- Uh, are they staying there? Are the other kids over 21? - JaxSean Oct 24, 18:48

  - Beerjeweled -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:17
- I wouldn't if she had friends over. That could get you in trouble -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:13
- you're fine. That beer is for kids anyway. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:11

Man, the air *is* thin ... the macbook air, that is. Quite a bit more thin than the behemoth laptop I'm on right now. :) -- (link) - Beryllium Oct 24, 17:57 9
- what's in the harddrive? It can't be that much, right. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 24, 18:10 7
  - bigger than my mac mini. I think it's 320gb. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 24, 18:19 6
    - I heard they depend on a lot of functionality to be online. - Mel Profit Oct 24, 18:37 5
      - Ah, I just looked at the specs: flash storage. 64GB is the smallest size (for SSD). - Beryllium Oct 24, 18:40 4
        
        I just cleaned up Diva's old Inspiron... - Mel Profit Oct 24, 18:43 3
        
        i am amazed at how lightweight my new 13" macbook pro is. - tRuMaN Oct 24, 19:13
        
        yep. The air is the bridge between the iPad and the MacBook Pro that would work for me ... - Beryllium Oct 24, 18:45 1
        
        except that it costs more than a macbook pro - tRuMaN Oct 24, 19:14
- I wonder how they deal with the heat issues -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:59
They are easily the dumbest TAR team ever. -- nm - Dano Oct 24, 17:42 3

    - L4. You are soooo funny!!! - Jenbro si Oct 24, 17:53 5
      - (grin) you have to admit ... the "Bacon, please" would have been the better board roll. - JenBro Oct 24, 19:03 4
        
        How can he say, "Bacon Please" if his tongue is hanging out the side of his mouth? - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 19:04 3
        
        no .. it's not when he says it ... its like that before he speaks ... he's just "dog chillin" -- nm - JenBro Oct 24, 19:17 2
        
        He doesn't pant often. Honestly, the only time his tongue seems to hang out of his mouth is when he yawns. - kelly Oct 24, 19:20 1
        
        he's getting tired of schooling Redmond :D -- nm - JenBro Oct 24, 19:32
Why do pizza sales go up before a major holiday? I would never guess that. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:36 37
- It's really interesting it's mostly just the Friday before too. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:41 14
  - interesting how it is Friday. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:42 13
    - Also interesting is how people are complaining about speciality pizzas going up to 12 dollars when just two years ago they were 16. Economics sucks. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:43 12
      - have you noticed any difference in tips? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:45 11

        Exactly! Eat me Uncle Sam! -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:48
        
        Heh. That's pretty amusing. I haven't graphed it, but perception is down somewhat. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:47
        
        whoa. ok, since I don't have a spreadsheet, how's the mean between 2009 and now? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:47 5
        
        I'd have to actually go through the data. That's not a real spreadsheet persay. - Qale Oct 24, 17:47 4
        
        if you highlight the column, it will show you the mean in the bottom right. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:48 3
        
        That doesn't seem the case in MSWorks. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:52 2
        
        ah. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:52 1
        
        I think the average is $22.50. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:55
        
        That's pretty damn personal -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:45
- Quick and easy meal before having to cook a massive dinner. -- nm - Dano Oct 24, 17:40

  - ah, ok. I have never hosted tgiving. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:41 19
    - I have cooked Thanksgiving the last 4 out of 5 years. - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:42 18
      - I was first invited by my 'desert rat' friends one year when Bill was in K.C. and I know he came with me at least one year after that...so that's at - MojaveMeg Oct 24, 18:08 7
        
        One year I was alone might have been right after my divorce and I cooked an entire Thanksgiving for myself. - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:11 6
        
        I'd probaby do that - maybe scale down to just a turkey breast - it's all about the leftovers :) - MojaveMeg Oct 24, 18:15 1
        
        I have had a few Christmas' alone. Very relaxing as well. I always get a live tree and use it for 2 or 3 years - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:19
        
        aw. I have never done it alone. it would be hard. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:12 3
        
        It's actually pretty nice. Very relaxing. -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:14 2
        
        maybe one year my holidays won't be owned by someone else. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:18 1
        
        Come to my house. Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings, a warm fire going.... -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:20
      - Nice. I'd love to start doing this but I don't think it would go over well here. -- nm - kelly Oct 24, 17:54
      - can I come over? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:43 8
        
        Sure -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:44 4
        
        actually, I'm going to my brother's in Kentucky. He's a damn good cook. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:47 3
        
        He doesn't do dessert as well as me. -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:54 2
        
        prove it. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:00 1
        
        Get your plane ticket -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:22
        
        Oh sure, it sounds like a good idea, but even his cranberry sauce has bacon in it. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:44 2
        
        I'm cool with that. I'll even bring beer. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:44 1
        
        With bacon. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:48
tar spoils - JenBro Oct 24, 17:35
LYC: Being in the pool with synch swim practice is considerably less fun than being next to lifeguard practice. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:35
speaking of TAR... it's delayed tonight locally because all 3 major stations are doing wall2wall coverage of "rain" until who knows when - i'm not Undead yet ! Oct 24, 17:32
Wha what? -- nm - lileve Oct 24, 17:31 1
- In the butt? -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:35
