LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are going to ride their starting pitchers and offense as far as they can take them this postseason. So far, so good, as Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Mookie Betts beat the Reds 8-4 on Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium to sweep the wild card series in two games.
Generally speaking, these are all parts that look like pipe with integral valves, which allow for the restriction (shutoff) of water in case of emergency.
Don't think if it's the same scene, but we talked about the supermarket parking lot scene from that movie this last weekend in Boston. Don't remember how we got on the subject.
No, it's not the same scene. The "Stop in the Name of Love" scene is while Evelyn Couch (Kathy Bates) is exercising at her home.
There are two different parking lot scenes. My guess is that you were talking about the scene where she says, "Face it, girls. I'm older and I have more insurance."
Former California football player and 2025 NFF College Football Hall of Fame electee Alex Mack will be honored jointly Saturday by the National Football Foundation (NFF) & College Football Hall of Fame with an NFF Hall of Fame On-Campus Salute Presented by Fidelity Investments® during the first quarter of the Golden Bears' ACC contest against Duke. Kickoff for the game to be televised by ESPN is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. PT.
California volleyball looks to extend its winning streak this weekend in its first two home matches of ACC play, hosting No. 6 Louisville (Friday, 7 p.m. PT) and Notre Dame (Sunday, 1 p.m. PT) at Haas Pavilion. Both matches will be streamed on ACCNX.
The California women's basketball team will be represented by juniors Mjracle Sheppard and Lulu Twidale alongside head coach Charmin Smith at this year's ACC Tip-Off event which takes place Oct. 7 in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Ice Road Truckers is back! It was a series for over 10 years on the History Channel and the last season was around 2016. But, now it's back. It basically follows truckers driving the Ice Roads in northern Canada and Alaska. It's a fun brain-dead thing I watch (like many of the shows I watch). Just want to be entertained.

COCK
AND BULL
IMHO, this is the best ginger beer on the market.
I like Bundaberg, but I'll have to try Cock 'n Bull. First, I have to find it in my area.
A descriptor for parts used in plumbing -
maincock
curbcock
stopcock
corporation cock
meter cock
Generally speaking, these are all parts that look like pipe with integral valves, which allow for the restriction (shutoff) of water in case of emergency.
Stopcock is a fun word. Also poppycock, cockeyed. Is Lady Gamecocks still a thingy?
"Great, that's just what this country needs: a cock in a frock on a rock."

STOP
In the name of love
Evokes a certain scene with Kathy Bates in Fried Green Tomatoes.
Don't think if it's the same scene, but we talked about the supermarket parking lot scene from that movie this last weekend in Boston. Don't remember how we got on the subject.
No, it's not the same scene. The "Stop in the Name of Love" scene is while Evelyn Couch (Kathy Bates) is exercising at her home.

Yes that's the one we were talking about.
Old joke: Stop and Shop merged with A & P and became Stop and P.
