    - actually, these are supposed to be nice, breathable.. waterproof. -- (link) - colin Sep 8, 11:29
  - I always just hike in my sneakers. Keep in mind that the first time you use a pair of hiking boots, your feet will need to adjust and you'll be *sore* -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 11:27 7
    - (so basically, break them in some before your trip) -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 11:29
    - I really like trail sneakers. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:28 5
      - Hmm. Never heard of that! -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 11:28 4
        
        I don't think they're usually called that? maybe light hikers or trail runners. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:30 3
        
        Here's an example. they call it a hiking shoe. -- (link) - loosilu Sep 8, 11:33 2
        
        that doesn't look so sturdy to me. -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:35 1
        
        It's merrell! of course it's sturdy! seriously, they're fine. You're not walking on fields of iron spikes, I'm guessing. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:37
  - I have had leather, and I would say not leather. so heavy. the synthetics are so good now. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:24

- I hope he's not done-done. I don't really want the Brady-Manning era to ever end. -- nm - TFox Sep 8, 11:24
- @YahooNoise Again, I would be surprised if Peyton Manning takes a single snap this year, IF he undergoes a third neck procedure. -- nm - Shaun Sep 8, 11:23

  - 2nd round last night I think :) -- nm - Beaker Sep 8, 11:28 1
    - Ah. Thought someone posted yesterday about someone in their league taking him in the 6th round. - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:32
- This is it for him. I really do not see him coming back after this many neck surgeries - amoxy Sep 8, 11:22 7
  - The real problem is that if he tries, D-linemen will smell blood in the water. - David Sep 8, 11:25 3
    - By next year, the rules will have changed that QBs are not even allowed to be tackled. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:27 2

  - With his contract? He will be back next year. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:25 2
    - Is there any sense of betrayal with him pushing for the new deal knowing at the time he was reallly hurt? - Will Hunting Sep 8, 11:26 1
      - He was pushing for the new contract since a year or two ago, so no. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:27

SomewhatLIR: TT was definitely online when the Towers fell. -- nm - Inigo Sep 8, 11:16 3

- Nmb inigo - kelly Sep 8, 11:18 1

- ahh. - Andie Sep 8, 11:16 2
  - (also - it could be at my house right now, you know?) -- nm - Andie Sep 8, 11:16 1
    - I hope so!! or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have it - Epiphany Sep 8, 11:19
I don't know how to check this - but I posted a few times before TT moved to ST - I think even back before TT had separated "movie" talk from the - JenBro Sep 8, 11:14 4
- you can go to "Trade History" on your portfolio and start to scrolling way the hell back - moles Sep 8, 11:15 3
  - really? I'll check it tonight - that's awesome. I do remember it was sometime around the time the first Harry Potter movies were IPO'ing because - JenBro Sep 8, 11:18 2
    - did you tell their ass "PPDM!" -- nm - moles Sep 8, 11:19 1
      - sadly no - I wasn't saavy to the term until you posted it to me a bit ago. -- nm - JenBro Sep 8, 11:22
color of money chat q: they are engaged. he wants to get married now, she wants to wait a year to figure out the division of their finances and such - moles Sep 8, 11:14 20
- Easy, just ever combine finances. If you want to wait an extra six months, fine. But finances aren't a reason why. - Dr.Vermin Sep 8, 11:23 1
  - ever = never -- nm - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 8, 11:29
- Sound like an accountant/money manager type person. Definitely discuss money before marriage. -- nm - TWuG Sep 8, 11:19
- "I think it's worth it to wait a year and see how we mesh living together." is the key sentence. - TFox Sep 8, 11:17 5
  - everyone should know what it's like to live with someone in all four seasons before they get married. -- nm - Max Sep 8, 11:18 4
    - That's a lot of sin -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 11:24
    - I'm best in fall. -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:20 1
      - ... legs in the air. -- nm - dignan SI Sep 8, 11:22
    - we don't have seasons in LA - moles Sep 8, 11:20
- Advice to the dude: do what she says or walk away while you can get out free. She's money paranoid and won't feel any better after you're married. - Max Sep 8, 11:17 3
  - I think she is more ... overly practical. I think what she is not considering is that you can still keep your finances separate while living together - kare Sep 8, 11:38
  - maybe he is irresponsible with money. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:19 1
    - To a paranoiac, everyone is. -- nm - Dr.Johnny Vermin, ;) Sep 8, 11:36
- OFFS - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:16 6
  - It's not like she wants to wait years, it is just 6 months -- nm - amoxy Sep 8, 11:21 1
    - That's what you said last year when Biggs and Tank left -- nm - Luke Skywalker Sep 8, 11:24
  - i don't fault her for wanting to be responsible though. -- nm - Andie Sep 8, 11:17 3
    - me neither. Figuring out how you'll handle money as a couple is a big deal. - Diva Sep 8, 11:23 2
      - These negotiations are not going to go any differently if they last 6 days or 6 months, though. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:25 1
        
