PrintToday pdb heads to Ohio through Indiana to see his wife.
NOLA should be nearing the end of her journey from Louisiana to the great Northwest.
Faux has been on the road a lot lately, but I'm not sure if he is back home yet or not.
Who will be traveling for Thanksgiving next week?
A few of the Off-Topic regulars will be traveling to the Renton Highlands tonight for bowling and socializing.
Other topics:
Thank God that Scholarship Poll is over. I hate seeing the worst in people and that showed it. Kudos to Dave for staying above the fray and showing what a great person he is.
How the hell did my roll of toilet paper make it out of the plant with no perforation?
So Thingray was finally outed by deapseadv. Good sleuthing Kermit.
Is the world ending soon now that Coach had a comment go green?

I'll be travelling up to Stuttgart for Thanksgiving
to spend it with an Army buddy. We’ll likely spend the rest of the weekend stumbling drunk in Munich, hooray!!
Tonight the bowling theme is The Price is Right.
Two in the Plinko, one in the stinko.

Wow...anyone around?
Or is it just that no one wants to respond to a diary posted by a noted ex-member of the Hitler Youth?
Sec 108’s first band in high-school played up-tempo versions of Horst Wessel Lied and other nazi anthems… I believe they were called PanzerFaust or something. I’m not making this up; I read about it once.
I'm here - bouncing between work, LL, and MC.
Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.
The band name was actually Barking Aardvarks
marc w is just pissed because we refused to hang with a kid who had a hair lip and constant nasal drip.
Yeah, they kept saying I was impure
and would pollute the race.
No hard feelings, pal.
No worries, Marc.
Someday you may be asked to portray Johnny Cash in a film.

I'm really not sure I like this term "outed".
Makes it sounds like something very different happened (not that there’s anything wrong with that).
Man do I love midgets.
So when I show up at her place and she's still in curlers, I'm holding you responsible.
Like it’s anyone’s fault my memory has more holes than Sexon’s swing. My search techniques suck, I know I brought it up a couple days ago.
Wow, nice timing I was just heading out the door.
I had to wait for the kids to do some business or I would have been there by now. Sorry to hear you’re sick.
You had better be there tonight.
Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.
I understand being sick,
but I hope you can make it tonight as well RC. I’m sure Jeanuts would like to meet you.
Man do I love midgets.
I'll be there, for a little while.
No carousing or drinking for me, but I will get some hugs in for sure.
So you're just showing up to make everyone else sick?
;)
Man do I love midgets.
But I'm just getting over being sick.
Can I have a week or so of good health first? I actually slept through the night for the first time in weeks last night. No 1:00am coughing fit!

No problemo, I should have been there last week.
Something held me up then, I think it was a combination of things. I was on the road, actually bought you the americano, then realized it was too close to nap time and I was just being stubborn.
So, anyone care to beat this for freakiness?

If I remember I’ll grab it before heading to the bowling alley.

I can't make it tonight...
…so I’m telepathically sending a bottle of spiced rum.
But RC only gets to drink it AFTER she drinks the elderberry tea that she needs to drink. After downing some elderberry extract. And dissolving some of these under her tongue:
(Normally I’d just suggest the individual doses of Kali B, Gelsemium and Allium cepa, but this has all of it plus a few other things — Belladonna for fever, etc…)

This will be the first Thanksgiving I haven’t worked in years. I don’t know what to do.

Near the print screen/pause/break buttons
To the right of the function keys on many keyboards.
I just pressed it a few times. Nothing. Tried scrolling; it worked fine. This button lies.
I also tried concentrating really hard on my tea mug and then pressing the ‘break’ button. I wasn’t really expecting a whole “Scanners” style explosion, but c’mon. It did fuck all.

on the old Acorn Electron it effectively restarted the machine.

I never had an Acorn Electron
Didn’t Acorn make the BBC Micro? Or was that some other Acorn?
Tell me you used to have that Donkey-Kong clone “Killer Gorilla” – my wife’s always talking about that, and how the name “Donkey Kong” makes no sense whatsoever and thus Killer Gorilla must have been the original game.
Absolutely!
Had both, a BBC Micro too, and the games on it were amazing.
Killa Gorilla was definitely one of them. And yes, it’s DK except I’d never heard of DK at the time.

if this isn’t deserving of the $10,000 scholarship, I don’t know what is
I'm going to have to wait until I get my paycheck next week
but I’ll definitely send something Dave’s way.
Same here, end of month Dave gets a donation.
I may mail it directly to him though because I hate Paypal with a passion.
The whole electronic transfer process makes me feel retarded.
I thought I put some dough in LL’s coffers last week, but my bank statement says no. I also broke the self checkout machine at QFC recently, so there’s that.
Somehow I can see this happening to you.
You’ll be there tonight, right?

