  1. A friend of mine's was very similar, except substitute lots of guns and clays for boats.
  2. Skipped signing into a MS account initial setup. Win! :)
  3. There was a quote some years back that, "If Pat Buchannon and the ACLU agree on something, you're living in strange times". It's not a circle though, it's a grid (or even more dimensions than that). You can be fairly libertarian in terms of person freedom and government interference while still believe that the government can be a positive force in the world. Syria/Iraq and ISIS does lend credence to the anarchy theory.
  4. This all has to go through a jury (Grand and Petit), right, unless PKane accepts a deal? I suppose jury nullification could happen. Others have answered the oath question, but I'm not sure it's perjury though, isn't there a "Filing a false police report" charge?
  5. That is ugly, but in my mind the color choices of "White, Dingy White, and very light grey" leave a bit to be desired. I don't know why they even bothered.
  6. Or, take three chicken breasts (one package, most of the time) and prepare them (let's say pan fried in a little oil with Wegs or Dinosaur BBQ rub). Eat one with dinner (vegetables and a grain as sides). Put the other two in the fridge. Tomorrow, cube one breast and put it on a salad. The next day, slice the remainder and make a sandwich out of it with lettuce and other toppings. The only issue is a chicken breast is really 2 servings each so we're solidly into "American Portion Control" territory.
  7. Good guess, that's exactly what it is. I've been to a fwe, and I'm not sure what to make of it. It's fun and all, but depending on your group of friends it's either "my great Jack and Jill party" or "every weekend".
  8. Spoilers: Sister Sarah may not be a sister.
  9. I think we're all kind of in agreement, Drew Stafford isn't a great or maybe even good 1st line RW, but he'd be in the mix for a lot of teams. If he can't make your 2nd line, you have a couple of pretty good RW already. He's not the right player for most 3rd lines, unless you're doing 3 lines of offense and 1 grinder line.
  10. Wine Cooler of Wheee!
  11. Correct. I don't think anyone here debating forcible rape, just that statutory and grey area *may* exist. But d4rk's point is right and WOPR's advice stands: the only way to win is to not play. It's probably worth noting committed relationship and non-exclusive aren't mutually exclusive. I've known a few real-life people that have been in them.
  12. You're right that Drew Stafford doesn't seem like a 1st line RW or top-3 guy, but in reality that's more about fan perception than the quality of the players. We see the truly great RWs (like Ovechkin and PKane (unless he's in jail)) and say, "that's what a top line RW looks like!" while in reality, that's what a top-5 RW looks like, most teams have someone closer to Stafford than those guys. I think it happens with any position (and any sport). You feel like your team needs that guy to be good, but most teams don't have that guy either. For instance, Patrick Sharp (and I didn't know this until I just looked it up) has that same 43 points and two fewer goals last year in 8 fewer games. That's playing on the top line on the Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks with a couple of the best players in the league. If you bump up that total for the same number of games, we're only talking about 47 or 48 points and the same 18 goals. There's no way anyone can say Patrick Sharp is a first-line player without admitting Drew Stafford is too based on scoring.
  13. I'm lapsed. I did it for awhile, and then lost track of it. My wife quit when she got the 100 distinct beers badge. I forget what my username is, but I bet it's something like mattpie.
  14. The only defense would be if the walking/biking trail is full of walkers. I know first hand a trail can be really annoying as people will spread out and take up the entire trail and don't pay attention to bells or anything short of yelling. And those are the ones not wearing headphones.
  15. Is that a beer thing or a Tindr competitor?
  16. Hire Lindy Ruff Now
  17. Perry (although usually spelled "Peri"), and there has be a Taylor or Ryan, both of which are somewhat girls names these days. there should be a "Kelly" in the league too.
  18. I thought of that one, but it's not my style to label myself in a "Dreamy" manner.
  19. SavingRoquefort Sabres fan in NB (New Brunswick, that'll fool 'em!) JJBitchinCamaro Ross shredder (with cartoon mouse avatar) sajets
  20. Or Jean Battistaux.
  21. Interesting. I wonder if someone had a fake for 21 and showed it to "prove" they're 21, the other party could press charges for fraud.
  22. I think there's some leeway there, too. If she was in a bar with a fake ID there's at least grounds that he didn't know she was under-age. I think; I'm no lawyer.
