lowe looks Australian and also last year a fellow named LFOJL made an image called the Lowen Shark
and Greg Norman’s nickname was the Shark and he was Australian so therefore Mark Lowe is Australian

So I wonder if it's statistically correct to play the third baseman in in that situation.
Seems like it might decrease the probability for giving up one run, but greatly increase the probability that you’ll give up two.
