Speaking of ego, it's actually pretty apropos that Rock was able to take the slap...compose himself...and continue, if not a bit awkwardly, live for millions of people.

His new tour is called Ego Death. Very fitting that he was able to rise above such a wild situation where most would lose it due to their ego or some fabricated image they'd worry about. He stayed in the moment and did his job like a pro.

Also I think he can still use the 1 free transfer, his first one to here he sat a season.

Hmm maybe. The bylaw doesn't seem to distinguish with whether or not you received a prior waiver or excpetion, just whether or not you transferred previously from a 4 year institution.

That said, the Grad Transfer Waiver seems easy to clear. Would be some total BS if he didn't get a waiver...again.

Hahaha. I hate when people talk during movies.

But I’ve always told my wife, kids, family and friends to move away from your car if you have car trouble and are on the side of the interstate. Folks are driving way too fast and are way too distracted in the best of conditions - let alone in the conditions those folks were dealing with.

Very good chance that someone driving too slow is what caused that to begin with.

Almost wrecked many times going over Afton in Virginia because someone decided they wanted to drive 45 mph in dense fog or snow.

Years ago, I used to drive from Harrisonburg to Richmond a lot. Afton could be a challenge.

Temper has nothing to do with where you are from, what color you are, or how intelligent you are. I like Sowell, but that is dumb.

I believe Sowell's argument is based on culture.

I don't see how one could deny cultures tend to inform folks of norms of behavior, especially when conflict arises.

I've never thought of it as a secret as to how Scots-Irish culture preciptated the region, especially in terms of conflict. The Hatfield and McCoys aren't just a family, but a stereotype of how conflicts arise and are handled. Even research shows a higher rate of violence in the southeast when it comes to 2 individuals that know each other and have a conflict.

Has nothing to do with intelligence, as Sowell points out. Same as for other groups that he points out. It is about culture in his opinion. I don't see anything wrong with critiquing our culture, especially as an Appalachian Scots-Irish. I think it could be better, as a whole. Even America in general. Too much about popularity, and yes even sports, not enough about praising everyday careers like doctors, engineers, accountants, teachers, computer programmers, IT, etc. Basically pushing education as a higher thing to reach for rather than praying and pouring in tons of resources to other things. That's jmo but there are a few cultures, even within America, that are superior in some ways. I'm not afraid to say it. We could do better.

Worldle. Got globle in 4 guesses.
