Kid Gleason Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 QUOTE(The Critic @ Nov 19, 2007 -> 02:26 PM) I'm with ya on skiing. I bet I could do it if I wanted to, but I've seen enough skiing injuries to figure it's not worth it to me. Well, IMO, it's just a lot of work to get back to where you started from.

True, but once you got to the top of the hill, it would have been faster to ski down than to walk back down. Unless you fell............which you would have.

Was having problems with urination for about a week. Nothing showed up in a sample, so I got the old "turn, cough, has anyone checked your prostate? bend over". At least he was gentle. He thinks its a case of prostatitis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Nov 20, 2007 -> 05:52 AM) You have slipped on the ice and landed on your ass before though, right? That's all my one encounter with "ice skating" was. I went surfing for the 1st time ever last weekend. Was using an 8' board, and I proceeded to fall off so many times when I stood up, and fell onto the sand in the water many times. Was quite funny at the time, now I have a few good bruises on my body which ain't so good. I will definitely be trying again though. I was able to stand up for about 10-15 secs without falling which I figure is pretty good for a 1st go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggliopipe Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I've got a long ass ride home tomorrow for Thanksgiving (~15-16 hours). I need a good audiobook suggestion, preferably fiction. Hook it up, friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know which are available on audiobook, but lately, I've been on the best run of books I can remember in a long long time. 4 in a row, various genres, all really great and I highly recommend them. Not sure what genres you like - some of these may not apply. Here they are, in the order I read them... --Final Harry Potter Book by JK Rowling --Blood and Thunder by Hampton Sides --No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy --The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold Enjoy.

The pop up seems to work better for most people. Once you get the hang of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there when I was 13, but I was in full "I'm too cool for this s***" mode at that point in my life, so I didn't let myself enjoy it. Now though, the very first step is to go get my embroidered mouse ears and not take them off for the rest of my 8 days. F**k YEAH!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxy Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Fudge, fudge, fudge, fudge!!!!!! After 3 months of waiting I finally have a meeting with my pre-lims committee today (which I just learned of) and of course (OF COURSE) I am wearing the most inappropriate low cut top (because I figured no one would come in today so I didn't do laundry). CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! Should I wear the clashing cardigan? Hold papers in front of my chest? Of course I also didn't wear a coat because it is unseasonably warm. AGH!
