  1. I'd probably finally play it if it was
  2. So many good tunnels on I-70
  3. Well Bruce, when I went to Qatar and Bahrain it was Ramadan so there wasn't much going on. I was deployed in Iraq at the time and barely knew what day it was let alone what holidays were going on. We had a joke that every day was Tuesday because we worked 7 days a week in 12 hour shifts so there was never really a beginning or end to the week. Monday didn't work because there was no weekend to at least reminisce about and hump day had too much hope since it would mean you were halfway done so every day was Tuesday. Anyway, one day I randomly got offered a 4 day break to Qatar. Normally these spots are fought over and usually taken by senior enlisted and officers but I was so burned out that I didn't even think to care about why it was being offered to me so I just accepted. It wasn't until I was already on the plane did I realize everything was closed and I was pretty much resigned to stay on base the whole time I'd be gone. On the bright side my trip was extended a bit due to who cares why so I got to spend some time in Bahrain too but really all I did was putter around base and sleep... oh, and get a pedicure because the base had a spa/salon and my feet were beat from wearing boots 18/7
  4. I hated the bugs, the food, the humidity (I looked it up when I was there and I'm pretty sure my phone said it was Jell-O outside), and most of the people I met. Probably the least friendly state I've been too
  5. If we are extending it to countries then I've been to 12 including the US and my favorite was probably Costa Rica Least favorite... I dunno, maybe Bahrain or Qatar because I actually have some pleasant memories of Iraq
  6. I've not been to as many as GD and way less than kgambit, only 23 here. I've lived in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, New York, and North Carolina My favorite is probably Arizona and my least favorite is also probably Mississippi
  7. Went to some Italian place at the Broadmoor hotel in Colorado Springs for dinner. It was nice but smokey since something somewhere is on fire
  8. I find it hard to be embarrassed for something like this that I have no control over and doesn't involve me in any way Is it sad? Sure, and I'm sorry they feel that way but I'm not worried about it and nor have I given it another thought after I posted it I do get embarrassed for other people in awkward situations and even in movies sometimes so there's that
  9. No, why would it? If they said be careful in interactions with ShadySands then still probably no but that would at least have a chance
  10. Would love if Guy Pearce is in it so that we can have a movie with a female actor named Gal and male actor named Guy I'm obviously easily amused
  11. The Bahamas warns its young male residents traveling to the U.S. to be careful in police interactions
  12. Speaking of group think http://www.vox.com/2015/5/28/8661977/race-police-officer
  13. I stand corrected In that case then I agree with GD that they may have some legal trouble heading their way for their actions. But you can't or shouldn't be allowed to legally punish them for their beliefs, no matter how misguided you find them.
  14. True story. We once threw every fish we caught back then went to Red Lobster afterwards That was the laziest day ever
  15. I wouldn't stay there and would hope my friends wouldn't do give them business either Beyond that I wouldn't care Edit- I'm not sure if they've refused service so much as just given their opinions on the matter. People are allowed to be idiots PS you can mix and apricot and a peach. I believe it's called a peachcot PPS I shouldn't exist in their view of the world and I still don't care
  16. Runs fine for me in Win10 as well Though I've only run the high level mini campaign since upgrading but I can't imagine it would make a difference
  17. There is a small brewery right next(-ish) to Mile High Stadium called Little Machine that does some pretty good dark beers. The selection is always rotating but it's usually a little too heavy on the IPAs, which I don't care for, but otherwise it's pretty good. Cheapish too
  18. Do they have another person? I haven't been following it but the first guy is dead already
  19. This was actually a pretty good article
  20. I didn't know bombs were an option for the police
  21. I would like a ceiling fan or really any fan but my wife has this weird thing about wind blowing on her. Le sigh. When we moved in I had to go around the house and angle all the air vents so they don't blow directly at us
  22. Instant kills at 3 pips, no?
  23. Probably because he's fairly injury prone That said, he'd be welcome on my team anytime
  24. I'm just sad he wouldn't come to Denver for more money (but even we wouldn't give him a 3rd year from what I've read) Sure he's past his prime but it hurts right in the feels when nobody wants to play for you
