I had no idea Greg Oden was still injured. Yikes.


Yes, there's a thread for this, but the NBA forum scares me.

Come Chaos, it's okay. We're all cool, unless you start Kobe vs LeBron, a LeBron thread or really anything involving a dude's favorite player

Re: Off Topic 2010

I just heard Paul Allen's call of the Cardinals knocking the Vikings out of the Playoffs back in 2003.

Good Lord, I'm surprised his lungs didn't pop out of his mouth.

Regardless, it made me really, really happy after a pretty mediocre day. Paul Allen calls have a way of doing that to me.

The responsiveness of the DirecTV remote/reciever is ****ing garbage.

Thank you! I thought I was the only one.

Re: Off Topic 2010

Rent in Lincoln Park isn't cheap. Hell anything along the brown line isn't cheap.......just letting you know right now.

Actually, he pays less than me. But it's for a two-bedroom that's smaller than my one-bedroom and he has to pay all utilities. In the end, I come out ahead. But Chicago > Duluth. I probably won't move though. Duluth is basically my home now. Been here going on 11 years, and I have a sweet job.

Sounds like you had a damn good time dude.

It's just such a great city. Can't say enough good things about it.

I just heard Paul Allen's call of the Cardinals knocking the Vikings out of the Playoffs back in 2003.

That's one of the things that can brighten up my day when I'm feeling down. Here's another that I've posted before:

Re: Off Topic 2010

I just decided to mess around and entered my OS username. First name "Burgh", last name "Fan" and here's what I god

There are fewer than 1,553 people in the U.S. with the first name Burgh.
There are 6,563 people in the U.S. with the last name Fan.
There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. named Burgh Fan.

EDIT: Well, apparently it will say "fewer than 1,553 people" for anything that's not a real name or just a made up word random string of letters. It gives a value of 115 for last names like that.

Right now I have to girls that keep commenting on a wall post of mine...I'm not sure how long they are keeping this up, perhaps going to 100 comments. I'm not sure.

Whacky weather man......last night at this time it was 67 degrees, tonight it is 45 and foggy, with a cold crisp to the air. Pellet stove been kick on for the past 90 minutes now.

Oh well the warm weather was fun while it lasted, guess we going to get back to our normal New England weather for this time of the year.

Re: Off Topic 2010

So sick of political ads. Everybody lies, hates children, isn't a "patriot", misrepresented their military service, kills babies, and wants your family to die. And it's all set to dramatic string music or doomsday keyboard riffs. Stop it - I already know who I'm voting for.

Studies have shown that people react for towards the "shockingly bad" negative commercials than a well done positive one. Also, those commercials are not directed at people who know a lot about the election. Instead, they are directed at people who are not as interested in hopes of "shocking" them into voting a particular way

That was one of the greatest moments of my life. EVERY Packer Fan should have that call saved on their Computer.
