  1. I'm not in love with the size most of the time, but it's nice for watching a little Netflix at night. I don't use my TV nearly as much as I used to, I'm really thinking about downsizing it if not for the cost.
  2. :) Possibly, although that would only happen in Lindback was on the block.
  3. Otter Creek is often good. Their porter has been around forever and holds up reasonably well. Kind Ryed, Fresh Slice, and Over Easy are nice beers too.
  4. I don't think there's a really easy embed, but save as .png and upload might work.
  5. Stone is in SD.
  6. What's incredible is in the entirety of WW2 and Vietnam, not a single soldier, sailor, or marine got drunk and couldn't make reveille in the morning.
  7. Victory and Southern Tier to unite under a single holding company. http://www.marketwired.com/press-release/victory-brewing-company-and-southern-tier-brewing-unite-under-new-holding-company-2097138.htm
  8. Even the dust ups are pretty civil, as we've recently seen. Wait, what? Are we really talking about the party that hasn't compromised on anything (other than their small government principles, hey-ooooo) since Clinton was president? But you're right, the Democrats would pull the same crap. It's still stupid. The Supreme Court is the top of 1/3 of the government, leaving it a mess for a year because they want to score points and hopefully pick their own is BS.
  9. Coyotes add to the Ryan Vinz club: http://coyotes.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=869074
  10. I think this belongs in the Buffalo Women's Hockey team thread. :ph34r: (I feel quite bad about about making this joke)
  11. 25 games left, 52 points. To get to 93, that's 41 points. Let's call that 19-4-2. Not likely, the Sabres can only leave 10 points on the table before it becomes unlikely they end up #8.. Even 80 is 28 points, so 12-11-4, which seems reasonable give the current team, but deadline selling probably makes that optimistic.
  12. I think you just divide the amount of line out by the number of lines supporting the load, so 8 ft out / 4 lines = load drops 2 ft. The worker, BTW, only has to hold up 1/4 of the load weight. In general terms, block and tackle systems don't alter the amount of work required to lift a load, they just change the force - distance ratio. If you quarter the force required to lift or hold the load, you need to put four times the line through the system (distance) to lift the load to the same height..
  13. I like your optimism. Yandle has been talked about around here, but last I heard he's off the block for the trade deadline due to injuries on the Blueshirt Blue Line. I don't follow that closely, so I have no idea what his contract situation is.

    Tank 3.0

    If they're really paying attention, could they be betting on GMTM fire sale and the likes of Schaller and whatnot regularly skating the last 20 games?
  15. Do we all get to declare victory if Kane is traded in a hockey trade, such as for a #3/4 LHD? Or does it have to be that he's be run out of town for antics? Realistically, they guy is good but I could see moving him for the right return.
  16. This year? Almost no chance barring something like losing 3 games for the rest of the season. So no, it's not going to happen.
  17. This is going to sound snarky, but you're advocating that everything was going in the right direction at the culmination of 4 years of nearly unrestrained government spending (creating jobs in the war industries), which itself was at the end of 8 years of massive government jobs programs before that, all of which were fairly tightly regulated. And, that the government should be re-educating the population to think the right way.
  18. Kane has been trapped for weeks in a time-loop like Groundhog Day and the Star Trek TNG episode "Time Squared", only in his case he keeps finding a crazed GMTM in a car on Ohio Street on his way to a guest appearance at HarborCenter. Yesterday he actually hit the magic combo that got him out of the loop (throwing GMTM in Lake Erie to snap him out of it and stopping for Tim Horton's to buy donuts for everyone at HC), but didn't realize and didn't get out of bed.
  19. He was traded near the deadline. That's not being thrown off a team, Mike Richards was thrown off a team. There were never any charges against him in the assault "case", so he wasn't being investigated. But I suspect you're trolling, so I'm not sure this is going to clear things up.
  20. It's a smoke-screen to drive up the deadline price!
  21. Trade for Stamkos!
  22. Interesting observation. This is where the good separate from the bad. If Lehner has a hole, he needs to work with his GT coach to fix it. If he can't or won't fix it, he going to flame out. And with him, it should be incredible to watch.
  23. This came up somewhere else, but I like it. I think the Nucks should really embrace retro and wear the V's for the few games.
  24. Trump 2016, book it!
