QUOTE (Y2HH @ Apr 11, 2013 -> 11:46 AM) Oh, I completely get it. I just find it shallow and nothing more than a dog and pony show. And since you love tradition so much, if you do this, I sure hope you waited until you were married to have sex for the first time, too. Oh, wait, you like one tradition but not the other? I forgot...it's all about respect. Please, thank you, RSVPs, and most polite social conventions are all shallow, dog and pony shows. It seems however, those dog and pony shows separate our behavior from actual dogs and ponies.

We decided to go get a certificate of common law marriage so we could have the rights and benefits. No permission necessary. My first wife i followed the asking first route. It seemed cool, I liked the tradition. Although I don't recall if I told him or asked.

Steam ''hey hey goodbye'' in the obvious category. In the obscure it would be driving back home from South Padre Island around eleven. Knowing I'd get home around 12:30 or so. Those expressway drives remind me of leaving a Sox, Hawks, or Bulls game, same time frame.

Nice.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 30, 2013 -> 10:40 AM) Your college don't provide access to an online database of journals? Yes, however I need to do original research and to do that I need access to the original letters and that is where some of them are stored. No one has bothered to scan and make available.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 30, 2013 -> 10:36 AM) Why only 200? He threw 192 last year. Even if you buy the Verducci rule, the Sox can push him 220 without setting off alarms. I was using a benchmark that seemed reasonable. 220 sounds just as good.

I am approaching that moment in grad school where I have a choice to go thesis or no thesis route in my studies. I have been talking with the professor who would chair my committee, I have been in several of his classes and he believes I will have no problem with the actual writing of the thesis, but the research may be a struggle while also working days as a teacher. Much of the material I will need is housed at the UT library in Austin about 6 hours away from me. I may also need some papers that are in Lawrence Kansas. My PhD plans are still up in the air, who wants to hire a recently graduated 60+ year old PhD? But intellectually the challenge would be exactly what I need as I end my working career.

Nuclear Cleanup in Aisle 38, Nuclear Cleanup in Aisle 38. Just like wars in the middle east help American businesses like Boots & Coots, Halliburton, etc. I wonder if there is a publicly traded company that would benefit from a couple nuclear weapons being detonated.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 30, 2013 -> 08:40 AM) ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo 8h 19 brackets out of 8.15 million in Tournament Challenge correctly predicted all of the Elite Eight teams. Wow. I am surprised there are that many. I was in a gambling mood and decided to pick the team in the top 10 that nobody was really talking about and put them in the championship game. Go G-Town! f*** me.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 11, 2013 -> 11:01 AM) Start Q and absolutely give Sale the extra day, I hope it's not even a discussion in the Sox dugout. I don't care who the other team has on the mound. I have to agree. With Sale you have 200 innings to spend. When do you want to use them?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 26, 2013 -> 08:58 PM) Every day at work is awesome. I work for REI which is a dream job for me. I love my job because it allows me about three months of time to use all my REI products. It reminds me of a conversation I once had with the pro at the country club where I was a member. He kept urging me to take the PAT (playing ability test) to become a club pro. All I could think was so I can be here on a Saturday morning working the counter instead of playing? Sure.

Friday I taught Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower". We compared the styles of Dylan and Hendrix, analysed the lyrics, debated sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Not bad for a Friday.

It sounds like you each had an agreement with the lease company, not each other. Unless you two had some agreement, I do not see anyway to sue him.

There are a few shattered lives in the story.

Nice to see so many fans of foreigners coming in a taking jobs. Seriously this should have happened ten years ago.

I applaud the verdict. I understand and agree that victims can be too drunk to consent, therefor are not responsible for their actions. Should we also have some compassion for people who are too drunk to understand the implications of their actions?

Do you have a picture?

If it had been a Packer fan it would have been drawn much smaller.

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Mar 5, 2013 -> 10:38 PM) 6 of 1... I believe greed and religion are two very distinct things. The thesis "more wars have been started for religion" is very different than "more wars have been started for greed". The old exploration saying of doing it for "gold, God, or glory" holds true with wars as well.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 01:07 PM) I am going with 88-74. I really like the pitching staff this year, which of course means Sale and Peavy will have surgery by Memorial Day... Exactly what I was thinking.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 10:59 AM) what the hell is a smelt? Fresh water sardines kind of. You catch them in gill nets that are run out on long lines which are thrown or launched from shore. They are deep fried while drinking large amounts of beer.

With the money that JR and Co. saved by not bringing back AJ, I can take a longer vacation, perhaps go out to dinner more often, and maybe buy first editions of On The Road and Dharma Bums. What are y'all going to do with the money? /ducking guys

What I should be doing . . . Is writing a short research paper on Lady Mark Wroth an English Renaissance poet. What I am doing . . . Reading a couple forums and dreaming about spring break next week.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 11:06 PM) This is solid information. I went out smelt fishing with friends in high school and college a few of times out on the seawall at Burnham Harbor and had a great time. I didn't have any gear but my friends did, and as long as we had beer to share there were other fishermen out there that were happy to share fresh smelt they were grilling or frying. Don't know if it's the same sort of vibe it was back then but it is something I fondly remember. X2 I found it a lot like ice fishing, very social.
