- sheeeeee-it, boy. How much did you overpay by? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 21:01 2
  - Well, technically $3,595. It was rent, political credits, some tuition credits and RRSP contributions. Only the RRSP contributions were really... - Name Withheld By Request Mar 1, 21:18
  - I would assume somewhere around the neighborhood of $3,595 -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 21:12

- I've actually become a fan of Eastbound & Down on HBO, surprisingly -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 20:53 4
  - Eastbound and Down is half hilarious and half cringe-worthy. - Trish Mar 1, 21:00 1
    - It's amazing how they can take someting so crude and pathetic and make it watchable. - znufrii Mar 1, 21:01
  - and I'm interested enough in Kings to watch an episode or three... -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 20:54 1

Tivo HD has a Watchmen EPK thing so I played it for my oblivious wife. Her reaction: - Mop Mar 1, 20:40 6
- So when I watched the extended trailer on Directv the other day and loved it, it makes me some kind of freak? Btw, I loathe Beaches and The Notebook - Trish Mar 1, 20:46 3
  - that's because you're actually a guy. - znufrii Mar 1, 20:56 1
    - *smack* The more explosions, the better the movie, baybee! -- nm - Trish Mar 1, 21:04
  - Trish, you are the wind beneath my wings. -- nm - Redmond Mar 1, 20:49
- I disagree. - Beryllium Mar 1, 20:44
- and this is different from any other superhero movie how? -- nm - pigby Mar 1, 20:42
DC got a quarter?! - psilotum Mar 1, 20:37 20
- oh great, we have a half dozen cardboard coin holders that are just filled with states -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 1, 20:47 2
  - yep. Mine has no DC. This was not part of the original plan. -- nm - psilotum Mar 1, 20:57 1
    - It's technically a separate, one-year plan. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:58
- So did the protectorates, IIRC. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:38 16
  - ooh, are they out? I just got my first DC quarter. I haven't updated my quarter map in over 2 years. -- nm - psilotum Mar 1, 20:43 15
    - April, July, and October, I believe. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:45 14
      - oh, since there are 6 this year, it's every two months. PR should be out now. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:48
      - (And starting next year... National Parks!) -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:46 12
        
        State Parks, City Parks, City Pools, Neighborhood Rec Centers... - psilotum Mar 1, 20:56 11
        
        Housing Projects, highways, bridges -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 20:57 7
        
        Rails to Trails -- nm - psilotum Mar 1, 21:03
        
        Will President Palin be on the 2024 Bridge to Nowhere quarter? -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 20:59 5
        
        no way current 2024 President RC will let that happen - peglegpete Mar 1, 21:03 1
        
        Ha! at IM -- nm - psilotum Mar 1, 21:05
        
        it won't be "to nowhere" in 2012. It will be to the 62nd state, Palinistan -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 21:00 1
        
        erm, 2024. My bad. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 21:10
        
        *huddles in the corner gibbering in terror* -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 21:00
        
        The parks will take 11 years alone. - nubby Mar 1, 20:57 2
        
        I am so out of the numismatic goings-on. - psilotum Mar 1, 21:02
        
        that would be cool -- nm - znufrii Mar 1, 20:58
I think Nannerpuss is my favorite inadvertant meme so far of 2009. -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 20:31
So Crash wanted to watch Celebrity Apprentice again--I'm loving Jesse James, Clint Black, and Herschel Walker. - Trish Mar 1, 20:25 5
- And Joan Rivers? what was the tossing of the wine/water glass? (not a spoiler since it was featured on the promos) -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 1, 20:30 1
  - Basically she's a wicked old harpie. - Trish Mar 1, 20:38
- Dee-Clay? Isn't he a musician? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 20:26 2
  - I think he says he's a comedian, but I haven't heard anything funny out of him. Tom Green is way funnier (he's on the team too) - Trish Mar 1, 20:30 1
    - tom green ... and donald trump ... in the same room? Oh dear. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 20:31
My child is a musical prodigy! Click for proof! - Subversive - VCP Mar 1, 20:24 4
- for a second I thought she was gonna do the Pete Townsend thing and smash the guitar -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 1, 20:46
- Hee, who needs the Jonas Bros? :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Mar 1, 20:31
- OMG, that is total cute overload. - Trish Mar 1, 20:28
- More proof. She also discovered the piano this week. - Subversive - VCP Mar 1, 20:27
"What a week." -- nm - David Mar 1, 20:15
Killzone 2? - Redmond Mar 1, 19:52 2
- maybe "Kazo 2" or "keezy 2" or "KZ2? NE1?" ... -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 19:53 1
  - Off the Keezy! -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 20:26

