So my wife just got done having a meeting with LaRoi Glover. Cool! nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:33 2

I like JenBro's shoe -- nm - con_carne Aug 31, 09:28 1
- me too. I'd wear those. -- nm - Diva Aug 31, 09:35
I'm SO glad the Cardinals had the players only meeting and shaved their heads to show they're unified and a "team." nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:25 2
- So are those 2 players going to be punished now? -- nm - Todd Manning Aug 31, 09:29 1
  - They should have to wear wigs tonight for not unifying. nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:31
Stewie, Stewie, Amoxy, nudie -- nm - amoxy Aug 31, 09:21
Who added Ochocinco to my team? DH drafted him. -- nm - Todd Manning Aug 31, 09:16 4
- Me. Sorry. I'll fix it. -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 31, 09:24 2
  - No problem. -- nm - Todd Manning Aug 31, 09:28 1
    - The Commissioner's Tools are not as user friendly as you might hope. - Kim Pine Aug 31, 09:29
- *shrugs* Not me. I don't have access to do that. -- nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:21
So, can we now agree that there is no such thing as "It's OK to go to Mexico, if you just stay in the touristy spots"? -- (link) - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:14 20
- no. -- nm - loosilu Aug 31, 09:28
- no....nm - xi Aug 31, 09:20

  - This premise of a "hotel zone" is garbage, anyway. 2006 says: Baghdad is fine, so long as you're in the "Green Zone". - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:30 8
    - *takes Chicken Little mantle away from nubby, present it to you* -- nm - Reagen Aug 31, 09:37
    - [deleted] 2
      - Dude, you're the one who said "hotel zone"! Are you sure you're a lawyer? -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:36 1
        
        [deleted]
    - Um, why do you care so much? -- nm - con_carne Aug 31, 09:33
    - that's like saying tourists should avoid Broadway, because someone else in NYC it's dangerous to walk the streets. -- nm - Andie Aug 31, 09:31 2
      - someone = somewhere -- nm - Andie Aug 31, 09:32 1
        
        If there were mass killings, bombings, and shootouts in regions of NYC, I'd avoid it too. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:35
  - read the linked story like i did, or just read my previous post -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 31, 09:21 2

      - ironic - Danedukenuuk Aug 31, 09:22
- A third of Mexican states have 5 murders per 100,000 people - a rate similar to the United States. The Yucatan's murder rate is lower than Canada's -- (link) - Roger More Aug 31, 09:19 1
  - year i wouldn't go either - Danedukenuuk Aug 31, 09:24
- It set off a fire which destroyed the bar, which is in a residential area not frequented by tourists -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 31, 09:17 2
  - ...who swallowed the spider to catch the fly. I don't know why she swallowed the fly. - TFox Aug 31, 09:19 1

Astros - 4.6, Vamps - 3.10, Cavemen - 2.10. *sigh* -- nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:08 4
- Ha. We're catching up. - Kim Pine Aug 31, 09:28
- It's funny cause it's *every* year. -- nm - Reagen Aug 31, 09:09 1
  - I know. You'd think that just once they'd get it together. :) -- nm - Jim Aug 31, 09:10
- We're rocket powered! -- nm - oblique Aug 31, 09:09
What's this "argument that disproves atheism" thing on Facebook? Looks kind of dodgy to me. -- nm - mara Aug 31, 09:08 16
- it's probably bullsh!t - znufrii Aug 31, 09:11 2
  - Sure, but I'm wondering if it's malicious. -- nm - mara Aug 31, 09:12 1
    - ah. -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 09:13
- I'm not sure what it is - I opted out of the process halfway through, but it still put I liked it in my news feed -- nm - Roger More Aug 31, 09:11 8
  - I opted out, too. You know, when you say you liked it, people assume it's worthwhile and not malware. -- nm - mara Aug 31, 09:13 6
    - He said "it" still did, not "i" still did -- nm - Beryllium Aug 31, 09:26 5
      - But it appeared in my news feed as "RM likes this" so others would assume that it has come with my seal of approval. -- nm - Roger More Aug 31, 09:28 3
        
