Heh, but did you:
Own a 'Fastload' cartridge and wire a reset button into it?
Wire your drives to switch between device #8,9,10,11?
Attend a Jim Butterfield lecture?
Know what "sys 64738" does in a c-64? (No fair Googling!)
Know what c-64 DOS enhancer also "Makes great coffee"?
Own an SX-64? (My friend Kev had one, the only one I've ever seen in person)
http://oldcomputers.net/sx64.html
A couple high-school buddies and I piled into my buddies car and went to a computer show called M.A.R.C.A. (mid-atlantic something something), a GREAT Commodore show. Lotsa lectures, venders, freebies. Three-day trip as unsupervised teens, and it's to a computer show. Oh yeah, I've got geek cred.
Broderbund gave a demo of a brand new game called "Raid on Bungling Bay" at our user group meeting (The PCG, "Pittsburgh Commodore Group", second-largest user group in the world at that time). One of the best action games for the c-64, and I'd say half the auditorium had already pirated it.(no, I'm not proud, but that was part of the zeitgeist of the early days of computers) One of the members got up and proceded to kick ass in the game, while the guy giving the demo wondered how the hell he was so good so fast. . . 😀
A couple guys I went to 'computer school' with wrote this steaming pile of shit:
http://www.answers.com/topic/spider-man-an...-doom-s-revenge
They also demo'ed this at the PCG, and I remember trying to come up with kind words for them afterwords. Note that the publisher was called Paragon software. A better name would've been Travesty.
Damn I'm old. . . -
#11 HEHEHEHE!
Ok, you got me a few points.
I made one mistake. I had a 1581, 3 1/2 Floppy Drive for my C128.
I did however help run a Commodore 64 BBS that was the proud owner of an 8280, Double 8 Inch Floppy Drive. Get this. My friend bought it at a swap meet in Dallas. It was pulled from some government site and sold. He was 15 and saving for a car. Instead, he plopped 1200 down for that bad boy. We had one of the coolest online file sharing BBS's in the whole state. ;-)
As for wiring, I took a DIN plug, cut it, and spliced the left and right audio to RCA, then ran it to my Home Stereo. You can't imagine how cool digitized music is on a pair of Fisher 15's. hehehehe
To this day, I still have my 300 Baud Commodore modem. I paid $70 used. In order to use it, I had to manually dial, then hit ATA when I heard the other end pick up. You better believe it was a pain in the ass manually dialing Busy BBS's during Peak Time...... hehehe
Memories..... -
#12 ooo lordy, my experience is very co-incident with Atomms, I ran my own BBS, I have a 10Mb HDD for my C-128 that ran my BBS. Wrote the whole thing myself. It was great. I used it to win my 6th grade science fair. -
#13 Wheres the big geek smily when you need it.... LOL
At the time, we couldn't even touch a 10MB hard drive for Commodore's. They were something like 10K. -
#14 I think I love you guys 😉
Oh wow. Where to start my geekdom.
DocJon and I go way back to the C64 and Amiga days. I have known Lexx since the early Amiga days as well. Lexx ran his own BBS called NoGurusHere and was REALLY into FIDONET!!
Just ask him sometime. 😉
My very first computer exposure was on a mainframe in the 70's playing Star trek. That did it, that was just so cool I had to get into computers. I never looked back 😉
I then started out on a TRS-80 back in 79-80. No sound so I put an old radio on top of the monitor and tuned it in to static. The monitor generated some sounds that way. Worked great for the Star Wars game I had. Just ASCII graphics 😉
I also did the usual hacking of the C64. I actually taught myself assembly language on it and actually wrote some cool stuff. I also got paid for creating a custom Amiga Basic DB program for a beer distributor on the 64/128.
Got into the Amiga big time. I actually was one of the first people I knew to have a HD. I paid a ton of money for a 80MB HD. 😉
Had good times with the Amiga. 😉
Used PCâs since the old two slice toaster days at work but actually went PC for home around 94 with a 486 DX2/66 😉
DocJon and I, along with other friends, used to play Doom all connected together on a table with thinnet 😉
Been playing FPS games ever since 😉
See we can geek with the best of them 😉 -

VERY cool gadget. Even with all the Commodore computers I've owned. my friends have owned, and with the PET's my computer school had, I never saw one of those. . .although we used 8-inch disks on the IBM System 32's & 34's we had at the school.Atomm wrote:

Probably far better than the sound I got from wiring in my c-64 to my cheap-ass Emerson all-in-one stereo (with 8-track!) using a knife switch. . .Atomm wrote:

Memories.....
The 300-baud I had, I had to manually dial, listen for the screech, remove the plug from the earpiece and plug it into the modem. I eventually graduated to a 2400-baud that would dial out without needing to use a phone, so I wrote a telecom program with a wardialer built in. In compiled BASIC :oops: It worked, though, and I could log in and do my bbs'ing with it. . .except if I wanted to DL files or play a game like RISK on-line.
I knew Pal would be around to share his geek cred. That 80-meg HD of his, I won't say how much he paid for it, but I will say I've owned cars that cost less. :shock:
Lexx's BBS was a top-notch Amiga board.
Heh, my favorite piece of geek-cred: When I went to computer school, some folks recognized my name from a program I'd written to organize and search your software collection. I got them the latest update, and I was asked to autograph the program disk. 😄 -
#16 I know my 10Mb was about 3k. hehehe good ol days. Of course I was a baby then. I know my 300 baud was about the same price as my c-128 was. of course my BBS was sponsored by my school so even though I was under 12 I had the monetary support of a town. So I had a pool of 3 2400 baud modem to my BBS. -

I feel so at home right now...
One of us..one of us... -
#19 LOL!
Maybe we should change our recruiting message......
Did you own a C64?
Was your first modem an overpriced 300baud?
Was your first "online" experience the local BBS?
Do you like to game?
Yep, us too! You are already One Of Us, so why aren't you dropping by GamersRadio.com? -
#20 Was LORD once one of your favorite games?
Do you know what a "Door Game" is
Did you stay up til midnight to get "Utopia" turns in before your rivals?
We did too, come join us at Gamersradio.com -
#21 Did you stay up til midnight to get "Utopia" turns in before your rivals?
Wow! I forgot all about that game..... I remember dialing in just before midnight to take my turn, then coming back after midnight to take another turn. Wasn't that around turn 20? :-)
A little later, but a game I loved to play online was called Wasteland. It was on X286 PC BBS's. I think there was a network version through Fido.net.
Memories...... -
#22 Here are a few. Lets start a list 😉
"Have you ever ran up a $60+ bill from CompuServ playing ZORK online all night ?"
"Have you ever logged into a 4 modem line C64 chat system?"
"Was 2400 baud ever cool to you?"
"Did you get excited when V.90 came out?"
"Do you know what FIDO.NET is?"
"Did you ever take out a loan to buy a 80MB HD?"
"Did you buy floppies by the gross?"
"Were BBS games ever cool to you?"
"Was the best tool in your box a Floppy disk notcher?"
"Did you cut a hole in the bottom of your 1541 Floppy drive so you could align it easily?"
I will think of more. 😉
😉 -
#23 HEHEHE!
I didn't need a disk notcher. I had a 3rd party drive called a Zip Drive. I could flip a switch and it would read/write to the backside as if it was notched. There were something like 10 dip switches on that thing. I don't remember what all it did, but I think I could even turn on compression to squeeze more on a disk. The only problem with doing that was my 1541 couldn't read it.
Heck, I got excited with CNet BBS added the ability to push your speed from 300 to 450 after connecting. -
#24 Geek bastards! -
#25 Three hole punch for me. I had until last year a set of floppies with my bbs on it. I tried to read it on a c64 emulated drive and had no luck. I beleive I destroyed the disks therafter -
#26 I think I just threw away my last set of C64 Disks. Can you believe I held on to Racing Destruction set for over 15 years.... lol -
#27 Wow, who didn't have a BBS here? I ran a 2 line one for about 4+yrs catering to the Amiga... hmmm.. yah I had 129:140.1 on fidonet too. Started at 2400 baud, so not as bad as you guys 🙂 -
#28 I met Lexx through a mutual friend of his because of the Amiga.
I met DocJon because of a mutual friend of his through the Amiga BBS Lexx ran.

Not a clue what BBS is.
I might have know what all this meant had my 1st pc in 7th grade, I guess about 87', not get stolen. They did leave my Tandy 286 though.
I got board of drawing colored lines and had just about burnt up the 1 game we had on a 5" floppy, don't remember the name but it was some off road quad racer game. Boy did those joystick suck.
I remember writing at least 20 lines of code to have a few colored bars on the screen. -

You know what though. let him do his thing. Dave is Dave and he was always a bit weird so this is just the next station on his really far out weird trip.....
He is almost like Pat Boone. Remember his "In a Metal Mood" CD?? He was regressing back to his 20's, or what he wishes his 20's were. He would come out on stage with the earring and leather attire. WOW! Now THAT was a culture shock!!!

#63 What really messed me up was Dave's behavior. It looks like he was trying to smile. . .and what the hell was up with his right arm?

Definitely a new meaning to the term "Bad Ass"some guy wrote:WOW!! UNBELIEVABLE
This may be a first...
A couple from Montana were out riding on the range, he with his rifle
and she (fortunately) with her camera. Their dogs always followed them,
but on this occasion a Mountain Lion decided that he wanted to stalk the dogs
(you'll see the dogs in the background watching). Very, very bad decision...
The hunter got off the mule with his rifle and decided to shoot in the
air to scare away the lion, but before he could get off a shot the lion
charged in and decided he wanted a piece of those dogs. With that, the mule
took off and decided he wanted a piece of that lion. That's when all hell
broke loose... for the lion.
As the lion approached the dogs the mule snatched him up by the tail
and started whirling him around. Banging its head on the ground on every
pass. Then he dropped it, stomped on it and held it to the ground by the
throat. The mule then got down on his knees and bit the thing all over a
couple of dozen times to make sure it was dead, than whipped it into the air
again, walked back over to the couple (that were stunned in silence) and
stood there ready to continue his ride... as if nothing had just happened.
Fortunately even though the hunter didn't get off a shot, his wife got
off these 4...

