The Complete list of food spending by city: And the ones we missed #1 Austin, #7 Irvine, #8 Nashville, #9 Scottsdale -- (link) - MDH May 26, 07:09 4
- At first glance, they all seem like places with a high % of young, university-educated, well-paid people who weren't born in that city -- nm - Roger More May 26, 07:26 1
  - stop bringing your work to ST -- nm - zork May 26, 07:30
- I expect there is some correlation to household size in addition to the regional cost of living -- nm - zork May 26, 07:26
- That is a fantastic graphic. Very well done. -- nm - psilotum May 26, 07:23
So apparently the Jake shirtlessness in Prince of Persia is very little more than what we've already seen. FAIL. -- nm - Dano May 26, 07:07 3
- And Gemma Arterton is way more clothed compared to The Disappearance of Alice Creed. -- nm - LMS May 26, 07:15
- Who cares about stupid shit like that? Any shirtless Gemma? -- nm - Redmond, Gemma fan! May 26, 07:15
- Booo! -- nm - nubby May 26, 07:11

How a NJ Turnpike reststop spoiled The Pacific for me. (Uh, spoils) - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:06 4
- You shouldn't have been tapping your foot like that. -- nm - Dano May 26, 07:08
- was it the Remlik rest stop? (there is one with the same last name as him) -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:07 2
  - there is a lot in Jersey after Joyce. -- nm - Remlik May 26, 07:33
  - Crazy that I think I know it was the Vince Lombardi but yeah I have seen the Joyce Remlik stop. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:16
That list of show endings yesterday did not get my seal of approval. No Twin Peaks, Angel, let alone Brit shows like The Office or Life on Mars. -- nm - LMS May 26, 07:04 25
- I mentioned Angel -- nm - Beaker May 26, 07:12
- I hated Life on Mars's ending. -- nm - nubby May 26, 07:08 1
  - UK version or US? Totally different endings. -- nm - LMS May 26, 07:13
- the TP ending sucked. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:05 21
  - Back then I didn't think it sucked because it made me hopeful that it would be tied up with a TV movie or - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:09 4
    - I *hated* the movie. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:10 3
      - It hurt me to not like the movie. A lot. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:12 2
        
        But it's got David Bowie, Keifer Sutherland and Chris Isaak. As a prequel it holds up pretty well now. - LMS May 26, 07:33 1
        
        yeah it's ok, but it wasn't what we, as viewers, wanted at the time. -- nm - Remlik May 26, 07:34
  - No way, Jose. One of the very best. -- nm - Don Homer May 26, 07:05 15
    - everything after the reveal of who killed Laura was crap, IMO. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:08 14
      - yup -- nm - Beaker May 26, 07:12
      - I thought the Windom Earle chess game was great until... - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:11 1
        
        the entire post-Bob story arc was random bullshit. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:12
      - Many of the episodes in season 2 were rather mediocre, yes. But the last one is still great. With a tremendous closing scene. -- nm - Don Homer May 26, 07:09 10
        
        I ... don't remember the closing scene. spoil? it's been too long. - loosilu May 26, 07:17 8
        
        And the first of two scenes prior to the closing scene... -- (link) - Don Homer May 26, 07:23 [youtube]

        Bob was the creepiest dude I ever saw on TV, to this day. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:24 3
        
        I love his backstory (he was a set dresser and Lynch decided he looked creepy so he just found a part for him). nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:28 2
        
        supposedly his first appearance was an accident - Don Homer May 26, 07:31
        
        yep. and he died not long after the series ended. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:30
        
        linkage... -- (link) - Don Homer May 26, 07:21 [youtube] 1
        
        oooooh yeah. That was a great scene. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:23
        
        I concur. -- nm - LMS May 26, 07:15

      - actually ... - zork May 26, 07:16 3
        
        I am down to 1-2 glasses of wine on a date. Since I am not dating I haven't had a glass of wine in close to a month. - Redmond, Gemma fan! May 26, 07:18 2
        
        I never started. It just never held any appeal for me. Now chocolate on the other hand... -- nm - Fuzzy May 26, 07:22 1
        
        damn, too bad Bery is already married -- nm - zork May 26, 07:23
- The Whateverworks. -- nm - JaxSean May 26, 07:03
Who knew that Airplane! was spoofing a specific movie called Zero Hour? I didn't. Fun look at the two here -- (link) - TWuG May 26, 06:53 [youtube] 4
- What about the Airport movies? There are tons of specific references. - psilotum May 26, 06:56 3
  - This is in addition. There are scene for scene cribs from Zero Hour in Airplane! - TWuG May 26, 07:00
  - I'd say it's really spoofing the airport/disaster movies, but it's officially based on, and uses large portions of the script from, Zero Hour. - Ender May 26, 06:59 1
    - Interesting. -- nm - psilotum May 26, 07:09
Strongbad; good luck.....I hope you get at least some great stories out of the table experience. - Will Hunting May 26, 06:53 3
- yeah-tell Negreanu that he's a tool! -- nm - prayformojo May 26, 06:57
- One of my workers is playing in one of the WSOP tournaments next week at the Rio. He's going for a week. - Don Homer May 26, 06:54
- heh to the IM - good luck Strongbad -- nm - Epiphany May 26, 06:53
For the Toronto area STers... - Andie May 26, 06:50 5
- Done -- nm - Walt_Disney May 26, 07:19
- Is that anywhere near the Hamilton Air Museum? My brother rides in antique aircraft down there. -- nm - MojaveMeg May 26, 07:07 2
  - Rockton (where the African Lion Safari is) so halfway to Cambridge. The Warplane Heritage Museum is south toward Caledonia -- nm - zork May 26, 07:13 1
    - Ah. Seems like Rod goes down there when he needs a mental health day. -- nm - MojaveMeg May 26, 07:28
- thanks. -- nm - zork May 26, 06:58
LMS, that was a fun game! -- nm - zork May 26, 06:49 1
- Certainly was. Did think up another game the other day - 6 degrees of Twitter. - LMS May 26, 07:01
San Francisco. Asheville NC. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 06:46 40
- Chicago, San Diego, Baltimore, Atlanta -- nm - Fuzzy May 26, 06:57 2
  - None -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:58 1
    - it's long past time to spoil it, bub. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:09
- The #2 City is in our area. -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:53 17
  - Alexandria? -- nm - loosilu May 26, 06:55 15
    - The other one. -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:56 14
      - Arlington, seriously? that's where I live and stuff! - loosilu May 26, 06:57 13
        
