Finally got my Ika account back....now I need to mend bridges with the town I share the island with - J Apr 20, 12:46 5
- Someone actually hacked your ika account? -- nm - Stephen Apr 20, 12:49 4
  - yep...my password is much stronger now -- nm - J Apr 20, 12:56 2
    - I told you "J" was too easy. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:58 1
      - well i like to find things out the hard way -- nm - J Apr 20, 13:02
  - The Nut. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:49
in the enemies backyard. OSU sucks. Why would anyone go to Corvalius unless ordered to do so by a boss? -- nm - Redmond on a phone Apr 20, 12:45 7
- My research student is going there for grad school. -- nm - nubby Apr 20, 12:48 1
  - Moving up! -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:48
- Tell me where you are so I can kick you in the nuts. Then buy you lunch at Clodfelters and make RC jealous. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:47 4
  - 21st and Monroe but headed out of the area. Just had to drop something off. Tons of mega hotties though!!! -- nm - Redmond on a phone Apr 20, 12:55 3
    - My foot will find your nuts next time. But at least now you know why the guys come here. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:55 2
      - Oregon's campus has just as many hotties trust me -- nm - Redmond on a phone Apr 20, 12:57 1
        
        Haha this place is hotty heaven right now. lunch rush. i guess i should get going but the eye candy is nice -- nm - Redmond on a phone Apr 20, 13:01
at this point, has Carrie Underwood had a better post-Idol career than Kelly Clarkson? - prayformojo Apr 20, 12:42 42
- i wouldn't argue with Kelly's career thusfar ... - i'm not dead yet ! Apr 20, 12:58
- also Carrie has won a gazillion awards -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:51 11
  - Plus she had her own Christmas special with retro-styling variety show elements. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:53 1
    - Plus she is 10x hotter -- nm - Jovian Apr 20, 12:56
  - yeah, but most of them are country music awards, which isnt hard. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:51 8
    - Yeah, even Toby Keith wins country awards. nm - Dignan Apr 20, 12:54
    - Sure they are; country voters are often far more entrenched in their support of established acts. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:53 5
      - which she now has become -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:54
      - I disagree with this. Every year or two they pick a new artist and they win everything. i.e. Taylor Swift, Lady Antebellum -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:53 3
        
        Lady A and Taylor Swift had monster years, to deny them would be absurd. Before them this year; Chesney won like 6 entertainers in a row - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:55 2
        
        B&D kept winning because their was little competition for so long in the duo category -- nm - ty97 Apr 20, 12:59
        
        Haha point taken. 10 years in a row is just stupid. Pick someone else already! -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:58
    - *looks behind truman at his mantle, raises eyebrow* -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:52
- They seem to be on similar career-trajectories now, sales-wise. (Kelly needs to pull a Kylie/Madonna/Cher and put out a dance album) -- nm - ty97 Apr 20, 12:50 6
  - I have heard that Kelly wants to be done. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:52 2
    - by you? -- nm - the narcissist Apr 20, 12:55 1
      - She is like a female Meat Loaf now, so no thanks. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:58
  - I wouldn't mind seeing Kelly do that. Although, her last album was really solid IMO. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:51 2
    - Her current sound is just played out (there were/are imitators as well, which doesn't help). - ty97 Apr 20, 12:53 1
      - Agree completely. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:54
- Successful? Yes. - nubby Apr 20, 12:46 7

      - You like it? - Spawn Apr 20, 12:49 1
        
        I'd like ... - zork Apr 20, 12:53
  - word -- nm - TFox Apr 20, 12:47
- Easily. Underwood, Clarkson, Daughtry....all the rest. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 12:45
- Jordin Sparks isn't even in the Top 5. Her 2nd album was DOA. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:45 2
  - Jennifer Hudson is way ahead of her and probably even Fantasia -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:52 1
    - Or you could always click the link below and see. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:53
- 1,000% -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:45
- If you base it on album sales, definitely -- (link) - ty97 Apr 20, 12:44 5
  - Album sales Underwood has the edge although I give the touring edge to Kelly. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:45 3
    - I don't know. They were practically giving away tickets here when she came through in the fall at a theater sized venue (not arena). - pmb Apr 20, 12:54 2
      - For Kelly Clarkson. -- nm - pmb Apr 20, 12:55 1
        
        Her last tour wasn't big, but her summer tours a few years ago were massive. - MDH Apr 20, 12:59
  - thank you, that's very helpful -- nm - prayformojo Apr 20, 12:45
- I would say yes. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:43
- I'd rank em, Underwood -- Clarkson -- Daughtry -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:43
- (considering only the winners) -- nm - prayformojo Apr 20, 12:43

