Primal Scream this morning... - amoxy Aug 19, 07:57 9

  - After thinking on it last night, I think this was planned since May. -- nm - Spawn Aug 19, 08:01 2
    - Are you kidding...this was planned since last year when the Packers wouldn't allow him to be traeded to the Vikings... - Remlik Aug 19, 08:07
    - I agree...He did not want to go to training camp, but if that is the case - amoxy Aug 19, 08:03
- mine manifested into one mutha of a headache. - Diva Aug 19, 08:00 1

  - that's on a good day. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:57
Question for the ST parents - the car seats that lock into the base - do you need one of those bases in order to secure the baby in the car? - kelly Aug 19, 07:50 13
- Okay, thanks all. (Crap.) - kelly Aug 19, 08:02 3
  - The base is easy to install. Just pull it out of their car when you get the kid and clip it in yours. - Subversive Aug 19, 08:04 2
    - Yeah, but it's just the hassle of his mom leaving it at daycare all day, then me picking it up, etc. What if she forgets to do it one day? etc. - kelly Aug 19, 08:08 1
      - 25 pounds I think. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 08:09
- You mean the clip in clip out ones? Yes, the base is essential. - Subversive Aug 19, 07:59
- The "base" secures with the lap part of the belt, and usually the "carrier" part is secured by the arm/shoulder part of the seat belt. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 19, 07:59 1
  - Actually most new cars have metal bars in the seat crack that car seats can clip into. - Subversive Aug 19, 08:01
- Yep...the base is buckled in and never leaves the car. You unhook the seat from the base to take baby out of the car. -- nm - Jim Aug 19, 07:58
- or duct tape. -- nm - Dano Aug 19, 07:57
- my parents have bases in their car for my sister's kids. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:56
- Yes -- nm - amoxy Aug 19, 07:55
- I believe the bases are necessary, though you can get seats that don't require the base. - TWuG Aug 19, 07:55

Well, the mortgage docs have finally been sent to the lawyers this morning. God, these banks stress me out. - Subversive Aug 19, 07:47

    - hah, idle for about 15 hours and attacked 14 times -- nm - GWAA Aug 19, 08:02
- only a guest, phew -- nm - GWAA Aug 19, 07:47 1
  - makes sense. why would he take a pay cut to join Idol? -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:57

LYC: This morning has been emotional song playlist day, how I love "Tears Dry on their Own" by Amy Winehouse -- nm - MDH Aug 19, 07:34 6
- Me too but nto the Amy song - I will check it out - I liked the one I got of hers a few weeks ago - Valerie. -- nm - Epiphany Aug 19, 07:34 5
  - Valerie is so good! That's on the list playlist too - MDH Aug 19, 07:37 4
    - if you like Green day at all - their sad/slow song is Last Night on Earth - I love it. - Kylie inside - Epiphany Aug 19, 07:41 3
      - But they always tour, so you have a lot of chances to come - MDH Aug 19, 07:47 2
        
        good point do I want to see Pitbull for a hand ful of songs? maybe not. - Epiphany Aug 19, 07:53 1
        
        I've seen Pitbull before - MDH Aug 19, 07:59

- So the Vampirates will get to draft sometime in October? -- nm - BB Aug 19, 07:56

    - its like I felt in the last LOTR movie - *spoilers* - Epiphany Aug 19, 07:38
- " Vampirates after Cavemen have finished" They never finish. They just keep drafting and drafting and drafting and drafting and drafting -- nm - Redmond Aug 19, 07:32
- START THE DRAFT!!!!!!!!! -- nm - Jim Aug 19, 07:31
- The order of drafting is a bit odd imo. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 19, 07:31 1
  - Us teams that really sucked last year get a little break -- nm - amoxy Aug 19, 07:57
I just ordered a recycling bin from local waste management (no, we haven't been recycling) - I was offered one of the 30-something gallon bins on - kelly Aug 19, 07:14 41
- we have a big one, (70g?) and we fill it in 2 weeks easy, but mom drinks a couple 2ltr soda jugs a week, newspaper, cardboard, junkmail -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 19, 09:08
- I'd go with one large over 2 small. Especially if you get a daily paper or generate a lot of empty aluminum cans. -- nm - TWuG Aug 19, 07:58
- Get the big one, the small one won't be enough if it's every two weeks. - Cuzzin Todd Aug 19, 07:57
- I can fill two of the smaller blue boxes every two weeks but have only one garbage bag in that time frame (and we dont have green waste in my area) - Walt_Disney Aug 19, 07:42
- For 2 weeks? I'd get the big one on wheels. -- nm - Jim Aug 19, 07:29 2
  - Heh, I got the big one -- nm - The Todd Aug 19, 07:58
  - yep. -- nm - Remlik Aug 19, 07:32
- How many bags of garbage do you fill a week? Once you start recycling you'll realize a *huge* portion of that is recyclable. -- nm - Andie Aug 19, 07:22 5
  - 3 to 4, and yeah, I'd think a lot of it can be recycled, now that I look at the list... -- nm - kelly Aug 19, 07:23 4
    - here we only have garbage pick up every two weeks to force people to recycle. *MOST* of it can be. -- nm - Andie Aug 19, 07:24 3
      - We had trash pickup twice a week, but they're now cutting back to once a week because the recycling had been such a success. - kelly Aug 19, 07:26
      - I knew this :) However, our condo recycling pickup apparently does their own sorting, separate from blue box, and their sign doesn't ban pizza boxes -- nm - Beryllium Aug 19, 07:25 1
        
        this should go below pizza boxes from loosi. Grr. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 19, 07:26
- Will can just eat the overflow. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 19, 07:21 12
  - why are you recycling that banana peel?! That pizza box has some sauce on it!! -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:22 11
    - did you know you can't recycle pizza boxes? -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:23 10
      - depends on your city. we can. -- nm - Andie Aug 19, 07:26 9
        
        we can't. Maybe it's because it's hot and humid here. They want to minimize food in the recycling. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:26 8
        
