  1. QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 03:41 PM) Dead pool payouts are going to be VERY small this year. We always paid the person with the most points. 100 less the age of the celebrity. And typically it was 50-30-20 split. So the payout was always the same no matter how many celebrities dies. We also limited your list to 20.
  2. Eureka! I have developed the X-ray machine! What's that? We can make an image of your bones without opening you up! Whaaaaat? What is thaaaat gonna cost!!?? We take one of these expensive X-rays and what is nothing is broken? What a waste of money. Yeah, I guess it was a dumb idea. You know, just wondering when medical tests became a waste of money. There is a small chance, one in a thousand, this is some scary ass thing that could kill you. Fortunately, we developed a test that could detect it before it can kill your ass. Waste of money?
  3. Something for my GOPerhead friends, I'll come back and explain it if y'all don't get it
  4. It was closer to this, but LMAO at the one above
  5. I just received a series of good news, now to try and capitalize on them
  6. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 10:44 AM) So why is it that there is no spare capacity anywhere? What are you basing that on? I see spare capacity all over the place. One easy thing, how many Doctors are advertising? Why advertise if you have no capacity? Also, if there is money to fund expansion, don't you think companies will expand? Another idea, since we are making some major changes, let's build into a new system more P.A.s and R.N. care clinics. There will be a growth curve, and some growing pains, but Americans have always found ways to ramp up and get the job done. That's how we won WW2 and it is how we will win this.
  7. QUOTE (Earl @ Sep 2, 2009 -> 11:10 AM) I'm looking for a thread from a few months (?) ago regarding places to eat around the Cell. I tried the search feature and got the message about the search engine being off line "for the moment". Should I try later? Thanks! http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...mp;#entry812014 This may be the one you are looking for.
  8. He hosted SNL and he and his wife put on a great ballroom dancing show. Straight up, no joking. Seemed like one of the few who lived a normal life instead of the tabloid kind of crazy Hollywood life
  9. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 10:35 PM) Maybe you should try stewart and colbert normally do, but that isn't "late" night unless you are FlaSoxxJim
  10. I am so proud of myself. Some tree hugging green dude on a bike was riding right next to a puddle, I hit the water just right and sent a big old shower of muddy water all over his spandex.
  11. QUOTE (kapkomet @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 10:21 PM) You don't get it. Private insurance cannot compete. They lose money under this. Private health care is springing back up in Canada because people hate the system. Gee, go figure. It's a boondoggle to control what they don't now, and that IS socialism, whether you want to admit it or not. They ARE liberal because they KNOW what it will do. Oh, let's take public option off the table, but in its place, let's put regulations up the ass on what they can and cannot do. Last time I checked, that means they will be so regulated that they will not be able to make the decisions in a market based situation. Oh, I forgot. The "market" is an evil socio-f***up that we dare not do. We must contain salaries, health care, industries, environment, and everything else under the sun, all in the name of making our society so much better - they know what's best for us, shut the f*** up, sit down, no debates, we know what's better for you then you know! Barackus the Great knows utopia, and we will arrive! Woot! Citizens of the US are here to provide profits for corporations. The government of the people should get out of the way and let the corporations dictate how they want to take profits from the people. Become a government for the corporations. Hell, let stop voting and allow corporations to run everything. Enron, Worldcom, bank after bank, and the list goes on. There is a balance, you think the government is evil, I get it. The government sucks. How dare we think we could do something better than Canada!? Next you will say we should stop some military action because it didn't work for the French. Damn, kaperboly is fun!
  12. It takes a few guys to throw someone out. But the catcher has to have a quick release and an accurate throw. That can make up for a lot, but not all, of the pitcher's sins.
  13. 1,500 posts and y'all haven't solved the problem? Damn partisan slackers.
  14. Too many mistakes on that list to even bother about correcting. Perhaps this would be a good time for a soxtalk group project??
  15. There is also an unwritten expectation that teams play hard until the end. Of course as teams are mathematically eliminated they start to cruise and play more of the younger guys, but to give up when in theory you still have a chance is for losers.

    Beatles Poll

    I was just wondering how different a line up of John, Paul, George, and a drum machine would have been?
  17. G&T making another post, welcome back
  18. Quiet couple of days around my casa
  19. QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 16, 2009 -> 12:21 AM) I finally blocked all Mafia Wars invitations. It sucks having a name beginning with A, I get too many f***in invites. All the cool kids are playing Mafia Wars, smoking, drinking, and having sex. But if your not cool . . .
  20. Northsiders and Southsiders can agree on the Bulls, Hawks, and Bears
  21. Chicago, still my kind of town . . .

    Beatles Poll

    It is always fun to start a drummer debate. All the "way too into crowd" start quoting obscure drum tracks that 99.9% of the public doesn't notice and songs they never listen to. /ducks again
