It was because of Mikan, not Wilt, that the lane went from 6 to 10 and then 12 feet. In fact, there's a story that the owner of the Lakers at first refused to widen the lane on their home court because he was so mad at the new rule.

Minnesotans can be petty like that.

You're joking right?

There's no way I picked a random number from pluasible numbers and got the correct answer.

Wait a sec... I don't know all the political jokes, and I think this is one of them. CNN has had the NY Govenor thing on all morning.

If you aren't aware of the Idaho Senator Larry Craig story, perhaps you wouldn't mind applying for the intern job he has open. I;m sure it's a very interesting "position".

BTW - do you know why there's going to be only 49 contestants in this year's Miss America contest? Because no one wants to be "Miss I-da-ho".

Ballroom stall? Are those for private waltzes?

Yeah. And be careful about putting 2 and 2 together when you're talking about him. He likes that - so I'm told.

Yes, the Dotusauras - from the Greek DOTU (fragrant or fresh nether-region) and SAURUS (lizard).
