Go eat.


Too early - only 11:10 on the CST tip. Gots to wait til at least 12:30 or so.

[KronoRed]

Oh my! Walk away from the pie, Creek! You just need a hug and a real day off!



Hugs rock :D

Have a snack..or move to the eastern time zone ;)

[KronoRed]

(Butterfinger)

Yes! They are spelled differently ;), and a Butterfinger bar couldn't hold a Clark bar's jock strap ...... or something like that. :)

I even like Clark bars that are kind of stale. Weird, huh?

Yes..very weird ;)

[KronoRed]

Best part of a Reeses is after you've gently nibbled all the chocolate off and you pop the blob of peanut butter in your mouth. In my opinion, the chocolate only serves to protect the yummy peanut butter.

I can't eat them like that, I just throw the whole thing in and chew a lot :D

[TeamCasey]

I had a Thanksgiving-like meal from the cafeteria. It was a lot of food, so I got rid of half of it.

[KronoRed]

I played golf here yesterday.

Where did it go? :D

[KronoRed]

Rosie, it sounds like you are finally on the path to righteousness with the BMV. Bureaucracy at its finest.

I've got some cones if you want to practice your maneuverability test.

I've always wondered who the people are that want a job at the BMV? It's like working at the lost luggage counter at the airport. You know your clientele doesn't want to be there, won't be in the greatest mood, and it's all just a pain in the neck.

Do people dream as a little kid "The highest calling for my life is to work at the BMV and deal with PO'ed people every day"?

Some people like to see others in pain, like telemarketers like to hear people be pissed off ;)

[KronoRed]

SB, you need to lose 10 lbs. like I need another broken ankle.

Knock on wood chip!!! :eek:

[KronoRed]

What're you, Howard Hughes?

That guy was a weirdo

[KronoRed]

I know of a good cardiovascular workout, but if I posted it Krono would go :eek: .


:devil:

Knock it off people, I just try and keep the thread semi clean and I get attacked for it

:dflynn:

;)

[KronoRed]

My question is why weren't you fishing there!?!

Those fish will bite your head off, they eat golf balls for breakfast ;)

[KronoRed]

Oh yeah, I almost forgot...

Go Red Sox, go Red Sox, go, go, go Red Sox....

:gac: :gac: :gac:

Rosie if it helps: The reason your might feel a little frustrated with the BMV is, we've found that each employee is allowed to just make up the rules as they go along. ;)

I had a Thanksgiving-like meal from the cafeteria. It was a lot of food, so I got rid of half of it.

Man... i'm almost as hungry as I imagine Puffy to be... on the other hand, I hate cafeteria food.

I've got ramen noodles waiting for me at home. Mmmmm... ramen!

No lunch for me today.

[KronoRed]

precocious

I am not precocious :D

Ahh ramen noodles..40C for a good meal :D

[KronoRed]

Fra-gile. It must be french!

Like french toast?

[KronoRed]

Go Yankees!! They were almost dead, down 2-0, but the big guns came through and its looking like a Yankees-Sox ALCS! And I say, go yanks!!

yanks suck. :D

[zombie-a-go-go]

Ahh ramen noodles..40C for a good meal :D

Yep... I live large.

[KronoRed]

Yep... I live large.

Throw some crackers in and you have a feast

I'm serious, for awhile that's all I ate

[KronoRed]

So after mailing my broken XBox to the cats at Replacement Products, they mailed me a gift certificate for the purchase price, which is to say that I can buy either another XBox or a PS2. I want to make this purchase before the weekend, so I have something to do on Monday (banker's holiday, but all my friends have to work), but I can't decide whether or not to get the PS2 (GTA: San Andreas) or another XBox (Halo2, plus my friends have Boxes so I can borrow games from them).

I ask the thread for guidance.

I'd go with a PS2, Metal Gear 3 will be ps2 only for awhile :)

[KronoRed]

I say.... doesn't matter, Boston's going to the World Series. :D
Gonna win it :gac:

[zombie-a-go-go]

Throw some crackers in and you have a feast

I'm serious, for awhile that's all I ate

2 bags of ramen, 1 egg, and a half-can of vegetable soup... now that's a feast.

