OT: November 17th edition

I’ll be there for a while.

I’m going to delete all my non-real-friends soon so that I don’t have so much shit content being pushed on me.

So much more informative. Plus, I get to follow Felix.

Facebook can suck it.

It’s made by a company called La Crosse, and he says they are great to work with and the unit is very easy to set-up/use. Here is a link to their “pro” equipment page, but they sell all kinds of stuff as you can see on the website.

Opposing teams are like 66-0 when I am in attendance. Not hyperboling either. I have never been to a game where “my” team won. You can thank me for 1-3 M’s losses per year since 1991.

Though I would love to chat about it.

They’re definitely my bandwagon team this year. Bautista and Lawrie are awesome, Ricky Romero is cool, and they have a savvy GM.
Sweet video here, too

So much better than navy blue.

:(

here.

To my inexpert eyes it seems they’ve really screwed the draft over.

Happy thanksgiving, guys. Enjoy your turkey!

Either that or the Cross Check. Surly make bikes that do exactly what you want – if you’re doing more trail riding you’ll probably want the Cross Check, but the LHT is a great commuter/recreational trail bike.

You could do a day where you do the touristy shit and go to Sedona/Jerome (Jerome is really cool), then spend a day or two on the other side of I-17 near Payson and/or Show Low hunting, and then you’re only 2.5 hours from Southern Utah, 4 hours from Zion, and then there’s the Grand Canyon nearby too.

If you were to do Phoenix, you could do one day to Globe/Apache Reservoir (take SR 88 one way, it’s a dirt road but really scenic) area, one day to Sedona/Jerome, one or two days to Payson/Show Low, maybe one day over to the Havasu area. I’d try to base my operations further north though, as Phoenix is at the south end of the interesting stuff.

If you’re looking for a combination this one is really good.

but mostly on games and some new pants. Nothing really major though. Mostly underwhelmed this year.

I’ve been looking but no super deals really sticking out. Hitting refresh on Slickdeals and Techbargains every 30 minutes or so.

I got sick of having nothing happen and being bored by every character but the redneck.

I’ve given up. I almost gave up the last episode of season 1. Then I almost gave up when Darabont was fired. I’m giving up now.

I ended up getting the zipper replaced in his old one :)

It’s obviously not working in the current time slot, so if they can give it a better time slot and maybe hit the marketing before starting the second half they might see some improvement in numbers. I still think they will end up with a 4th season. Sony ownership and all that. I think my main mistake here is assuming NBC has the ability to handle something correctly.

Like, it will probably be pretty damn high.
But there’s a chance there’s just not enough of a market, and he gets underpaid.

Could you have meant deprecated?

one about his friendship with Limonta

But this seems like it might help.

At least it doesn’t seem to be an issue with Blu-rays. Even some supposedly region locked discs seem to be able to play on other region players.

I am unreasonably excited about this.

But this gives us serious credibility to at least get back to 1997-2003. It really feels like Coug alumni are the only ones that remember two rose bowls and three straight top 10 finishes.

It’ll be nice for the Cougars to feel relevant again for the first time in almost a decade at least, he said knowing his team’s own woes in that time.

And then a new “hiatus” or whatever.

But I haven’t seen any milkmaids, barns, or cows fly by yet.

And there’s massive amounts of debris in my neighborhood. I heard a lot of fire truck sirens last night as well.

Driving in the rain is just terrible. ITS DRIZZLING HONEY, STOP THE CAR, LETS JUST PUSH IT DOWN THE HIGHWAY!

Of course, the new Angels GM, seeming like a somewhat reasonable person, may simply choose not to use him.

It’s a bitch slap.

They both have merit in their timeline. But neither is worth the time involved.

I played a 3 day frisbee tournament in college where our two subs got hurt in the first match so we were playing savage the entire weekend. On top of that I slept on the floor both nights. Monday’s 8:30 lecture was hellish.

I generally have a very long fuse. When the fuse gets exceeded, I usually go one of two ways. I find someone/something to rant at or do something physical – typically I go for a run or beat on a heavy bag or something along those lines.

like the Harvard Exit or the Egyptian.

In a typical NW fall/winter, I go through at least two sets of brake pads if I commute 3-4 days a week. Road grime really chews up brake pads, and also does a number on your wheels under the brake pads as well over time. Disc brakes are more expensive up front, but they rarely need maintenance/adjustment – caliper brakes require constant adjustment as they wear – and they don’t need replacement nearly as often, and they also perform a whole lot better in wet weather.

The next time I buy a bike, it’s going to be a commuter bike with disc brakes.

USAA are amazing. I think I had friends while I was in the US who sang praises of both those two though.

I made my decision based both on their coverage/cost and also how easy they make the claims process. I’ve heard from customers that Geico can make claim filing and repairs a bit of a chore, whereas Pemco just makes it happen for you. From a body shop viewpoint, Pemco couldn’t be easier to deal with which, in turn, makes things a piece of cake as a policy holder trying to get repairs completed. Geico requires one of their appraisers to see the car to create an estimate and any additional supplemental damages will also need to be viewed. Waiting for an adjuster can take up to 48 hours, so a simple rear-ending accident can turn into a week or more to remedy a 3-day repair. With Pemco, you go get an estimate at the shop of your choice, they email the estimate and photos to a central office, and you’re ready for repairs to start the next day. Additional damage is called in by the shop and approved over the phone with photos to supplement if necessary.

Also, make sure you get rental car coverage. Many people choose not to spend the extra $3-$5 per month and are left in a lousy position once it comes time to get repairs done.

More games against non rivals? WTF?

just not as an SBN employee.