        I think generally it's not really the food remnants that's the problem, it's the oil that's soaked into the box. -- nm - Ender Aug 19, 07:34
        
        ours say 'pizza boxes must be empty'. -- nm - Andie Aug 19, 07:29 6
        
        with our pizzas, at least, the box is usually soaked with grease. :) -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:30 5
        
        (which attracts rodents and bugs) -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:31
        
        Your american pizza sounds disgusting! - Beryllium Aug 19, 07:30 3
        
        yeah, all the ones I've seen. Just googled. here is why grease is bad for recycling. -- (link) - loosilu Aug 19, 07:33
        
        of course they are. -- nm - Andie Aug 19, 07:32 1
        
        heheh, it's been a while since I had pizza ... - Beryllium Aug 19, 07:34
- is this for plastics, tin cans and such or for "green waste" like banana peels and such -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:16 7
  - Paper, cans, boxes, etc. Not "green waste". -- nm - kelly Aug 19, 07:17 6
    - once you get going you will be amazed how much paper you throw away every day -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:19 4
      - we recycle separately here (paper cardboard one week, cans and plastics the next), at least 1 large blue bag each every two weeks -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:20
      - This is one reason I do not get newspapers. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:20 2
        
        us either :) But with boxes for packaging, flyers, catalogues, junk mail, etc etc it adds up fast -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:21 1
        
        advertising circulars are the bulk of my recycling. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:22
    - I think it really depends on your household habits. Maybe you could put that stuff in bags for a week and see how much you generate. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:18
- depends how much you drink from bottles/cans, I think. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:16 6
  - (personally I fill one of those 30L bins in two weeks) -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:16 5
    - oh, you're working in gallons. OK, I think our tubs are 18 gallons. I fill one of those in two weeks (with just bottles and cans). Paper is another - loosilu Aug 19, 07:19 4
      - This is all going in one tub - it can all be mixed together - I just called and had it switched to the 35-gallon wheeled bin. -- nm - kelly Aug 19, 07:23 3
        
        sounds like a good plan. better to have leftover space in it than not enough. -- nm - loosilu Aug 19, 07:24
        
        wheeled makes it alot easier too. -- nm - Beaker Aug 19, 07:24 1
        
        Being on an end unit makes it even better!! - kelly Aug 19, 07:27

- That may be, but it will in no way help the image most people have of Democrats and healthcare. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:11 28
  - compared to the teabagging Republican crazies at these town halls, the Dems are golden -- nm - farmer ted Aug 19, 07:53
  - I disagree. the kind of misinformation that's being spread out there needs to be hit head on. - znufrii Aug 19, 07:14 25
    - Then hit it with hard facts, not matching someone's frothing at the mouth. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:17 24
      - It's the political equivalent of calling "elves". - znufrii Aug 19, 07:21 2
        
        See my post to Jack. No matter what you say, it won't matter to the crazies of either side. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:25 1
        
        people aren't looking to be convinced it's a reasonable, thought-out option. - znufrii Aug 19, 07:29
      - Whether he likes it or not, he works for her. Respect is due regardless. -- nm - Scorpion Aug 19, 07:19 3
        
        Worst. Boss. Ever. -- nm - znufrii Aug 19, 07:22 2
        
        I don't agree with what she said, it was completely baseless. However, that doesn't excuse his response. -- nm - Scorpion Aug 19, 07:25 1
        
        I think that *precisely* excuses his response. -- nm - znufrii Aug 19, 07:31
      - [deleted] 16
        
        No, just hit back with facts. The frother may not understand or care, but you're not doing it for them. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:23 15
        
        How do you respond with facts to someone calling Obama Hitler? And isn't Frank Jewish? - JaxSean Aug 19, 07:31 14
        
        Tear the accusation apart piece by piece. From the article, they called it a Nazi policy. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:42 12
        
        it's not worth the effort. he said something about comparing providing more americans with health care to the nazis. that's all the tearing apart it - mafic Aug 19, 07:59
        
        They were holding up pictures of Obama with a Hitler mustache. So, yeah, they were equating Obama with Hitler. -- nm - CovingtonCat Aug 19, 07:45
        
        I'd hardly call Frank's response "freaking out". I was a solid rhetorical put down of a question that didn't dignify a response. - znufrii Aug 19, 07:45 9
        
        So, strike down the question using the public speaking ability he should have. - Inigo Aug 19, 07:53 8
        
        so in other words, do precisely what he did? - znufrii Aug 19, 07:55 7
        
        and... - znufrii Aug 19, 07:59 3
        
        "On what planet do you spend most of your time?" - Inigo Aug 19, 08:00 2
        
        for Barney Frank, that's downright tame. -- nm - znufrii Aug 19, 08:02 1
        
        (and did you watch the clip, or are you just going by the article?) -- nm - znufrii Aug 19, 08:07
        
        Having a "D" after his name. - BB Aug 19, 07:59 2
        
        I vote democrat. I voted for Obama. So no. -- nm - Inigo Aug 19, 08:01
        
        :P - znufrii Aug 19, 08:00
        
        The world is flat. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 19, 07:33