#91 HOLY CRAP!
Don't piss that mule off.... wow!
From the almighty snopes. I like your story better.Origins: According to Steve Richards, who wrote a couple of articles about them for Western Mule Magazine, these pictures date from 2002 or 2003 and show Berry, a now 11-year-old mule, owned by a 25-year-old hunter named Jody Anglin. The incident depicted took place in southwestern New Mexico, and came about as Berry the mule grew more aggressive over time in his pursuit of mountain lions with Jody:
When Jody first got the mule and after Jody shot the first lion out, Berry casually came over to the lion and just nuzzled the lion and casually nibbled it. With each lion Berry just got more aggressive. Jody said it didn't take more than two lions and Berry got really aggressive to the lion and couldn't wait to get the cat.
However, the text description accompanying these photographs is somewhat inaccurate, as Berry didn't actually kill the mountain lion â the mule picked it up and tossed it around only after it was already dead:
The lion was dead before the mule Berry took and shook the lion. A lion is a powerful and lethal predator and can easily kill a mule â however a mule can be quite an adversary.

I think it was Arch Enemy that opened - music kicked ass untill...their lead singer...a chick 🤔 started the screaming - I would so own a karaoke cd of them but the screaming just isn't my thing. Opeith (sp?) also played they have very minimal screaming - in fact I really enjoyed them, maybe later I'll see about the proper spelling of their name you guys should check em out, would be nice to hear on GR1.
Lamb of God was up 3rd.....I learned I don't like them at all 😄 there was some 90 yr old dude on the end of aisle headbanging to them though - watching father time get into them was very VERY entertaining.

#136 Have hiccups you can't get rid of? This might be the answer 😛Some Medical Journal wrote:Department of Inernal Medicine, Bnai Zion Medical Center, Haifa, Israel.
A 60-year-old man with acute pancreatitis developed persistent hiccups after insertion of a nasogastric tube. Removal of the latter did not terminate the hiccups which had also been treated with different drugs, and several manoeuvres were attempted, but with no success. Digital rectal massage was then performed resulting in abrupt cessation of the hiccups. Recurrence of the hiccups occurred several hours later, and again, they were terminated immediately with digital rectal massage. No other recurrences were observed. This is the second reported case associating cessation of intractable hiccups with digital rectal massage. We suggest that this manoeuvre should be considered in cases of intractable hiccups before proceeding with pharmacological agents.
PMID: 2299306 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] -

I can see all this except the splines. Just can't see how a book can be appreciated without some wear and tear. Kinda hard to read a book maybe opened about 40%. I like to see the entire 2page spread open enough to speed read it correctly 🙂

I WOULD NOT put such a thing past Paully . .what about the angle of his head though, how quickly it moves almost parallel to the ground?
I dunno now, even in Texas, I wonder if such a thing would happen, especially with the security arriving only AFTER the punch. He's still something of a name, and I would expect any club he's in would be quick to protect him. -

Bubba, as someone who worked as Cell-Phone call center rep(customer service, Change of Financial Responsibilty, New Accts) I well and truly appreciate the stupidity that is to be found in call centers. When I needed to involve other departments, I often (read:always) found it was necessary to call 2 or 3 other reps before I could find one that could understand the problem and what I needed of them.
Honestly, the language skills, and lack thereof, was shocking. Towards the end of that job, I pretty much hung up whenever I found I was talking to the reps from India. There was a very basic language barrier that had to be crossed before getting to the tech, and in my experience, I seldom got to the tech issue. -

11 FACTS ABOUT BRUCE CAMPBELL
1)Bruce Campbell does not get older, he gets cooler.
2)Bruce is so cool, his parents named him 'Bruce' to take the edge off his coolness, rightly fearing that his pure, unadulterated cool would be too much for the general public to handle. It failed, however, as he made the name 'Bruce' cool by association.
3)Bruce Campbell is single-handedly holding back the progress of global warming.
4)Bruce Campbell is so cool, he overclocks his computer without any mechanical means of heat dissipation whatsoever.
5)Bruce Campbell is so cool, his beer gets COOLER as he holds it.
6)Bruce Campbell is so cool, he must salt his driveway whenever precipitation falls, no matter what form, no matter the time of year.
7)Bruce Campbell is so cool that, even if Chuck Norris COULD kick his ass, Chuck could never conceive of any possible reason why he would want to.
8)Fonzie stole Bruce Campbell's leather jacket and forever rode the coattails of Bruce's residual cool.
9)Bruce Campbell is to cool what Jack Bauer is to badass, only without the need for a fat geek with a speech impediment and a snarky nerd-chick to back him up. But, being so amazingly cool, Bruce doesn't hold that against Jack.
10)Bruce Campbell is so cool, he delivered all the dialog in his Old Spice "Experience" commercial extemporaneously. . .in one take.
11)Bruce Campbell is so cool, he'd forgive Sarge his insolence and buy him a beer. A good microbrew. That's how he rolls.

Subject: The power of the finger-BEWARE
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver, who cut
Right in front of a pickup truck, causing the driver to drive onto the
Shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough
That he hung his arm out his window and gave the woman the finger.
"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely
And wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me
In
Traffic, and here's why:
I drive 48 miles each way every day to work. That's 96 miles each
Day.
Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the
Bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway. There are 7 cars every 40
Feet
For 32 miles. That works out to 982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars.
Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper, I
Figure I
Pass at least another 4000 cars. That brings the number to something
Like 36,000 cars that I pass every day. Statistically, females drive
Half of these.
That's 18,000 women drivers! In any given group of females, 1 in 28
Has
PMS.
That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as
Dissatisfying
Or unrewarding. That's 449.
According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females
Have
Seriously considered suicide or homicide.
That's 98.
And 34% describe men as their biggest problem.
That's 33.
According to the National Rifle Association, 5% of all females carry
Weapons and this number is increasing.
That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female
That has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has
Seriously considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Give her the finger?
I DON'T THINK SO! -
#288 A Case For Drinking More Beer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo, and when the herd is hunted, the slowest and weakest ones at the back are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular culling of the weakest members.
In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.
In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.
That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers. 😀 -

Victor Hugo almost set the worldâs record for short letter writing. A month or so after the octavo edition of Les Miserables was published he wrote to his publisher the following:
?
Victor Hugo
Hurst & Blackett, the London publishers, not to be outdone by the master, produced the worldâs shortest letter when they wrote back to Hugo on the firmâs letterhead:
!
and did not sign it. Nobody could write anything shorter that would convey any meaning.
The article goes on to say that Hugo holds the record for longest sentence, from the book he was writing to his publisher about, "Les Miserables.":
This enormous single sentence contains 823 words and is about 4,500 times as long as the letter he wrote to his publisher

Oh I HATE HIMMMMMMMMMMMMM HATE HATE VIAL UTTER HATRED!!! DIE DIE DIE!!!!!
He is the worse actor EVER! It makes my skin crawl to know that he makes tons of money doing those shitty lines. How can that show be successful. The original CSI has good characters and they are scientists, you can tell. This guy has no science background, is he actually one or a cop or a detective? I mean who is this lame ass guy????? ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
My life will be much better off if his career (LAUGHABLE) tanks and he is back to selling insurence... It is not fair that is is on a successful show when there are probably hundreds of actors out there that can actually deliver a line and are waiting tables.
Also he looks exactly like Geoffrey the giraffe from Toys R' US. Look at two pictures side by side and you will see it every time you see David. 😉

I haven't researched it thoroughly, but I think this would cost THOUSANDS to make, to say nothing of the time and effort. One especially geeky point of interest: You can have the original voice actor say whatever lines you want for adding to your creation (for an undisclosed cost). Act fast though, he can't be young.

I don't blame you for not getting the Venn Diagram. That's one of those things they taught in Jr High that REALLY had no use in the real world. There are better ways to indicate sets and subsets.

The point, was, I think, not to look like a geek, but to see how a different viewpoint changed your level of immersion and how "real" a situation feels. It's REAL, but it's a different viewpoint, and the person that is 'you" does not look like you - will you perceive what happens as less real, and will you act differently?
That the guy looks like the biggest nerd since the "Tron Guy" is just a happy side-effect 🙂

I did not hate "The Sarah Conner Chronicles" at all. I just think it lacked a certain feel to it. it felt rushed to me. Maybe it will grow on me more. Hell Rainbow is in it so that is always a good thing 😉
I am more disappointed in "The Bionic Women". Well it was just the pilot. I hope it grows a bit, it was a bit confusing and the characters seemed flat to me. They really left a LOT go without any explanation, or very very little. Maybe the gaps will fill in as it goes. I think it needed a 2 hour pilot.
The actress that plays the Bionic Women was on an English Serial called EastEnders (Playing Zoe Slater) that I have been watching since the very beginning. I never missed an episode since 1986 when it started.
Wheaton is trying really really hard to break out of the kid image. he has been on ATOS a number of times. He seems cool but tries to be too serious I think. Overall though I think he is a good guy.DocJon wrote:

I was watching this episode of "Dinner for Five" on Youtube, and Seth MacFarlane(Family Guy/American Dad creator) mentioned how he had a ticket to be on the first plane to hit the WTC on Sept 11, 2001 (OK, that's not what the ticket said, but you get the idea), but was late getting to the airport and missed the plane. . .his travel agent gave him a time that was 1/2 hour late. Also, he was hung over, so let that be a lesson to you boys and girls 🙂
Every episode, every Stewie-Brian scene, every Patrick Stewart gaze at the back of Stan's daughter's head, is a precious gift 🙂
Oh, also, for extra funny, know this: Stan (who is voiced by Seth MacFarlane) Smith's daughter Hayley is voiced by Seth's real-life daughter, Rachael.

