    WDTV/ Roku Streamers

    Can't really comment on WD TV, but I'm pretty sure that a Roku can do more or less what you're asking of it.

    Woo, Dubnyk to Nashville for Matt Hendricks. I thought Dubnyk had what it took to be a starter, but he has been fucking awful this year. I'm not so sure I like taking Hendricks for him, though. I mean it's nice to get something for him instead of letting him walk as a UFA in the off season, and...

    Skiing/Snowboarding Thread

    Only been through Jackson in the summer on a motorcycle trip. A handful of friends have gone in the winter though, and they all said that the skiing/boarding/terrain there is pretty awesome. I'd like to make it down there one of these years.

    I dunno, is that really any different than talking up a chick at the bar, a coffee shop, at work or school? Came across this article posted on another website:Man Poses as Woman on Online Dating Site; Barely Lasts Two Hours I for one find that article completely shocking and hard to...

    SimCity

    Yeah, it really depends what you're after. SC4's gameplay is getting pretty dated, but on the other hand I find that the depth of the gameplay is a lot deeper than CitiesXL. On the other hand, the city building tools in XL are a lot better, with curved roads and the like, a better regional...

    I actually get angry when I am forced to watch BBT, it's just so fucking bad. None of the jokes are ever even remotely funny. It's just fucking terrible. And yet I am frequently surprised that people I know and respect react with disbelief and disagreement when BBT comes up in conversation and I...

    Investing

    My money's all in index ETFs, a split between iShares for their Canadian equity and bond funds, and Vanguard for US/international stuff. My return was 22.03% in 2013, at about 95% equities. Dragged down a bit by the slower Canadian markets, which are about 40% of my portfolio. My returns were...

    Yeah, I had an old 32" CRT mounted from the ceiling in my bedroom. Took 5 guys to get the fucking thing down, and it was touch and go on whether it got dropped. Took it to a recycling depot, no one wanted that shit.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    And so the wise alternative is to remain in a loveless marriage with someone that you slowly grow to resent and hate? His situation sucks, but it sounds like he and the soon to be ex-wife are doing the best they can to make things work out as well as they can for everyone. I don't see any better...

    I'm just working my way through this show, about halfway through the third season. And yeah, there's a pretty massive fall-off in quality evident in the third season. Dunno if you can blame it on writing, or if it's just a simple matter of the show getting stale because it's in such a limited...

    Not much story. I went heli skiing over the holidays, had my bud snap a picture while it was taking off with another group. The two of us always wear our Oilers jerseys when we go mechanized skiing, I'm not really sure why. I had actually forgotten mine, but my bud had a spare!

    Yeah, it's pretty bad these days, some webpages when you go to download something (ironically, sometimes for malware scanning software) there's like 15 other "download" links on them.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well, I think it's a combination of factors. Yes, our current society and culture has programmed most of us to view marriage as the inevitable next/last step in a relationship. We've been dating for over a year, she's moved in, we're happy, ergo we should probably get married. Second, my friends...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    heh, sorry, I thought it was fairly obvious that the whole thing wasn't really intended to be a serious discussion or negotiation between us. I only mentioned it to demonstrate that at least to this point, there's really nothing contentious going on in the relationship. But that's to be...

    Burke is a pompous asshole who thinks that he's some sort of fucking genius. It's no surprise that he'd say that kind of shit, he doesn't know what diplomacy or tact are. I think that Canada made a mistake leaving Hall off the roster, personally. Yes, Canada's roster is wicked deep, but the...

    I dunno, if anything it makes me feel awesome about the state of my relationship! The most contentious issue right now is that she wants a dog.
