  1. QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 08:56 AM) Someone find me a cheap airplane ticket so I can come too. Sorry kap... I take care of the first trip.. after that you're on your own.
  2. QUOTE(Texsox @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 10:03 PM) And Evil, obviously these people are heading to bankruptcy. Care to share with us how these people passed Rent-A-Centers Credit check? How many of these people defaulted on their payments and had to be repossessed? Just a guess.. but I doubt credit checks are even done - although they probably charge them for one. Don't these kinds of places charge insane amounts of interest..? I wonder if anyone ever gets to the "own" part of the "rent-to-own" deal...
  3. Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants over 100%. How about achieving 103%? Here's a little math that might prove helpful. What makes life 100%? If A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. Then, H A R D W O R K 8 1 18 4 23 15 18 11 = 98% K N O W L E D G E 11 14 15 23 12 5 4 7 5 = 96% But, A T T I T U D E 1 20 20 9 20 21 4 5 = 100% And, B U L L S H I T 2 21 12 12 19 8 9 20 = 103% So, it stands to reason that hardwork and knowledge will get you close, attitude will get you there, but bulls*** will put you over the top. And look how far A S S K I S S I N G 1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118% will take you.
  4. Robinson's reaction to this has sure been interesting. Usually pretty level headed.
  5. http://www.wzzm13.com/news/grmetro_article...x?storyid=40986 DNA Tests Fail to Distinguish Between Twin Rape Suspects Grand Rapids - Twin brothers, both suspects in a rape case. But, who did it? That's the question facing Grand Rapids Police. It's a question they hoped DNA technology could solve. But, today's technology isn't giving police an answer. Police say either Jerome or Tyrone Cooper raped a woman in November of 1999, near Fulton and Jefferson in Grand Rapids. Sgt. Tim Williams of the Grand Rapids Police Department says, “According to the DNA, one of them is responsible for this assault.” The problem is, Jerome and Tyrone Cooper are identical twins, with identical DNA. So, police don't know which twin is responsible for the rape. That's where Orchid Cellmark came in. The bio-science company tested the Cooper brother's DNA. Dr. Robert Giles of Orchid Cellmark says, “What we were looking for were very minute differences, genetic differences that might occur between identical twins.” These are differences or mutations that may have come about, since the time when the egg split, creating twins. But, Giles says, “Unfortunately, what we have found is that if these minute differences do exist, we have not been able to pinpoint them with the technology that we currently have available.” Technology has come a long way. Scientists used to be able to test just a few hundred characteristics of DNA. For the Cooper brothers, Orchid Cellmark checked about 100,000 DNA characteristics. But, scientists still did not find any differences. But, the company is not giving up, just putting efforts on hold. Orchid Cellmark says as quickly as technology is improving, they could be able to check even more DNA characteristics in just a few months. So, police still hope the DNA will point a finger at one of the Cooper brothers. Sgt. Williams says, “They obviously are on notice that we know that one of them is responsible. So, it's not going to be forgotten.” There is no statute of limitations in this sexual assault case. The Cooper brothers, will wait for any future DNA results behind bars. Both men are in prison on separate, unrelated charges. But, both are up for parole in 2006.
  6. QUOTE(Beastly @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 11:49 PM) Well, not clueless, but I think I saw something tonight.. Sitting with my friend Cassie at the game, I pointed out the kiss cam to her. Surely enough, a woman that looked like soxtalk's very own Steff was kissed by her husband. Amusing, to say the least. Good eye..

  22. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 09:36 AM) The new Arlington Stadium is brutal during the summer. We went on a 4th of July a couple of years ago, and no wind was moving at all. Brutal isn't the word. I swear I was melting there.
  23. QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 09:31 AM) One thing that I see mis-stated often is that the jury declared Jackson "innocent." No, he was declared not guilty - they are not the same thing. A couple was talking about this at the game last night with another couple endlessly and loudly well into the 6th inning. The one guy in the one couple was pounding his chest saying that he's was innocent.. the woman that appeared to be his partner said.. "do you think OJ is innocent..?" He said no.. so she reminded him that OJ was found "not guilty". He shut up about it for the rest of the night.