Can't remember the name, or where it was exactly - I remember it had rockets from the space program set up outside, actual space capsules on display inside, various planes set up outside. I think a precursor to the Concorde was on display there as well - it was MONSTROUS, IIRC. Damn, wish I knew the name of the place.
Also went to the Smithsonian Air & Space museum. I highly recommend ANYONE who has any curiosity or interest in the world at all to visit the Smithsonian. You will need 2 days at least. You will see amazing things. -

#462 Worst of best foods in America. You be the judge.
1. The Worst Food in America
Outback Steakhouse Aussie Cheese Fries with Ranch Dressing
2,900 calories
182 g fat 240 g carbs
Even if you split this "starter" with three friends, you'll have downed a dinner's worth of calories before your entree arrives. Follow this up with a steak, sides, and a dessert and you could easily break the 3,500 calorie barrier.

#465 I've got one response with regard to both ePhil's Kitchen Beatbox, and Sarge's bacon cheese fries.
Freakin' Brilliant. Both of them.
If you haven't tried the bacon cheese fries with ranch dressing - and you value your health - DON'T. They're awesome, and you'll want them ALL .THE. TIME. I haven't had them in over a year, and I still crave them like a crack addict. If you think you can do the kitchen beatbox thing though, go for it. 😀

The styling leaves something to be desired, however. Also, the issue of hard-copy has yet to be satisfactorily solved.A 5.5 Terapixel camera would have a resolution of 2 708 012 x 2 031 009 which, printed at 300dpi (photo quality), would result in 9026" x 6770" (229m x 172m), or roughly 1.23% of Central Park.

http://reddit.com/info/2nwli/comments/I remember reading in one of Bob Woodward's books a story from some Pentagon insider.
King Hussein of Jordan was in the US for cancer treatment at the Mayo clinic in 1997-98 before he died. He would periodically stop in at the Pentagon for briefings with senior military brass.
As the story goes at one of the meetings they were discussing military procurement for Jordan and King Hussein was asked what he wants. The King, now completely bald from chemotherapy treatments, put his left baby finger at the end of his mouth and said, in as sinister a way as he could, "One...MILLION...dollars." That was in 1998 so that joke was still funny.
Mike Myers told the same sort of stories about King Hussein doing Dr. Evil impressions according to King Hussein's wikipedia entry. -

If she does, then their big mistake will have been not promoting her enough, won't it?

#526 Sorry Sarge. I don't want to be rude, but I'm gonna take the "Just 'cause it's there doesn't mean I have to watch it" approach on this one. I have a strong dislike for Japanimation (or Manga, or whatever the hell they want to call it now), and the only payoff that would justify my spending more then 20 seconds on it would be sex with an attractive woman. Since I trust that isn't on the table, I'll pass. 🙂

Looking at it again, I think they were trying to STOP the car. . .with their feet. . .which brings your statement it to a new level.
I've pushed a car, uphill, in 6-8 inches of snow, alone, while steering it. It was a small but steep hill, and a small car. Not my brightest moment perhaps, but I'm happy to say I've never thought about "doing a Flintstone" when my car went into a slide, though I may have hit an imaginary brake pedal, hard, more than once as a passenger.
I once fell under a car when someone dropped me off during a snowstorm. I struggled to get up for a few seconds, then started banging on the door, afraid they'd drive over me. Scary moment. -

Bad Vampire movies are a weakness of mine. I'm not a goth boy by any means, but I've always loved Vampire movies like The Lost Boys, Buffy The Vampire Slayer and even Dracula 2000. Plus, the soundtrack was awesome! It's has one of the few "horns" songs I actually like. It's probably because it came out when I was 14. It hit all the right nerves. BTW, I have actually seen The Lost Boys 25+ times.
And the best line from the end of a movie ever.
That was always the one thing I could never stomach about Santa Carla..... all the damn vampires.... -
#624 An old training film describing WW2-era German army weapons. Not sure what country put this out. . .it looks like German army film, with an allied voiceover. It talks about possible German boobytraps - removing the delay fuse from a German grenade and leaving it for Allied troops to use.
Might be interesting if you want to learn a bit about weapons used in WW2 games.
Discussed in the film:
-Karabiner 98K
-MP40
-Pistole 08 "Luger"
-Stielhandgranate 39 "Potato masher"
-MG34
-MG42

#634 Garfield minus Garfield is a blog that reprints Garfield strips and erases all traces of the cat and his thought balloons, turning it into a surreal strip about loneliness and schizophrenia. I've read it a few times, and it's oddly funny and off-kilter.
Jim Davis, the cash-whore that he is, is putting out a book with the altered strips printed side-by-side with the originals.

My suggestion is to visit the blog and avoid the original strips entirely. 🙂

Some guy has posted about a hundred videos on repairs and maintenance of the Saturn S-series cars, which is what I drive.
I recently got tired of the AC in my car not working well. After about ten years, I figured the refrigerant might've leaked out over time. So I hit the 'net, got info, and recharged my AC. For $19.99 plus tax, I have cold AC again. Since the temps often go into the 90's, and sometimes over 100, it's REAL NICE to have AC, especially since I park the car in the sun. 😱

I'm serious here, and you WILL regret clicking on it at work. It's not a snuff film, or any kind of porn, but it's certainly NOT SAFE FOR WORK. I'm not joking.

Wait, is "pink slip" being fired, or is "pink slip" your car's title? Never mind, it's not important right now, just know that it's NOT SAFE FOR WORK!
Honestly. . .why won't you believe me? Damnit, I'm laying it all out there for you, all you have to do is pick it up an run with it! It's as plain as the nose on your face! Don't do it! I TOLD you not to do it!

The custom laser-cut keys for the keyboard was an added level of difficulty and expense, but it does add a cool factor to it's look. The aluminum backing plate for the keyboard is a bit plain. Maybe an aged copper plate would have looked better, with ivory-colored keycaps instead of white. . . -

It's probably a good time to bring this up. I know this thread is fun, but it would be better from a board perspective if these posts were their own thread. You can find things easier and it might actually make the board appear as busy as it actually is. -

I had a chance to work with them in Haifa in the late 80's - what impressed me the most was that no matter your rank or position in the IDF, if you had more experience than someone of higher rank you lead, or showed or trained. Expierence counts more than macho.
Found this pic and just had to share it.

Another example is Danica Patrick. When you see normal shots of her, she's cute, but she's not nearly as hot as all the other GoDaddy chicks they've had in the past. They just present her in a way that gives the allusion that she is.

Robert Culp
August 16, 1930 - March 24, 2010
We were deeply saddened to learn of the death of actor Robert Culp on March 24, 2010. We were fortunate enough to work with Culp during the making of Half-Life 2, when he wrestled invisible headcrabs, expressed a passionate interest in animation, and taught us all how to bring a character to life from words on a page, as he voiced one of gaming's most beloved villains, Dr. Wallace Breen. He will be missed. -

Asked him if they've had any issues with global and national border crossing - he said they were so far no real "issues" other than a few insurance but no real problems.
Mechanically they are in good shape and appear to be really enjoying life.
They were really awesome guys to talk with.
Their website to track their progress and read their story.

He also told me about his first big ride called Turkafrika Turkey to the tip of South Africa and back - that web site is:

Wished him Alayhis salaam (Muslim version of God speed and may he watch over you) and he really was taken back from someone here who knew some of his religion.
- Got a big hand shake for that and a huge smile.
With that he fired up the diesel and took off heading south to Panama. -
#795 LONDON -- Saudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defenses to enable Israeli jets to make a bombing raid on Iranâs nuclear facilities, The Times of London reported Saturday.
In the week that the U.N. Security Council imposed a new round of sanctions on Tehran, defense sources in the Gulf say that Riyadh has agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance for a bombing run on Iran. To ensure the Israeli bombers pass without hindrance, Riyadh has carried out tests to make certain its own jets are not scrambled and missile defense systems not activated. Once the Israelis are through, the kingdomâs air defenses will return to full alert.
âThe Saudis have given their permission for the Israelis to pass over and they will look the other way,â said a U.S. defense source in the area. âThey have already done tests to make sure their own jets arenât scrambled and no one gets shot down. This has all been done with the agreement of the [U.S.] State Department.â
Sources in Saudi Arabia say it is common knowledge within defense circles in the kingdom that an arrangement is in place if Israel decides to launch the raid. Despite the tension between the two governments, they share a mutual loathing of the regime in Tehran and a common fear of Iranâs nuclear ambitions. âWe all know this. We will let them [the Israelis] through and see nothing,â said one.
The four main targets for any raid on Iran would be the uranium enrichment facilities at Natanz and Qom, the gas storage development at Isfahan and the heavy-water reactor at Arak. Secondary targets include the lightwater reactor at Bushehr, which could produce weapons-grade plutonium when complete.

Where Cisco, Sonepar, CITRIX, GTSI, HP, Intell and a few other powere down PC, Printers and monitors - hence "IT" down on Aug 27 (last year a Thursday) over night.
The electrical savings was $45,000 for just powering down overnight, the proceed were spent on paying the power bill for 77 families that could not afford their bill for 30 days and giving the $45,000 tot eh Wounded Warrior Project.
These companies are asking people to be honest and sign up on the site http://poweritdown.org
The assume that this year Aug 27 is on a Friday and will net an aggregate of 3 days off tripling the money available to Wounded Warrior and to help more people in need.
Take a look at the site, sign up if you feel so inclined.... but to me any thing associated with W/W is OK in my book.