        That's true, though bad habits take time to appear. - kare Sep 8, 11:42

- He also posted to ST! - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:13
[deleted] 19
- Tone! -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:12
- I feel I need to clarify here. This is exactly how I feel. It is not the same as "complaining" that it's everywhere. I'm just trying to avoid it. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:12 17
  - fine. and let's just all leave it at that....nm - x Sep 8, 11:14 2
    - i'm sure this will be the last word -- nm - moles Sep 8, 11:14 1
      - it would have been!....nm - x Sep 8, 11:15
  - And now, guess what *we're* trying to avoid? - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 8, 11:13 13
    - Hey - kelly Sep 8, 11:17
    - can we all agree that it's a difficult topic that makes people upset and we should respect each other's reaction? -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:14 11
      - if your reaction is "i don't want to hear about any of this" the boards probably aren't the place for you to be -- nm - moles Sep 8, 11:16 10
        
        so much for the last word! I respect everyone's need to talk about it here. maybe I will avoid it if it's too much, we'll see. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:18 9
        
        just one more thing ... This is MY problem. I don't expect anyone else to do anythign different. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:24 8
        
        I'm having a lot of trouble with it, really, but I just keep my mouth shut. - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:25 7
        
        yes, very much this. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:26 6
        
        Since I kinda started this on B2, for my part, I'll say go ahead and complain about whatever you want. No topic is off limits, IMO. - con_carne Sep 8, 11:36 3
        
        it was my intention on b2, yes. it seems impossible to say anything that doesn't offend someone, you know? -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:39 1
        
        As someone already pointed out, the particular topic being complained about is something people feel strongly about, so offense is hard to avoid -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 11:42
        
        this posts sucks!....nm - x Sep 8, 11:38
        
        so just don't complain. walk. -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:30 1

these boots are made for hiking -- nm - moles Sep 8, 11:09 4
- would you please just link me to boots and tell me what to buy??? -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:11 3
  - oooh. maybe these? who hikes? where is CQ? -- (link) - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:12 2
    - depending on how soon you need them, you could eye steepandcheap.com. it's backcountry's wootesque page. - TFox Sep 8, 11:15 1
      - oh, I make out with your best friend. thanks. -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:17
my friend's father asked me to go canoeing this weekend because the rivers will be super high and it'll be crazy fun. - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:08 31
- if there's anything 80s teen comedies have taught me, a canoe trip is a sure way to wind up lost in the wildnerness with your clueless friends -- nm - moles Sep 8, 11:30 1
  - don't worry, a trio of hot babes will be along shortly. -- nm - Max Sep 8, 11:34
- do it. but only if the rule is the first one to sit down is a wuss....nm - x Sep 8, 11:19
- good luck with the portages -- nm - peglegpete Sep 8, 11:18
- I would not - way to dangerous -- nm - decline Sep 8, 11:17
- i'd say unless you are a hardcore canoeing expert, this isn't the time to be out playing. -- nm - Andie Sep 8, 11:14
- I have some large scars from a river rafting misadventure, so I say... - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 8, 11:12 7
  - Rafting in Alaska was SO awesome. They wrapped in these huge orange suits. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 8, 11:20
  - didn't you almost die? -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:16 4
    - Mmmm... that's probably a little dramatic. - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 8, 11:19 3
      - maybe it was how you told the story. ;P -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:20 2
        
        I'll thank you to respect my own reaction. -- nm - Dr.Johnny Vermin, ;) Sep 8, 11:30 1
        
        your feelings are WRONG! -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:35
  - (your autonick amuses me) - con_carne Sep 8, 11:13
- Hoke! Paddle faster! -- nm - Daisy Sep 8, 11:11
- Sounds like he's working for Darwin candidacy :/ -- nm - MojaveMeg Sep 8, 11:11
- well, more water doesn't necessarily mean more dangerous. might just mean less rocks to get caught on. - TFox Sep 8, 11:10 4
  - Wouldn't more water mean faster moving? -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:11 3
    - yes, plus lots of crap under the surface (large branches) that were not there before. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:13
    - well yes, but that's a matter of degree too. faster is fine if normally it'd be tediously slow in september. -- nm - TFox Sep 8, 11:12 1
      - As someone that does not like water, I say it is all bad! -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:12
- Danger Girl. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 8, 11:10
- "Could you also sign this for me before we get in? No need to read, I just need a signature." -- nm - Max Sep 8, 11:09
- correct, NFW -- nm - prayformojo Sep 8, 11:09 6
  - this -- nm - Beaker Sep 8, 11:11
  - great. "craig, we need to have a talk about your dad. he's an attempted murderer." -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:10 4
    - Make it a movie night and watch Point Break instead. -- nm - Max Sep 8, 11:12 3
      - like I'm *dating* craig's dad. -- nm - HPV McGee Sep 8, 11:21 1
        
        I'm just pointing out he should see what happens when you go surfing in the storm of the century. -- nm - Max Sep 8, 11:22
      - and then Bad Boys 2 -- nm - Roger More Sep 8, 11:13
- dangerous. -- nm - loosilu Sep 8, 11:09
