I just went to install Sony Acid Music Studio that I bought back in 2007. - JaxSean Jul 10, 18:39 2
- I'm sure there's a crack -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:39 1

        Well, it's Schuerholz, who will get in the Hall of Fame, but that deal was as bad as I've ever seen. -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:41
    - So neftali, andrus, salty and harrison only has two berths -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 10, 18:32 11
      - I don't follow this. Berths? -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:34 10
        
        slots, appearances, games, roster spots -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 10, 18:36 8

        I'm settled, but I disagree. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 18:57

        Tex for almost exactly a year and a couple of months of living legend Ron Mahay. -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:41

  - Our immortal soul, give or take a bit. - David Jul 10, 18:27

  - It's "too hot to fuck" weather. -- nm - TWuG Jul 10, 18:22 2
    - No such beast. Any bedroom without a ceiling fan is not a bedroom for me. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:24
    - No A/C!? -- nm - miffed67 Jul 10, 18:23
One more thing...I committed a crime on the way home today. I inadvertently shoplifted. (yeah, step off. you reaaaallly don't wanna mess with me) - prayformojo Jul 10, 18:17 6
- In cases like that, I wouldn't feel bad enough to go back. If the store can't be bothered to pay a cashier then they can pay the consequences. - Cuzzin Todd Jul 10, 18:26 2
  - You're ruining complete avoidance of human interaction for the rest of us! -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:27 1
    - Related -- I purposely go to a cashier lane. I refuse to do work for the store and pay the same price. - Fuzzy Jul 10, 18:45
- Your street name shall be "Schroedinger". -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:20
- Did you pay the Violation Fee? - Spawn Jul 10, 18:19

LIR: thanks Jax and Strongbad for opinions on the Samsung. I'm going to go by a store soon and play with a live one! - miffed67 Jul 10, 18:15 2
- I recommended it to Sean. It's a killer phone. -- nm - Mop on Galaxy SIII Jul 10, 18:43
- I would compare it to the HTC OneX too. The only thing I don't like about that one is the non-removeable battery. - JaxSean Jul 10, 18:37
This is ridiculous. Why can't someone design a good electronic medical records system. For the past 2 weeks I have been using Cerner and it is poop. - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 10, 18:02 20
- There are new players coming to the EMR market soon, I think -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:18 14
  - Is that your secret project? Sweet!!! -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:18 13
    - Also, my secret project (one of them) launched already ... To no fanfare. I need to host a creative writing contest on it, I think :) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:26 9
      - Do it! -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:28 8
        
        Contests need prizes! -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:33 7
        
        The power of BANHAMMER for one week! -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:34 6
        
        Holy Shit - Epiphany Jul 10, 18:38
        
        I was thinking of something a bit more ... real-world. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:37 4
        
        ... AVATARS!!! -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:37 3
        
        Settle down Francis -- nm - Epiphany Jul 10, 18:38 2
        
        BANHAMMERS you! -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:39 1
        
        Wouldn't be the 1st time! -- nm - Epiphany Jul 10, 18:44
    - SlackerMED -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 10, 18:23 1
      - I just don't understand why that product name never took off! -- nm - Mop on Galaxy SIII Jul 10, 18:41
    - No, but several of my former coworkers are now at such a startup -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:20
- *cue Mel* -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:06 4
  - Seriously, Mel have you seen Cerner? It seems like a widely used one. It is lame. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 10, 18:11 3
    - I've never seen it. What's the problem? - Mel Profit Jul 10, 18:22 2
      - It is dumb. I seriously couldn't figure out which antibiotic the patient was receiving because different screens showed different things. For whatever - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 10, 18:36 1
        
