Off Topic 2011

Re: Off Topic 2011

I was just coming home and about to turn into the road I live on and all I saw was smoke and fire trucks. Someone was pulling a car with a chain and the car was missing a tire (was down to the rim). It caused a spark/fire that caught the woods on fire.

I had to squeeze between a fire truck and the bank and go through my neighbors yard to get back on the road and get to the house.

I tried asking the firefighters that were just standing around and watching if it was all right, but they pretty much blew me off, so I did it anyway.

What is a Stanley Cup? Is that a tennis trophy or something?

Re: Off Topic 2011

Saw this posted on FB earlier - haven't researched any further so not sure exactly when this took place.

This photograph shows a red Doberman kissing an exhausted fireman. He had just saved her from a fire in her house, rescuing her by carrying her out of the house into her front yard, while he continued to fight the fire. She is pregnant. The firefighter was afraid of her at first, because he had never been around a Doberman before. When he finally got done putting the fire out, he sat down to catch his breath and rest. A photographer from the Charlotte, North Carolina newspaper, "The Observer," noticed this red Doberman in the distance looking at the fireman. He saw her walking straight toward the fireman and wondered what she was going to do. As he raised his camera, she came up to the tired man who had saved her life and the lives of her babies, and kissed him, when the photographer snapped this shot.

Amazing.

Percentage marks?

Re: Off Topic 2011

Percentage marks?

I can't remember who, but someone in here a few days ago suggested using % instead of #. I don't do Twitter, so I'm jumping on board

Re: Off Topic 2011

I believe % has become the anti-Twitterati's answer to hashtags.

Mike Birbiglia RT'd me.

Which is both awesome, but sort of weird since I was literally just listening to one of his stand-up albums on my way to Burger King like an hour ago.
