    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    It isn't just CNN. It is news in general. 5-10 years CNN/FOX and such will be extinct. People get their news from people more and more and with everyone in the world having video/mic recording capabilities on their phone it'll only get worse as time goes on.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    Ya the only reason I was pissed about the locals was I had it installed in late December and ended up not able to watch new years shit except on news networks. Then missed the Daytona 500 for the same BS. I may stick to cable though, I called my provider which is/was Insight who just got...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    I'm pretty fucking sure the question was does anyone here have Dish and is it worth it, not explain and justify why I hated Direct TV to Tarrant thread. In response to the local thing someone else posted, I couldn't even get distant networks. I literally had no ABC/CBS/FOX/NBC and short of...

    JJ Abrams to direct new Star Wars movie

    I would have preferred every 2 years to make them a bit better quality but whatever. Every year is entirely doable from the acting/filming and even editing/special effects. But yearly is not enough for writing and scripting imo.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    It wasn't a CS issue, it was a we can get you locals and other stuff, then weeks later tell me they have to ask permission after it was installed which was denied 40 days later and some other issues like that. The dish wasn't installed right and in 60 days I had to have the tech come out 4 times...

    Sorry to break the discussion here but I was wondering if anyone here used Dish? If so, how is it? I have Insight cable right now but they were bought out by Time Warner and I'll keep my internet through them but I am sick of the compressed 720 HD shit cable puts out. I had direct tv before...

    Ya really you need to check it every week or two. One day they may have 100's of boxes of undamaged tile, the next week that is all gone and they have windows and doors( mine has about 40 stained glass thermopane inserts right now) then that will be gone. Basically anytime you are doing a...

    North Korea goes full retard

    Following your link there I found that news source to give a lot more info than we see on US main news about NK and china's thoughts on it. I also found our first strike weapon was delivered to south korea today. http://english.chosun.com/site/data/...040401058.html

    The Walking Dead

    Has anyone ever seen them getting water or drinking water for that mater( Besides the town party ). Over long term and especially in Georgia spring/summers/fall a person would require 3-4 gallons of water each day between hydration, minimal hygiene and food preparation. X30 people now is 90-120...

    G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013)

    Sounds like it would be a 7 or so with me then. I require no plot or things to make sense in sci-fi action movies. I only require stupid one liners and things get blown up.

    North Korea goes full retard

    I have never had one fail, it uses a double O ring configuration with the name sharkbite coming from the tiny etchings that dig into the copper/pvc to ensure no pop offs. I hooked one up to my air hose one time for a homeowner in doubt and put 160 psi( highest I could go ) and left it...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    On one hand from looking at the benefit list/dates they already know exactly what they want, which took what 2-3 years at 38s to come up with. 5 Million is enough to get something going. Hell Rift was made with what 20 or 30 and it was decent enough. I agree with the above the 5 million is to...

    I think this has progressed a bit beyond the usual oh NK has made some more stupid comments. How long will it take to get the naval forces on way in place for the upcoming toaster strike?

    Ya it can be tricky, on bathrooms we actually pull the valve out pex it and then secure it to the framing. We use a lot of copper sealed nipples on the end, then cut off with a copper cutter and just use sharkbite ends to avoid soldering anymore. I never was that great at soldering and I...

    Other than the schoolbus with armor( which was part of a wall in Woodbury wasn't it ALA Road Warrior style ) did they not grab any of the other damn trucks on the road including the jeep with the 50 cal?

    Would be impossible to do pretty much as it seems it didn't end at all on TV. It's like we are missing a whole episode. Woodbury now at least is empty short of possibly 3 people including the mad gov if they even went back to it. To match the comic the Gov still needs to die and surely they are...

    I agree about Herschel. They did tell him to put it down, he looks at Carl steps forward and says take it. If he was to have reached out to grab it he would have been vulnerable. If someone with a gun on you tells you to drop a weapon you don't step closer still carrying it , even non...

    A knife is about the only tool you need when hotwiring a car. Which he has on his hand/arm whatever. You seemed quite fine to bitch and tear others apart but don't seem to like it when someone does it to you.
