Edit (Deltas): I don't think my view was completely changed, but I definitely can't argue that statistics can be forgone in politics. I think I was pushing the issue too much into a purely philosophical side of politics dealing in amendments when I should have been thinking about things like regulation, which ends up being what breaks my argument. Using statistics to determine things like the effectiveness of seatbelts is more important than using philosophy to determine whether or not seatbelts infringe on the rights of manufacturers, etc. I still contend that more philosophical debates shouldn't rely on statistics, but my unilateral view has been changed.

Hey all, just wanted to know if anybody had successfully submitted a geofilter for a graduation this year (high school or college). I missed the boat doing it this year since graduation was last week, but I'm going to be a senior next year so if anybody has tried making a filter for a graduation, let me know how it went.

Hey all. The strings that I have on right now need replacing (they were crap to begin with) because I've had them on for about a year and half now and I'm really starting to notice the tone fall off a cliff. I was in class the other day and our director, who also plays cello, brought his personal cello ($60k work of art with a $70k bow from the 1700s in France, no big deal). I was playing it for a couple of minutes and noticed that the tone was really rich and left out a lot of the crunchy sound that I get on my cello, so I asked him about the strings. He said they were gut strings, so I was wondering what your guys' thoughts were on gut strings.

I mainly play in large ensembles with my

Jumped ship in the megadeal, howdy.

I hereby renounce my faith from the Church of Scherzer (on the 5th day praise be to him). Do you have any cult religious followings that I can get into here?

If somebody could do a quick rundown of the lineup for my sake (and probably the sake of a few other ex-natinals) that'd be much appreciated. I hear you guys have this dude Mike Trout (am I pronouncing that correctly?) who is the West coast Harper? Any other pertinent information to help me assimilate would be great.

Well, shit. TIFU.

We feel ya, bro.

I decided to go to the movies at 2pm today, last day of the regular season, everything's wrapped up, what could possibly happen that I would miss? JZ's been solid all season, not gonna be a nail biter, who cares, postseason starts soon, that'll be 20 times more exciting.

a walk among the tombstones is mediocre at best, if you were wondering.
