Reply to CNN Headline - Lindsay Lohan? in Movies & TV & Books JoeUser Forums

You're talking CNN Headline News? There is actually an "entertainment news" show on there that gets broadcast either once or twice a night. Also, their hourly rotating format seemed to not appeal to viewers, so they're changing it. Larry King's show from the previous night will be re-run mid-morning. Who cares? Viewers. These news shows/channels try their best to lead with the stories that bring in the most traffic. Headline News anchors

Godwin's Law Invoked, Career Ends in Misc JoeUser Forums

Professor Ward Churchill, who drew some parallels between 9/11 victims and Nazis, was fired Tuesday by the University of Colorado's Board of Regents. Unfortunately, they cited "deliberate and repeated research misconduct" instead of "Godwin's Law." Okay, beyond that one net-centric joke, I've got nothing. "Churchill, who had tenure, stepped down fro

NutriSystem Day 2 (24JUL07) in Diet JoeUser Forums

I weighed 224 this morning, but that was without PT. If I didn't have the Color Guard event, I would've been at the gym sweating out 2-3lb of water weight, so I'll still count it as progress (which isn't all that important, anyway, as it was just one day). I chose a few things that were very similar to yesterday, but I tried to change up my lunch/dinner en

Reply to More Goal Adjustments, 10JUL in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

If it's due on the 3rd, but it's not actually due until the 4th, why not just say it's due on the 4th? I found out: the one day grace period only applies if it's only one day late. If it's 14 days late, you pay for all 14 days ($1.40).

NutriSystem Day 1 (23JUL07) in Diet JoeUser Forums

Having a four week supply for free, I figured I ought to at least give it a shot. My weight went up over the six weeks I had my sons this summer and I'm looking for this to kick start my losses. Hopefully, coupled with a renewed interest in diet and exercise (maybe they won't interfere with my PT sessions too much this month) this will garner some real results.

For whatever reason, my government endorsed and enforced filter blocks it for the stated reason. *shrug* Maybe it's just that the Air Force is overly sensitive?

That's impressive. Thanks. I think what your husband is trained to do and does is more impressive, but I'm not going to dismiss the compliment. I'm embarassingly rusty on a lot of these skills, so this is part of a personal refresher.

Why? Its amazing, I can talk to people about riding, fishing, racing etc etc and ask questions to find out more, and get eagar civilised responses. Try the same thing with Religion and I am automatically some trouble stiring heathen who has the termerity to ask questions, as the OP has just been branded here.

Reply to Please dont kill me but... in Religion JoeUser Forums

Again, this isn't meant to upset anybody. I have to ask, if you don't mean to upset anyone, why are you posing these questions? Since you don't believe in any form of religion, it is difficult for me to read your article as anything but attempting to stir something up in the forum. If you approached random Christians in you local community with the same questions, I can only imagine their responses. "Hey, I'm not a Christian, I don't believe i

Reply to Harry Potter- How can you avoid spoilers? in Books JoeUser Forums

The mainstream news has been rife with "teasers" (not necessarily spoilers, per se). CNN Headline News has ongoing Harry Potter coverage all day today, which is insane; they've mentioned the release parties, the spoilers in the NY Times review, and the fact that some internet dealers shipped the book too early. Honestly, the hype is so extensive, I'm almost interested enough to pick it up, and I haven't read any of the other books. (I

Nope. Just don't feel like it. in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

I was being good today, went to the gym, breakfast was more of a light snack... But it's not a good day, so I'm overindulging and finding comfort in food (and probably bourbon). Ah, well. Tomorrow might be bad for food, too, since I'm pulling nearly 12 hours at a rifle range. I imagine I'll check in on Thursday (graduation day).<!-- Ju-Anch

Reply to Alltell Roadside Assistance STINKS! in Misc JoeUser Forums

A jump start is not a tow! But it's something that a tow service would provide. It sounds like you were a fair bit out into nowhere... it's possible that whatever towing service was on contract in that area would charge (gouge) that much for the location you were at. I'm not trying to dissuade you from saving the $3/month. I wish I would've, but now that I've paid for it for two years I'm afraid that as soon as I cancel it I'll need it. <img

Reply to Alltell Roadside Assistance STINKS! in Misc JoeUser Forums

Alltel roadside assistance covers towing up to $50, according to their website. Whether they covered the first $50 of the potential bill or not I couldn't say, but the service doesn't cover all contingencies. Sorry y'all got stuck out there, though.

Starting Over (Almost) in Diet JoeUser Forums

The weight that I had managed to take off earlier this year was almost entirely replaced over the past 7 weeks. 6 weeks of having my sons with me for the summer, plus one week in the field: I ate way too much during both of those periods of time, for various reasons. Honestly, I just didn't feel like policing myself with the kids here, preparing entirely separate me
