TFox, when does the second round of voting start? I'm very curious about the outcome of the 1st round. -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 07:01 1

"[Friend] is doing what all the cool expecting mothers do now days and announcing she is pregnant via her facebook status." -- nm - nubby Mar 12, 06:37 8

  - my mom, last week, "You have a new nephew" - znufrii Mar 12, 06:55
  - My cousin's sister accidentally spilled the beans for her on Facebook. - Callisto Mar 12, 06:48
  - I don't think it's that odd. I'm sure the parents got a phone call or were told in person. -- nm - mara Mar 12, 06:44 1
    - I was going to say, it's probably fair to assume that they told the people in person that you'd normally tell. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 06:47
  - no odder than any other announcement, is it? -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 06:41 2
    - I guess, but I think I'd tell the people I'd want to and let the others find out in time. I don't know *shrugs* -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 06:47 1
      - she could have told a lot of people in person first. -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 06:56
But *I* want blueberry kit Kat. What about my needs?? -- nm - mobile browsing loves mandy lane Mar 12, 06:26 5

  - ACK! :) - nubby Mar 12, 06:22
- Bah, I effed up. Never mind. -- nm - nubby Mar 12, 06:13 1

Let's play early morning "Grade a FBB Team"! Results of my public roto draft inside. - TFox Mar 12, 06:04 18
- [deleted] 9
  - This year? I've got 5. Two for money, two with you fine folks, and I'm playing a public for sport this year too. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 06:40 8
    - [deleted] 7
      - I do the same thing, I love the drafting. Managing multiple teams isn't that difficult. - Krusty Mar 12, 06:49 3
        
        I'm actually glad I have a couple snake drafts this year. Both my money leagues are auctions, which I love... - TFox Mar 12, 06:56 2
        
        I've never done an auction draft, maybe another year. I'd love to have a draft where everyone's in the same room getting drunk and yelling out picks. -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 06:59 1
        
        There is truly nothing better. We have a drunk one, and my other league is a 10am coffee-and-laptops draft where everyone is sober as a bird. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 07:00
      - It depends. Once you know the players, you can apply the decisions to all 5 leagues. - TFox Mar 12, 06:49 2

      - I actually drafted Fausto as a #5, and then found out the next morning that Price might be at Triple A. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 06:40
- Starting pitching is suspect.. - Gwaahjo Mar 12, 06:07
- Not terrible, I wouldn't count on Dunn doing all that fantastic in DC. He should lead the league in walks. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 06:06 1
  - In which case Pena can slide in at 1B and let Thome or Upton have the UT spot. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 06:07

I guess it's been a while since I've seen it, but I never realized Tim Robbins was in Howard the Duck. -- (link) - Don Homer Mar 12, 05:34
Heh, they just mentioned my 10-yr service award at our all-hands meeting. First thing I heard, "Holy crap, he's young for that." - Will Hunting Mar 12, 05:16 17
- Did you get anything useful, or just a pin or certificate or something like that. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 12, 05:18 16

      - yeah, he'd look goo dwith a pair of diamond studs. -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 05:37 2
        
        Stop licking your lips when you say that. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 05:43 1
        
        great, now I'm going to imagine all of znufrii's posts in the sound of Karl Childer's voice. - JaxSean Mar 12, 06:04
      - There's no good way to answer this. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 05:26 9
        
        Sure there is...observe.... - Jim Mar 12, 06:10 6
        
        I like my way better. "When I'm with you ten years, I'll get you a gift of cheap earrings. Till then, this gift is mine toots." - Will Hunting Mar 12, 06:12 5
        
        *eyeroll* -- nm - kelly Mar 12, 06:17 2
        
        Re: your IM. You really make it hard to goof on him when you post crap like that. - Jim Mar 12, 06:19 1

      - How far do you need to get to be able to get hideouts? -- nm - kelly Mar 12, 05:56 1
        
        You need the 3rd skill in the Military tree and a few other requirements. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 06:05
      - I need to get to the Hideouts-option, but I set up a wall already. - Will Hunting Mar 12, 05:32 2
