Okay, dating advice. - celedhrymandias Nov 8, 08:46 4
- Ask her. -- nm - Loyola Nov 8, 09:02 1
  - I should do that... one of the things I like the most is that she seems very open on things. -- nm - celedhrymandias Nov 8, 09:05
- "previous boyfriends" to me would indicate that she considers you her current boyfriend and that you don't suck...so I say good. -- nm - Beaker Nov 8, 08:50 1
  - Well, she didn't use the "previous boyfriends" word. - celedhrymandias Nov 8, 08:53

Huh, weird. My computer can't find comingsoon.net -- nm - Beryllium Nov 8, 07:50 4
- Eh, no big loss. --nm - ToddManning Nov 8, 07:59
- Just type "ComingSoon.net" in your browser and it's there... -- nm - secretslacker Nov 8, 07:54 2

Gene Washington is out of his mind. Fined Justin Tuck $7500 for a hit on Bollinger that the announcers were incredulous was called a penalty - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:48 10
- Even Aikman thought the flag was a joke. -- nm - Shaun Nov 8, 08:04 1

  - There's a big difference between the Tuck hit and the Jared Allen multiple knee dives in the same game - Stewie Nov 8, 08:29
  - And neither of those was a dirty hit. If you want what the NFL is selling on the QB's put em in red jerseys and give em a flag. - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:58
- If he had picked him up and slammed him into the ground I could see the fine but that was a normal hit on the QB. -- nm - krusty Nov 8, 07:55 1
  - Exactly. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:58
- [deleted] 2
  - If they were in doubt about that hit; they really need to get new competent refs. - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:51 1
    - I was fuming yesterday after I heard about the fine. - krusty Nov 8, 07:54

Oh, I saw MILK yesterday... Penn is great and overall, it was pretty good. - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:53 10

I went over to the beta site for squirts and giggles. It still busts my browser when I try to load my port . - Diva Nov 8, 06:20 20
- I can't even find where my port is anymore in beta... they've changed a bunch of stuff -- nm - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:27 11
  - Ah, gotta log in... apparently, I'm up $4 million probably from adjusts/delists -- nm - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:28 10
    - my beta port is about $20 million lower than the old version. -- nm - mafic Nov 8, 06:32 3

        I've played a little in Classic since they brought it back but nothing more than playing a few openers. My bonds are a shambles - Diva Nov 8, 06:39
    - Your port's value in beta doesn't really count, does it? -- nm - mara Nov 8, 06:30 5

        Not sure, but I think it was one of the problems with the new system - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:37

        yeah. I'd sell mine for $2,000 at this point. -- nm - mafic Nov 8, 06:34
- agreed. -- nm - Beaker Nov 8, 06:26
- I haven't figured out if they even see that as a problem, either. (My main problem with beta, although admittedly I wasn't really trying to use it - mara Nov 8, 06:26 6
  - I know. Everything points to HSX not giving a crap whether they lose me or not so, what would be the reason. - Diva Nov 8, 06:34 5
    - I really don't think that's the case at all. - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:36 4

        I've said it before and I'll say it again... - secretslacker Nov 8, 06:46
        
        Sure, I'll try it too. But if I can't get around without it being a PITA, I'm out. -- nm - Diva Nov 8, 06:44
      - I disagree. -- nm - Diva Nov 8, 06:37