Add tabasco sauce.

[KronoRed]

No pulp?

Heresy.

Breakfast was a frosted honey bun from the vendomatic. :thumbdown

Pulp makes me wanna puke, pulp free is the way to go :D

[KronoRed]

2 bags of ramen, 1 egg, and a half-can of vegetable soup... now that's a feast.

Sounds good..thanks for the recipe :D

[KronoRed]

Well, I got sucked into the VP debate thread - I was being so good and now I've failed.

However, in my defense, when people go around claiming that the "majority of people" do anything they are opeing themselves up because how does anyone know what the majority really thinks. Its like the words always or never.

The Majority of this thread is cool :RedinDC:

[KronoRed]

Breakfast was a granola bar and apple juice

Like Puffys, but diffrent in every way :D

[Roy Tucker]

I am not precocious :D
So if "precocious" means "early maturing", does "cocious" mean "mature"?

Like, "Wooo! Judy sure does look cocious these days. Where did she get those from?".

I usually think the person asking me is a little desperate, but I still go any way. :mhcky21:

Hows everyone doing today :)

[airalex]

Lunch was...... hot wings :D

[westofyou]

Serious question, guys!

How do guys feel about being asked out?

Same way women do.

Depends on who's doing the 'asking'

But in this day and age, if a guy has a problem with being asked than that's just the tip of the iceberg of other aspects of life that might be restricted.

[airalex]

I also had a Pepsi :)

[zombie-a-go-go]

How do guys feel about being asked out?

I don't think they feel any differently about it than women do. It's an individual response thing. But there's certainly no social stigma attached to it, at least not in the minds of we renaissance men.*



*This does not mean I go around dressed up in pirate-shirts and blousy pants.

[zombie-a-go-go]

Boston is NOT gonna win the WS, they are cursed. :allovrjr:

There's no such thing as a curse.

And the Dodgers just don't have the arms to get past the Cards.

She's been attracted to this guy for a long time, but feels like a goofy, shy teenager around him. Really out of character for her.

Guy is a little shy around her, but I think he would like to ask her out too.

Should she wait until he gets up the nerve, or should I tell her to go for it?

Go for it.

Waiting's for sissies. If you want something, you've got to take it.

[Puffy]

Oh yeah, tell her to show some skin when asking - that will guarantee a favorable response.

[westofyou]

Waiting's for sissies. If you want something, you've got to take it.

You republican you. ;) :allovrjr:

[RosieRed]

Definitely tell her to go for it TC. Worst-case scenario, he says no. Life goes on.

By far, my favorite game to play when trying to decide whether to do something is the "what if" game. Rarely does it end with "I'll die," thus life always goes on. :)

[KronoRed]

Go for it :)

[Puffy]

I'm going to Hooters tonight. Maybe I'll ask out some chicks too. I'm definitely going to show some skin, that always helps me out.

[KronoRed]

So if "precocious" means "early maturing", does "cocious" mean "mature"?

Like, "Wooo! Judy sure does look cocious these days. Where did she get those from?".

That's not a word..

Wait this isn't scrabble :D

I have absolutely nothing planned for today. I've already called the DMV and can't take my driving test today, which means I have the whole entire day free. I love that feeling. :)

Of course, I probably should go practice the cone thing somewhere. I just can't help but to think that I've been parallel parking for YEARS and I've never hit a car. Surely I can get through some cones? Then that whole being-16-and-hitting-a-cone flashback hits me, and I'm not so sure. Hmm.

[RosieRed]

I'm listening to an old K's Choice album, which has this song on it:

Artist: K's choice
Song: I Smoke A Lot
Album: The Great Subconscious Club


I smoke a lot
I'm not talking weed or pot
I smoke the regular stuff
I smoke a lot
And if you're a smoker too
You are to know sometimes it's tough
To be in healthy company
People who always say
You smoke a lot
Imagine the amount of money you could save if you'd quit
You smoke a lot
By now you'd have a bike, aren't you concerned about the kids
Well, of course, sure I am, concerned (a bit)
But about that bike, I could get killed with it
And is that what you really want
(It's not)

