Drowsy really loves that clip.
-
Wait, people actually watch the Oscars?
-
I don't know breakdown by country, but Bruce was talking about Africa in general. Yeah, the point would still stand. That's a pretty long way to float a raft.
-
Are there a lot of South Africans coming to the US illegally?
-
I underestimated him, he smashed his mark in 1 game. It came down to the wire, but the Warriors clinched a playoff berth.
-
Dr. Pepper or Mr. Pibb would work I thought about that, but my wife hates the stuff and I know I'll need to share. Granted she tends to drink her fireball with hard ciders. edit: Hot chocolate sounds intriguing. edit 2: Cherry pepsi works decent. I really need to learn more about mixed drinks, they are a mystery to me.

The Cowboys branded themselves as America's team, which is a great way to get most America to make fun of you. For awhile, they were the Yankees of football, but the Patriots have owned that title for awhile now.
-
Was in the mood for a mixed drink, so I picked up some fireball. Now I'm trying to decide what to mix it with. I have a cherry pepsi, I think I'll try that. Should have got rumchata to go with it.
-
So you read that article and you got the impression she is a felon a thousand times over?
-
Yeah, but to be fair, your sources tend to be terrible.

I am pretty shocked Christie endorsed Trump for the candidacy.
-
I'm just enjoying how he will smash his 3 pt. mark again in about 2 games. He is going to set a gaudy mark this year, it might be up there with Wayne Gretzky's untouchable points numbers.

Well card counting isn't illegal or anything, it is just frowned on. If I ever made it to the point of getting interest from the pitboss, I'd consider that a success. I tried a few of those online drills to see if I could keep track, it's extremely hard unless you have a good head for numbers. In addition you need a decent bankroll and all it really does is give you the edge instead of the house. You turned $3 into enough for dinner and a ride? That's a pretty big win margin. I'm pretty happy if I win enough for a dinner, but usually it's more like win $20 here, lose $20 there, slink away after 20 minutes.

I'm curious if Ballast Point will continue to be as inventive now that they are owned by Coors. I hope so. All the San Diego places seem to charge more than the usual. Some are worth it, of course.

I just read a book on Bob Stupak, it was a great read and it started with his dad running dice games in Pittsburgh. Honestly I do very little gambling. I love the idea of winning some money, but chicken out very quick. I go for the alone time with the missus, the great food and drinks, and the spas. Like Gromnir, I used to be thoroughly uninterested in Vegas and thought it was tacky and a money pit. But then I went with my wife for a hockey tourney, and I realized you can get great rooms for great deals, experience a wide selection of amazing dining options for cheaper than I get in San Francisco, and there isn't a kid in sight (for the most part.) As a person who has kids and works with kids all day long, going to a place geared completely towards adults is a huge escape.
-
With Disneyland out of the way, I'm focused on planning a romantic trip with the Missus to Vegas in April. I've got a flight booked, fancy room picked out, couple massage planned, and dinners reserved. I did have a brief moment of insanity and think about booking this exclusive dining experience called e by Jose Andres. http://www.yelp.com/biz/%C3%A9-by-jos%C3%A9-andr%C3%A9s-las-vegas-3 It sounds amazing, but $500 is a bit steep for one night.
-
What-evs.
-
I did a quick Google search for that, but didn't turn up anything - mind giving a link or quick rundown on this "story mode"? I can't stand the combat mechanics in PoE at all, so I'm curious... As explained on the update page: So it just gives you a pretty decent advantage in encounters.
-
I am loving the Story mode for Pillars of Eternity. Make combat quick and easy so I can focus on characters and story? Yes please.

Why do people watch/love "Let's play..." videos?
Hurlshort replied to Heijoushin's topic in Computer and Console
I'm surprised by how popular they are, but my kids seem to love to watch some of them. I think it is generational. -
No they aren't, since 9/11 the USA has always been the ultimate target for Islamic extremists. But to target the USA is much harder for groups like ISIS due to the logistics and distance and also as I mentioned the USA has very effective security mechanism's and information gathering that prevent these attacks...people just arent aware of it. So I am referring to attacks that were prevented. You will see from this link that 40 attacks have been prevented since 9/11 and this link is from 2011..so I am confidant that no other country has been targeted for extremist attacks this much since 2001 including any Muslim country? http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2011/09/40-terror-plots-foiled-since-9-11-combating-complacency-in-the-long-war-on-terror Nope, Volourn is entirely correct. Your chances of being involved in any type of terrorist attack in the US are incredibly slim. 40 attacks in 15 years in a country of this size? Color me unimpressed. I risk my life way more every day I get on the freeway to drive to work.

So clearly Trump will be choosing Bruce as his running mate.

So it took me awhile, but I warmed up to Disneyland on day 3. Yes, it was crowded and expensive, but the Indy ride was amazing ans I'm obsessed with these pins. My best b=meal was at the Jazz Kitchen in downtown, some of the best food I've had since visiting Louisiana a couple summers back.
