Pretty Girl Update! - Alison Brie (+ Gillian Jacobs)
ALISON:
“With a shoot like this, you’re negotiating these positions together: ‘Can you move your crotch a little to the left? Really get it up there.’ ”
GILLIAN:
“The next day we were texting each other: Are you sore, too?’ ”
ALISON:
“When you’re having sex with someone, it really is similar to putting yourself out there and saying, ‘I think this is funny and I hope you laugh.’ ”
GILLIAN:
“Fake it till you make it. That’s what my drama teacher used to say.”
ALISON:
“I don’t think she was talking about sex.”
GILLIAN:
“The episode where I made out with my supposed lesbian friend was the first time I’d kissed a girl. I was terrified.”
ALISON:
“Aw, Gil! You should have let me know! We could have practiced!”
Cheers

Don't Forget To Turn Off the Light At the End Of the Tunell
Sometimes the truth is impossible to discern (Verbal Kint was Kaiser Soze?). At other times it is painfully obvious (Insert Scooby-Doo mystery). Often it is nothing but nonsensical blather (Paging Night. Paging M. Night.) But, when that wave crests just as the sun rises over the mountain top, truth can be both nuanced and all-important (The 1st rule is...).
When I see war, I see this...
The Vietnam war and the social movement surrounding it were clear. There were hawks and doves, hippies and squares, those looking forward and those looking back. It was a seminal time (get your mind out of the gutter) in American history. A throng of well educated idealists led a charge against imperialism and neo-manifest destiny, a bold cultural cacophony that fed both the heart and the mind. The best and the brightest fought for a nation that might allow the vision of the world's greatest country to endure. Against a backdrop of teenagers' blood a massive groundswell poured to life with the battle as crystalline as Swavorski.
The enemy we struggle against today is not nearly so well-defined. He has lurked for longer than we care to remember, reveling in our failures and betraying the worst in us into a way of life. For a population born with every advantage possible, with gifts and magics that our forefathers could scarcely imagine, we choose to wallow in the ostentatious mire of ignorance and sloth. The enemy is the mud on the mirror, the anger or denial that you might feel at accepting this. We are failures. We are babbling, incoherent fools. We have lost sight of any sort of human values and degraded into pigs at the trough. Wow, that was a terrific episode of Ice Loves Coco, another miracle of modern musicianship from Big Time Rush, and, OMG, what an incisive tweet from @KhloeKardashian. My favorite nugget of radiant intellect --
Khloe had the classless audacity to post these photos of her 13 and 15 year old half-sisters (and some friends). Notice her watermark if you think I'm kidding.
If we were actually doing anything, I might entertain the concept. Half intense production needs the balance of half debauchery.
Meet me at Galt's Gulch. Bring some liquor... And Kate Upton.
Cheers.

I had a nip slip and I loved it! But my twat is fine!

A Quest Called Tribe
Here is what you need to know:
(1) Mitch Talbot (2-6, 6.33) has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained lower back and Ezequiel Carrera (.250) has been added to the 25-man roster. This is almost definitely a short term stay for Zeke as Jeanmar Gomez (0-1, 4.91) will be recalled to start on Sunday. Gomez skipped the AAA All-Star game and threw four passable innings for Mahoning Valley last night, allowing a run on five hits with three K's. Another position player will likely be discarded on Monday (the Tribe currently has 15 on the 25-man) to make room for Zach McAllister's return to start one of the double header games against the Twins. Z-Mac (0-0, 4.50) tossed two scoreless innings for the International League as he got the start in the game that Jeanmar declined. Assuming that Austin Kearns (.212) saved his season with that home run last week, I would assume either Travis Buck (.256) or Shelley Duncan (.240) to get the boot.
(2) As suggested earlier in the week, Scott Barnes' season is likely over. The injury is currently described only as a sprain, but expect the organization to be overly cautious with the promising left hander. Here is a clip of the play during which Barnes (7-4, 3.68) sustained the injury.
(3) The shuffling of pitchers for the Clippers will give Adam Miller an excellent opportunity to take the next step in his unlikely return to prominence. Miller (1-2, 3.86) has now piled up 28 innings, one shy of his most since 2007.
(4) Injury Updates --
- Lonnie Chisenhall (.267) has deemed himself ready to go in tonight's series opener against the Orioles. The Chiz Kid is sporting a scab on his cheek and some serious red eye, but avoided a whole slew of more serious complications from a fastball to the face.
- Alex White (1-0, 3.60) threw about 20 fastballs in a bullpen session yesterday at the Prog. It was his first work off of a mound since landing on the disabled list with a finger injury in late May. White is entirely on track for an August return to action.
- Shin-Soo Choo (.244) had the final cast removed from his broken left hand earlier this week and x-rays revealed that all of the surgically inserted screws have remained in place. We will learn more on Choo's timetable for return after his follow-up visit tomorrow. Here's hoping his rehab brings him through Cow-Town.
(5) Over the past five seasons, the Indians are combined 187-177 (.514) in the second half. Applying this to the 73 games remaining for the Wahoos gives a record of 38-35 for the second half and a final tally of 85-77. Or exactly what I predicted when the season began. Will 85 wins be enough to take the Central? Maybe, that is why they play the games. One thing is for sure, it is going to be fun to watch.
Cheers.
