  1. Hallelujah got power! Been down for 8 hrs. Plugging stuff in and trying to microwave something warm to eat before it crashes out again.
  2. Power still out and I just saw somebody just drive down my street in a dune buggy. Its turning into a really strange remake of Mad Max Frozen Road.
  3. Carrollton reporting in. Powers gone out twice but no more than a total of an hour. Inside faucets still dripping but haven't the courage to check on the outside spigot. I've got them all covered and going to ride or die with Team No Drip. Snow looks beautiful though and just had my first pedestrian walk by with a big fat Starbuck's cup.
  4. Gagreed. But if they went with a full CGI young Balki that would have been a shock and awe moment opening a wormhole into awesomeness.
  5. Balki?
  6. Omigosh that is terrible. Heart goes out to you and your family.
  7. My current boss is not retiring but is being promoted (rightly so) and I will be reporting to someone new in 2021. Bummed because he has been one of the best managers I've worked with in my career. He has had to deal with a lot: first year in new company, new service line, Covid craziness, and because my direct manager at the time died from a massive heart attack back in Jan which we never backfilled. So lots of scrambling throughout the year as we figured out each other's work style. So waiting to see the announcement for his replacement which will be my 6th mgr in the past 5 years. My crew is pretty self sufficient but its definitely wearing to have to engage with a brand new lead so often. By the time you get them up to speed on processes and issues they are on that revolving door.
  8. Fuck. You. Trump. I'm 47 years old and voted in my first presidential election. Normally I'm apolitical and apathetic to this whole process but I had to get off my couch and vote against this asshole. He is one of the biggest frauds ever foisted upon the American public. I have been embarrassed for the past 4 years that this narcissist windbag has been the face of America. Finally his day has come and it is such relief that we no longer have to put up with his bullshit. I'm so happy right now, its almost as good as 4th and 5. Hook'em and God Bless America
  9. "Hey Pops how was your day?" "Not bad. Got a few dingers. Pissed some blood. What'd your pansy-ass do all day?" "Uhhh...justed posted some stuff on the internets." "Pfffff...kids these days. Hey I gotta put cancer in a headlock for next couple of days. Take care of your ma and make sure she stays open for business." Hey S. Austin wishing you all the best and expecting him to be crackin' coldies with you in no time.
  10. Damn what a loss. Not only a great talent but appeared to be a real stand up guy.
  11. Damn some real strong winds there. Kid in yellow is still trying to keep his castanets from clacking.
  12. First it was bats, now its bunnies, still all of it coming from China. Thanks Jinping! https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3980960 Novel bunyavirus re-emerges in China, kills seven Tick-borne disease transmitted person to person, more than 60 reportedly hospitalized in China so far this year 110 By Ching-Tse Cheng, Taiwan News, Staff Writer 2020/08/05 15:15 Health experts say tick-borne bunyavirus capable of human-to-human transmission. (Wikipedia photo) TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A highly pathogenic, tick-borne novel bunyavirus has reportedly re-emerged in China, hospitalizing more than 60 people and killing seven. According to CNA, a 65-year-old tea farmer in the Chinese province of Jiangsu recently fell ill with a fever of 40 degrees Celsius and a constant cough. After being sent to the Jiangsu People's Hospital, she was diagnosed with Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (SFTS), which is caused by the Huaiyangshan banyangvirus and characterized by a drop in blood platelets. The hospital said the woman was the 37th SFTS patient it has received this year. Meanwhile, several other Chinese provinces have reported similar cases this year, with Anhui being the most affected, confirming 23 patients and five deaths since April. Last November, Taiwan confirmed its first-ever SFTS case. The patient, a man in his 70s, developed a fever and experienced severe vomiting. He had no recent history of international travel but frequently went hiking in the mountains, according to Liberty Times. First discovered in China in 2010, the novel bunyavirus can be transmitted person-to-person and has a fatality rate of 10 percent, according to the Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The incubation period of SFTS is 7 to 14 days, and common symptoms include fever, fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and decreased appetite. Since tick bites are the virus' primary vector of transmission, the CDC advises the Taiwanese public to avoid wearing shorts in tall grass, wooded areas, and other environments where ticks are likely to be found. It also pointed out that there are currently no antiviral drugs for SFTS but that with efficient treatment, the mortality rate can be minimized, reported New Talk. Chinese provinces (in orange) reporting cases of SFTS this year.

    Ruined Names

    Wtf? Way too many posts before this name is mentioned: Switzer.
  15. Ok so quickly available, say 1 to 2 seconds, if someone was feeling threatened. Seems plausible considering reaction time after turn till shots fired. Nothing indicates driver was looking to do harm since he did stop the car initially and then after the shooting he did turn himself. He does look guilty of being a shitty driver and then panicking once he saw crowd swarming him. Will be interesting to see how they charge this one out. Is central console locked for those situations where you can't conceal carry? And are you having to make a lot of trips back and forth throughout the day to stash your gun as some locations allow if and some places don't?
  16. Question for you CHL types out there: what do you do with your gun when you are driving? Are you still "wearing" it? Is it in the dash? Under the seat? I'm a gun noob and genuinely curious on how people transport their weapons in certain situations.
  17. Anyone else concerned about their corporate branding?

    Last of Us II

    I'm running thru my 2nd playthrough on hard. Trying to get some more collectibles and pay more attention to the 2nd half of the story. Also having more fun working thru the big encounters. The first section with the dogs is my favorite map encounter. Been using the trap mine to take them out and give me a little breathing room. Gameplay is just so more fluid and dynamic vs the first one.
  19. So even if we could get this one approved via the rock legacy exchange rate this is still a pretty fucked up request. "Hey Bonzo welcome back! Yeah we brought you back from the dead. All your old mates are still here, Pagey, Robert, JPJ, everybody except for...uh...your only son. We had to kill him to bring you back. In fact jimmyjazz is mutilating the body every day this week just to make sure the dark sorcery is permanent. Here are some sticks, care to play Fool In The Rain for us? Hey! Where you going? Bonzo! Bonzo?"
  20. Socks hiked up to your knees. I was the richest muthafucker on the block.