Things slowing down since the price dropped under $60?
Some of my friends in the GOM are scrambling for work right now. The oil companies aren’t bothering to restart some the wells damaged by this years storms, not enough profit per barrel.
I'm amazed they have wi-fi there to be honest.
But you still have time to make bowling if you hustle.

If I still lived in Seattle I would soooooo be there.
I’m still pissed I waited until AFTER I moved back to Alaska to stop lurking.

So iTunes had High Fidelity available for 5 bucks.
I thought “what the hell.” I forgot how good that movie was. Is John Cusack one of the most underrated actors of his generation?
Fear the NPE
I saw an interview where he said he did 2 movies for him and then 1 for Hollywood.
Or maybe it was the other way around. Never enough John Cusack.
I'll agree with that.
Starting with “Better Off Dead”.

Children's Hospital is ramping up their research departments big time.
Think my wife said something about doubling or tripling the numbers of people. They’ve purchased approx a city block downtown, more property at Magnuson, and are making a massive addition to the hospital itself. Might be worth look, they have grants in an insane number of different areas.
IT department is growing pretty rapidly, they are turning into a big Microsoft software lab.

Let's just say thank God I make decent money
Because I know how to spend it. My wife is not a big fan of my spending habits.

blast up to Everett to get Jeanuts and our gear, then maybe stop for a quick drink before heading south.

I say head south early and we can pre-funk in the bar at Hillcrest

Well that was fun
So I woke up this morning at 11:29, and I started freaking out because I have a test in 1 minute, and missing it isn’t an option. So I jump out of bed, throw on some clothes, race to my bike, sprint to school, get there in 5 minutes, go to the door, and as I’m about to open it, I realise my class isn’t in there. I check the time and I’m just confused, because my classmates should be in there taking a test. So I walk away from the door, and remember the class I have a test in acctually started at 12:30. So I still have a half an hour to screw around on campus while looking like a goober, and I’m still wheezing from the bike ride over.

it worked out better than you originally thought! :)

We were renting a house in Wedgewood for example. My wife said she didn’t want to live in a suburb of sameness. I took her outside and started pointing out how 50+ years ago Wedgewood was cookie cutter. Just all the years of additions and landscaping, people put their personalities into it.
I’m a big fan of renovating some of these older buildings, especially pre-40’s. The materials are tremendous, most of the framing timber is better than modern wood used for finishing work. A lot of this new stuff is going to look like garbage real quick.
You are right
Plus I like the charm of the older bungalow type houses and there are a lot of things that you can do during renovation to modernize, but not lose “the look”
AKA Thingray's Fiancee (not a Midget)
I kind of like these new craftsman style homes.
I’m not sure but I think they may be what people are calling McMansions though. Some of them are pretty tastefully done. In my opinion.
Or you could just by an actual old "craftsman" home.
The old electrical and plumbing always scares me though.
Man do I love midgets.
I wanted one pretty badly.
Prices in Seattle just didn’t drop soon enough. Historically the Fed raises interest rates in time like these, and they usually make an announcement that they are planning on raising the rates at the next Fed meeting. That was our trigger to buy, then the SOB’s left the rates flat (August or so). Juked us.
My wife and have a great old craftsman style home in Spokane
That we renovated. The plumbing, wiring and heating system was done before we bought it. We did other up dates, flooring, the entire kitchen et al.
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
I am jealous
I hope to have one someday!
AKA Thingray's Fiancee (not a Midget)
We don't live in it. A few months ago we moved down to the bay area.
No it’s a rental and likely getting trashed. We’ll see when we go back for thanksgiving.
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
Hopefully you have good tenants who take pride in where they live.
Man do I love midgets.
Flooring, kitchens, etc I don't mind.
But I don’t care for renovating plumbing, and I HATE electrical work.
Man do I love midgets.
Bad electrical causes fire,
and fire scares me.

I am glad we agree on this!
AKA Thingray's Fiancee (not a Midget)
yeah I would never do plumbing or electrical. It was already done when we bought it.
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
The perfect project house!
Man do I love midgets.
Actually
Some of them are absolutely beautiful. There are areas where they have built these types of homes where they have had several different builders with lots in the neighborhood, so you have quite a bit of difference in the features and architecture and materials used.
AKA Thingray's Fiancee (not a Midget)
Right after the midgets

These drunk subthreads are wonderful.
Every day it’s like a tiny bit of a mega-drunkpost, rationed into nice bite-sized little portions.
Keeps things beeter
and they are entertaining. I’ll nbe good for a couple per week

It's simple, really.
Just be yourself. The power is within you, bubbling just under the surface. You have jackassery that surpasses mine by far, yet you hold it back.

