what are the fucking chances that my picks both reversed and re-reversed are the worst picks overall?
Seriously, odds?
posted by Folkways at 06:05 PM on March 16
alas dfleming and owls are both correct (well no, but it sounded good to me) simply entered my picks in reverse, it was the 21yr old GlenliveT i swear.
The good Doctor informed me of my discression a while back and offered to reverse my reverse but i pretty much left it to him. Didn't think it fair to win when i was the one that fucked up in the first place.

I received a lovely 2 disc set in the mail this afternoon from the land down under. Thanks Owlhouse! Comedy, Tragidy, Love in the elevator, you really covered the gammit this time.
I will be at the Post Office tomorrow sending my 2 disc babies out to their new homes. Obviously if they do not arrive (from Pensacola FL) in a reasonable amout of time, either they sufficated in those little boxes or Mr. Customs Man took an un-natural liking to them

OK you computer guru's here at SportsFilter I need help.
Question~If i take me laptop running WINDOWS VISTA and use a USB 2.0 cable and plug it into an iMac G5 running god knows what will they converge and explode into a massive mess of chips and plastic creating a small black hole in my room that then sucks all the rest of my electronics into the void leaving me dumbfucked OR Can I transfer files from the laptop to the iMac safely?
Thanks in advance Y'all, I truly am computer illiterate.

Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Auto Racing is a weekly game that begins with the Daytona 500 on Sunday, February 15, 2009, and runs through the Ford 400 on Sunday, November 22, 2009.
In addition, the season is broken down into three segments. The first segment (Spring) begins with the Daytona 500 (February 15) and ends with the Southern 500 (May 9). The second segment (Summer) starts with the Coca-Cola 600 (May 24) and runs through the Sharpie 500 (August 22). The third segment (Fall) starts with the Pep Boys Auto 500 (September 6) and runs through the Ford 400 (November 22).
All groups will have a score sheet for each segment of the season, as well as a fourth that shows the overall score earned by your team throughout the full season.
You can join the game anytime between Tuesday, January 13, 2009, and Saturday, November 21, 2009. The game is comprised of weekly contests that begin on Monday and conclude on Sunday, unless Monday racing is required to decide a real-life race winner.
The deadline to create a team for each race is 2:00 a.m. PT on the day of qualifying.
Thanks to all of you who have made this long season fun in the past as well as those of you who will be here once again or are new. All SpoFi members are welcome to join.

I don't know, maybe listening to my mix over and over clicked a memory. My wife (at the time) and I ued to go to the Gold's Gym in Anniston Alabama to work out. It was owned by Kevin Green (Some of you may know who he is) anyway my now ex-wife and his wife struck up a friendship. Long story short he asked me to spot him while he benchched much more weight than I could pick up. Our friendship lasted until he retired from the NFL and sold the gym and moved out of Anniston. But that is not what I wanted to say. Our oldest son was like about 7yrs old at the time and he had troubled saying the words to Euro Trash Girl. It came out as You're a Trash Girl and he was singing it in the childcare room the gym had provided. Needless to say we got a talking too one night about midnight when we finally left to go to the Green's place on the mountain.

assuming I don't have a gigantic paper I've forgotten about.
I had a gigantic paper once, I think it came with my Cheech and Chong album "Up in Smoke".
We used it one night and were so fucked up that even trying to walk was a problem.
I hope to be able to post my 2 to 3 CD playlist on iTunes for those who have an account you should be able to sample and chose what you want. CD's will be sent as soon as I can get them narrowed down to fit.

I'll second tahoemoj, there is just so much stuff out there that getting copies of what others listen too increases my collection with some really cool shit.
With over 10,000 songs if anyone is looking for something in particular (Jill Soubule solo version of "I Kissed a Girl" recorded live at 105.9 L.A. anybody? [j/k]) Also I am looking for any live shows (any band/artist) anybody? And yea like the name Folk/Rock, is my fav.

Now this brings back more than a few um...well..embareassing memories. My vasectomy was done by a female doctor with 2 female nurses present. Not to come across as sexist but all three were quite attractive (and the whole "nurses in uniform" porn movie thing comes to mind). At least they were not offended and the good doctor had no problem "snipping".
OK yea WAY to much information.
Still the best decision I ever made.

Tampa Bay(post exorcism)Rays in 5 Games.
Jason Bartlett walks away with the MVP.
Series turns into a dull pitchers duel. Strikeouts happen more often than hits or runs.
But still one lucky batter will hit 0.546.

Said, shell not nag nr torment you a single time, an you have a fuss, shell give you a big hug an say you was right all along.

The Lord went on, said, shell never never complain of a headache an ll give you love an passion whenever you call fr it, an when you have younguns shell not ask y to git up in th middle of th night. Adams eyes got real big, dont cha know, said, Whatll a woman like at cost a feller? Th Lord said, A arm an a leg!