        (and I deleted it from my news feed immediately - though I'm not sure if others would still see it) -- nm - Roger More Aug 31, 09:29
        
        I think you can report misbehaviour like that -- nm - Beryllium Aug 31, 09:29 1
        
        Yeah, I think I'll do that (when I get home and have FB access) -- nm - Roger More Aug 31, 09:31
      - Oh, duh. Sorry. -- nm - mara Aug 31, 09:28
  - ah. Lying for Jesus. -- nm - Reagen Aug 31, 09:12
- I'm going to suggest that the answer to one of the great philosophical questions of all time isn't going to be answered via social networking. -- nm - Reagen Aug 31, 09:10 3
  - This is very funny, but it's not like social networking *has* to be frivolous all the time -- nm - con_carne Aug 31, 09:35
  - two billion heads are better than one. -- nm - Max Aug 31, 09:24
  - I expect God to make his presence known by twitter. -- nm - pmb Aug 31, 09:23
Krusty, shay, Red x 2 -- nm - budice Aug 31, 09:03 3
- Six defenses went before I picked the Vikes, go figure -- nm - budice Aug 31, 09:04 2
  - They were 11th in fantasy points last year and I don't recall them improving much - Will Hunting Aug 31, 09:21
  - Considered them along with Philly. I like the Boys for schedule. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Aug 31, 09:08
Budice, me, Shay and then Redmond x2 to end the third round and start the fourth. - Krusty Aug 31, 09:01 1
- And the draft nightmare continues into day 2. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:01
Not sure where the clock is on my pick, but give me 10 minutes, please, and I'll have my pick in. - Stephen (Status Seeker) Aug 31, 08:58 3
- We have fire, soon we will grow crops -- nm - amoxy Aug 31, 09:05
- you should have time -- nm - Beaker Aug 31, 08:59
- no problemo -- nm - Jim Aug 31, 08:59
Speaking of NFL ticket prices - IRS auctioning off Dallas Cowboys seat package - bids start at $185,000. -- (link) - not2fast Aug 31, 08:56
The NFL should get rid of the blackout rules. If teams can't sellout their home games punishing the fans doesn't seem like the best - Krusty Aug 31, 08:54 13
- There's apparently a part of the rule most teams don't want you to know about. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 31, 09:00 1
  - The Raiders have doned a similar thing before by giving away tickets to local charities which somehow made them avoid blackouts. -- nm - Stacy Aug 31, 09:22
- yup, worked great for the Blackhawks once they changed ownership. Easiest way to build support in the city -- nm - Beaker Aug 31, 08:57
- agreed -- nm - prayformojo Aug 31, 08:55
- Shut up dude...the Rams will probably get blacked out 5-6 times this year and I'll get to watch a real game!!! -- nm - Jim Aug 31, 08:55 8
  - So you get a replacement game if there is a blackout? I'm surprised; I always thought you'd just get nothing on that channel. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 31, 09:00 6
    - I thought that too. I thought they had to show something other than a live football game. -- nm - Krusty Aug 31, 09:03 3
      - We got Andy Griffith repeats. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 31, 09:04 2
        