#822 As you know I am somewhat of a tree hugger, but I also understand reality, which many of my fellow tree huggers don't get.
Duck this is why I think despite our politics we have been able to get along. This is one of those things where, maybe it's sort of tree-hugger-y, but it's also just easy. There is little to no skin off your back to do this, and yet, it can make things better.
For instance. One of the easiest ways to get better fuel economy (not a huge increase, but an increase) is to inflate your tires properly. By proper inflation, you will get better mileage, save money at the pump, make your tires last longer... and it take almost no effort. So whether you believe in global warming, or other environmental causes, it just makes sense to do. Yet some won't do it because of their politics.... which is hard for me.
In any case not to lecture... Duck I signed up and will have my office do the same. Thanks for showing this. Maybe I will even power down our servers. -

#828 59:50 worthwhile minutes and seconds.
I know I'm labeled as a gun nut and I'm good with that label, I can not think of words to describe how important I think this 59 minute pod cast is worth listening to.
Yes some of it relates to a concealed carry firearm - but there are states, counties and city's here in America that treat pocket knives, multi-tools and even toe nail clippers that hang off your key chain with the same critical eye as a firearm.
There is good information here that deals with civilian employees of businesses who try to detain you for various reasons which are not gun related and only known to them - Michael talks about proper procedures in dealing with them also.
Please - find an hour to listen to this - it may someday be a tool you may need to rely on.
Important information starts at 8:20 and continues until the end.

Don't forget the TSA on that list 😀 -
#830 It's scary how LITTLE the TSA knows about there OWN LAWS.
Had a good fight with a nub one day - after you say those fun words at the ticket counter - "I'd like to declare a firearm"
He kept telling me I was not wrong by not having a TSA approved lock on my hard sided pistol case in my hull baggage - so he could inspect the pistol - I told him and then showed him (had a print out of the law in my pocket) that the lock MUST NOT be an all access TSA style lock and that only the OWNER of the firearm case will have access tot he locked device.
They have thankfully STOPPED slapping bright orange GUN stickers on the outside of luggage too.... a lot of missing bags. A friend of mine though has painted his long gun has eye scorching pink yellow and white with barbie and hello kitty stickers all over the case - so he can visually see it move around the ramp and handling.
But your right Sarge - I have little love for the TSA as they are fully incompetent at protecting us from themselves. -
#831 I would agree, The TSA is a mess, I nearly got in trouble for expressing several issues on my last trip. I learned and knew the rules and pointed out that they were violating them, along with several parts of our country's constitution.
Furthermore Duck, I fully understand dealing with the artificial stigma of being a gun owner, the one thing I have learned is to always
1.) know the laws inside and out for where you are or will be.
2.) never come close to any of the lines of the rules, then people can't push you on them.
But I will admit, I have never traveled on a plane with a gun in possession. -
#832 Duck I listened to the podcast. I would agree fully with nearly everything said. I, as a CCW license holder, have always tried to maintain such composure in the few places I have been in a basic amount of conflict. i.e. while carrying and being confronted by a cop or game warden, my first statement is what I am carrying and why. At which point I am passive until they are satisfied.
The main point of all of this and the thing that people who are carrying need to keep in mind. The arguments about the 2nd amendment are to be held in Court or in places of legislation. This discussion is not to be held at the time of conflict.
I had a much more watered down version of this this past weekend, will explain in vent if you would like. -

#838 First World War officially ends October 02 2010
On the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns fell silent across Europe with the cease fire concluding the hostilities of World War I.
But Germany has continued pay for First World War under its obligations of the 1919 Treaty of Versailles.
Germany was forced to pay the reparations at the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 as compensation to the war-ravaged nations of Belgium and France and to pay the Allies some of the costs of waging what was then the bloodiest conflict in history, leaving nearly ten million soldiers dead.
The initial sum agreed upon for war damages in 1919 was 226 billion Reichsmarks, a sum later reduced to 132 billion, £22 billion at the time.
The bill would have been settled much earlier had Adolf Hitler not reneged on reparations during his reign.
Hatred of the settlement agreed at Versailles, which crippled Germany as it tried to shape itself into a democracy following armistice, was of significant importance in propelling the Nazis to power.
"On Sunday the last bill is due and the First World War finally, financially at least, terminates for Germany,"

#868 A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be very liberal, and among other liberal ideals, was very much in favor of higher taxes to support more government programs, in other words redistribution of wealth.
She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch conservative, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his.
One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the need for more government programs.
The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school.
Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend, and didn't really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying.
Her father listened and then asked, âHow is your friend Audrey doing?â
She replied, âAudrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus; college for her is a blast. She's always invited to all the parties and lots of times she doesn't even show up for classes because she's too hung over.â
Her wise father asked his daughter, âWhy don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA.â
The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's suggestion, angrily fired back, âThat's a crazy idea, how would that be fair! I've worked really hard for my grades! I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!â
The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, âWelcome to the conservative side of the fence.â -

The site is still under construction. Keep coming back and you will be able to see it change right before your eyes. Soon, we will start discussing the world of Music and Gaming. I love both, so why not have a website dedicated to both?!?
Some interesting things you can look forward too from the website.....
Synopsis of the latest news in the recording industry, gaming industry as well as Bios, Interviews, and music from Independent bands, Major Label bands, and Game Developers from all over the world.
Some interesting things you can look forward too from the broadcast....
Streaming broadcast of Major Label artists from mostly Rock, some Rap and a little Techno. Kewl, off the wall shit you may have never heard.
Ex. Did you know Ozzy and Dweezil Zappa did the BeeGees, "Staying Alive", or Busta Rhymes did a song to "Iron Man", with Ozzy singing backup, or Miss Piggy and Ozzy sang Stepenwolfes, "Born to be Wild"? Ozzy is one crazy dude and they are all in rotation on the live broadcast.
Soon, You will get to hear unsigned bands from all over the world, played with the Hottest Major Label Artists you know and love. Of course, sometimes Ill play whatever the hell I want, but your opinion will always count. You will get to talk about Major Label and unsigned artists and decide which bands will get the most airplay.
Im also working on interviews with Musicians, Gaming Industry Insiders and whoever else will talk to an Internet Broadcaster. So, if you have any connections that you dont mind sharing, let me know. I would appreciate the help.

#874 Just an observation - voting herein Idaho - our local area had 28 positions we voted on from State down to city 6 had 3 different party choices R, D, I - 4 had just R and D choices 22 were R only.
You would think that someone in those 22 other positions open for election would think they could "do it better" and run. I just found it interesting that 22 people ran unopposed.
So I did my voting thing and went out on my typical 5 mile Monday walk (pushed off to today to walk to the polling place then circle back around home) and it hit me like a ton of bricks.
We're a free society - WE THE PEOPLE - it always strikes me every two years it may seem like a trivial thing to make your voice heard - or at least try to make your voice heard.
Others do not have this luxury - honor - privileged - to freely stand up and say something. And possibly even more important - do it (mostly) peacefully - ah there is anger because your guy did not win or you did want that levy to add a wing to the hospital and it did not pass for the 42nd time - but nobody is dieing in the streets, buildings are not burning armored cars are not forcing us back into our houses every night at 8pm.
It just hits me every voting cycle just how much we rock. -
#875 Yah it's an old article, but made me laugh. NSFW if you have people that can read and comprehend over your shoulder.

#876 Duck, I agree with We The People, but right now I think our country has been sidetracked by corporations and lobbyists. I don't know how much We The People really exists. I mean, I want it to and I still believe we can take it back, but I don't know if it will really happen.
Congrats on walking 5 miles. No way I could do that. -
#877 Point being is even if it is a spit in the ocean so to speak on what we just did - we still have the opportunity to so it.
The new will probably suck just as much as the old, but hope springs eternal doesn't it? -
#878 Forgot to replay on the walking - 5 Mile Monday, 1.5 Tues and Wed, 5 Thursday, Friday a toss up 0, 3, or 5 - Sat and Sun if I can fit one in and weather is OK I shoot for a 6 to 8 mile-ish stroll.
I like to keep my weekly mileage at about 20 - 25 miles I find that only going 1.5 miles feels like cheating, like I'm not doing anything for my self now.... when I started out in June 1.0 was killer - Why the hell am I doing this again??? now 5 feels like I have just started and need to expand it more, thought the weather is getting cooler and windier.
I could "hump it" for days in the Army - running so-so - force march (run 2 mile walk 2 mile for the whole day) was OK also - but strap me up and tell me to walk 75 miles - no issues what so ever.
I'm trying to get back in to that mode again at my ripe old age - and starting to succeed. Last check up I lost 6 pounds, and while I haven't been back since (July) I've managed to walk 210 miles / 396,450 steps / 25,376 Calories (phone app that links GPS to walking counter, input weight and stride and it uses shock/motion sensor to calculate info) and drop another 22 pounds.
w00t.
Golds Gym herre has just recently added a crossfit class (I despise Golds... and I don't know why) but I am REALLY REALLY REALLY interested in Crossfit - as some of my friends still in the service are all gaga over it and I have been trying dome of it out on my own - but having a place to do it for real would be awesome.