Between Guitar Hero, Ratchet & Clank, Killzone 2, and MLB 09 The Show I think I'm about set on games for at least 6 months. -- nm - Ender Mar 1, 19:20 6
- Yeah, World of Warcraft, Guitar Hero, and Killzone 2 are going to keep me busy for awhile. -- nm - Redmond Mar 1, 19:38
- Halo Wars and Resident Evil 5 make March wonderful. -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:22 3

    - Zombie, eh? -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:36

As of today, I'm now Facebook friends with every girl I've taken to prom. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 19:18 14

  - Zero of those. :) -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 19:22 4
    - I never went to prom. But I'm okay with that since I was pubically still seeing girls. -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 19:23 3
      - ahem. -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 1, 19:26 2
        
        Not a typo. -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 19:28 1
        
        even funnier then. ;-) -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 1, 19:51
- "Nubby has no friends" -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 1, 19:18
- high school, college and grad school? -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 19:18 3
  - my program's having prom this year. we're so lame. (I need a date, if anyone's interested.) -- nm - the ides of march love mandy lane Mar 1, 20:20
  - There are college proms? -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 19:22 1
    - if you have enough horse tranquilizer. -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 1, 19:51
Here comes the snow! Yay!!! - Krusty Mar 1, 19:16 6
- Size queen. Hehehe. Schools are closed here tomorrow. I expect I'll be mighty busy delivering pizzas tomorrow. -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 19:17 5
  - Hazard pay! -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 19:25 2
    - *opens envelope* What does Andie receive every two weeks from her job? -- nm - Carnac the Magnificent Mar 1, 19:29

  - Takes a lot to close schools here. I may get lucky have the day off tomorrow. - Krusty Mar 1, 19:21 1
    - Bread. Milk. Coca-Cola! They're claiming 4-6 inches fell here. It's melting even now, but I imagine unless the wind dries the streets... - Qale Mar 1, 19:24
interesting non-secret ingredient on Iron Chef tonight..black garlic. I had never heard of it before, and it is a fermented aged garlic, black in - peglegpete Mar 1, 19:13
"Bruce Pearl is 7-1 against the Florida Gators." - David Mar 1, 18:59
*throws a grenade, hits wall, bounces back to blow me up* -- nm - Redmond Mar 1, 18:55 4
- "pull the pin, drop the pin, throw the grenade..." -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Mar 1, 20:28
- MacGruber!! -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 19:15
- Crash? -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:02 1
  - More like a boom/splat. -- nm - nubby Mar 1, 19:05
Some people think it's funny... -- nm - Dano Mar 1, 18:41 1
- And some people don't. -- nm - TWuG Mar 1, 18:42
Yeah, Remlik, I don't think sales are ever an indicator of quality. The two can go hand-in-hand, but just because a book sells well doesn't mean it's - TWuG Mar 1, 18:41 17
- Well we agree to disagree, and that's cool. Those 3 events were quite good with Planet Hulk being the gold standard for Marvel these days. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 18:48 11
  - but not World War Hulk that was mediocre due to Romita's crap art on it. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 18:49 10
    - Aw, crap. I was thinking WWH, not Planet Hulk. I didn't read any PH, just some of the WWH stuff, which was abysmal. -- nm - TWuG Mar 1, 18:50 9
      - yeah WWH was not as good as it could have been. Planet Hulk on the other was Gladiator (like the movie) awesome. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 18:59 8
        
        The Gladiator reference isn't helping you. -- nm - TWuG Mar 1, 19:00 7
        
        Planet Hulk works because it's a fully imagined world with a storyline that makes the main character sympathetic and heroic. Spend the $20 for it. -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:02 5
        
        $40 for the baddass oversized HC. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 19:07 4
        
        (which is what I got for Kim as some sort of gift along the way) -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:09 3
        
        oh Watchmen btw.... - Remlik Mar 1, 19:17 2
        
        Okay. Out of curiosity, could you get two? Counselor Craigy wants a set, too. -- nm - David Mar 1, 19:18 1
        
        ugh. Let me see what I can do. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 19:26
        
        ah. Well it was excellent, it was grand and sweeping epic story from Greg Pak. -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 19:02
- House of M had a brilliant concept shoddingly executed. - celedhrymandias Mar 1, 18:46
- bite your tongue! Planet Hulk was awesome. -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 18:43 3
  - It was the Hulk, by its very definition it *couldn't* be awesome. Hulk is the antithesis of awesome. -- nm - TWuG Mar 1, 18:49 2
    - did you read it? -- nm - Remlik Mar 1, 18:50 1
      - See above, I was thinking WWH. Still the Hulk is very low on my list of characters with potential -- (link) - TWuG Mar 1, 18:51 [Backboard]
[an error occurred while processing this snow angel directive] -- nm - Qale Mar 1, 18:40
I am Groot! -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 18:38
