A lot of them don't even need a few months. People that get shot in the arm/shoulder in particular can often just shake it off, or they are fine once you get the bullet out.

We're #1! I am not part of this statistic though. I don't like having to hold something up while having my private time, the tube sites are all shitty on mobile, and it's too hard to fast forward and rewind.

I disregard anyone's opinion that says that they walked out of a movie. It's such a drama queen thing to do that I am just not interested in the opinions of that kind of people, plus they didn't even see the damn movie. If they are lying about walking out, then I'm even less interested. It's...

The fast part is not in question. The food part might be.

Solder suckers do work, as does the braid. They are both useful depending on the situation.

There's two things people refer to as chili. There's the slow cooked chuck or round with no beans or the ground beef and beans version. The basic ingredients that I use are: Garlic Onions Salt Black Pepper Chili Powder Cumin Paprika Cayenne I just saute the onions and garlic...

I don't think you can go wrong with a nexus 7 in this price range.

I loved Tigana, mostly for the beautiful use of language. Something you don't see in fantasy that much outside of Tolkien. That said, you have plenty of fantasy and sci-fi recommendations. Looking over at my bookshelf and picking a few random good books: Lonesome Dove by Larry...

Yes. Last Sunday was the finale for both shows.

Also, you were 100% cancer free.

It covers your check ups and cleanings. That's about it.

Just get him a chromebook. Pretty tough to get a virus on that thing.

Cool Boat. 2 more badass shots from the Boston Globe site because I can't help myself.

You have good dental insurance. When I had mine done it cost $1400 and the insurance picked up $250 of it.

The only local sandwich shop here doesn't have hot sandwiches and I am really not into cold sandwiches. I will eat one if I have to but I would never choose one over a burger if I was paying more than 5 bucks for it. I don't know if Subway has gotten worse or if my standards have risen because...

This is definitely possible and I have a HTPC so I can do this on my TV. It is a less than optimal experience, but definitely doable with a wireless mouse and keyboard. Since I have a netbook next to my computer and a chromecast I pretty much never do it that way anymore though.

I don't know, but it was not what I would call a demonstration of great doctoring.

Spending 6.5 hours and getting stabbed with a big needle for $40 is worth it to you? To hell with that, that's less than minimum wage.

A doctor tried to tell my step-dad that he had diverticulitis last spring even though he told him that he had fallen off of a horse the day before the pain started. He went to another doctor and was correctly diagnosed with a broken rib :P.

One of the things I miss from California is hot pastrami sandwiches from Togo's. When I saw an ad for Subway's "Big Hot Pastrami" special right now I was excited even though I knew it wouldn't be as good as Togo's. I finally had one tonight. What a pile of dog shit. The pastrami was barely...

I think for Al Davis to reach this level it would have to come out that Sebastian Janikowski was actually the one that made the call in trading Jon Gruden.

Or they could just make the uprights 6 feet taller and there would be no question whether they are good or not.

I wear red wing boots on a daily basis but I never get more than 2.5-3 years out of them. Mine get wet fairly often though, and I probably don't oil them as much as I should. It's usually the leather cracking that does them in for me.

I don't know if we will hear much about the CES stuff until a couple days before the show. CES hasn't really had big new phone announcements lately though, they seem to prefer to do their own event the last couple years. That said, I'm due for a new phone but I'm not pulling the trigger on...

While this is technically true, the Packers had knocked the 49ers out of the playoffs like two of the previous 3 years so we were due for a break. I had just moved into a new apartment that year and I was watching the game on rabbit ears through a bunch of snow. Halfway through the game the...

I love me some Collinsworth. I feel like I learn about football listening to him. He used to hate the 49ers because they beat him in the superbowl but I think he's over that now. Actually Gruden says things that are educational as well in between his fake good old boy sayings and sounding...

I'm not saying the stereotype is true, but Samsung is a bad example. It came out in the Apple lawsuit that they actually had like a 150 page document explaining every detail of the iPhone and how to make their phones more like it.

Yeah, terrible time to be trying to fly last minute. Probably the worst week of the year.

Oh bullshit. This board has 3600 "active" members. Don't pretend that since 200 of them voted on a poll that your hands are tied.

I clicked on that link and now those shoes are showing up in my facebook ads.

Even on FOH everyone that had high numbers or low numbers was usually due to some shenanigans in the screenshots forum. Anyone that thought it was an accurate reflection of your value as a poster was an idiot. I thought Astro's thread was some harmless fun and getting butt hurt about it is...

One other aspect of the purchase is that Boston Dynamics was mostly funded by DARPA to this point, but Google said that while they will complete the contracts already in place, they will not be doing any more work for the government/military once those are finished.

The #1 strategy for success in all sports is to never lose any games but for some reason nobody does it.

Couple news stories. Chromecast in 2014: an open SDK, big international plans and maybe even new devices Tech News and Analysis Google Still Working on Chromecast SDK; More Apps Coming | News & Opinion | PCMag.com Sounds very promising although I don't get why the SDK is taking so...

They are monsters.

OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING THINGS THAT I DID NOT APPROVE OF. THIS MUST BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY.

I wonder what the hell they're going to do with this. Google buys Boston Dynamics, maker of spectacular and terrifying robots | The Verge

Great story of government competence.