#880 Copied from a comment on Reddit. I couldn't let this one go without sharing.The outcome of this was completely unintentional and I can assure you that my dog has no long lasting effects because of it...
I had a girlfriend in college that was very adamant about me NOT tossing condoms into the toilet after sex. So to appease her I would toss them in the trash bin instead.
Well one day I'm walking my dog at night and she's (the dog, not the gf) hunched over trying to take a shit. Well I'm there checking my text messages and I notice that she's taking a while and is stressing a bit more than usual. I'm in a dimly lit area but I look down and notice that there's a white tip of something coming out of her butt. I'm thoroughly confused. I thought she might have a tapeworm. A bit more of it comes out and I decide to grab a leaf off the ground and pull on the worm to help her. She freaked out, ran in the opposite direction and the worm stretched out like a rubber band and snapped back at me. At this very moment a girl that lives in the building next to mine turns the corner.
What she sees is me holding a shit covered condom with shit speckles all over my white shirt and my dog cowering about 10 feet away. -

#894 This is too funny, but in case you hadn't heard. From Think Geek, there was a whole saga where the pork association sued them for selling "canned unicorn meat, the other other white meat". They said it infringed upon their trade mark on "Other white meat"
Here is the latest:
"Our Canned Unicorn Meat continues to be met with resistance at every turn. First it was those pure of heart unicorn sympathizers, then the National Pork Board accused us of trademark dilution, and now we're having trouble getting it across the German border?
We just got this email from Ingomar, who kindly wrote us this warning:
Folks,
I just learned that it is not very helpful to describe the "canned unicorn meat" as "canned unicorn meat" on the invoice when trying to import this.
Customs get really irritated as it's supposedly food and meat of a "rare" animal. For the sake of keeping things smooth please label it as "canned unicorn (plush toy)" or something less conspicuous.
My delicous unicorn is stuck in customs for almost a week now.
Best regards,
Ingomar

#897 That is funny. Someone invested a lot of time in that answer however 😀 -
#898 That's as good as this one -
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington
chemistry mid-term.
The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it
with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have
the pleasure of enjoying it as well:
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
(gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some
variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate
at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a
soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state
that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.
Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to
Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number
of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of
change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order
for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of
Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase
until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year
that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take
into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two
must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already
frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen
over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is
therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the
existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept
shouting "Oh my God."
THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A" -

Caught Spying on Student, FBI Demands GPS Tracker Back
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/10/fbi-tracking-deviceA California student got a visit from the FBI this week after he found a secret GPS tracking device on his car, and a friend posted photos of it online. The post prompted wide speculation about whether the device was real, whether the young Arab-American was being targeted in a terrorism investigation and what the authorities would do.
It took just 48 hours to find out: The device was real, the student was being secretly tracked and the FBI wanted its expensive device back, the student told Wired.com in an interview Wednesday.

Quite easy to explain - really - it's when Enterprise flew back in time to San Fransisco to save the wales.
They had to stay cloaked so the gays would not be scared straight at the sight of men from the future.

#931 Davy Crockett was not born in the United States, but rather in the Free Republic of Franklin. Yes, there was a small country in what would become Tenessee. Even more interesting is how it became the Free Republic of Franklin.

One notable fact is the State of Franklin was actually a part of the State of North Carolina at one point. The city of Nashville lies in what was Franklin. Nashville, North Carolina just doesn't sound right..... -

#933 Bought a book about that last year. Being a map dork. I forget the name but it was about all the former states, state proposals and other such things in the us, also a bit about how some states go their shapes. I think it was something like 'the lost states of america'. -

#935 Yea Sarge, I had never heard about this and I was a huge Davey Crockett fan growing up. Read all sorts of stuff about him. That book and TV show sound interesting. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Hell we already have few advanced guard in place - (along with it being my home state and all my family still there.)New Hampshire's constitution is one of only four state constitutions that expressly protect citizens' right to revolution (Section 1, Article 10).
http://www.nh.gov/constitution/constitution.html
[Art.] 10. [Right of Revolution.] Government being instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security, of the whole community, and not for the private interest or emolument of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, whenever the ends of government are perverted, and public liberty manifestly endangered, and all other means of redress are ineffectual, the people may, and of right ought to reform the old, or establish a new government. The doctrine of nonresistance against arbitrary power, and oppression, is absurd, slavish, and destructive of the good and happiness of mankind. -

#956 W.T.F. in Meredith, New Hampshire. Over?
Like many parents who home-school, Voydatch believes in the importance of teaching the basics of reading and writing. But she also believes in the importance of a religious education...... The judge said that "Amanda reflected her motherâs rigidity in matters of Faith, and that because of that rigidity she needed to be ordered into government run schools. â
ordered ordered ordered ordered ordered ordered
When did we start ordering every day citizens in to complying with some fucked up judges idea of education.
http://liveshots.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/01...to-home-school/
Just in case someone up there forgot that we have a Constitution:
Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression. Ratified 12/15/1791. Note
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Yes it's going to N.H. Supreme court - and yes they are suspected to up hold the anti-Constitutional ruling so they don't have to deal with the ramifications thus sending it to the U.S. Supreme court.
W.T.F.? -
#957 Duck while on the surface I agree, I think a parent should be allowed to homeschool if that is their choosing. My understanding of this is that the girls two parents disagree. It's almost a custody battle. The mother wants to home school and the father is fearful that the homeschooling is a detriment to his child.
The courts agreed with the father that the girl seemed to be schooled primarily in faith based things and wasn't being prepared for adulthood, thus they upheld the girl's fathers wishes.
Had this been that the parents agreed on homeschooling and the courts said "no" I would agree with you 100%, since the father who is a 50% share (for lack of a better word) of the child is against it, I think the courts may not be wrong.
Of course all of this comes with a caveat that I know nothing more about this situation than the article that you posted. I am 100% there is much more nuance than what is reflected in any news article. -
#958 Not that I'm a lawyer, but I don't see what this really has to do with the constitution. Reading the article it is more a custodial issue of "how we raise our child when we can't stand each other". The court is only involved because the parents can't agree on how that should be. Why the fathers' beliefs trump the mothers' in this case is unclear. -
#959 Just have the problem with
The judge said that "Amanda reflected her motherâs rigidity in matters of Faith, and that because of that rigidity she needed to be ordered into government run schools. â
Yes that both parents are probably douche bags - but for a judge to find her faith too rigid thus ORDERING her away from her faith to government run schools is pathetic.
And next said judge does not like the idea people using petrol in boats so he mandates that you can no longer enjoy Lake Winnipesaukee but from 50 feet back from the shore line?
(Piss poor analogy) but you get the idea - where does it stop when you start on the slippery slope of local magistrate ORDERING you to do ANYTHING that is NOT expressly illegal to do?
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
You have an evil man in Meredith. -
#960 -
#961 I wouldn't call the person evil. The judges job is to make a decision and that would translate to either home schooling or not. He/she saw something that pushed the ruling towards going with the public schools, and I doubt it had anything to do with the first amendment. That article also doesn't have a direct quote from the judge or the ruling anywhere in it. What is there is a quote of the losing attorney about what the judge said and is spun the way he wants the ruling to be seen. It will be interesting to see what the supreme court says for sure but I still see this as a custody battle that happens to be about parental religious differences.
As a sidebar, I thought it was an interesting twist that the public schools were labeled as "government run" when schools and school districts in NH are entities in their right separate from the "government" of the communities that they are in, with separate funding streams for the most part. They certainly have state and federal mandates about coursework and other things, but they are far from "government run". I don't know that I've ever heard of public schools being referred to in that way before. -

#970 I've been looking around for a custom fixed blade knife recently - and Randal Knives are among the best you could think about purchasing.
From their web site:
*****Important--Please Read Before Ordering******
Current order deliveries are being scheduled for delivery in 58 MONTHS, year 2015. Randall order limit is a single knife every three months per household. Effective November 1, 2007, extra features are limited to five chargeable features per knife. We strongly recommend obtaining the catalog to view all features before placing an order. Model and feature change orders are limited and there is a charge for change orders. A deposit of US$50.00 per knife is required to place an order. Deposits are not transferable and non-refundable. Credit card user name must match the individual's name placing the order. -

Do they only have one man working in a hut on a stranded island working on these?! I am all for "anything worth having is worth waiting for" but sheesh! -
#972 My concern would be - will he live that long to make them?
Randal Knives were popular in the Vietnam era - so he has to be in his 70's at least...... -
#973 Holy poop... does the knife have a wifi connection?? How much ram?? -
#974 But if I place an order today, my CC expires in 2012. How am I going to pay for it in 3 more years?
Is there an ebay listing for his knives? Might be worth buying a noncustom custom. -
#975 There are just some things I'd never do - trying to find a knock off or questionable Randal is not one of those thing.
Like a few of my holsters, I may have waited 23 months for my Milt Sparks, but I KNOW Milt made it (right here in Idaho is a plus) not a knock off and my Robert Mika - I know it's real as he signed it with date of manufacture and a note to me with my name inside the holster.
Some things you just don't uck with.
And I'm positive if you order a knife and you can not pay for it - the next person in line that has that model will be more than happy to take your early. -

http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/141/index/6459941/1Be careful what you say. Thatâs the lesson BioWare forum user Arno has learned in the last 24 hours, after an ill-advised comment on the BioWare forums has led to his EA account being locked, such that he cannot play his purchased copy of Dragon Age 2 for 72 hours.
It reveals a clause in the terms of service that accompany buying an EA game that will surprise the vast majority who do not read the microprint. Misbehave in the forum (as Arno fully admits he did), and you can have your right to play a legitimately purchased game taken away from you. Forever, if they want to.
Arno made a mistake. He posted a comment in which he said,

#996 There is a chain of second hand good stores out here in the west called Deseret Industries - run by the Mormons (think Salvation Army / Christians) Last weekend I picked up a pair of "survival stoves" from the "junk room" out back of one of the stores.
While I had a rudimentary understanding of the Optimus line form Sweden, I did not know how popular the were.
The single burner 8R I purchased for $ 0.75 cents and the dual burner 22B for $ 1.50.
I was wow'ed when I see them on eBay for $ 150.00 for the 8R and $ 380.00 for the 22B - just WOW is all I can say.
They both work fantastic and look out of the box new for stoves manufactured in the 40's/50's -
#997 Nice find! -
#998 Damn... I may still have/had 2 or 3 of the 1 burner. I think I may have tossed them. -
#999 Duck, is that a picture of your burner? That thing looks brand new. -
#1000 No but both of mine look exactly like the 22B almost in 100% shape, and both are the light blue color like the 22B not the Dark blue.
The 8R is missing the wrench for the burner wick adjustment but the 22B has one and a leatherman works just as well.
The are also multi-fuel according to the manual - led gas, unleaded, white gas, paraffin, diesel, mogas, jet fuel. -

