@keisertroll does that mean you started when you were, relative to the other kids, in your mid-40s? Like, you were 10?

@boyofdestiny Damn! If only I'd kept all those Kahn's All Beef Franks Mets jerseys I got at Kids Jersey Day (which fell right around my birthday). I would have been THE HIPPEST in college.

@Abe Sauer YES!!! And their jerseys are quite nice. Really high quality, not the super-scratchy polyester affairs of my youth.

@hockeymom I may have given the World Series Club Mets a break because I'm a Mets fan. It's no accident that the Byrne & Storm, P.C. Yankees didn't even make the list.

@zoom It speaks to me as a Jew who wishes there were lots of Jewish brewers in the Hartford area.

Calderon is mistranslated. It means "he doesn't know how to cover the ox's eye," not the bullseye. If that's an idiomatic expression that implies more than it states, I don't know about it. (My experience with oxen is also too limited to hazard a guess.) "Ox-eye" in Spanish also means porthole, like on a ship, but fake Calderon's tweet isn't phrased right for that meaning.

On Is Violence "Crazy"?
We only think killing makes a person crazy when it's not logically connected to the killer's greater purpose or to some understandable emotion: Bin Laden's not crazy (arguably) because he uses murder in a calculated way to bring about a certain goal (again, arguably!). A guy who kills his wife's lover isn't crazy because, well, we get that - it's no fun when someone cheats on you. But this guy who shot Giffords, we look at what he did and all we can say is, "What the hell?"

On Mayor Old
@Catatronic I was going to say pretty much the same thing: how about if I take half ($9.75 b) and in trade, I suddenly become 35? Because that way I'd only lose four months while gaining more money than has been cumulatively earned by me and my ancestors since forever.
