Roadkill? Since when will calling something roadkill disqualify it from the dinner table? I know a bunch of families (mine included) that aren't adverse to dining at the Roadkill Cafe from time to time.
Oh, sorry CM. Your documentation just disappeared from the network shares. Oh, then I'll just put them back LOCALLY from the backup (on CD, natch) that I did last night before I left. I've learned to nev
Happy birthday guys! Seems that Nov 21 is a popular date. My 2nd best friend (since my wife is my BESTEST friend ) has his birthday that same day. My college roommate has his on the same day. Almost as good: My wife's birthday is tomorrow (the 19th). Mine was this past Monday (14th). My best friend's growing up is today (the 18th). With my wedding anni
Zoomba: You also have control in new projects to shape it in the direction you like. That's the part that I'm liking the most. The other types are interesting, and you do end up learning alot (if you do it right), but like you said, they can be VERY annoying. <TABLE cellpadding=8 widt
*SSSSSNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF* eww... I guess it's time to put my shoes back on. I've been a computer programmer/developer for (officially ... 6 years now - unofficially ... it's going on 24) awhile. I've come in on projects that are in it's death throws (aka Maintenance mode) and I've been on projects that, while alr
Hehe. I've seen $1.98 (in Hampton Roads and Smithfield). Back closer to home, it's as low as $2.03. GottalovaWaWa.
The really funny part is, the other half of the building we're currently in is occupied by Northrop-Grummand.
Hehe. Doc, the technology park this is all going into ... is maybe a mile from the office I'm (kinda sorta) currently working out of. They just recently completed a new water tower for it.
Hehe. Gotta give 'em SOME credit. There tenacious.
COL, there is the difference between having a piece of paper that says that you finished 30 years pretending to be an officer (which matches the single-minded ravings that you practice here) and a piece of paper that says that you finished 30 years serving as an officer of the US Army w/ distinction. The MSM is an possible indicator that you might've had a clue at one point, COL. Or it could indicate that you knew how to appropriately kiss
*chuckle* That's always a good sign that "the times, they are a changin'!" When he starts looking for cologne ... that's when you should get worried.
Good answers! *clap clap clap* That's always a good one. I can handle those ... the ones I'm not looking forward to deal with my daughter ... With my luck, my wife will be out of town when that question comes up.
It all depends on what order they appear in. The ones on the interior are harder, 'cause I always locate them in relation to fixed states (TX, TN, MN, WI, etc)
92% correct, 14 miles avg error distance, 356 seconds. Might've done it faster, but my arthritis is messing w/ my hands and I'm 3/4 of the way asleep. Oh, well. Time to stumble to bed... after I send this link to my wife so that she and my kids can practice w/ it... It'll make a nifty little tool for the homeschool kids. Or even public school kids to practice.
believe they were decided on the basis of local issues and peculiarities of the candidates themselves Re: Virginia - I'll buy the peculiarities of the candidates ... they were both rather peculiar (and nondescript). The local issues? What local issues were raised in the VA gubernatorial race?
couldn't it simply be that Jerry Kilgore was scummy, creepy and the worst kind of politician out there. Gee, I would've said the same thing about Khaine (and did, actually). And, to be honest here, I did say the same thing about Kilgore. It was just another case of choosing between the lesser of t
Too bad that folks can't understand that simple truth. The proximity of VA to DC 'causes and inverse affiliation. Whomever controls DC doesn't control VA. It's that simple. No "Republicans are screwed" (even though they ARE screwing up).
He's been very, very effective, but people just don't like what he's effected much. Bush hasn't had his "Bay of Pigs" that i have seen. That statement, I can agree with. A president like Jimmy Carter (can kind o' remember) was inept and ineffective. Gerald Ford (before my time, going on impressions re
Sounds like you've got a plan. Not that I'd expect differently from you, Gideon. Good luck! And good studies.
An article I just read, said that all but a small handfull (less than 5) of the 90 precincts had replaced the punch card machines. So, I get to wait and see if Petersburg is one of the holdouts (probably is). Oh, well. Voting is a good excuse to leave work early today. Still get to drive from Hampton to Petersburg to vote, so gotta make sure I leave early enough to get there. *sigh* This might be the first day in almos
I love the fact that the folks from Penny-Arcade are able to use their fame (and it's considerable, even outside the gaming/online-comic worlds) for a worthy cause. My hat's off to them. If I can squeeze anything out of my budget later this month, I'm going to be making a donation. However, with 3 birthdays, my wedding anniversary, a possible move ... $20 may be as much as I can swing. It's better than nothing, though. I wou
Apparently their point is that as one of the highest profile black politicians, he has an obligation to be bothered by stuff like the Governor attending a fund raiser at an all white club. Just because he has the same skin tone as others, he's supposed to spout (and agree with) the racist policies that
but most black people would find it pretty offensive that he defended the Governor. I've got a silly question. How do you get "he defended the Governor" out of "... and Steele said it didn't bother him"? There's a big difference between defending someone, and someone's actions not bothering you. <
See, COL, want it both ways. Yes, according to the numbers, that money MIGHT be saved if Bush didn't go anywhere outside the country. However, if he did stay in the US (and let everyone bash him for not performing part of his duties ... oh, yeah, those that deal in International relations), the money "saved" from that would be used to increase his traval intranationally or used for some other pork barral project. However, regardless of the
Since I'm a major SW fan, and basically buy anything labeled SW (see, I am a sucker^H^H^H^H^H^Hfan). I'll be playing it by the weekend.
