josie Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 :lol: Reminds me of when I was in undergrad. We were walking back home at about 7am when this guy walking at a brisk pace with arms outstretched like a plane passes us and gets about 50 ft in front of us. At this point he tilts his wings and turns sharply across the street when he's even with a street sign. (Turned so sharp, he must have been a harrier.) Well, he stops at the sign and appears to be talking to the sign for a minute or so. He puts his arms back down to his side and, though we don't know what the sign said to him, it apparently scared the bejebus out of him 'cause he took off like a bat out of hell towards the dorms. We were always careful after that to never piss that sign off ourselves. ;) :w00t: Meth. Not even once. Tbh I used to pretend I was an airplane when I was little- I'd wear black and tell people I was an F-117 (i was utterly obsessed) and zoom around pretending no one could see me. But I guess it's more endearing when it's a little girl rather than a grown ass man! Quote

dEnnis the Menace Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Well, it's been a rough week, both on the ice and off. But it's Friday, and my son is coming home tonight from his week-long class trip, which is about the best thing that can happen in my house. And we finally seem to have a lengthy stretch of cool, fresh Fall weather here, which is great. And I'm running in my first ever half-marathon on Sunday, which, if I finish it, will also be great. Life is good. And it beats the hell out of the alternative. Best of luck on the half! I just ran my first half and my first Tough Mudder over the summer. The feeling you get when you cross that finish line no matter the time is just amazing. The sense of completion! Best of luck! Quote

Claude_Verret Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Going to the NC State- Syracuse football game tomorrow with a huge NY contingent. I don't really root for either team, but the tailgating should be fun. Quote
Eleven Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Haha he's a little tall for that.... Get Gerbe to do it. Quote
nobody Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Get Gerbe to do it. He's too busy scoring goals. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Going to the NC State- Syracuse football game tomorrow with a huge NY contingent. I don't really root for either team, but the tailgating should be fun. Nice! Missouri V Georgia tomorrow. After watching Maryland get owned by FSU, I get to go watch Georgia hopefully own Missouri. The GF's uncle has season tickets and he can't go so we are going for free. Pretty decent seats too. Go DAWGS! Also next weekend I travel with my little Seminole to Clemson for FSU v. Clemson... the winner will emerge as a serious national title contender, GO NOLES! Quote

MattPie Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 I'm 100% certain that the Sabres aren't losing tonight! Woo! Tomorrow, not so sure. Quote
chileanseabass Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 One day to PEARL JAM! I'm going on 10/30 down here in Charlotte.... should be a good time! Quote
spndnchz Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 I'm going on 10/30 down here in Charlotte.... should be a good time! Favorite song? Quote
chileanseabass Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Favorite song? Too many to pick just one. At this very moment in time? "Do the Evolution." Who's opening for them tomorrow? Looks like they're using regional bands as opposed to the same act throughout the tour. Last time I saw them was in Tampa in 2008 with Kings of Leon. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Wow!! 8:00 PM in Halifax and nothing in the Friday thread ... I'll bump it up to the top of the board. Turned 49 on October 5th ... Celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary today ... That's pretty fantastic. Carry on ... Quote
IKnowPhysics Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Government shutdown's over, so furlough is over. Being back at work feels good. Quote
SwampD Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Wife's out of town for the weekend so I'm flyin' solo with the kid. Her meds just kicked in and she's finally in bed. Time for a celebratory Manhattan, light a fire, and cry myself to sleep. Pretty good Friday, actually. F'N Fantastic. Quote
