- very nice -- nm - amoxy Dec 16, 21:58
Cisco might sell off Linksys. I think a competent company should buy it ... that would be nice. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 21:44 1
- what would they have to sell, the name and some old patents? or would this be their whole consumer product division? -- nm - 4droidz Dec 16, 21:57
Hey Stalkers - who has received their SS gift? -- nm - kelly Dec 16, 21:33 13
- I've sent and received. Just waiting for confirmation 2nd box has been received. -- nm - LMS Dec 17, 06:39

      - in the desert -- nm - peglegpete Dec 16, 21:57
    - I should send you a lump of coal ;) -- nm - Meg Dec 16, 21:45 3
      - then he can light his box on fire. -- nm - Remlik Dec 16, 21:57 2
        
        no, he still needs fire -- nm - peglegpete Dec 16, 21:58 1

"This is Victoria. She died a hero today..." -- (link) - zork Dec 16, 21:17 8
- I think we've long since filled our quota of these kinds of "heroes" let's just settle for people not getting shot to death at all for no reason -- nm - prisoner 24601 Dec 16, 21:32 1
  - It's partly that and partly that it was that close to the death toll being 20+ higher -- nm - zork Dec 16, 21:41
- Guns are made to fire a bullet. Humans choose what to do with them. -- (link) - Spawn Dec 16, 21:24 5

    - If you think the police should not carry guns, perhaps you should move to England? -- nm - Spawn Dec 16, 21:35 3
      - When did I say that? Besides, some police carry guns in England. -- nm - zork Dec 16, 21:37 2
        
        Because you think the police are out to kill animals or humans. -- nm - Spawn Dec 16, 21:40 1
        
        Unfortunately, they may have to take down a psycho but they are trained for those situations -- nm - zork Dec 16, 21:43

See you next week, Reagen. -- nm - nubby Dec 16, 21:09

- chanuka just ended, gifting down -- nm - 4droidz Dec 16, 22:04
- My stalkee package is set to go out tomorrow. -- nm - Dano Dec 16, 21:32
- I just finished the cover letter so my stalkee knows which kids some of the stuff is for. shipping is tuesday. tomorrow is supposed to be USPS busiest -- nm - peglegpete Dec 16, 21:19 3

- My stalkee has not yet confirmed receiving his - or her - package. I'm worried it won't arrive in time. -- nm - Mop Dec 16, 21:08 1
  - Same here. I sent it back on December 5th. I recognize it had to go to another country, but I'm starting to get worried. -- nm - Qale Dec 16, 21:16
- Can I be crowned Astronauts champion early, then? -- nm - nubby Dec 16, 21:05

@SportsCenter: Wes Welker is the first player in NFL history with 5 seasons of at least 100 receptions. -- nm - nubby Dec 16, 20:54 1
- Yeah, Marvin was pretty close a couple seasons but only broke 100 in 4 of them. -- nm - Spawn Dec 16, 21:48
The Pats just want to make this more difficult. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:54
Don't like those calls at all. Three straight running plays? - No. 1 Stephen in the nation! Dec 16, 20:52 2
- Brady only has 2:56 and 2 timeouts. That's safe right? - Shaun via PlayBook Dec 16, 20:54 1

Crabtree!!! -- nm - No. 1 Stephen in the nation! Dec 16, 20:42 3
- WOOOO! -- nm - amoxy Dec 16, 20:44
- One thing I've always noticed - we're on a wicked delay. ST posts results of plays before we're even seeing them start. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:44 1
  - That's quite a delay (and sorry, that sucks). -- nm - No. 1 Stephen in the nation! Dec 16, 21:17
New England plays at a wicked pace. -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:42 4
- WOODHEAD -- nm - Tim Dec 16, 20:44 2

Survivor reunion spoiler - the wrong element, bad guy Dec 16, 20:41 1
- Indeed. She was there to win. He was there to get famous. Both failed. -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:43
This is how the Broncos played in some of their early season games. Give away the first half then mount a furious comeback in the second -- nm - prayformojo Dec 16, 20:41 3
- Has your opinion of Manning changed any now that you've watched him all season for your team? - David Dec 16, 20:45 2
  - I reaaaallly struggle with it - prayformojo Dec 16, 20:47 1
    - You made the best football comment I've seen all season when you pointed out how much NE's offense is predicated on what they learned defensing Peyton -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:53
This is friggin' nuts. -- nm - Jelly Dec 16, 20:39
Geez, save some for next week, team! - nubby Dec 16, 20:37 3
- At least at this point there's nothing ML could have done. -- nm - nubby Dec 16, 20:42
- whoa, they decided to play some football this 2nd half, must have been some locker room pep talk -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 16, 20:41
- even if the Pats lose the NFL is on notice still. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:39
Ron Killings tweets a picture of what his knee looked like after his match -- (link) - Remlik Dec 16, 20:36 1

Do not taunt Happy Fun Belichick. -- nm - Reagen Dec 16, 20:24 5
- At 31-3, I didn't feel like the game was over. That says everything about the Patriots offense. -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:26 4
  - wha, huh? I was doing the dishes and comeback and...there's a football game on...again -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 16, 20:31
  - an offense minus Gronk. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:28 2
    - I maintain that Welker is the key cog in that offense. That's why I'm surprised BB has been reluctant to extend him. -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:33 1
      - I totally agree that Welker is still the center of the offenses ability to be effective... - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:36
Ugh! The fates are conspiring! 30 minutes before the start of Survivor, the power goes off. -- nm - Mop Dec 16, 20:20 2

Wilfork is a beast. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 16, 20:14
Skupin is the first person I've ever seen who looked better on the island than at the reunion. -- nm - David Dec 16, 20:11 2
- Yeah, he doesn't look good unless he has a face full of scabs. -- nm - Roger More Dec 16, 20:18
- I laughed at this, but also, I think there was at least one person prior to him who fit this as well. Possibly a woman. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 20:16

      - fillibuskers? :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 19:59
  - Agreed. -- nm - Spawn Dec 16, 19:53
- hell yes. there is zero reason for private citizens to own them -- nm - Jovian Dec 16, 19:52 4

      - from medieval days, villagers would assemble after church on sunday to practice with pikes and sheilds incase they had to join in homeland defense - zeitgeist Dec 16, 20:29

  - Yeah, Mrs. NWBR and I found it really soured us on him after we liked him so much this season. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 16, 20:11
  - agreed. It started out typical Penner. But then ended being the most bitter. -- nm - Jovian Dec 16, 19:56
- He loves, loves, *loves* knowing that he is talking on camera. Always has - prayformojo Dec 16, 19:53