#1005 ...for the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. (April 19 until May 16, 1943) The poster above is a death penalty for all Jews caught outside the Warsaw Ghetto and for any Poles caught helping the Jews. As many as 13,000 Jews died in the uprising, but most of the remaining 50,000 Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto went to the gas chambers of Treblinka.
We mourn the deaths, but celebrate the undeniable fact that for one magnificent month a poorly organized, largely unarmed band of freedom fighters defied the massive Nazi war machine and, above all, remember.The Ghetto fighters (numbering some 400 to 1,000 by April 19) were armed primarily with pistols and revolvers. Just a few rifles and automatic firearms smuggled into the Ghetto were available. The insurgents had little ammunition, and relied heavily on improvised explosive devices and incendiary bottles; more weapons were supplied throughout the uprising or captured from the Germans. Some weapons were hand-made by resistance: sometimes such weapons worked, other times they jammed repeatedly. In his daily reports, Stroop wrote his forces were able to recover the "booty" consisting of:
April 20, 1943:...In today's action we caught, apart from the Jews reported above, considerable stores of incendiary bottles, hand grenades, ammunition, military tunics, and equipment.
April 22, 1943:...captured 80 incendiary bottles and other booty.
April 23, 1943:...We captured apart from valuables and money - some gas masks.
April 24, 1943:..and an amount of paper money, especially dollars was captured; this money has not yet been counted.
April 25, 1943:..and in one bunker 3 pistols and explosive charges were captured. Further today, significant supplies of paper money, currency, gold coins and items of jewelry were secured.
April 26, 1943:...Once again, weapons, Molotov cocktails, explosive devices and large amounts of money were captured.
April 27, 1943:...In this operation we captured 3 rifles, 12 pistols, partly of heavier caliber, 100 Polish "pineapple" hand grenades, 27 German steel helmets, quite a number of German uniforms, tunics and coats which were even furnished with ribbon of the East medal, some reserve magazines for machine guns, 300 rounds of ammunition, etc.
April 28, 1943:..capturing more arms, ammunition, and military equipment
April 29, 1943:..Captured are 2 rifles, 10 pistols, 10 kilograms of explosives, and ammunition of various types
April 30, 1943:..Today, we again captured arms and particularly parts of German uniforms from them.
May 2, 1943:...arms and ammunition captured.
May 3, 1943:...We captured among other things, one German rifle, model 98, two 08 pistols and other calibers, also home-made hand grenades.
May 4, 1943:.. We captured 1 carbine, 3 pistols, and some ammunition.
May 5, 1943:..Today, we again captured arms and ammunition, including one pistol.
May 6, 1943:..One Jew who had escaped from Lublin was caught just outside of the Ghetto wall. He was armed as follows: 1 08 pistol, ample reserve ammunition, 2 Polish "pineapple" hand grenades.
May 7, 1943:..We captured 4 pistols of various calibers and some stores of ammunition.
May 8, 1943:..We captured about 15 to 20 pistols of various calibers, considerable stores of ammunition for pistols and rifles, moreover a number of hand grenades, made in the former armament factories.
May 9, 1943:..Again we captured some pistols and hand grenades.
May 10, 1943:..Today, we again captured small arms and some ammunition.
May 11, 1943:..Considerable amounts of food were captured or secured, in order to make it more and more difficult for them to get necessary food...We captured several pistols, hand grenades, and ammunition.
May 13, 1943:..Booty: 6 pistols, 2 hand grenades, and some explosive charges.
May 14, 1943:..some pistols, among them one of 12-mm caliber, were captured. In one dugout inhabited by 100 persons, we were able to capture 2 rifles, 16 Pistols, some hand grenades and incendiary appliances. Of the bandits who resisted, some again wore German military uniform, German steel helmets and "knobelbecher." Apart from the carbines. we captured 60 rounds of German rifle ammunition...Booty: rifles, pistols and ammunition. Further, a number of incendiary bottles (Molotov cocktails).
May 15, 1943:.. We captured 4 pistols of larger calibers, 1 infernal machine with fuse, 10 kilograms of explosives, and a considerable amount of ammunition.
May 24, 1943:
Seven Polish rifles, one Russian and one German rifle, 59 pistols of various calibers, several hundred incendiary bottles, home-made explosives, infernal machines with fuses, a large amount of explosives and ammunition for weapons of all calibers, including some machine gun ammunition. Regarding the booty of arms, it must be taken into consideration that the arms themselves could in most cases not be captured, as the bandits and Jews would, before being arrested, throw them into hiding places or holes which could not be ascertained or discovered. The smoking out of the dug-out by our men, also often made the search for arms impossible. As the dug-outs had to be blown up at once, a search later on was out of the question.
Poster published by ŻOB
Furthermore, we captured:
1,240 used uniform tunics (partly equipped with medal ribbons, Iron Cross, and East Medal).
600 pairs of used trousers.
Pieces of equipment, and German steel helmets.
103 horses, 4 of them in the former Ghetto (hearse).
We counted up to 23 May 1943:
4.4 million Zloty. We captured moreover about 5 to 6 million Zloty, not yet counted, a considerable amount of foreign currency, including -
$14,300 in paper.
$ 9,200 in gold.
Large amounts of valuables (rings, chains, watches etc.) -
#1006 One of my favorite books as a teenager was Mila 18 by Leon Uris.The name "Mila 18" is taken from the headquarters bunker of Jewish resistance fighters underneath the building at ulica Miła 18 (18 Mila Street, in English, 18 Pleasant Street).

#1008 MT. VERNON, TEXAS BEER JOINT SUES LOCAL CHURCH over LIGHTNING STRIKE!
Drummond's Bar began construction on an expansion of their building to increase their business.
In response, the local Baptist Church started a campaign to block the bar from expanding with petitions and prayers. Work progressed right up until the week before the grand reopening when lightning struck the bar and it burned to the ground!
After the bar burned to the ground by the lightning strike, the church folks were rather smug in their outlook, bragging about "the power of prayer," until the bar owner sued the church on the grounds that the church ... "was ultimately responsible for the demise of his building, either through direct or indirect actions or means."
In its reply to the court, the church vehemently denied all responsibility or any connection to the building's demise.
The judge read through the plaintiff's complaint and the defendant's reply, and at the opening hearing he commented, "I don't know how I'm going to decide this, but it appears from the paperwork that we have a bar owner who believes in the power of prayer, and an entire church congregation that now does not." -

Mike Rowe's Testimony Before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation
May 11, 2011
http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/dirtyjob...l#mkcpgn=fbdsc7In high schools, the vocational arts have all but vanished. We've elevated the importance of "higher education" to such a lofty perch that all other forms of knowledge are now labeled "alternative." Millions of parents and kids see apprenticeships and on-the-job-training opportunities as "vocational consolation prizes," best suited for those not cut out for a four-year degree. And still, we talk about millions of "shovel ready" jobs for a society that doesn't encourage people to pick up a shovel.

Past lecturers include the philosopher Bertrand Russell, "father of the atomic bomb" Robert J Oppenheimer and pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim.

#1044 A super good article on (mostly) pistol caliber *If you're in to this sort of stuff
"An Alternate Look at Handgun Stopping Power"
http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/node/7866 -
#1045 ummm from that article "Shotgun (All, but 90% of results were 12 gauge)"
So do I read this only 10% were 12Ga? I think they meant 90% 12Ga.
Interesting the shotgun is the most reliable for 1 shot takedown, but I wonder is that Birdshot, buckshot, slugs or all??
It all goes to confirm the old saying a .22 is just as deadly as anything else if you know how to shoot.
I would also be interested to see the following statistics:
How many people pulled a gun on an intruder and didn't use it / had it used on them.
Number of first shot misses/ second shot.
My experience on the range teaches me that most people don't know how to shoot, they would be lucky to hit the broadside of a barn, it frightens me how many of these people hunt/ have a weapon for 'self defense'. -
#1046 Yup Adrenalin dump, shakes, tunnel vision - all account for miss shots.
Typically people don't report the "brandish and he ran away" and when they do I don't think it would fall inside his criteria - although it would be very interesting to know.
Walt Rauch says it best - No one wants to leak.
"Shotgun (All gauges included, but 90% of results were 12 gauge)"
But your right, and I too think the same as he said in the end.
No matter which gun you choose, pick one that is reliable and train with it until you can get fast accurate hits. Nothing beyond that really matters! -
#1047 You all will get a chuckle out of this email.
We're the second largest electrical distributor in the world - our North America email server took a MASSIVE dump - the following is the after action from our I.T. group.
Enjoy.Please note on July 25, 2011 all Operating Companies on the "WXYZ" email platform experienced very slow response times in receiving external email hence considered a service interruption from an I.T. perspective.
What happened?
An "ABCD" associate created a rule to auto forward all his company e-mail messages to his personal Gmail account. The account became full or inactive so as soon as the Gmail mailbox was unavailable a forwarded message was returned to his company email and the rule immediately forwarded the message back to Gmail which caused a massive loop to occur. This resulted in the Email submission queue filling up with several hundred thousand outbound messages and the inbound queue became clogged with nearly a million inbound messages. The internal queues between companies are separate so the issue did not manifest when sending local e-mail. Any e-mail sent to an external e-mail address or e-mail coming into our organization was affected.
You JUST CAN'T make this shit up - -
#1048 Come on Duck, you should know that Gmail is monitored for keyword to direct ads specific to you. You shouldn't forward work email to such an account. Duh.
Mailservers I have dealt with would detect such a loop and shut it down.
What fun huh? -
#1049 -
#1050 Just heard a good description of this whole debt thing going on.
"Only in America can we raise the debt limit and agree to only spend 7 Trillion more and not the previously agreed upon 10 Trillion and still call it cutting the budget."
You just can't make this shit up. -
#1051 I am no economist, but I wonder...
This debate and even the thought that America could default on it's debt has cause the S&P and other credit ratings to drop for the US. This does not just affect the credit of the government, but also all of us (at least this is what I understand.)
Regardless of what you think about the deal, it seems the 'cuts' are 1.5 to 2.5 trillion over 10 years. This is 100-150 Billion per year.
Since our credit is now worse wouldn't the US be borrowing at a higher interest rate? Wouldn't this close the gap (at least partially) between the status quo and the new budget with the 'cuts'. Then factor in that all people who are borrowing from the US will now be doing so at a higher rate. This doesn't factor in things like lack of confidence in our economy by other countries, particularly China, this will put trade at a disadvantage to us.
All said and done, not only was this just a political circus, but I would contend we ended up worse off than before. We didn't fix any of the real problems, but we found a way to create a lot of 'controversy' and put off real debate until the middle of the election cycle. We didn't close corporate tax loopholes and increase, even a little, the amount large corps pay in taxes. We didn't cut back on social programs in an effort to make them more effecient with the money we give them.
Grrrrr it's time to get rid of all of them in Washington and get in some real people who understand you only spend what you can pay for. You sometimes need to compromise with those who you disagree with. Sometimes you need to do something you don't want to for the greater good. That will be honest with the public and say, 'OK, we have lived above our means for a long time. It's time to pay the piper'.
There is NO WAY to fix this without a little pain. -

