I didn't mean to imply that at all, although now that I look back at my comment, the smiley face may have implied that. My bad. It was just a thought that the heat would dry up the oil, relieving any associated pain.

That sounds pretty awesome. We have a ton of mosquitoes around here right now, and they love my blood.

I used to work at Cape Canaveral (ROCC), and I couldn't imagine doing a Triathlon during the very hot and humid month of May. Let's see how many people collapse during the biking and running phases.

OMFG, I laughed so hard when I saw the main picture. Thanks Jesus, perfect way to start my day.

Why does the background music sound like Jim's stripping music from American Pie?

I was thinking the same damned thing after watching that. I think I licked the wrong stamp.

If you think Battlefield Earth was bad, wait until "Mission Earth" and "Dianetics THE MOVIE" is made into movies. I'll have to make some popcorn and fashion myself a foil hat for those.

Jeez, did you see the permissions list for Current Caller ID? It's huge.

Brent, from someone who has eaten (part) of a ghost pepper twice, I commend you on your courage to reach test #3. Your analogy of hot coal and angry scorpions once it hit your stomach is spot on. My girlfriend videotaped my (second) try, but due to the fact my head turned beet red, and my forehead, eyes, and nose…

Crap, it's all my fault! I must have put a decimal point in the wrong place or something. Shit! I always do that. I always mess up some mundane detail.

I can't wait to come around a corner in heavy rain, and see a vehicle coming at me with strobe lights aimed at me. That's awesome. It may help those that have it installed, but it'll kill thousands that don't have it.

F* Monster cable and their outrageously expensive crap. I buy all my cables and adapters from Monoprice. They are excellent quality and the best prices you can find anywhere. In fact, I just ordered 2 HDMI and 8 cat6 cables from them yesterday. Only cost me $19 bucks for all. I bet mine will last longer then those…

They now pay $120 per screw. Inflation sucks. =)

I started using WinAmp in 1997. I converted all my CD's to mp3 using l3enc back then, and WinAmp was the perfect player for listening to them all. I was upset to hear when AOL bought out Nullsoft, but I still use WinAmp as my mp3/aac/flac player. Old habits die hard. WinAmp still works as well as it used to. Just…

You're right, but flying into Innsbruck makes for a crazy landing.

Just imagine how many unwashed, germ-infested hands those bills have gone through. Do you really want to put your food into something made with one of the most unsanitary objects on the planet? Yummy!

Birds and insects are part of the complimentary in-flight meal.

I was going to ask the same question.

In the coming years, prepare to have absolutely no expectation of privacy, even in your own home. It the New World Order, give it a hug, it's your new best friend.

The parking area will be on the other side of the ridge (to the East [top of pic], pictured here), with pedestrian tunnels cutting through.
