  - yeah, how many feet in a mile? that's logical. -- nm - Andie Apr 20, 07:54 1
    - well, there are 1760 yards in a mile, so... -- nm - decline Apr 20, 08:26
- 8 litres is like 3500 calories. granted she didn't eat much else, but that's still probably at least 4000 calories/day. that's huge. -- nm - mafic Apr 20, 07:41
- it's very uniform. 12oz cans/bottles, 16 oz bottles, 2Liter bottles... -- nm - decline Apr 20, 07:21 2
  - I have seen some creep with the tiny cans as well. I suppose they are for children... -- nm - con_carne Apr 20, 08:03
  - The 16oz bottles are actually half-liter, or 16.9oz. I have seen some 1-liter bottles also, but they are rare. -- nm - GregW Apr 20, 07:34
- 2 L, 24oz, 20oz, cans (i think) -- nm - tRuMaN, (not a knock off version) Apr 20, 07:20 19
  - Ah, I see, the math checks out. Always wondered where they got 591mL :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 20, 07:22
  - 12oz cans. 20oz bottles, 1 liter, 2 liter -- nm - CQ: Pressure Checker Apr 20, 07:20 17
    - i can't believe you guys use liters for pop, and *Nothing Else*. -- nm - Andie Apr 20, 07:23 16
      - we are so behind the times - it's crazy -- nm - Epiphany Apr 20, 08:03
      - Aha! Isn't it "litres?" - con_carne Apr 20, 07:50 2
        
        oh, we spell it litres, but assumed you guys didn't. - Andie Apr 20, 07:54 1

        believe it or not, i've seen Five Finger Death Punch (they opened for Korn), i actually thought they were okay live - Andie Apr 20, 08:24 4
        
        I like a few of their songs - but I worry about the gravely voice. I thought maybe that might not come off so well - Epiphany Apr 20, 08:26 3
        
        well the concert is in a big open park, so you can always walk to get refreshments during stuff - tRuMaN, (not a knock off version) Apr 20, 08:27 2
        
        that is an impressive line up - Chevelle is great live and their song is pretty big right now -- nm - Epiphany Apr 20, 08:29 1
        
        rev theory is also supposedly very good live. -- nm - tRuMaN, (not a knock off version) Apr 20, 08:32

        oh stop. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 20, 08:22
        
        Seems like it sometimes. It isn't a coincidence that they're playing the Yankees this weekend. - Krusty Apr 20, 07:46 5
        
        it'll be a nice solid 5 hour game. -- nm - CQ: Pressure Checker Apr 20, 07:48 4

        Bobby Doerr wasn't alive the last time a GM won them a World Title before Theo. If you're celebrating the triumphs of a century of that park - Will Hunting Apr 20, 07:27
        
        it's friggin' Theo. - Mel Profit Apr 20, 07:20
The economy must be looking up. STers have gone from being out of work/looking for work to dumping this f*ck-ass job and getting a better one. -- nm - Mop Apr 20, 07:10 5