  - that movie took two hours of my life that i will never get back. -- nm - Buzz Apr 20, 12:42
- anyone else want to negotiate? -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 12:40 1
  - mool-tee-pass! -- nm - Buzz Apr 20, 12:41
So I'd be the bait!? Dammit! I could handle that with my sweet phasewalk. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:30 19
- well, i was bait, and it sucked. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:31 18
  - Maybe I can find a better gun on my way up to 61. Although the lvl 22 Hellfire was absolutely destroying zombies last night. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:32 17
    - I started Knoxx as a Lvl 38...it was tough solo. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:36 3
      - I started it at 51 and got my ass handed to me by the Lance guys. Even though they were 51 as well, there were 3-4 of them. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:39 2
        
        yeah, that got easier around level 58 or so. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:39
        
        I was proud, I didn't die once in gunfight combat. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:39
    - we should do the circle of duty for you and Tru from the beginning great way to gather weapons -- nm - Remlik Apr 20, 12:36 6
      - Which dlc is this? I have Dr. Ned and Knoxx. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:38 2
        
        knoxx, its one of the last missions you can get -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:38 1
        
        Ok cool. I'll try to power grind out a few levels (super easy) and get going on the Knoxx content. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:39
      - i havent started it yet, so if we could get j, shaun, you and me together, i bet it would be interesting. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:37 2
        
        I really wanted to last night but I knew it takes a while....I was on the second last step on my other playthrough -- nm - J Apr 20, 12:44 1
        
        k -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:45
    - i got a level 50something smg with 4x fire, but it isnt a hellfire - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:35 5
      - Nice. I want one of the pearlescent weapons from the Knoxx dlc. They be sexy. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:37 4
        
        some are really good, i have a handgun and a sniper - J Apr 20, 12:47 1
        
        I'd only be interested in the SMG for my Siren, but having the others would be sweet as well. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:48
        
        remlik has one, he also gave me a peralescent shield. - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:38 1
        
        Slick. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:40

Hee, Kenny Bania and Felicity Huffman on the X-Files. Love it -- nm - CQ Apr 20, 12:29
Volquez wasn't supposed to be off the DL till August anyway so it looks like he won't actually miss any games, just the pay. -- nm - Ender Apr 20, 12:28 10
- Yeah, that's unbelievable that he won't miss a minute of game action. - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:33 3
  - Exactly...what's to stop the next guy from telling the league to just fine him...cause that's all they've done here. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 12:36 2
    - The league just says, "If you sit on the DL for at least 2 months, okey-dokey." - musubi Apr 20, 12:41 1
      - I'd bet though that he's on the 60 day DL so they don't even lose a roster spot; they still get 40 slots. - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:44
- I knew the kid was dirty. I just knew it! [nm] - Mel Profit Apr 20, 12:30
- They're not going to tack on the suspension once he comes back from the DL? - musubi Apr 20, 12:29 4
  - Word seems to be that it starts 4/21. - Ender Apr 20, 12:32 3
    - I'd make it simple; they gotta appear in a game in between test and suspension start. - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:41 1
      - Like I mention in my response above, I don't think the league can do that unilaterally. (nm) - musubi Apr 20, 12:44
    - In a practical sense, sure, but it's sure to raise some eyebrows the way it's being done now. - musubi Apr 20, 12:39
lir, st advice post -- (link) - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:25 [Backboard] 30
- Go for it because of two things. - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:37 3
  - heh, umm, i have already completed step 1 - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:43 1
    - Then "I'm not ready to start dating" is a big fat fib! You're a big fat fibber! Plus, there's #2. - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:46
  - oh yes, don't waste the "first dates after a divorce when you are out of practice" on someone good. -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:42
- go to dinner and see what happens. who knows. if it works great if not, you got out of the house. -- nm - Remlik Apr 20, 12:28 2
  - yep, but if you *really* don't want to, you could always tell your friend that she reminds you of someone you had a bad experience with. -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:31 1

    - i didn't forget man - the narcissist Apr 20, 12:32 8
      - All my life decisions are based on movie cliches. Indeed, I'm turning off my targeting sensors right now. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:39
      - This is spot on. - Dr.Vermin Apr 20, 12:37 1
        
        so far, the only thing I regret - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:40
      - heh. that reminds me, I had a crazy email yesterday. i wonder if I deleted it. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:36 4
        
        :( why tease us? -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 12:40 2
        
        Why does he keep teasing her? He should just let her down easy. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:48
        
        i was just typing outloud, sorry. looking now. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:41
        
        still? Holy. -- nm - Reagen Apr 20, 12:37
- why bother if you aren't interested? tell your friend and everyone will understand. no issues -- nm - CQ Apr 20, 12:27
- "Sorry, I don't feel the spark." -- nm - Reagen Apr 20, 12:27 6
  - exactly. -- nm - decline Apr 20, 12:28 5
    - the spark is overrated - the narcissist Apr 20, 12:35 4
      - it's a polite way of saying "I don't want to bone you and don't think I ever will". -- nm - Reagen Apr 20, 12:36 3
        
        honestly? are you a dude? - the narcissist Apr 20, 12:44 1
