Definetely an interesting show. It does feel indie in a lot of ways, which I haven’t decided if that is a good or bad thing. I dig the concept of the show and am looking forward to where it will go.

Totally. I bought a nice pair of Reboks in May from a closing Sports Chalet(?). Did a race in June and got massive shin splints. Went back and bought some Asics right before they closed the doors. I wore them for a month and while they helped the shin pain, it didn’t go away and other areas of my feet were hurting. I…

Getting a proper fit for shoes if really getting into running will help a lot. I was getting a lot of injuries because I kept buying whatever shoe felt fine in the store. I finally went to a specialty running store and was fitted with some great shoes. The price wouldn’t have hurt as much if I had just started there…

Had a similar expereince with my 67 Ranchero. “Blew” the engine that came with it, or so I was told by a friend who “knew” more than me. Bought one that had been sitting in a guy’s back yard for at least two years. It was caked in crap, but I took it home for about $200. I spent the next year cleaning it and doing a…

I was reading the VP debate transcript like this. Made the whole thing a lot more enjoyable.

+1 for Tucker and Dale. It isn’t scary, but it is really funny. I also love Alan Tudyk so I guess I am a bit biased. I showed it to a group of film school grads who all took 5 minutes to roll their eyes and declare it as the usual hack ‘n slash trope. A little bit later, when the twist start to come in, they were on…

I was really interested in this show as it built up to the premier. I am a pretty big Sci-Fi buff, and love the whole genre bending element of this show. I did not see the original movie so I am going into this whole thing blind. The first episode was great in that it offers up an interesting world, along with just…

I use to work as a cast member (ride operator) there. I’m amazed that this has even been an issue as managers are pretty strict, at least were when I worked there. Then it wasn’t even allowed to have a cell phone in your pocket during working hours. This was something like ten years ago though.

I’ve had accounts at big banks and a few credit unions. My wife has worked for credit unions since we started dating some 14 years ago. Compared to a bank the credit unions that I’ve belonged to have offered better customer service. It usually just seems like “I” matter more to them. Since they’re smaller companies…

1) 1967 Ford Ranchero - By far my favorite body, but a 1 year only style that made finding parts incredibly annoying. I saw that it had a lot of rust in the floorboards, but bought it anyway because these are rare years and I was blinded by love. Drove it somewhat reliably for 2 months and then the engine started…

As a graduate from a different for-profit college, I wish the government would swoop in and shut them all down. Without standard accreditation the degrees are generally worthless. I remember going to the career fairs at my college and being offered things that were way outside of my degree path, and the things that…

I can’t count the stupid things I’ve done similar to that. One was when I was rebuilding a Ford 302 as a replacement for a supposedly bad 289. I thought the water pumps were the same, but how tall the the water pump pulley stuck out was about a 1/4 inch different. Nice thing to find out after it was put in to the car…

Pretty much have to agree. The hardware is pretty cool, but it still lacks a lot, and I say this as a developer. The best experience that I could produce was building a game for PC and then streaming the content to an android phone inside of a headset. Even then the experience was stunted.

Just sold my wife’s ‘66 Dodge Dart GT. It was a weird, rare GT in that it was a Slant 6. Basically had every option available for a SL6. It had sat in a garage for at least 13 years before we bought it, and probably longer. Aside from some surface rust on the hood, roof, and trunk lid, the thing was spotless.…

Always great to see my general area in the news. I wouldn’t say this is “just east of L.A.” as L.A. is at least 45 minutes from there, if no other cars are on the road.

I will probably pick one up. I have yet to buy a PS4 and am looking to get one roughly around the time this comes out, so it works out. I wouldn’t say that I am super excited for all of the bells and whistles, just glad that I didn’t buy one at launch like I had planned. I have been pretty happy with my Xbone and…

I went to a different For-Profit college/university about ten years ago. I wish I had chosen to go with a community college and then to a four year after getting my A.S./A.A. I didn’t and now I owe a ton of money to the government. I only received my A.S. there and then went back to get my B.S. and was told that…

As a SoCal resident, who also worked at the Disney parks for awhile, I can say that I am fully on board with this.. ToT is a cool and fun ride, but they really want to get some Marvel into the parks and the Tower is an easy target. Twilight Zone doesn’t hold much for “kids these days” and GotG was huge. It is a…

Got this for Christmas last year and have been having a tough time getting into it. Part of the issue was going a little too agressive with the story and ending up way underleveled for the area that I am in. That has meant a lot of time grinding away and dying often. I keep debating on a reload of the game. It has…

Ghostbusters was good, though I agree that the villain was underdeveloped. I am sure it was difficult to balance out the buddy-cop banter of the girls with the actual story they were trying to tell.
