Who is dieting?
Just a hint to some of you folks whom I can see are updating your #s daily... you'll go nuts doing that. Trust me, you'll want to commit to a once-a-week weigh in (or at most twice). I'm doing mine on Friday mornings. It's just better for your sanity to weigh in once a week.

That's some good s***.

Tax Prep
I think I'll just pick up Turbo Tax Deluxe for Fed/State this weekend (i presume if its ordered online they just let you download it) and then I'll take care of it Saturday night. As a new homeowner, is there anything I should know about re: deductions? Will TTd take care of those for me?

Who is dieting?
QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Feb 7, 2008 -> 11:33 AM) Not that it much matters, but if you start everybody on Feb 5 that is going to make all of us folks who started their diets at New Years look like underperformers compared to those just starting. The first month is easy and weight just pretty much falls off of you. No that I'm a month in I'm lucky to lose 2-3 lbs/week as opposed to the 5-7 pounds I could loose the first couplel weeks of the diet. Again, I'm not going to stress about it, but wanted to point out that inequality. Yeah, I started really going at it a week before this and those 5 lbs were hard earned and should count! Where's Jillian when you need someone to beat some ass!?

2007-2008 NHL Catch All Thread
QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Feb 7, 2008 -> 10:48 AM) Besides like that link said he already turned down a few of the best teams, why would he agree to come to the Hawks? Because he cares about a multi-year deal... I'm sure the "best" teams only offered him a contract for this season.

2007-2008 NHL Catch All Thread
QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Feb 7, 2008 -> 08:46 AM) On the Main Hawks board someone is claiming DT offered Forsberg a multi year deal...I love Forsberg but think he is way beyond his great playing days. He spends more time on the IR than Havlat. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=229000&hubname=nhl I think this is a move that's worth the risk. Forsberg said himself he wouldn't come back unless he thought he could play at his top level without the injury bug. I think it's just a crazy chance to land one of the most talented players in the league and if we get lucky we get lucky... the guy makes us an instant contender for top 4 next season (of course, thats IF healthy).

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 10:42 PM) /calls on his inner steve0978345798345 Hawks lost 4-1, Lalime sucks. Can't believe he couldn't keep them in the game. Those 3 goals in the 2nd took all the life out of them, especially those 2 within 40 seconds to make it 3-1! Totally different game if he tosses up a shutout, or just one goal. We might be in OT right now! Goaltending let us down yet again tonight, it's as simple as that. /no other comments about the rest of the team's play or coaching /end post I think you have a KRUSH on me, every one of your posts seems to include my name.

Who is dieting?
QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Feb 7, 2008 -> 09:16 AM) ok, I was just suggesting a saturday night cap to the list of people I'll be tracking...but I suppose people can join as they want. They'll need to PM so I can put them on my spreadsheet. I thought about it this morning, and I think if everyone can take a picture of their scale to start us off and then weekly pictures to keep everyone honest. Is that too hard for folks? if so, maybe we can just do a honesty policy on a weekly basis, but do pics at one month, 3 months and/or 6 months. thoughts? I've got no problem with that, but I don't see any reason to cheat unless I missed the fact that the winner gets $100k!

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 11:25 AM) It's 2010? Hmmm, that's certainly interesting. That's the opt-out year for Wade, Lebron and Melo. When does Nash's contract end? That was my thinking. They've set themselves up to pickup anyone of those stars.

Noah Lowry/Matt Cain (for some reason?)
QUOTE(sircaffey @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 12:35 PM) Basically, we'll have roughly 15 starts (DL time included) come from someone outside of the rotation, and I would feel much better if that was coming from an experienced SP rather than one of our fringy prospects. If we want to make a run at the playoffs, I think that's a necessity. Agreed 100%. Lowry makes our team deeper and better.

Hawk signs extension
QUOTE(TLAK @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 07:25 AM) That will take him to age 69. You can put it on the board ... wheeze! I would have guessed he was already older than that.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 01:08 PM) Has anyone seen absentee vs "day-of" voting in California? I'd be VERY interested to see what those numbers are. Hadn't even thought of that...

Thats weird, this morning they had it Clinton 901 to Obama 824, but now they have it at Obama 847, Clinton 834. Someone please explain this to me. That would be huge if true. Why do miscalculations come out? If someone could send me to a reliable source to read about this whole process I'd feel much better about myself.

I understand wanting to get rid of Shawn Marion... but that Shaq contract ($20 mill per for two seasons after this one) is killer... they could have done better I would think. That is unless they think Shaq can magically be 5 years younger.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Feb 5, 2008 -> 11:48 PM) wow. that's just absurd. i mean honestly... if you just step back and look at those numbers that is just plain insanity. talk about a divided party... Yeah, but look at the sheer numbers that are turning out. Anyone voting DEM right now will likely vote DEM come the actual election. I think we will have a more unified party than most and anyone backing Obama or Hillary will vote for the other one when all is said and done.

Ebay's demise
QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Feb 5, 2008 -> 03:44 PM) D'oh! I had it backwards in my mind. There was way too much retaliatory feedback BS. Even if you had a crappy experience and wanted to leave negative feedback, you knew that the seller was going to do the same to you just to screw you over. Yup, and that's exactly what they are eliminating so it's a good move.
