- fwiw, whenever I hear them at home I just assume it's a drill. -- nm - znufrii Sep 20, 13:01 1
  - Really? Drills in the communities I've lived in have always, always happened at the same day/time. - TWuG Sep 20, 13:03
- There's a bit of selection bias going on there since everyone questioned actually survived. -- nm - TWuG Sep 20, 12:54 3
  - my unscientific gut feeling is that the deceased were even less likely to have taken immediate actions. -- nm - loosilu Sep 20, 12:57 2
    - Given the severity of the storm I'd be surprised if there was any right choice. - TWuG Sep 20, 13:01 1
      - It would be pretty easy to count the number of people who died in storm cellars. -- nm - loosilu Sep 20, 13:05

  - everyone takes routine risks. -- nm - loosilu Sep 20, 12:57

how did I not know that my non-boyfriend jason statham was in the expendables? you are all fired. -- nm - amanda jones Sep 20, 12:29 8
- Jason Statham has really only filmed one movie. They just keep finding edited out clips to make "new" ones. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:31 2
  - All they had for Collateral was him walking through an airport. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 20, 12:32 1
    - I didn't realize he was in that. see? no crush. none. -- nm - amanda jones Sep 20, 12:38
- he also has a new one - straight to DVD ( I assume) - Blitz -- nm - Epiphany Sep 20, 12:30 2

Local kid who died after jumping naked from a moving car was reported to have been on a bad acid trip :( -- (link) - MojaveMeg Sep 20, 12:26 6
- luckily, i never had a bad trip - moles Sep 20, 12:42
- I love that the news will specify a "bad" trip. - The Ruiner Sep 20, 12:42 1
  - "it was a good acid trip all in all, up until the moment the blubber hit the road" -- nm - report we didn't see Sep 20, 12:46
- That's so quaint. Today's hip kids are doing that on bath salts. -- nm - Ender Sep 20, 12:39 1
  - i was thinking, does anybody still do acid? today's reporters wouldn't know or care about the diff btw x acid or salts - zeitgeist Sep 20, 12:43
- He was 22, so not quite as weird of a story then if he were, say 7. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:31
Kansas City Star: Mizzou has SEC offer, waiting to see the future of Big 12 before deciding -- (link) - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:25 20
- I like what Mizzou brings to the table in terms of football and basketball. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 20, 12:29 7
  - It'll be interesting to see how they fare in football. Their recent record against the SEC has been stellar... - Jim Sep 20, 12:32 3
    - The other thing about the SEC that outsiders don't really understand... - David, Archer fan Sep 20, 12:36 2
      - (And I think that out of the Big 12, Missouri's scheme translates the best to that sort of brutal schedule.) -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 20, 12:36 1
        
        I'm actually excited about the possibility. But I'll be real bummed to lose the Mizzou/KU basketball rivalry. That's my favorite Mizzou rivalry - Jim Sep 20, 12:37
  - I fully support this move, based on my previously mentioned criteria (Not FSU, not VT) -- nm - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:30 2
    - I think the SEC is going to 16 right now. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 20, 12:31 1
      - I'm going to cry if FSU leaves. - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:32
- What future of the Big 12? Don't blink guys, grab the chair now! -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 20, 12:26 11
  - At this point, the fate of the Big 12 is in Texas' hands. - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:28 9
    - texas and oklahoma, both probalby will join the pac 12. k-state and ku will join something. iowa state maybe big ten bound. -- nm - tRuMaN Sep 20, 12:30
    - Ain't happening. Boren is taking OU to the Pac 12/14 becuase he knows he'll forever be at the whims of UT. - Will Hunting Sep 20, 12:30 7
      - Totally agreed. But the Baylor lawsuit concern has everyone hesitant to take the first step. - ty97 Sep 20, 12:32 3
        
        except Syracuse & Pittsburgh. They basically gave the rest of the Big East a middle finger. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:33 2
        
        My comment is Big 12-specific. I'd like to see Baylor sue Pitt and Syracuse though :) -- nm - ty97 Sep 20, 12:34 1
        
        that would be great -- nm - prayformojo Sep 20, 12:35
      - TT/OSU can go pound sand. Let them look for another conference. MWC? WAC? Replace them with TCU. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:31 2
        
        End of the day, the Big 12 is done...the other schools will figure out that the UT/OU thing is a sham for them and will bolt. - Will Hunting Sep 20, 12:33 1
        
        I think they're done also, but I do think the UT/OU network would salvage the conference. - Strongbad Sep 20, 12:34
  - That's code for "figuring out how not to get sued by Baylor" I think. - ty97 Sep 20, 12:27
Study says the greater the number of people who disagree with you the more likely you'll stick to your guns. -- (link) - TWuG Sep 20, 12:25 3

Not sure if any of you do MyPoints, but check for a $20 gift card for $10 to Chilis in your emails from them. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:25 7
- I thought you were calling them Qale Points. -- nm - colin Sep 20, 12:25 6
  - -10 Qale Points for misinterpreting my post. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:28 5
    - not like i had anywhere near enough to get a Chili's gift card anyway. -- nm - colin Sep 20, 12:31 4
      - You had 4. Now... -6. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:32 3
        
        that qualifies me for a Signature Qale Mugging, i believe.. - colin Sep 20, 12:34 2
        
        It's too bad you won't be here for my birthday on Oct 9th. The city is throwing me a parade. -- nm - Qale Sep 20, 12:39 1
        
        Yaaay! I'll check out the pictures in the AJC :) - colin Sep 20, 12:40

  - I asked her if we could check it out because ik knew will would like to try a bottle of fruit wine if they had it. - kelly Sep 20, 12:39
- LIR. I figured that was the case (that you didn't drink)...Mrs.Jax post was....ambiguous :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Sep 20, 12:32 2

- thanks for clarifying! -- nm - amanda jones Sep 20, 12:26
- OFFS. Welcome to a public board. -- nm - The Ruiner Sep 20, 12:25 5
  - Not sure what the public board has to do with this. - Will Hunting Sep 20, 12:25 4
    - i think every post i've seen has been jokingly intended. unless i missed something. -- nm - Andie Sep 20, 12:41 3
      - I thought it was too, not sure why Spawn got upset -- nm - amoxy Sep 20, 12:43 2
        
        I don't think, respectfully, that it was spawn who was upset. -- nm - amanda jones Sep 20, 12:47 1
        
        when you actually type out "not going there" you're actually going right there. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 20, 12:50
