some high school kid in New Hampshire tried to change his grades
to the reporter: he changed absences in Ferris Beueller. He changed grades in War Games, right?

I picture a scene from J-Mac’s house… J-Mac huddled over his laptop:
Mrs Mac: Honey, what are you doing?
J-Mac: working on the website babe!
Mrs Mac: it looks like youre looking up pictures of teenaged girls in bikinis
J-Mac: IT’S FOR THE ROUNDUP
April 20th, 2012 at 8:14 AM
Damn right he is. Reports of our impending demise have been greatly exaggerated.

looks pretty insane. The only nit I’d pick would be on the poker table. It’s just a normal table size that looks jazzed up. Get one with a dealer seat and a bit more leg room. And get personalized chips with your face on them that can be redeemed by your ladies.
April 20th, 2012 at 8:17 AM
That slip and slide video is amazing.
Looks like she almost broke her neck.
April 20th, 2012 at 8:18 AM
Similar to what went on in yesterday’s roundup … who is Demi Lovato and what does she do?
April 20th, 2012 at 8:21 AM

I think otter would be in the top 10 potential of animals I’d accept if I was reincarnated as an animal.
April 20th, 2012 at 9:10 AM
I’ve always wondered who is the youngest around here. Seems like the majority of the regulars is around the late 20s/early30s range. I feel like I’m one of the younger ones, but I’m only 24.

you’re doing it wrong. Picture a game day party, and she’s the drunk chick in the Bears jersey and push up bra who is screaming insults into the face of the host’s 12 year old son.
Oh, and the jersey is cut open to show the cleavage to the 12 year old, so he just sits there and takes it.

Bulls/Heat is going to be a great ECF. The rivalry and hatred is growing with each game. Both teams have a lot of talent, are the two best teams in their conference, and are relatively young. The last two seasons, including playoffs, the two teams are 6-6 with an aggregate score four points apart (1,086-1,082).

i had a flight a few months ago where i had the aisle seat, but the whole row was open. I was unbuckling my seatbelt to move to the window so i can have the whole row to stretch out and sleep and this asshole in the row behind me tosses his bag into my row and takes the seat. wtf.

I took a SW flight to New Orleans about 10 years ago. Smokeshow gets on the plane and sits a row in front of me. Random guy (good looking) sits next to her in the middle row. They’re chit chatting like they don’t know eachother. This is a short flight, like 90 minutes, at 6PM on a Thursday. By the time we’re descending into MSY she’s sitting in his lap and they are fucking tongue-locked. Damnedest thing I’ve seen on a flight.

April 20th, 2012 at 9:54 AM
get the Bose QC15, or whatever their $300 over the ear ones are. work great on a flight, great when cutting the lawn.
they are the best noise cancelling ones, some of the louder talker or high pitched noises get through, but it blocks out the sound of the air recycling and the engine noise and i find flying to be much less exhausting.

Hell no. I put them on when I get in the car and don’t remove them until I’m on the ground in the next city. As a 6-6 man I loathe everything about flying. Taking away my earphones on a flight would be a safety risk for surrounding passengers. Let me sit here (chin-to-knees) in peace.

I think so… for musclebacks at least. If you want more similar to the G15s you have, I think the JPX800 is the way to fly. Your game is probably good enough to play the MP-52s, though.
