  1. is this the first time you've looked at his stat line this season? haha
  2. we actually did try to go to a cubs game when I was in chi. I did that trip on $300 and somehow thought dropping money on a ticket might fuck my budget. the scalpers never backed off their prices because it was such a nice day, so we just drank at some bar right outside wrigley.
  3. mk used to say he was going straight from work to afternoon games. honestly, even for a non-baseball fan, it sounds like a great way to unwind.
  4. you reminded me about that pitcher they took with the #1 a few years back. I remember people being completely aghast. maybe the dodgers are just unreasonable?
  5. let's brainstorm a better way to do this nomination process.
  6. we were talking about this in IM... what/who is the most valuable FCHL asset right now?it almost has to be giroux ($1, farm) or neal ($.5, farm), no?
  7. yeah, you nailed it. the music at NHL games is completely stupid. never been to an NBA or NFL game before.
  8. yeah, same. I think it was summer 2004, or something. I'm definitely within easy driving distance, and the K isn't so bad, but baseball in general is just such a bad product for smaller markets that don't have crazy-innovative front offices.uneducated baseball opinion warning
  9. we went to a royals game in 2007, secretly I just wanted to see gordon. he had been demoted to the minors by that point, or it was an injury, or something. either way, it sucked and I'm never going back.
  10. DJV lets nothing slip through the cracks.that wallpaper folder is incredible with windows 7, seriously. I've since added some more stuff, it'll probably get to be a few GB before I'm dead and gone.I've never understood all the people that collect sexy nude girl wallpapers. suddenly you gotta worry about ever showing anyone your screen.
  11. someone made a dual-monitor background of just beaker on black, then someone else added "NIGGER" in big white lettering to it. I didn't include it in my big wallpaper folder, but it's a fond memory.that and a hitler photo with apple's "think different" ad campaign applied to it.
  12. oh, by the way, I think I subscribed to JLL's youtube channel or something, because I definitely have videos of his kid riding a bike and opening christmas presents on my youtube home page. to an outsider, they're random videos of some person's kid... it probably looks weird. it doesn't bother me enough to unsubscribe, because with JLL's track record, I'm sure there will be some gold there eventually.I don't know how I came to subscribe to his channel?
  13. I'm glad you had so many kids. the religion stuff, we don't see eye to eye, but you strike me as the kind of guy that would raise open-minded, bright kids. I see a pressing need to out-produce all the dullards and I'm certainly too lazy to help with that shit.
  14. clarke macarthur is on this mission to make me look like an ******* in the FCHLlook, I'm sorry, but he didn't score for like 20 games in a row. I don't trust this hot streak at all.
  15. also, I don't know about you guys, but I sure am glad we shed a bunch of the douchebags that plagued this place in 08. maybe there's still time for those turds to resurface between now and the election, I don't know. I kind of doubt it.
  16. I don't wish death on matt cooke, but I would at least like him to be unable to play hockey anymore or something.maybe he can play, but at a much lower salary, and only with intense physical pain
  17. probably a big factor in the "bush was a big regulator" claim is sarbanes-oxley, which pretty much every lecture I've heard and discussion I've had with accountants has given me the impression that it accomplished very little. and I honestly don't know how any legislation could ever fix the fundamental problem: the fact that disclosures and financial accounting in general are so far out of reach of the common person, and often evade the trained professional. james burke gets at this point in connections, though he's speaking more broadly about technology.
  18. 2007 was pretty incredible (album version is way better) (officially released march 2008, but the album leaked in 2007)
  19. brv gets to have sex with his wife whenever he wants, but only at the risk of creating another mouth to feedis that how you were going to finish that thought?
  20. it's actually really funny, there's all this planning and shit that goes into freeing me up to go sit in the basement at the main branch in the afternoons. I don't see it as possibly being sustainable. yesterday, I made this huge fucking mess of old PCs (was removing hard drives) in the middle of a room where a few people work. one of them was like, "you know, sue's not going to like this when she's back tomorrow" like trying to pretend that it's someone else that this massive pile of useless PCs is intensely bothering. I responded, "I understand your concern, but there's no timetable for
  21. just for the record, I was trying to make an indie electronic list that didn't include anything from 2007
  22. I told him, don't do it that way. you'll never make a dime.
  23. don't think I've ever watched maher. closest I get is the daily show once in a great while. about as often as I eat at hardees.
  24. yet a healthy 30-40% of that forum thinks they're retarded, uses every opportunity to shit on them. weird how people are about politics.
  25. I know this is a different conversation, but I just want to make the point that some conservatives--the people that scoffed when Obama dismissed McChrystal, or similarly, Truman/MacArthur--have a tendency to forget the lesson from the crisis of the third century.
