    I like archery. I told Woldan a while back it was the purest form of marksmanship. I always wanted a custom made ash recurve bow. I have a Bear Kodiak recurve but it's fiberglass, meh. I also have a Bowtech Evolution which is my opinion is just a marvel of engineering.

    Well, the upshot is I seriously doubt there will ever be another strike. I think both the MLBPA & the owners know the game would not survive it.

    Well, I'm a Rays, Marlins & Redbirds (Cardinals AAA) so I have plenty of reason for optimism this year. The thing I love about baseball is it's on everyday. It can be a great distraction. Plus with Walking Dead on hiatus TV is just brutal right now.

    Not sure sedatives help with depression... is a joke that Gromnir uses far too frequent around our colleagues and family who drink to excess: "there is nothing like a depressant to chase the blues away." add the traditional beer drinking that accompanies watching o' baseball and we is wondering why baseball fans is not hurling themselves from bridges like lemmings. HA! Good Fun!

    Watching the news just depresses the hell out of me these days. Is it baseball season yet?

    I hope marriages don't last past this lifetime because I've been married twice. That would make for an.... awkward time in heaven!

    I opened a fresh bottle of 11 year old Woodford Reserve small batch last night. I threw out the cap when I opened the bottle. I figured I wasn't going to need it again. I was right.

    Now that brings back memories of Gate 2 Street in Kadena Okinawa outside the Air Force Base. Club Underground.

    Now THAT is crappy. The truth is it is a cold-blooded world. Expect nothing but the worst and you'll never be disappointed. Sometimes you'll even be pleasantly surprised.

    Despite what Enoch said this thread is great! *Looks around for Green Dragons*

    Thanks for the kind thoughts everyone. I'll be fine. It was just a bummer to be let go from the company you started. Well, helped start at least. But as I completed the last of the DAS designs I figured I had about worked myself out of a job. So it wasn't a total shock. But I'm a lot better off now than the last time I was shown the door. I have a little money in the bank and a second income from my wife so it's not so bad. Last time I was dead broke with two broken legs so that really sucked.

    I had a big career setback today. It's been a long time coming and now it has happened. I haven't told my wife yet, she is working tonight. I'll tell her tomorrow. I'll deal with this tomorrow. Tonight I'm going to load up my iPod with Jimmy Buffet songs, sit in my rocking chair on the porch and get filthy drunk. It won't solve anything but nothing I was going to do tonight was going to solve anything anyway. I told someone on this board a few weeks ago that in hard times, when you have a problem that cannot be solved at that moment, your mind is your worst enemy. All you can do is distract it or shut it down all together. Tonight we opt for the latter.

    Agiel, you taste in music videos might be suspect but you get my vote for coolest new avatar.

    Yeah, that was the kind of thing that would happen to Shryke.
  16. Guard Dog
    Woah, hold on here. College guy with a borderline drinking problem? I'm betting KP has stories to tell. Since Shryke left us there is a opening for a "ladies man". Maybe KP's got the goods?

    have been hearing some attic noises of late that make us think we got squirrels living in our house. we really should call somebody to take care o' that. humane catch and release is soo expensive. perhaps release a feral cat to drive out the squirrels? ... am not serious about the cat btw, but am almost certain about the squirrels. HA! Good Fun!

    This will be a straight waste of Cameron's time. Obama refuses to even admit terrorism IS terrorism.

    Oo Did you read all the books? A smaller role he did not play. Like most of the other characters, he's in almost every scene the show has him in and then some in the books. I have, all of them several times. I said comparatively. They are getting more mileage from him on the show than in the books.

    I find the TV Jon Snow to be very irritating. I don't know if it's because I don't like Kit Harrington but the TV version seems to whine too much and is too, indecisive I guess. The book Jon Snow is much more his own man. As for Tyrion, Danereys,and Cersei, those actors OWN those parts. Particularly Peter Dinkledge.

    Actually I like the TV Varys better than the book Varys. He plays a comparatively smaller role in the books (although he is intricate in a plotline that has been simmering in the background since book1) but the TV Varys is a more "fleshed out" and interesting character.

    I Quit

    Bah, I quit playing computer games years ago. And many times since. For some reason I keep coming back.

    If it makes you feel any better 90% of all scientific research in the US is not funded directly by the government so those guys really don't have control over anything.

    This guy was in my attic, which isn't very big. He got in through a broken eave vent. I fixed it and took off the big vent and "encouraged" him to leave with a CO2 fire extinguisher.
