Re: Off Topic 2013

All with the exception of a very few, OS as a whole could use to learn how to shave.

I can side with those that just go screw it, I shave every 3 days or so just because I like to be clean shaven at work, but it's irritating on the facial skin and no matter how careful you are you are bound to get some cuts every now and then with a legit razor.

I don't know if anyone else has this but I'll get a clean shave all the way, and within 6-7 hours I'll already have the noticeable stubble, 5 o'clock shadow coming in.

Re: Off Topic 2013

We've finally started keeping the players we need. If we wouldn't have resigned Cutch (which I was shocked) or ever trade him, that may be what makes me walk away from the Pirates.

Whenever I got older, and understood baseball better.. nothing pissed me off more then us letting Barry Bonds go because of our cheap *** owners.

Well, in hindsight, maybe it wasn't such a bad thing they let Bonds go considering all the steroid baggage he wound up having.

BTW, you're favorite teams are all over the place and the one Pittsburgh team you consider to be a favorite is actually the worst of the lot. What's up with that?

Any of you fast food lovers going to visit Burger King any time soon now that they've admitted to using horse meat in their burger patties?

Meh, meat is meat. Haven't been to BK in years anyway. Aside for the period when they had the Big King, I always preferred McDonanlds and thought BK's burgers and fries were average at best.

I heard through the grape/great vine/line that horsey sauce does NOT in fact contain any horses. So the world is very wrong

Fair enough. I don't see horses as pets, so that's not a hang up for me. Its just another animal kept on a farm/ranch like cattle. Supposedly it tastes like a beef/venison hybrid, Japan uses raw horse as a sushi roll-type meal.

New goal: to try horse.

Well, theoretically any animal can be a pet if someone so chooses to keep said animal. See the videos of Enzo the Tiger that 42 (I think it was 42) posted a couple weeks ago.

I was going to go around the corner and grab some food from the Chinese spot but I couldn't find any pants (laundry day) so I say **** it and went out with a hoodie and some shorts. I haven't felt my legs in about 2 hours now.

Perhaps that was the excuse of the kid I saw walking across my college campus in shorts and a t-shirt one bitter cold afternoon when it was 10-15 degrees with a wind chill around -10. I was all bundled up and still freezing so I had to do a double take when I saw him because I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

Re: Off Topic 2013

I have a nice trim goin on.
I never really let it go past the stubble because then I look like a dirty mexican.

I hate shaving. When you are required to shave everyday for almost 6 years it starts to suck. Only 14 more years until I can grow beard.

Few notes here. First, you used the wrong "you're", it should be your. Also, a lot of people have favorite teams not all in one general area, me included. It's not totally abnormal.

What he means is that he's a Chudley Cannons fan, but his wife played for the Holyhead Harpies until he knocked her up, so he has to root for them too.

These are almost less fun when you have to google them for clarity. Almost.

Actually, The Pirates WEREN'T being cheap. (this is why I love having old broadcasts) The Pirates offered Bobby Bonilla as much or more money than the Mets but he bolted for Shea and they were VERY willing to give Bonds as much money as he wanted but it was clear he was only biding his time to head back "home" to San Francisco. The Pirates were actually quite willing to do what it took. Of course, their best pitcher in Doug Drabek left as well as he saw Bonilla and Bonds leave and he went home to Houston because the Buccos were looking like they wouldn't compete in '93.

Re: Off Topic 2013

So I might be moving to Orlando. Anyone know what neighborhoods in downtown to look at? I've heard College Park or the Thornton Park area around Lake Eola are good places to live with things to do in walking distance.

Depends.

What is your budget? Do you have a job lineup? If so then where?

There are some really nice places actually downtown, but might be out of your price range. 55 West, Solaire at the Plaza, Aspire Apartments are all around the Thornton park area, but a little closer to downtown. Very nice, area. Clean and safe and lots of nightlife with in very reasonable walking distance.

Personally, with traffic, and I-4 being a mess, I would stay directly out of downtown. At least I did. I lived in Heathrow, which was about 15 minutes north of Colonial Drive which is the start of Downtown. You would find apartments in a better price range in that area.

College Park is a decent area with a younger demographic. I would stay away from University Park though.

Re: Off Topic 2013

Kangaroo rules all.

Indeed it does.

I shave when convenient.

Who cares if I look mildly homeless?

Same here. I seem to shave about once a month, and really only that often because once it hits a certain length, it starts to bother me.

I am very judgmental of people who wear shorts during the winter. Something about it makes me naturally want to hate any person in shorts during a winter storm.

I wore shorts today and it was something like 5° when I woke up. Of course that was mostly because the rooms for my first two classes today are like 80° all the time. That said, I am much more comfortable in shorts and wear them even when it's in the 30s out.
