Look around on other HD channels. Up here on Philly Comcast, there's a second channel (TCN) that'll often have the Flyers on if something is tying up the normal Comcast Sports Network channel (Sixers, Philles, etc.).

Pomminstein's primary value isn't only in points. Can the 6 above him play any defence or are they all Kovalchuks? (I don't really know) Heh, nicely done.

It seems like I can have some liquor at night night and still lose a little weight, but not beer. I much prefer beer. :(

Wait, I thought you were a college student (maybe grad) and you have a yard to rake?

If you wait to test everything and it be perfect, you might get pwn'd while you wait for the update. See post above about Malware.

Laviolette apparently was *P'd-O* post-game last night. That means they'll either be demoralized or come out flying (no pun intended). http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/flyers/20101026_Flyers_fall_to_Blue_Jackets.html

Hmm, Mechanicsburg is only 2 hours from my house...

It's 200 on my view, that's even better. :)

Wow, I read this and thought it was in reference to Pebble's referee debut in Pennsyltuckey. That's cold. :)

I'm betting something with regular expression skillz (not me, I only know basics) could make it work. http://www.regular-expressions.info/quickstart.html

Offen der schnide, herr Ruff?

I should have taken a screen-shot: a few years ago, a bar in Old City Philly had their beer menu online, which listed Genny Cream Ale for $5.50. PER CAN!! Stupid hipsters.

Man, are you going to be mad when your dive bars become hipster hang-outs. :)

yeah, a blast. Monday I took a really nice route from Binghamton to Philly (7 hours, all back roads), but it's been downhill since then.

I call it "dating by fire". I introduce all my friends fairly early on. If she can't handle them, so be it. It's just going to cause drama down the line if she doesn't like them. (I can't believe you hang out with that guy, etc, etc,) For that matter, we discuss 'big' things right away too. There's no point dating someone that does/doesn't want to get married, kids, move, motorcycle, etc. It's something of a low-key speed-dating approach. Complaint: I've been in a funk all week. No energy, no time, no motivation.

I got up too late to ride to bike in to work, on what will likely be the best day to ride until April. I'm hoping I can rack up another couple hundred miles before the weekend is over.

I'm complaining that no one else is complaining. It's 2PM!

I'm at work. I don't work second shift. I'm sure two of the cats have eaten the third.

You probably don't want to watch this then. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Spiqpvpuas

Der Kommisar is in town? There was an average looking guy blasting Master of Puppets out of his Toyota Corolla this morning in traffic. I know Metallica fans are in their 30s and 40s now, just seems odd. I have the slackers in my head this week. EDIT: found a video for the actual song that's in my head right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e36D29--UmM

At least there's a couple people that agree with me. What's even more amusing (or sad) are the folks I know from motorcycling that complain about taxes. All I can think is that if you have enough money to buy a bike and all the accouterments, taxes should be the last thing you're worried about. There are people who end up with my tax money that don't deserve it. That's a given. Much like I'm sure there are people at, say, Wegmans that don't deserve their wages, which I 'pay' with my purchases. But, there are a whole lot more people who end up with my tax money that aren't lazy bums or whatnot, and I can live with the bums if the good folks get help.

My taxes went up $82 this year. I'm not complaining. I have it pretty good, so if my taxes go to somewhere that helps other people so be it. It's all about perspective.

I'm on some awful rhythm right now where it seems like I never get home for work and errands before 8PM, but I can't go to sleep for a few hours so I get up late the next day and the whole thing starts over.

I thought I'd try logging into the board with my Google info using OpenID, but I can't figure it out. I tried my Google profile URL (http://www.google.com/profile/<google username>), and one I fond on the net, http://www.google.com/accoutns/o8/id, but neither seem to work. Anyone have this working?

If they're your bushes, hide an electric fence in them. Enough for a zap, not enough to do permanent damage.
