  1. I think that's on the tour. I've heard great things too.
  2. You do realize charts 3 and 5 (at least) show the economy tanking in 2008 and stabilizing in 2010, right?
  3. Friends' townhouse up in the Adirondacks (near Old Forge): snowshoes, food, beer, a couple bars, and midnight sledding with 10 great people.
  4. Awesome!
  5. Directly in front of the centre ice camera. :)
  6. Touring thru the Northern part (including the River Kwai, heh). Doing a side trip to Cambodia to Angor Wat.
  7. Girlfriend is in Mexico, I'm in Buffalo.
  8. Honeymoon: Booked Destination: Thailand
  9. FWIW, there's a Nook app for Mac, PC, Web, iDevices, and Android devices. http://www.barnesand...-apps/379003593 It may disappear in time, but you'd hope that if they did kill off the service they'd make provisions for unlocking the books or something. I believe nook is using Adobe Digital Editions under the hood which I've heard there's ways around. ;) I too like having actual books around though, so I know what you mean. that being said, I have a few books that I want to read but it is almost an annoyance that I have to bring the book with me as opposed to my reader when I'm packing light.
  10. That's an ongoing discussion. :) It's a memoir but there's stretching of the truth.
  11. I'm going to plug a friend's book, "Conversations with a Motorcycle", by Jack Riepe. Great, funny book about riding and places where I bike can take you. I haven't finished it, but I'm loving it. It's self-published and selling very well, it's being kept in-stock at some book stores in NYC. But you can't buy it on Amazon or other big places. http://jackriepe.blogspot.com/
  12. That's her office phone, the cell is Pennsylvania 6-5000.
  13. Well, there's roughly 44% of the population that will never vote for a Democrat. :)
  14. Other than that slight uptick a couple weeks ago, I would have put money on no season since early November.
  15. Hahaha.
  16. You're thinking of Rush, not Newt. Someday we'll all celebrate Rushmas, and Rush Hashanah for the Jews. (That's stolen from a song, I'm not that clever. :))
  17. Should have asked the dude on the left about "They shall not shave their heads or let their locks grow long; they shall surely trim the hair of their heads." - Ezekiel 44:20
  18. I'd be surprised if there was any traction before a 41-game season becomes untenable and they're risking losing out on the sponser dollars again. That makes what, mid-January? I don't think it was a coincidence that all the movement a few weeks ago was just before the reasonable deadline for having a 60-game (3/4) season.
  19. Baja Fresh carnitas tacos. Mmmm.
  20. I think that's been disproved as Morgan Freeman, but a great sentiment nonetheless.
  21. Soccer has a way-lower entry cost than hockey, especially in non-cold areas. Sneakers and a ball. Plus, the stadiums are often bigger and the tickets are cheap.
  22. I'd be 100% shocked if your cable company isn't selling the stats on what everyone is watching via their digital cable box.
  23. I'm guessing it's more about the individual than a particular cultrue. Some people love being thrown into something completely different, some people want to do the same thing every day of their lives.
  24. Sly Fox's is solid too, but be warned the spices are pretty forward.
  25. They were less nuts before the copyright on Steamboat Willie was about to expire.
