- it's too bad most of the ladies cannot get along. at a 6/5 ratio, they could have made their own alliance & gotten rid of all the men -- nm - peglegpete Apr 3, 10:59 8
  - It's funny that it hasn't even been uttered. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 3, 11:00
  - The chick alliance has only worked one time...and there is no Kim Spradlin on this season to orchestrate it. -- nm - Jim Apr 3, 10:59 6
    - Parv and co. did a pretty good job too though - Jovian Apr 3, 11:10 3
      - Eh...kinda, I guess. There were 4 of them at the end, but they weren't really a chick alliance. - Jim Apr 3, 11:13 2
        
        Though you can argue that Erik handing over the necklace shows how strong that alliance was - Roger More Apr 3, 11:16
        
        lol Erik - Jovian Apr 3, 11:16
    - Related, has an all-bro alliance ever worked? (I don't think so, unless you count alliances of 2 people or less) -- nm - Roger More Apr 3, 11:07 1

  - I don't have an android device to test with, but I found it worked better than the current design on iPhone (because it used nearly full width) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 3, 10:25

Was this NPR prank mentioned here? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 3, 10:16 2

Jax - I feel (1/2) your pain. These LAS flights have not dropped a penny in 2+ months. - Banzai! Apr 3, 10:09 12
- I was able to use some reward points in order to save about $150 on our flights. - Diva Apr 3, 10:43
- I jumped on a $340 fare for the short period that it was available. -- nm - ty97 Apr 3, 10:13 4
  - I flew direct BWI-LAS RT last year for $160 in August. I'm hoping that pops up again. -- nm - MDH Apr 3, 10:22
  - These airline consolidations are finally having their lasting intent. Good prices are few and far between anymore. - Banzai! Apr 3, 10:15 2
    - I was quoted over $650 SCE--> SEA recently. 97! remind me to AOR a rewards card and free ticket next time I go! -- nm - Vibia Kincardine Apr 3, 11:08 1
      - I thought about getting a new cc that gave me a free ticket, but I think I waited too long to be able to pull that off. {nm} - Banzai! Apr 3, 11:13
- I guess this means road trip! -- nm - con_carne Apr 3, 10:12
- Yeah, I'm checking daily. It's $500+ now. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 3, 10:10 4

    - Is STL on the way? ROAD TRIP! -- nm - spamlet Apr 3, 10:14 1

- Tom Berenger is going to have smack them -- nm - Beaker Apr 3, 10:07
mmm...mussels... -- nm - znufrii Apr 3, 10:01 5
- For me, they are one of those "a lot of work/waste for very little actual food" type foods -- nm - con_carne Apr 3, 10:09 1
  - Which makes them a great appetizer -- nm - con_carne Apr 3, 10:10
- no. -- nm - Beaker Apr 3, 10:07
- I absolutely love mussels but I'm wary of ordering them. A lot of places don't clean them accurately. -- nm - Diva Apr 3, 10:06
- Yup, but they are one of the nastiest looking foods. -- nm - Shaun Apr 3, 10:03

This is what the mile high club gets you in Canada. -- (link) - Mop (205 lbs) Apr 3, 09:55 2
- I wonder if it would have went away if the dude hadn't assaulted a cop? After that all bets are off -- nm - Beaker Apr 3, 10:06 1
  - I think it was the chick that assaulted the cops. -- nm - spamlet Apr 3, 10:13
heh. Internet Explorer Enterprise Mode, for companies that are afraid to upgrade. -- (link) - Beryllium Apr 3, 09:55
I assume this is already known, but sports talk radio host Daniel Murphy is a moron. -- (link) - Mop (205 lbs) Apr 3, 09:51 2

- the guy is fast as fuck, so it would not surprise me for him to put a .300 season up at some point. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 3, 09:45 2
  - Last year, I thought he was going to be great in Toronto. Then, he almost played his way out of baseball. - David Apr 3, 09:50 1
    - a full season for him would be a lock for 50 steals. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 3, 09:51

  - I honestly had never heard of the guy before I saw him in the opening day lineup. Goes to show how closely I've been following this year. - pmb Apr 3, 09:46

Harvard discovers three of its library books are bound in human flesh -- (link) - amoxy Apr 3, 09:34 20
- flesh....or skin? I mean I wear leather but not beef -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 3, 11:07
- Yeah, we thought it was a lot more. -- nm - Mop (205 lbs) Apr 3, 09:48

  - bound in a thousand ST'ers discarded foreskin. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 3, 09:41 2
    - All the ST ladies want to meet the guy who got the front cover. -- nm - TWuG Apr 3, 09:49
    - damnit . . . I was hoping no one would notice that . . . -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Apr 3, 09:43
- ...and every one of their librarians is as well. -- nm - Ender Apr 3, 09:37
- ewwww -- nm - JenBro Apr 3, 09:37 12
  - That might be "ewwww" but not as "ewwww" as mussels. In any flavor. nm - Jim Apr 3, 09:37 11
    - just curious - is it the texture? because comments on B2 lead me to believe they don't have a strong flavor on their own - but take on whatever broth -- nm - JenBro Apr 3, 09:57 9
      - Yeah, that's pretty much true. They are typically steamed, so they're not going to have that flavor of a grilled or fried seafood -- nm - con_carne Apr 3, 10:18 1
        
        Although I have had them broiled, but in those cases they had some kind of crumb or cheese crust on them -- nm - con_carne Apr 3, 10:19
      - I don't think I've tried them. I shy away from seafood type dishes. - Pippy Apr 3, 10:03 1
        
        :) -- nm - JenBro Apr 3, 10:12
      - Mussels are eh. The do have a strong flavor and a weird, chewy texture. - TWuG Apr 3, 10:01 1
        
        gosh I LOVE Oysters though ... fresh and cooked both -- nm - JenBro Apr 3, 10:12
      - They do have their own flavour - especially if they are fresh. Also if they are saltwater, the shells will give off a flavour. - Roger More Apr 3, 09:59
      - Texture doesn't work for me and the flavor didn't either. And one of the appetizers I tried was at Emeril's flagship restaurant... - Jim Apr 3, 09:58 1
        
        cool ... this should be interesting tonight then ... it's been years since I had them and only twice I can remember - JenBro Apr 3, 10:11