Dead Island studio under fire after 'disturbing' blunder
The creators of Dead Island have promised to reprimand the ârogueâ developer who spliced the phrase âfeminist whoreâ within the gameâs code.
It was discovered that a female character in action horror game, called Purna, had one of her individual skills entitled â*FeministWhorePurnaâ within the gameâs code.
Due to a mistake in publishing, the internal script name was not meant to be seen by the public.
.....The gameâs profanity was discovered after Techland mistakenly released a dev-build of Dead Island on Steam

#1096 On the way home from a meeting tonight I was listening to a NPR story about a trial starting of a Guantanamo Bay detainee. It made me wonder how we ever got a base on Cuba. A quick Google search netted an answer.The United States seized Guantanamo Bay and established a naval base there in 1898 during the Spanish-American War. Five years later, the U.S. and Cuba signed a lease giving Guantanamo Bay to the U.S. as a "coaling and Naval station." The lease was required to implement the congressional Platt Amendment, which stipulated, among other things, that a naval base "at certain specified points to be agreed upon by the President of the United States" was required "to enable the United States to maintain the independence of Cuba."
In 1934, Cuba and the U.S. signed a treaty that gave the U.S. a perpetual lease to the area. The U.S. can't open a casino resort there, however: Private enterprise is banned under the terms of the treaty. The lease can be broken only by mutual agreement, so as a practical matter, Guantanamo Bay is U.S. property. It was there before Castro and will be there after him.

#1116 Oh its great, because they had to adjust on the fly as he did things. But they also tailored the contests to screw with him.
They found out he had a major gag reflex with chocolate. So one of the contests was you had to lick chocolate off a hot naked girl and find letters hidden on her body to spell a word. He loved the model part but was trying not to puke from the chocolate.
Or they rigged a contest so he could win the fancy 'special' room in the house (the one rigged with cameras everywhere so they could watch him easier. He quit the contest early, thus not winning the room. -

#1181 we had the report back here a few weeks back talking about a shooting:

#1183 Where the hell do these people come form?
In World of Tanks today the map timer was running low (15 min maximum time limit per map) - and was running down to a draw - I was in the T32 and had 3 kills (most on our team) we had 2 Panzer VIII Maus and 2 E-100's plus me left on our team they had an equal mix - one of our E-100 drivers started pissing about a draw = loss! We can't have a drw SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!!!
I said no a draw=draw and he started pissing about how his numbers would show as a loss and he needs to keep his numbers up .....
I told the story to everyone (both sides could read my text, not just team chat) about how he was worried about his E-penis, and the rat started shooting me, until their arty trashed him..... I wicked LOL @ him, told him his survival ratio just dropped AND the there was no chance of a cap as we were in to the 2 min range...... (Typical 2:15 to cap a flag) talk about your RAGE typing - for the next 2 min directed at me.... everyone was laughing at him from both sides after his little tirade.
Moron.

174 votes for each person, Mayor asked if they wanted a paper re-election, one of the guys said - how about a coin toss? Other guy said OK, mayor found a 1974 Silver dollar (174/1974)
First toss was heads guy one or tails guy two gets to make the call on the next flip.
Heads - so guy one calls the next toss heads - Mayor makes toss number two - heads, guy one wins the office slot, guy two shakes his hand - everyone has a laugh and life goes on in our small town.
Try that in Boston or Dallas or L.A. -

This one from World of Tanks - Yankee was a super ass hat (more then me if you can believe that....)
Dear leader of -G-,
as you have always been a forum mod since I began coming to these forums (Been a long time now huh?) I feel it is only fitting to welcome you to your new found status as "Scrub".
Being just a regular joe like the rest of us now, you are no longer immune to being trolled, crapped on or being attacked for no reason whatsoever. Without your mighty RO hammer to shield you from the wrath of the unwashed masses what will you do?
Allow me to be the first to say to you..
You suck.. for no real reason.
You are TERRIBLE at Tanks.. even if your stats say you aren't.
Your clan sucks and every African clan is better.. even if they aren't
My clan is better than yours!.. even if it isn't.
oh.. and I will hunt you down! find where you live and hurt you! RAGE RAGE!! (joke only mods..)
RO me now bro.. come at me with that ban hammer!.. oh wait.. you don't HAVE one fo those anymore? MUWAHAHAHAHHAA!
welcome to the forums as a normal everyday joe.. I am sure you will see soon enough it wasn't worth it.

#1195 OBIT from the Denver Post:
"A Celebration of the life of Michael "Flathead" Blanchard will be held on April 14, 3 p.m. 8160 Rosemary St, Commerce City. Weary of reading obituaries noting someone's courageous battle with death, Mike wanted it known that he died as a result of being stubborn, refusing to follow doctors' orders and raising hell for more than six decades. He enjoyed booze, guns, cars and younger women until the day he died.
"Mike was born July 1944 in Colorado to Clyde and Ethel Blanchard. A community activist, he is noted for saving the Dr. Justina Ford house from demolition and defending those who could not defend themselves. He was a Republican delegate, life member of the NRA, founder and President of the Dead Cats MC. He loved music.
"Mike was preceded in death by Clyde and Ethel Blanchard, survived by his beloved sons Mike and Chopper, former wife Jane Transue, brother Stephen Blanchard (Susan), Uncle Don and Aunt Cynthia Blanchard (his favorite); Uncle Dill and Aunt Dot, cousins and nephews, Baba Yaga can kiss his butt.
So many of his childhood friends that weren't killed in Vietnam went on to become criminals, prostitutes and/or Democrats. He asks that you stop by and re-tell the stories he can no longer tell.
As the Celebration will contain Adult material we respectfully ask that no children under 18 attend."
* * * Sons Mike and Chopper were his cats. -
#1196 So - I was at the local Walmart yesterday - picking up deli meat and such for supper (too dam hot to run the stove when in the shade temp was 104)
What did I spy?

Sad you feel that way about BF3...it has gotten better and better even though the patches have been few and far between, Armored Kill is getting very good reviews.
As for tableTop, I have been watching that channel for a while. It is awesome and around comic/game shops he has single handly boosted sales of games for local stores with that show. Every time he does a new game my local game shop stocks up and sells out of that specific game. They have said, everything Wil Wheaton touches on that show turns to gold.
I was sad to see Eureka close up shop, i really enjoyed that show and Colin as the Sheriff was awesome.
My girlfriend (I wish, if you haven't seen the Date My Avatar video, you need to) Felicia Day started the Geek & Sundry Channel and her show "The Flog" isn't half bad.

#1221 Wind is starting to pick up here a bit more, but each successive forecast seems to expect less and less rain. I expect that wind will be a problem, but it doesn't look like we'll get much flooding locally except from the storm surge on the coast. Looks like further inland will get it much worse in terms of rain and wind. -
#1222 full moon tide this weekend also....not a good combination, if your anywhere near the coast, stand on the top step!

#1224 Big wind here last night and a bit of rain too. We lost power for about 3 hours in the late afternoon/evening but was steady through the night. Not nearly the storm it was hyped up to be in this area at least. If I were writing this from New York or New Jersey I might be feeling a bit less optimistic at this point. -
#1225 Good to hear Sargiepoo
Always have wonder how much more sensational newz and weather outlets make it sound to keep the sensationalize UP to keep you riveted to them for the latest train wreck disaster.
I know get the news out.... always error on the side of worse then better to make sure the lemmings scatter..... but the storm of the millennium it was not (thankfully)

#1226 Went outside, never came in, sarge told me I had to keep his driveway dry!!!
All was fine here, 3-4 hours no power. Generator was running good. Sounds like NYC and CT got it pretty darn bad (storm of the millenium style), we'll see as real news rolls in from there (lots o fake news and pics coming out of there). -

#1229 Got a cool email today for the head shed over in Frog ville (Paris)
We have a good presence in NY/NJ/PA under a different co name but still part of us
They are putting up 100K to employees in the effected area of the storm who are out of power / housing / food so they can get clothes for them and the kids - with no request to pay the company back once they are on their feet again.
They are moving a section of 2 of the warehouses we own in the area and creating emergency shelter for employees w/o power or even shelter - setting up showers and laundry for them and hot food if they want to move out of the cold and live in a warehouse for a while.
They are also matching employee contributions 2:1 dollar wise on top of the 100K they put up them selves - so the rest of us NOT effected can help out our fellow employees - with the promise NOTHING will flow outside the company until all is over and then any surplus will got to the American Red Cross.
Still. Good of the Frogs to look out for their own first and then go above and beyond to provide shelter, clothes, food, laundry inside our own buildings - for our own people.