        Maybe it has more to do with the frequency that people go out to eat/drink etc, not necessarily where they are eating. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 26, 07:00 1
        
        it doesn't seem different from anywhere else. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:02
        
        Have I asked you if you ever go to the Curious Grape? nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:00 7
        
        no, and yes. It's just two blocks away. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:02 6
        
        Heh. My sister works there. nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:03 5
        
        get out. does she do wine or cheese? -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:05 4
        
        Mostly wine. She works Friday evenings. nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:09 3
        
        cool! I'll be subtle. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:11 2
        
        I think the Redhead is coming on to me... -- nm - Wiggie's Sister to Coworker May 26, 07:12 1
        
        "And who is this 'rafe' she keeps asking me about?" nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:19
        
        Arlington #2 -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:57 2
        
        I actually stopped myself from typing that for some unknown reason -- nm - zork May 26, 06:59
        
        I really want to know how they got their numbers. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 06:58
  - some place near DC full of government hacks was my next answer, but I don't know near-DC geography. -- nm - mafic May 26, 06:54
- oakland, charlotte. -- nm - mafic May 26, 06:50 1
  - Nope, Nope (NC is done) -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:50
- #10, Nope (on the right track though) -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:47 16
  - Winston-Salem. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 06:48
  - Raleigh Durham -- nm - zork May 26, 06:48 14
    - A great apple-tini is priceless! -- nm - HdnAgnda May 26, 06:52
    - #4, #5 (Mafic I saw you had these too), and Mafic also got #3 San Jose -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:48 11
      - I'm fairly surprised that san jose is higher than san francisco. -- nm - mafic May 26, 06:52
      - CA still has another city in the top 10. Missing # 1,2,7,8,9 -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:50 9
        
        Sacr. -- nm - zork May 26, 06:53 8
        
        Nope -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:54 7
        
        San Diego? nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 06:56 6
        
        Nope -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:57 5
        
        Carmel? Santa Barbara? Oakland? nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 06:59 4
        
        Nope -- nm - MDH May 26, 06:59 3
        
        Palo Alto? Palm Springs? nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:01
        
        Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, Santa Cruz, San Mateo -- nm - zork May 26, 07:01 1
        
        None for both of you. -- nm - MDH May 26, 07:06
    - quit stealing my answers! (you too, loosi!). -- nm - mafic May 26, 06:48
Additional info: In her last manic episode, D announced they were moving to (Asia? can't remember) and sold or gave away most of their belongings. - loosilu May 26, 06:46 24
- I totally misunderstood the FB post. - Fuzzy May 26, 07:00 23
  - I read it as she was looking to hook up with 2 guys. - Jim May 26, 07:01 22
    - she was telling people they could meet two guys. she was not inviting two guys. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:07
    - was missing for 5 hours and has done that before? For someone with her issues I would assume she's done something at some point -- nm - zork May 26, 07:02 20
      - five hours? you could really go out the door in a suburban area and find someone to have sex with in that amount of time? - loosilu May 26, 07:04 19
        
        women can get laid in 5 minutes if they half try. -- nm - zork May 26, 07:08 2
        
        it is easy, to be sure, but it takes a little longer t han that. - loosilu May 26, 07:19 1
        
        to some but others don't care as long as they get their d!ck wet (in their vernacular). - zork May 26, 07:22
        
        With a manic episode, she's more likely to pick up a dude and then bore him to death talking about this great idea she had for a homemade rocket ship. - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:08 1
        
        exactly. She apparently was saying that her company was going to win the Nobel Peace Prize. - loosilu May 26, 07:10
        
        whether or not she got it done (but like, easily, easily enough time), that's clearly the intent of the post. - TFox May 26, 07:07 9
        
        that is not at all what it says, but again, it's just crazy talk. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:12 8
        
        For the record, I think that's how most people would read it, but probably not at all what she was talking about. nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:14 5
        
        this is my interpretatoin, but I only know her and stuff. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:16 4
        
        That's cool. I think we were just trying to point out how it could be misunderstood. -- nm - Fuzzy May 26, 07:19 1
        
        I see now. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:31
        
        Yes, but to an objective observer (such as the ST reader), it sounds like a drunken pickup. nm - ralph wiggum May 26, 07:19 1
        
        ok, fair enough. -- nm - loosilu May 26, 07:19
        
        ok. (it is what it says. but ok.) -- nm - TFox May 26, 07:14 1
        
        I admire your strategy here -- nm - zork May 26, 07:15
        
        I had the same interpretation. Who knew where she was? -- nm - Roger More May 26, 07:06 3
        
        when she was posting on FB, she was in the office, which happens to be at my friend's house. (my friend is her boss) - loosilu May 26, 07:14 2
        
        Sure - but none of this was clear from your first post -- nm - Roger More May 26, 07:25 1
        
        (wiggum says what I was thinking above) -- nm - Roger More May 26, 07:27
Word? -- nm - Jim May 26, 06:44 1
- Lost? -- nm - mara May 26, 07:00