So I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
My God I smoke a lot, and I feel fine
And I feel fine
I smoke a lot

I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
Sometimes it's great
Sometimes it's not
But I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot

[KronoRed]

This CD also has the song "Breakfast":

I woke up between dawn and night
Thought I heard the voice of Mommy
Sounds as if my parents had a fight
So I woke up my brother lying next to me

I wonder why she's making all that noise
Better go and check it out
So trying not to breathe only the sound of little feet
We were about to discover what that noise was all about

And as we opened up the door
We saw them lying on the kitchen floor.
We were grateful for they both did their best
But we said hey, there must be an easier way to make breakfast

they both got up real fast
As if they were caught (or something)
And then we understood at last
It was a surprise breakfast they were planning

Mommy stumbled, later, kids, you'll understand
While daddy was busy putting on his pants
We said we already do, don't worry, we'll do the rest
So far for our quest, we made coffee, boiled eggs
We made them breakfast

I just went through this with my son.

We set up the cones and he practiced (and practiced and practiced and ...). After a few sessions, he got pretty good at it (and got a 100 on his test).

I hopped in the car and did it the first time. But then, I've driven a lot of different kinds of vehicles, can back up a trailer, drove auto-cross, etc etc so take it with a grain of salt.

The only place I know of that I can practice at is a driver's ed place up in West Chester, where they always have cones set up. I went there last night, but there were three cars already waiting to practice. I practiced a ton when I was 16 (way back in the day ;) ) and still failed on my first try. My mirror touched a yardstick sticking up from the cone. I passed the second time.

Well, worst thing that could happen is I fail, and have to take it again a week later. At this point, what's one more week with no license?

Good place to eat with black velvet paintings of clowns crying.

Should she wait until he gets up the nerve, or should I tell her to go for it?

Go for it TC...ask him out :mhcky21: !

I didn't think it was as hard as parallel parking and just didn't think it was that tough. Just roll slowly (don't stop) and use your side mirrors. And don't roll over the cone foot, Zach did that a lot at first.

He got cones from a friend of his that look like rejects from a highway project (and they're still sitting in the garage).

[Red Leader]

Hey EVERYBODY!! :wave:

I've been told that I am going to continue with the "outside" work I've been doing through the week, but will be back next Monday at which time I will resume my normal schedule. 2 airalex questions lined up for Monday!!

Thought I'd get caught up on the thread while I have a little time.

[RosieRed]

Thanks for the tips Roy! :)

I just found out some exciting news! My friend e-mailed me this article. (It's exciting to us because we were obsessed with the plane, because we were sort of obsessed with the movie. Billy Zane ... :luvu: ) Kinda sad for Tenn. though.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - One of the most famous airplanes of World War Two is headed to Ohio.

But that's giving preservationists in its namesake city of Memphis the blues.

The Memphis Belle was named for the sweetheart of its wartime pilot. Local preservationists have struggled for decades to keep it in Tennessee.

The military wants to move the airplane by the end of the month to its museum at Ohio's Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton (Ohio).

The Air Force wants to use the plane to tell the story of the air war over German-occupied Europe.

The Belle was one of the first B-17's to complete a required 25 combat missions in the war. Its crew came home for a nationwide bond-selling tour and the Belle became a wartime symbol of heroism and sacrifice.

I need TiVo. I forgot South Park was on last night because I was watching the Yankee game and CSI:NY and just missed it. With TiVo that wouldn't happen.


Dude, you missed a great one. I skipped watching baseball last night to watch the 30 year "rap" specials on VH1, which were hella-cool and then caught South Park late last night.

South Park was great. It was the one where Cartman decides to sign up for the Special Olympics to try and win $1000. Timmuh and Jimmuh were in the Special Olympics and Jimmuh was taking steroids to try and beat the others. Cartman practiced dressing, speaking, and acting mentally retarded to convince others that he belonged and that he was going to win the $1000 "for sure". Kyle told him it was morally wrong and that he was going to hell. Cartman told Kyle that if had seen "The Passion" he would have known that hell is reserved for non-believers and Jews. Cartman got his butt kicked in the Special Olympics and came in last. Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, and Jason Giambi presented the Special Athlete Award to Jimmuh, who cracked and admitted he had been doign steroids. In all, very good episode. :thumbup:

Oh, I also watched the beginning of Fast Times at Ridgemont High this morning. I forgot how funny that movie really is. I liked the story Spiccoli told his buddies in the burger joint about meeting Mick Jagger and Mick giving him the guitar pick. He then gives it to his buddy and says "its cool, you showed interest." :MandJ: I don't know why, but I laughed about that for about 1/2 hour this morning while I was getting ready. Really funny stuff.