        That definitely sounds poor designed. - Mel Profit Jul 10, 18:46
Look, I'm a farmer! -- (link) - Cuzzin Todd Jul 10, 18:02
It feels like we never talk about Welcome Back, Kotter any more. -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:02 11
- I think the last time we discussed it was when Epstein died. -- nm - TWuG Jul 10, 18:13 10
  - And this is how we honor his memory? -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:14 9
    - I had a note from his Mom excusing me from discussing the show. -- nm - TWuG Jul 10, 18:16 8
      - What? -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:17 7
        
        She says "Hi." -- nm - TWuG Jul 10, 18:22 6
        
        Where? -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:23 5
        
        Let me check my note... - TWuG Jul 10, 18:26 4
        
        When? -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:29 3
        
        Soon. -- nm - TWuG Jul 10, 18:29 2
        
        What is? Is. What was? Will be. What will be was, but will be again. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:33 1
        
        Vigo: On a mountain of skulls, in the castle of pain, I sat on a throne of blood! What was will be! What is will be no more! - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:35
today driving home i saw a dude texting while driving - prayformojo Jul 10, 17:56 23
- I got in trouble a while back for talking on my phone in the car while pulled over. apparently the cops here don't even like that. -- nm - mafic Jul 10, 18:23 5
  - There is a Dallas Cowboys player who keeps getting pulled over for speeding in our hometown and I laugh every time. - David Jul 10, 18:25
  - That's sort of insane. What, is your car going to spontaneously pop into drive? -- nm - Reagen Jul 10, 18:25 2
    - I think he was just having a bad day and wanted to be a dick. I was a dick right back. -- nm - mafic Jul 10, 18:26 1
      - "And that was the second time I got tased." -- nm - Reagen Jul 10, 18:29
  - "You think he is calling in a hit?" -- nm - One officer to another Jul 10, 18:24
- I've seen someone on a motorcycle check their Blackberry. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 18:10
- I guess those commercials aren't doing much for him. - kelly Jul 10, 18:09
- Darwin is calling. -- nm - Mop on Galaxy SIII Jul 10, 18:08 1
  - (texting) -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:08
- See.. if they are on a motorcycle, I don't care. It is their life. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 10, 18:03 1
  - Because a motorcycle crash tends to impact no one else? -- nm - Reagen Jul 10, 18:05
- Don't you need two hands to ride a bike? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:00 2
  - Clearly, he is an excellent driver. - Spawn Jul 10, 18:08
  - Look Ma, no hands! -- nm - JaxSean Jul 10, 18:02
- There's a reason surgeons call them brain donors. -- nm - David Jul 10, 17:59 6
  - ... organ donors ... -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:00 5
    - 'donorcycles' -- nm - mafic Jul 10, 18:24
    - Helmets are called "brain buckets". -- nm - nubby Jul 10, 18:01
    - Quiet, you. -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:01
    - Yeah, because who'd want that brain? -- nm - mara Jul 10, 18:01
    - Brain donors works, of course: they're just post-op -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:01
- Well, better a motorbike than a Hummer. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 17:57
Choosing AL in All-Star Bingo looks to have been a mistake. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 17:50
Blood Feud is currently 8-7. It's a nailbiter. -- nm - David Jul 10, 17:44 5

Weapons experts question the claim that a woman was fatally shot by a holstered gun while hugging an off-duty cop. -- (link) - mara Jul 10, 17:42 7
- I could see a guy getting startled by the grab from behind, reaching for the gun (thinking that's what they were going for) and accidentally firing it - zeitgeist Jul 10, 17:55 3
  - Especially with that safety set up. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 17:57 2
    - what is that safety? sounds like a lack of one...otoh, what's he doing with a slug in the chamber? -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 10, 17:59 1
      - A trigger safety. Those are the ones you pull with your same finger while firing. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 18:05
- They can't prove it didn't happen because his dog ate the evidence. -- nm - Bacon Jul 10, 17:45

    - There are a few. - Spawn Jul 10, 17:49 2
      - Gracias -- nm - Epiphany Jul 10, 18:29 1
        
        Bub quotes them all. - Spawn Jul 10, 18:31
