- $800. And you need a permit to have a yard sale? That seems very wrong to me. -- nm - Krusty Sep 7, 09:41 2
  - There are about four permit-free weekends a year -- nm - con_carne Sep 7, 09:42 1
    - You shouldn't need a permit to have a yard sale. Just another way for the city to stick it's hand in your pocket. -- nm - Krusty Sep 7, 09:44

- The Daily Show had Gasland director Josh Fox on back in June -- (link) - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:51
- Is that T. Boone at the end of the trailer for FLOW? -- (link) - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:45 [youtube] 1
  - Yeah, looks like T. Boone Pickens is trying to drink your milkshake (or at least your water) by disguising it as a plan to build windmills. -- (link) - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:52 [youtube]
- Holy f*ck. Check the Gasland trailer here. The thing with the lighter and the faucet instantly makes me angry. -- (link) - Michael Bay Sep 7, 09:32 [youtube] 4
  - I thought you loved stuff that blows up? -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 7, 09:34
  - Watch the whole movie at PBS.org. -- (link) - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:33 2
    - Oh, it's just a 23 interview with the filmmaker. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:34 1
      - You'll still want to watch it. The guy did some serious research for this. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 7, 09:36
- Gasland made me angry. I'm very nervous that they'll do it here in NY too. - Krusty Sep 7, 09:28 5
  - It should make everyone angry. Thank God they are being fought. That was the one positive thing I took from the doc (the end scenes). - HdnAgnda Sep 7, 09:30 4
    - It's huge around PA too. Lots of people are selling their rights - and lots of people are opposing it -- nm - decline Sep 7, 09:37 2
      - PA is the hardest hit right now. They don't have it in NY, as far as I know. - Krusty Sep 7, 09:39
      - I drink your milkshake. -- nm - lileve Sep 7, 09:39
    - NY seems to be fighting it every step of the way. (spoils) - Krusty Sep 7, 09:36
Danny Trejo on Good Day L.A. "It takes four "B's" to make a good movie; Blades, Bullets, Blood, and Broads -- nm - CrankYanker Sep 7, 09:24 16
- I'd figure he'd use "boobs" instead of "broads". -- nm - nubby Sep 7, 09:56
- How old is this guy? Who says "borads" insted of "babes"? -- nm - mara Sep 7, 09:27 13
  - He actually stopped at the fourth "B" - of course Jillian piped in and said "Boobs", then he said "I didn't want to say 'broads' on air". -- nm - CrankYanker Sep 7, 09:49
  - yeah, everyone knows you don't call chicks "broads" -- nm - znufrii Sep 7, 09:36
  - I think babes are younger than broads -- nm - con_carne Sep 7, 09:35 2
    - Yeah, older women really make the film. -- nm - mara Sep 7, 09:51 1
      - Sarcasm detector..... ??? Have you seen the movie? The cast are no spring chickens. -- nm - con_carne Sep 7, 10:00
  - The guy's a seriously bad ex-con. He can say whatever he likes. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:35 1
    - Con Air! -- nm - Beaker Sep 7, 09:36
  - pipe down, boitch, the fifth B is "backhands" -- nm - Danny T Sep 7, 09:33
  - he's 62 according to EW. -- nm - Diva Sep 7, 09:27 2
    - 66 per wikipedia. -- nm - Reagen Sep 7, 09:30 1

- Followed a few days later by "Remove second pilot. Also, go out of business." -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 09:22 1
  - that should be "remove first pilot". dangit. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 09:22

- Seriously? Can you see this with the naked eye or did you run some kind of diagnostic? -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:25 2
  - Capacitors are the "tower" looking things that stick up off a circuit board. Blown ones look like their tops are popped off -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 09:27
  - Capacitors aren't that small. -- nm - lileve Sep 7, 09:26
- I'll post photos once I get the new drivers installed -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 09:20
- What I want you to do is hold up the capacitors and run real fast down this road. When lightning strikes the clock tower... -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 7, 09:19

Did anyone know the Jerry Lewis Telethon was on this weekend? (And it raised $59 million?) -- (link) - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:07 10
- yes. I drove by the South Coast Casino 3 or 4 times -- nm - peglegpete Sep 7, 09:20
- Telethon you say? Since when?! -- nm - Reagen Sep 7, 09:11
- I expect it used to be a much bigger deal. How does this year compare to its hey-day? -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:09 6
  - Looks like 2008 was the most ever at $65M. -- (link) - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:13 5
    - I'm surprised it's still such a draw. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:14 4
      - alot of people watch and contribute to it religiously - especially those with friends or family who have the disease - decline Sep 7, 09:16 3
        
        But it also used to be a nationally televised event that more people were aware of. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:20 2
        
        When there were only 3 network channels, this was it over the weekend -- nm - Ron Wesley Sep 7, 09:21 1
        
        Right, but it's still pulling in $50M+ (and it's record numbers the last few years) when it's *not* the only thing on. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:56
- Only reason I remenbered it was on because of his bizarre tirade against Lindsay Lohan -- nm - amoxy Sep 7, 09:09
Re: the strike in France. They're going to reform the pension system so that it breaks even by 2018. That's awesome. - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:07 1

  - Google Chrome! -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 09:06 12
    - stupid work computer not letting me install my own browser. -- nm - znufrii Sep 7, 09:10 11
      - You really should use Portable Apps then. Drop it on a USB stick -- (link) - oblique Sep 7, 09:11 3
        
        uh, he works for a (really really big) bank. I really doubt they would allow him to plug a usb stick into his pc. -- nm - decline Sep 7, 09:13 2
        
        yeah, that has the potential to create a huge information security hole... - znufrii Sep 7, 09:19
        
        Are you saying znufrii is infected? :) -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 09:17
      - I find it amusing that your company refuses to upgrade off of hole-ridden IE6 -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 09:10 6
        
        We only got IE7 a few months ago. -- nm - TFox Sep 7, 09:11 5
        
        We're on IE8 but I'm only rolling out Office 2007 next month -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 09:11 4
        
        Stuff like Outlook 2007 does not surprise me, but considered the publicized IE6 issues, and the degradation of support - ty97 Sep 7, 09:13 3
        
        on the other hand, I can't fathom the number of computers they must have. A rollout to a new version must be huge -- nm - decline Sep 7, 09:15 2
        
        we *just* got upgraded to XP a few months ago. - znufrii Sep 7, 09:18
        
        True, but IE7 was released four years ago. -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 09:16
  - That, or you're in stupid Canada -- nm - Roger More Sep 7, 09:06 8
    - laughing. I'm getting it. -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 09:06
    - *doublechecks* - znufrii Sep 7, 09:06 4
      - No, indeed. No beautiful fur-hatted women serving you maple glazed donuts and ketchup flavored chips on their bare breasts. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:08 3
        
        you actually just made breasts sound gross. -- nm - TFox Sep 7, 09:10 2
        
        Kinda like looking at you with your shirt off. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 7, 09:11
        
        heh. - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:11
    - Well, that's redundant. -- nm - TFox Sep 7, 09:06 1
      - that's his term for Rhode Island. -- nm - Reagen Sep 7, 09:07
- Catch my balls! - nm - Google Sep 7, 09:03 5
  - ...and shave them! -- nm - Google Sep 7, 09:03 4
    - No no no. Back of the line, you. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 7, 09:05 3
      - eww, jax has a fursack -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 09:08
      - aaww, you're no fun. ;) -- nm - lileve Sep 7, 09:08 1