Fallout isn't so bad, least as far in as I am
And you certainly don’t come across as “old.”
Jack and coke is much better than Rum and coke
I’m completely middle ground on the Apple Cup, so whatever to it

I will not be satisfied unless WSU wins 2-0 in overtime by sacking Ronnie Fouch for a safety.
This is the correct ending.
Like 10
This game should avg less points per hour than any game before it. Like, I want this game to last 7 and a half hours, but have a total of 9 points scored or something

Fallout is awesome.
I’m not “old,” I know. I’m just trying to stand up for RC.
Whiskey is better than rum, but I have a fondness for rum after reading Hunter Thompson’s “The Rum Diary,” one of my favorite books.
Fuck UW.
Disclaimer:
I got into UW and didn’t go. I should regret this, but WSU had the better program for what I wanted to do, so I win.
Good for you
Not a bad school to turn down, so you can doubly root against them

WSU gets a lot of shit.
And a lot of it deserved, but it’s not a 30,000-person frat house like people want to make it out to be.
As a whole, it’s not UW, but there are a lot of smart students there, and a ton of good professors. If you know what you wnat to do — as I did — you can do very well with a degree from WSU.
They do have some very good programs there

WSU has the reputation it has because of where it is.
I’m a snobby urbanite but I thinks it’s silly that’s it’s looked down upon simply because it’s on the east side. Having worked in the U-District for two years I can testify to how fucking crazy UW kids are capable of getting.
by Aaron Campeau on Nov 21, 2008 11:56 PM PST up reply actions
I held that impression until I went there.
And WSU is not Harvard, but it’s not what people think it is.
Fuck UW it is
You’ve convinced me to root for them. I had friends go to both schools out of my grad class, so I could go either way. But, I’m down for WSU, since I have visited the campus and had more fun there than I did at UW with friends

I love Seattle. And I try not to be too illogical in my hatred toward the Huskies.
I grew up on the West Side, and I was a Husky fan until I went to college. I could have gone to UW, but I wanted to get away, and the UW journalism program was in shambles when it came time for me to make the decision.
I will hate the Huskies every time the Apple Cup rolls around, but I do respect UW. I was [this close] to going there.
My stance on UW
I’ve rooted them for most of my life. I doubt I will go to school there but I’m definitely not going to WSU so might as well root for the Huskies.

Say what you will, I actually watched the games.
I saw maybe 20 this year, and didn’t make a trip out to see one in person.
It's hard to convince people to let you eat them if you're an asshole. - Thingray
I was there when our season imploded this year.
Pick the AB:
Erik Bedard gives up a home run to the second batter he faces
or
JJ Putz allows Hamilton to go deep
Thus, worse season this year than last.
It's hard to convince people to let you eat them if you're an asshole. - Thingray
But we failed so spectacularly!
Eh I really don’t want 2008 to repeat itself every season. I’m just still stinging from that 2007 September tailspin.
But HOPE?!

I would certainly opt for '08 over, say, '06.
Awful is much better than kinda mediocre. But even a team that stays in contention through smoke and mirrors is better than not being in contention at all.
by Aaron Campeau on Nov 22, 2008 12:14 AM PST up reply actions
At least I felt SOMETHING.
There is nothing worse than being out of contention in April with a boring team.

Well...We had uh...
We had Corco! The groundballingist pitcher ever!
I am excited about next season
because we’re either going to be competitive, or we’re going to have an entire roster of players like Corco to be happy about.
by Aaron Campeau on Nov 22, 2008 12:24 AM PST up reply actions
I'm happy losing a bunch of games with players like Corco.
But Jesus F Christ it was so boring to watch Richie, Turbo, Silva, Batista, and Washburn lose and look like flailing old idiots at the same time.
Yes.
I can deal with bad with hope for better. I cannot deal with bad and old and boring.

Putz-->Hamilton was way worse.
The Bedard HR was just Michael Young putting a good swing on a good pitch. As soon as Hamilton connected it felt like someone had punched me in the junk.

Kind of, but given a choice between '07 and '07 I will take '07 seven days a week and twice on Sundays.

Hm that's an odd mix for Rock Band DLC next week
The Killers, Yngwie Malmsteen, Soundgarden and Lamb of God
Yngwie, eh? Sounds interesting.
Lamb isn’t bad, and Soundgarden is always ok. I still need to snatch up DK from last week’s. Too bad my 4 year old “accidentally” wasted my MS points on a couple of shitty games that we’ll never play

So there's a replay of the Hornets/Chunder game on ESPN right now.
Callabro is doing the PBP. I bet he feels so conflicted.
I feel really bad for him
That guy gave everything he had to the Sonics for so long, and then those assholes took it from him. Now he’s stuck with national PbP for NBA games, and then soccer this season. Terrible

I heard him on a KJR interview right after the Sonics move became official.
