spend $15 more and get a Becker BK2 instead of that damned BG knife. Seriously. You'll thank me if and when the shit hits the fan.

right. when the tsunami's annihilated, well, everything, there were people at work getting hysterical, some were sobbing uncontrollable, etc. i watched the TV in utter fascination. as for body count? the bigger it got, the more in awe i was of the power of mother nature. god im fucked in the head.

interesting read, thank you for that. i 'know' way more than 150 people, but in actuality, i have maybe 4 or 5 people, at most, that i keep close contact with. if you went to high school or college with me, chances are i wouldn't even remember your name. im pretty picky :-)

im in the same boat, but as a disclaimer, i'm also pretty messed up already. i can view that material without a hint of emotion, because i know that it is simply an image. my mind doesnt put the connection together that that person is (or was) a living person, a child, a brother, a son, a husband, a wife, etc. to me,…

i worked in a retail store that also sold electronics, cell phones, etc. I know this happens at nearly EVERY retail center, but when an attractive woman brings in her PC, Mac or cell phone, the first thing we would do was let her know it would be a while as we 'did system functions' (backed up the entire…

Great. 4 is my daughter's favorite number. EVERYTHING has to be 4. 4 of this, 4 of that. 4, 4, 4. What's that new Kiefer Sutherland drama that bombed? My luck is my daughter is some savant who is witnessing the future demise of our population, and the only answer is.....4.

Best. Movie. Ever.

or what if the second party had their own second party?????

Imagine being Aron Ralston. Having your arm trapped between a literal rock and a hard place, running out of water, slowly going mad while you wait to die. And then having to overcome the realization that you will indeed have to dismember yourself in order to stay alive.

I have a HD HomeRun hooked up to a Win7 tower used as a server because I used to use my ASRock ION HTPC, but have since moved to aTV's around the house, which do not work with the .wtv (dvr-ms) format that WIN7-MC records in.

I was the youngest of 4 (im a twin actually, but still younger by a few minutes) so i had it easy really. My older siblings broke the parents in for us. with that said, this was still the early 80's, so it was still ok to beat/assign hard labor to your child in public for misbehaving, etc.

I did chores because I was TOLD to do chores. If I refused, I got swatted with the wooden spoon. Even when I was 14! And my chores were more than 'pick up your room, unload the dishwasher... etc' We had a huge yard with trees, so it was 'spend 6 hours of your Saturday picking up sticks, mowing, tending to the garden,…

Thanks for the info. I will check out your blog. Glad you are better!

wow man, that is a fantastic story! curious how that worked growing up though, with half of your cerebellum going unprotected. did you have to be extra cautious, etc while playing? or were your symptoms to a point that playing was not even an option?

Fantastic, thank you!

I'm a serious noob at car events, but can someone educate me on the purpose of a 'hill climb'? Is it simply for fun, or is traversing said hill some sort of daunting task or major feat of engineering prowess?

+1!!!

my wife works for a vascular device company, and i can corroborate your statement. its not just a conspiracy, there are instances where this is commonplace in pharma.

Here in Iowa, you typically see the State Patrol dragging good sized White Tail deer off of the Interstate. Either that, or there is a literal deer 'explosion' when said deer meets tractor trailer moving at 75mph, especially when the doomed deer is attempting to traverse the 4 lanes. In that case, you just hope for a…

And in the end, the Masked Bandit got his stripes.