I had Subway for lunch. But not just any Subway, Noooooooo, free Subway, cause I filled up that free sandwich card. Still had to pay $2.33 for a soda and cookies, but I saved almost three dollars for the sandwich - yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

And that $3 will go to - - - - - - - - - - BEER! OK, its only enough for one beer, but still, its beer.

[zombie-a-go-go]

Weekend coffee is the best coffee.

You see, I start every morning off with a pot of coffee. On weekdays I get up 'round 4, brew the pot, and it's gone by the time I leave for work ~7:30 or so. But weekday morning coffee is just a fuel. I use the pre-ground Max-House stuff... there's not much flavor to it, but that's not what I want ti for. I just need it to get me up and going in the morning.

Weekend coffee, is another bird entirely. That's when you have time to savor, to enjoy the coffee. Weekends call for gourmet beans and the grinder. While a pot of coffee may only last me about 3 hours on a weekday, the weekend pot lasts into the early afternoon.

Mmm. I'm looking forward to Saturday.

So, you all from Ohio have to navigate through cones during your driving test??

As a New Yorker, we did not have to do that, at least when I took the test in the late 80s. We had to drive through the city, do a three point turn and parallel park. But that was it.

I don't consider it a political thread.

Though you'll notice that the first response on there is by me and is a joke; a plan on people's inability to produce the second "n" in Lindner over on baseball-side.

I thought I was pretty clever.

[Puffy]

So I changed my wallpaper on this computer station from a red background and a "ny" (in the style of the the Giants helmet) to a blue background and the "ny" the day after the Eagles blew out the Giants. Since then the Giants are 3-0. Coincidence?? I think not!

And people think they can't affect their favorite teams - fools!

[KronoRed]

The only place I know of that I can practice at is a driver's ed place up in West Chester, where they always have cones set up. I went there last night, but there were three cars already waiting to practice. I practiced a ton when I was 16 (way back in the day ;) ) and still failed on my first try. My mirror touched a yardstick sticking up from the cone. I passed the second time.

Well, worst thing that could happen is I fail, and have to take it again a week later. At this point, what's one more week with no license?

I failed twice, first time I did a U turn when he asked for a turn a-bout, and the 2nd I ran down a trash can :mhcky21:

I did see that, and though of the same joke when I was reading the original article, but you got there first, so I say very clever indeed.

And I also will side with you on the non-political aspect of it, although if you read through it it argues as dems on the one side and repubs on the other, for the most part.

[KronoRed]

I didn't think it was as hard as parallel parking and just didn't think it was that tough. Just roll slowly (don't stop) and use your side mirrors. And don't roll over the cone foot, Zach did that a lot at first.

He got cones from a friend of his that look like rejects from a highway project (and they're still sitting in the garage).

Go kick them ;)

I had to take all the driving tests again after letting my license unknowingly expire.

I practiced using the lines in an empty parking lot. We don't have a maneuverability test in NY, so I wasn't sure what to expect. It was very similar to backing out of our garage. I have to back out and make a sharp turn to stay in the driveway and out of the ravine. It was really simple when I actually went for the test. The hardest part is remembering the instructions. (Lining your front tires to the last cone.)

[KronoRed]

So, you all from Ohio have to navigate through cones during your driving test??

As a New Yorker, we did not have to do that, at least when I took the test in the late 80s. We had to drive through the city, do a three point turn and parallel park. But that was it.

When I did my NY test, they asked for a broken K turn. I asked, "What the hell is that?" It was what I call a 3 point turn. You also have to parallel park. That's a tougher one for me, because I never have to do it in real life. I've never lived in a city.
