ST: Risk Factions review (link) - Jovian Jun 23, 18:47 1
- Sounds interesting. I'll grab it at some point, especially since you can play the classic game too. -- nm - Krusty Jun 23, 18:55
Things to make you feel old - the Simpsons episode "Lisa's Wedding" is set in 2010 -- nm - Roger More Jun 23, 18:46 4
- no. 2010 is the sequel to 2001 :) -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 19:13
- But she's still in 4th grade. (or something) -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:55 2

  - kids these days -- nm - Hotkiss Jun 23, 19:01
would we like to talk about shoes? -- (link) - miss amanda jones Jun 23, 18:45 7
- The manmade lining makes them unwearable. But the style's cute. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:53
- I say awesome. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:47 5
  - ok, smartypants. tell me how to wear. I love the idea of semi-skinny jeans and a black shirt - miss amanda jones Jun 23, 18:49 4
    - And they's work with a skirt but it'd have to be cowgirlish. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:53
    - no heels, can't be hookerish. I think low boots with skirts looks dumb, so we're in agreement. - loosilu Jun 23, 18:51 2
      - and it would have to be jeans, because black grey brown red no. right? I mean, they're twice a year shoes, right? not weekly shoes? -- nm - miss amanda jones Jun 23, 18:52 1
        
        I think gray would be fine, actually. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:55

Hee. The last meeting between Mahut and Isner went 7-5, 6-4. -- nm - Reagen Jun 23, 18:43
My screen name goes back to Yahoo IM. It was the first variation on my real name that wasn't already taken. I guess it goes back to the late 90s. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:37 4
- my screen name everywhere is "whatmary." it just happened and it is perfect and I love it. -- nm - miss amanda jones Jun 23, 18:54

    - Things don't look good for them. If Johnson goes to the Nets they're best option appears to be Favors - Krusty Jun 23, 18:45
    - Well, that one, sure. The NBA draft is fascinating, I think. -- nm - TFox Jun 23, 18:29 3
      - Draft day trades make it very interesting sometimes. I'm curious who goes second and third. - Krusty Jun 23, 18:41 2
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        The reports I get here are that the Nets are taking Johnson if Turner doesn't fall to them. - Krusty Jun 23, 18:47

Top CHef Spoiler question ... anyone else surprised that ... - JenBro Jun 23, 18:22 3
- very. first food I thought of -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 18:24 2
  - and - peglegpete Jun 23, 18:24 1
    - nevermind. someone just said the secret word, and a duck came down :) -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 18:25
Normally, I'd think a headline on ESPN starting with "Hawks trade" could be confusing. Which Hawks? - TFox Jun 23, 18:19 4
- He could possibly be the best Norwegian power forward to ever play the game -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 18:24 2
  - Minneapolis is nowhere near Norway. No matter what the natives tell you. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:27 1
    - um, but, ah, never mind *shakes head* -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 18:34

- spoiler - peglegpete Jun 23, 18:23
FWIW, the Braves beat writer who used to be the Marlins beat writer is saying Bobby Valentine will be their next manager. (nm) - David Jun 23, 17:59 4
- "Yeah, we've pretty much decided that we don't want to win." - nubby Jun 23, 18:09 3
  - Since he lives in Atlanta, I think it's a slam dunk he works for us in an advisory role the rest of the year. - David Jun 23, 18:12 2
    - I just read Bowman's blog. - nubby Jun 23, 18:42
    - all I know is his restaurant in Stamford, CT is pretty damn cool. good wings -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 18:13

  - Ha! He did this the other night when I yelled out "Mrs. Ceregon" :) -- nm - ceregon Jun 23, 18:19
  - Finally, he's got his own room. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:18 10
    - Nope, Bobby wants to be in whatever room I'm in. If I put him in there and made him stay he'd probably think he was being punished. -- nm - ceregon Jun 23, 18:20 9
      - But he can lie to other dogs and call it his. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:29 8
        
        He doesn't like other dogs that much. -- nm - ceregon Jun 23, 18:42 7
        
        that's why he keeps boasting to them. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:45
        
        I bet he's one of those dogs that doesn't think he's a dog right? -- nm - JenBro Jun 23, 18:44 5
        
        No he definitely thinks he's a dog, he just thinks other dogs should behave as well as he does, and when they don't he gets mad -- nm - ceregon Jun 23, 19:00 4
        
        ohhhhh ... so he's surrounded by dogs that act like Pixie? - JenBro Jun 23, 19:03 3
        
        good job. now come up with a line like that on the phone sometime -- nm - chuckles Jun 23, 19:06 2
        
        how is it you never miss a shiv - JenBro Jun 23, 19:08 1
        
        he lives to shiv. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 19:17
- I take this is a different roommate from the trainer guy? -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 17:55 1
  - Yep, just moved in two weeks ago, spent a week on break with his parents, came back and got the bad grade. - ceregon Jun 23, 18:18
- can you still just rent it out and not tell the dad? -- nm - chuckles Jun 23, 17:50 21
  - I probably could, but I don't really want a roommate who's there for 2-3 months. - ceregon Jun 23, 17:53 20

      - and why does the law hate the pot grower so much? It's weird to me - CQ Jun 23, 18:05 15
        
        grow ops destroy houses, FWIW. -- nm - Reagen Jun 23, 18:08 6
        
        they burn crazy electricity, too. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:32
        
        Sure, but if it was legal people would use warehouses instead of trying to hide the - Krusty Jun 23, 18:09 4
        
        outside would be fine. I have no problem with legalization. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:33 2
        
        So much money to be made by taxing it, billions. At the very least can we get it off the schedule 1 list and allow research to be done? - Krusty Jun 23, 18:51 1
        
        agreed to all points. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:52
        
        I didn't even know what a grow-op was, heh -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 18:12

        I drink alcohol and don't even think about doing anything "harder". - CQ Jun 23, 18:09 5
        
        I spoke pot and I have never been inclined to try hard drugs. I don't really drink either. - Krusty Jun 23, 18:11 3
        
        fwiw, I think pot is probably safer than alcohol. I don't like it myself (I get very anxious) but it seems fine for some people. -- nm - loosilu Jun 23, 18:34
        
        speaking pot is funny shit, man -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 18:12
        
        *smoke it too* -- nm - Krusty Jun 23, 18:12
        
        A lot of pot smokers never think about doing anything more. -- nm - the liioulu with raincoat Jun 23, 18:10

- AOL for me. amoxie was already taken so I went with this -- nm - amoxy Jun 23, 17:24 1
  - heh. I thought that you had just replaced the middle two characters of your first name with your last name ... -- nm - Beryllium Jun 23, 18:40
- early AOL for this one. the not-work version came from a frequent typo when logging into hsx and the creation of a new ytd port. -- nm - b. Jun 23, 16:58
- Mine goes back to CompuServe, when the internet was still gophers! -- nm - mara Jun 23, 16:56 7
  - I honestly can't remember when we first went online at home. I know it was AOL :) - MojaveMeg Jun 23, 17:00 6
