Mostly penises. Just me?

Cap issues aside, the Sedin's are 32, Kesler is 28 but injury prone as is Booth, Bieksa is 31, Hamhuis is 30, Ballard is 30 and way the fuck overpaid, and they have next to know good prospects coming up. They have to win this year and/or try to hold together the core for next year, and then...

I only ever mix my rye, and try to stay the fuck away from it due to blackouts, so I can't really comment on what "good" rye is. Other well known brands are Royal Reserve (likely not very good, but every bottle has a maple leaf sticker! Popular in high school for that reason), Gibson's, and of...

Yup. Also qualifies if it sublimates. Heh, for cooking, mechanical/heating stuff, and hot tubs I go by F. For weather I go by C. Us Canadians are all goofy that way. Ask a typical Canadian how tall they are or how much they weigh, and at least out West, 95% will answer in feet, inches and pounds.

Yeah, you might be right on Gagner, I wasn't watching too closely. On the Kassian goal though, that was the entire line. Everyone was out of position. 4 guys were watching Sedin in the corner, both D in no-man's land covering no one. Fistric didn't play because he's only had a few practices...

Yeah, but it's a dry cold!

I thought Yakupov looked pretty mediocre, actually. Very hesitant when he had the puck, and terrible in our own end. The second goal was a complete clusterfuck of broken coverage in our own end, and he was a big part of that. Overall he looked nervous. He'll learn though, not worried about it...

Yeah, I figured I'd go with a BenQ next time around. Although I'd really like to know how/why then panels are shitting out on me. Doesn't look like an LCD is an option, unfortunately.

I wouldn't fuck a separatist on principle.

Whoops, actually, apparently the LROC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_R...ssance_Orbiter) did snap some shots good enough to show equipment, flags, and tracks on the moon. http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LR...llo-sites.html http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-19050795...

Even Hubble can't take pictures with high enough resolution to identify the pieces left behind:http://stupendous.rit.edu/richmond/a...ar_lander.html Otherwise no, we don't have satellites going "near" the moon because it's about 385,000 km away. Most satellites orbit anywhere from 500km to...

Well yeah. But I still know it's there!

What do you mean when you say physics? Theoretical stuff like relativity, quantum mechanics and string/brane theory? Or practical stuff like statics/dynamics? If the first, then you might want to try one of Brian Greene's books like The Elegant Universe or The Fabric of the Cosmos. The...

I read a similar article recently for Canuckistan, and the way they worded it implied that people who got the vaccine were 50% less likely to contract the flu or exhibit symptoms.

Anyone making a LCD or Plasma in the 100" range that isn't ridiculously expensive? My projector is on it's last legs, the panel inside it is fucked with lots of blotches and miscolorations. This is the second one it's happened to. Not consistent burn in from a game UI or sports ticker, either...

I donated to your mom.

We sat down again this morning, and everyone was a lot calmer. We explained to him where we were coming from in terms of him thinking that he should get two bonuses despite all the discussion in the past week about him being on equal terms with the other 3 guys and so on. He said his main...

Oh, I also forgot to mention that our third, minority partner in the company who's been a shareholder since me and my bro were kids and is our lead foreman can't fucking stand the whiny PM, and only agreed to go along with him getting profit sharing or equity because we asked him to. The other...

So, over the past year or two a couple of our more senior or key employees have come forward wanting profit sharing or outright ownership in the company. To make a very long story short, one guy in particular has always been extremely demanding not just in that regard, but also for his base...

Girlfriend is calling me "darling" in text convos a lot now. Is this the 50's or something?

Good luck and a barely functioning left testicle?

Shit. I just hired one this morning.

Suck it.

This is one thing that I think is so bizarre about the US, that people see advertisements on TV and in magazines etc for prescription drugs and then run to the doctor to ask for it. What the fuck? Why is a layman requesting a specific drug? Should be not be letting the professional diagnose his...

Wouldn'thave

Ballsy. And given how warm it is right now, dude must like getting hella dirty.

Yeah, I spent 20 minutes going through my Steam list and categorized my games like this: Finished - self explanatory, if it's a story/linear game that I've finished the main storyline, it goes in there. Most strategy games will go there once I've finished the main campaign and if I don't...

Gayness confirmed.

Not really a fan of them as a force of habit, but yeah, the single picture I saw looked pretty sexy. Dollar vs. performance wise they've always been pretty tough to beat. Yeah I'm the same way. My 2001 330xi was pretty good for rattles and squeaks. When it was under warranty I had them take care...

Been above freezing here for 24 hours and supposed to be for another couple days. It's not overly unusual, but it's pretty unseasonable. Kinda want it to drop well back below freezing because the roads are a fucking mess, going through a gallon of wiper fluid a day.

Meh, when I say "no profit" I mean we've only made about 700k in total those past 3 years, instead of 1-2 million per year which is the average. The construction market has been shit here for awhile if you're not in to heavy industrial stuff in the oil sands, everyone else we talk to in our...

I don't know that ALL weather satellites are at geosynchronous orbit either, actually. Some may be lower.

I think there was a fourth gun left in the car, shotgun or rifle or something.

What do satellites and cell phones or other telco networks have to do with each other? All that shit is land based due to the distances involved with geo-sync satellites. edit: ah, my bad, didn't see that it was addressed It's not solely about power. It's about distance. Geo-synchronous orbit...

Audi's are way worse for overall quality/reliability. Beware.

http://bostonglobe.com/news/science/...rKM/story.html Nothing new really, but further confirmation that there's probably around 17 billion Earth-sized planets in our galaxy alone. However the vast majority of those are way inside or way outside the habitable zone. Flip side to that, though...

It could well be a financial decision, or it could simply be a change in personnel somewhere up in management. Maybe the cost/benefit ratio was pretty much a wash, and whoever used to make such a decision in favor of having the flu shots moved to a new position, got fired, retired whatever and...