#1233 Have seen this story yet?
(Google it - the words that were said are already becoming more flowery from main stream media as the days go by - but the song remains the same.
Cop does something nice with for someone)
On Nov. 14, NYPD officer Lawrence DePrimo, who was on counterterrorism duty in Times Square, saw the older homeless man without shoes sitting on 42nd Street. DePrimo, 25, left and then returned with a pair of $100 boots he bought at a nearby Skechers store.
"It was freezing out, and you could see the blisters on the man's feet," DePrimo, a three-year veteran of the department who lives with his parents on Long Island, told the New York Times. "I had two pairs of socks, and I was still cold."
The random act of kindness was captured by Jennifer Foster, a tourist from Florence, Ariz., who was visiting the city. Foster, communications director for the Pinal County Sheriff's Office in Arizona, emailed the photo to the NYPD with a note commending DePrimo.
"The officer said, 'I have these size 12 boots for you, they are all-weather. Let's put them on and take care of you,'" Foster wrote. "The officer squatted down on the ground and proceeded to put socks and the new boots on this man.
"I have been in law enforcement for 17 years," she continued. "I was never so impressed in my life. ... It is important, I think, for all of us to remember the real reason we are in this line of work. The reminder this officer gave to our profession in his presentation of human kindness has not been lost." -

(from a cop)
Push and hold door close button - keep it pressed even after door is closed.
Push and hold floor button that you want to go to - keep it pressed and door closed until car starts moving.
Release both once motion starts, this puts car control in to direct mode and will bypass floor calls from people waiting on floors you may be passing.

And were doomed.
How many unique English tweets are possible? How long would it take for the population of the world to read them all out loud?
âEric H., Hopatcong, NJ
High up in the North in the land called Svithjod, there stands a rock. It is a hundred miles high and a hundred miles wide. Once every thousand years a little bird comes to this rock to sharpen its beak. When the rock has thus been worn away, then a single day of eternity will have gone by.
âHendrik Willem Van Loon
bird sharpening its beak on the mountaintop. Suppose that the bird scrapes off a tiny bit of rock from the mountain when it visits every thousand years, and it carrying away those few dozen dust particles when it leaves. (A normal bird would probably deposit more beak material on the mountaintop than it would wear away, but virtually nothing else about this scenario is normal either, so we'll just go with it.)
Let's say you read tweets aloud for 16 hours a day, every day. And behind you, every thousand years, the bird arrives and scrapes off a few invisible specks of dust from the top of the hundred-mile mountain with its beak.
When the mountain is worn flat to the ground, that's the first day of eternity.
The mountain reappears and the cycle starts again for another eternal day. 365 eternal daysâeach one 1032 years longâmakes an eternal year.
100 eternal years, in which the bird grinds away 36,500 mountains, make an eternal century.
But a century isn't enough. Nor a millennium.
Reading all the tweets takes you ten thousand eternal years.
That's enough time to watch all of human history unfold, from the invention of writing to the present, with each day lasting as long as it takes for the bird to wear down a mountain.

Presenter Henry Louis Gates Jr, the distinguished Harvard professor of African-American history, shows Sedgwick a picture of her 9th cousin once removed. "And his name is Kevin Bacon," he says, as her face crumples in horror.
Sedgwick, who expressed a fear at the outset that the investigation would show that the couple, married for 25 years, were indeed related, exclaims: "See. I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!,"
🤣 🤣 🤣 -
#1252 DOH -
#1253 9th cousin, once removed? I had to look it up and it means that one of them (say Kevin) has the same great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents as one of the Kyra's parents.
Given where Kyra Sedgwick's family is from and the timeframes involved, I bet my wife has a connection there somewhere too as her family goes back to the 1630's in Massachusetts. -

The Pedal PubThis is the vehicle that accommodates up to 17 people who pedal, serve, drive, and imbibe as it travels. Invented in the Netherlands as a way to promote a local tavern, its high-grade steel chassis provides a reliable, safe, and open deck ideal for socializing. With five pedal seats per side, 10 pedalers propel the vehicle up to 5 mph on flat surfaces with grades up to 6%. A bench in the rear and two additional seats provide seating for five passengers. The final spots are taken up by a driver who sits in front at the wheel and a bartender who serves revelers while standing on a low interior deck that runs the length of the vehicle. An empty wine barrel accommodates a keg of your preferred brew; it connects to a tap and overflow tray at the bar (linkage required), which has cup holders to secure beverages. The included sound system places four speakers in the bar's overhead storage racks beneath its wooden roof, allowing you to play music from an integrated AM/FM radio that supports MP3 connectivity (required). Supports pedalers up to 300 lbs. each. Special conditions and guarantee limitations apply. Please call 1-800-227-3528 for details. 20' L x 8' W x 10' H. (2,300 lbs.)

Dalton Gardens, Idaho (CBS SEATTLE) â An Idaho ammunition manufacturer has developed a new line of pork-laced bullets they hope will fight against Islamic terrorists â and keep them from going to heaven.
South Fork Industries of Dalton Gardens, Idaho, took traditional bullets and coated them in pork-infused paint to make them âharam,â or unclean, under Islamic law. The companyâs website labels the âJihawg Ammoâ bullets as âPeace Through Porkâ and a âpeaceful and natural deterrent to radical Islam.â

#1276 Thought this was an interesting info graphic.
What each state is MOST famous for - brand wise. -
#1277 "bullets as a peaceful deterrent" That's a first. I can see a whole new market for this kind of thing. Use beef infused paint to make the Hindus unclean, have them hand painted by a homosexual to keep the Christians in line (fear of catching "the gay") or dipped in Einstein's remains to tap into their fear of science. Racists could be detered by bullets coated in the blood of their least favorite race, the entire financial industry could be held in check by bullets dipped in communist propaganda. For politicians the bullets dipped in holy water would be fine, just like vampires. -

#1292 Holy Christ.... I am a fairly good marksman, and I cannot imagine with a rifle. I mean with #7 shot and a shotty.... but wow, Sarge? wanna go hit some golf balls? -
#1293 Have a good golfer that can reasonably place a shot in the same location time after time.
Have a long depth of field scope that you can see the golf ball enter your field of vision, know where your rifle will soot at a point in space out in front of you.
Watch the golf ball's trajectory - and if it falls IN TO your point of aim. Shoot.
You'll NEVER hit it by tracking the ball - it has to bisect your point of aim.
Then there's this .50 cal deflection -
#1294 Here's a cool story from one of the guys over at the motorcycle forum I hang out at and also are part of their WoT clan.
Ed Lives in the wash out area in Colorado - so far his luck has held is is literally the last of three houses above the flood.
___________________________________
I spent the day coordinating the rescue of a dog named Webster.
Cheryl told me this morning that one of her friends on facebook was in a panic because his dog was trapped.
His dog is in Pinewood Springs; at home in his crate trapped with nobody else was there (for 2 days now).
Pinewood Springs is a disaster area - there is no way in or out. The road has been washed out in a dozen places. The have no communication and no power. Luckily there is a single person in Pinewood with a Ham Radio.
His owner was trapped in Estes with no way to get to Pinewood and the fire department wouldn't even listen to the owner because they were so overloaded with the disaster so he posted to facebook in desperation. I happen to know the radio operator for the Longmont Fire Department and a Ham radio operator (who is here on ADV).
Through our network of friends we were able to get a message to the Ham in Pinewood and rescue Webster from his crate.
There are now people taking care of him
This is Webster:
I'm going to sleep better tonight knowing he isn't trapped.
__________________
p.s. the final part of "rescue Webster the dog" was complete today - we got Webster to my friend Todd (Toddler here on ADV) who is an avid dog lover and will treat Webster as a member of the family until Jeff can get back to Pinewood Springs.
This is a big relief because they are now saying it may be a full 2 weeks before they can reach Pinewood Springs due to the devastation up there!
Jeff has gotten lucky and a hotel in Estes Park is comp'ing him a room because they appreciate him being stranded.
Here is Webster and Joy (Todd's dog) playing this afternoon (Todd climbed to the top of the nearest mountain, got cell services and posted this to Facebook): -

#1298 yea, wow....
I know about a trapped dog. When the May 3rd Tornado hit, we were without power and left to get some dinner. We were not in the direct path, but it cut through just North of us.
When we tried to get back in, the National Guard wouldn't let us, even though our Driver License said we lived there. We had to sleep at a friends and leave our dog alone in a hot house. I tried everyway I could think of to try to cut around them. I even went to some four wheeling spots as we were in my Jeep, but they had everything blocked. I went nuts after one night. I can't imagine this. -

#1301 .....Yesterday until Sunday Jan 19 2014 - Steam has SaintsRow IV free to play
If not familiar with SR-IV it kicks the piss out of all "the stupid" other games try to take serious.
Basically they just make fun of everyone else in a WAAAYYYYY over the top game - something a seven year old would do if they could make a stupid video game.
Yah - right up my alley. -

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/15/world/as...health&_r=3The United States is nearly completely reliant on China for itâs supply of lifesaving antibiotics.
âThe crucial ingredients for nearly all antibiotics, steroids and many other lifesaving drugs are now made exclusively in China,â The New York Times reported in the 32nd paragraph of a Friday article entitled âMedicines made in India set off safety worries.â
Indeed, 2014 marks the tenth anniversary of Bristol-Myers Squibb â the last American plant that manufactured the key ingredients for penicillin and other drugs â shuttering itâs upstate New York factory.