        Ha! -- nm - Krusty Aug 31, 09:08
        
        heh -- nm - Don Homer Aug 31, 09:04
    - Yeah, when our local games are blacked out, we get no football during that time slot. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 31, 09:02
    - Canadian Football League games -- nm - Beaker Aug 31, 09:01
  - *laughing* I guess for you it's a good thing. I'm waiting to see if the Jets get blacked out. They're not close to selling out right now. -- nm - Krusty Aug 31, 08:58
Meredith's response to 'Can't Let Him Go'. I'm still not a big fan of the advice but Upon Further Review some of it isn't awful. - Diva Aug 31, 08:51 4
- I totally disagree that she should ask about the rage. -- nm - loosilu Aug 31, 09:31 1
  - so do I. -- nm - Diva Aug 31, 09:36
- "he says I have rage issues but i never physically harmed him" sounds like "they say I'm a rapist, but I never acutally penetrated her w/o a condom." -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 31, 09:21
- She should have clarified that "Wipe the slate" doesn't mean "kill him in his sleep" -- nm - Beaker Aug 31, 08:58
LYC: Ear Gate 2010 - Went to the ENT doctor. He said I don't have an ear infection. Ear drum is pulled in like it has suction on it. There is some - sycor Aug 31, 08:50 2
- I hope it works and you're back to normal quickly. -- nm - Krusty Aug 31, 08:55 1
  - Yeah when he said the hearing loss "should come back" all I could think of was, "he didn't say it WILL come back. That means it might not. ACK!" had - sycor Aug 31, 08:56
amoxy, amoxy, groiny, hunting, up in my CC games. - tRuMaN Aug 31, 08:50
[deleted] 27
- 100% sane is 100% boring. -- nm - Max Aug 31, 09:29
- Too many times to count. -- nm - Spawn Aug 31, 09:19
- yes -- nm - tRuMaN Aug 31, 09:16
- No comment. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 31, 09:16 1
  - I'm not that crazy. -- nm - Loosi Aug 31, 09:29
- oh lord yes. -- nm - TFox Aug 31, 09:15
- crazy is claiming they are knocked up to keep you around. - groiny Aug 31, 09:13 2
  - Plus... they did those things... for *you*!!! ;) -- nm - Don Homer Aug 31, 09:24 1
    - the force is strong in me. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 31, 09:28
- Yep, but rotating to a new base every year or so saved me from stalking crazy. - ceregon Aug 31, 08:58
- yes, though I didn't know she was crazy until I tried to break it off, and she threatened to throw herself out the 9th-floor window. -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 08:52
- lia? -- nm - lileve Aug 31, 08:52 1
  - Oh her? Yeah, I did. nm - Jim Aug 31, 08:53
- Yes. Sex was great. But the crazy had to GTFO after a while. -- nm - sycor Aug 31, 08:51
- define girl. -- nm - znuznu si Aug 31, 08:50
- define crazy. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 31, 08:50 8
  - [deleted] 7
    - not crazy. -- nm - loosilu Aug 31, 09:30
    - that is not crazy at all. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 31, 09:10
    - a loooong time ago I went out on a match.com date with a guy who had said the exact same stuff. TMI follows... - Diva Aug 31, 09:06 3
      - but...why? he would have been gone. or would it have made *you* the crazy girl? -- nm - Max Aug 31, 09:28 1
        
        perhaps I should have been clearer about the fact that he was lying...then again, no, probably wouldn't have helped. -- nm - Diva Aug 31, 09:39
      - [deleted]
    - that's not THAT crazy. She should have gone to his work and done it. -- nm - sycor Aug 31, 08:57
- Nope. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 31, 08:49
- Pretty sure I was engaged to her -- nm - oblique Aug 31, 08:49 1
  - You too? - Mop (222 lbs) Aug 31, 09:00
Another fall Broadway season, another crop of great shows I probably won't get around to seeing... -- (link) - znufrii Aug 31, 08:47 16
- [deleted] 12
  - :P -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 08:53 11
    - it's more that after next month, I just won't have anyone to go with - znufrii Aug 31, 08:55 10
      - [deleted] 9
        
        and why on earth would I do that? -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 08:57 8
        
        [deleted] 7
        
        why on earth would you assume that? -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 09:18 6
        
        [deleted] 3
        
        why would you assume the same reasoning applies, I mean. - znufrii Aug 31, 09:35
        
        znu want to have this unicorn cake and eat it too! nm -- nm - groiny Aug 31, 09:33 1
        
        why on earth would I want that? -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 09:35
        
        Did the new one finally put her foot down? -- nm - Spawn Aug 31, 09:20 1
        
        what on earth are you talking about? -- nm - znufrii Aug 31, 09:21
- We get: HAIR, Next to Normal, Les Mis, Working, Wishful Drinking, and The Merchant of Venice in our subscription in Chicago -- nm - oblique Aug 31, 08:48 2
