  1. Wow, when did you have time to get to know most Eagles fans?
  2. Sadly some bars / restaurants I’ve been to need that recipe. I often get scotch neat served to me "on the rocks". When I send it back they strain the ice and try to serve it to me “up”. See attached for a breakfast cake recipe. Not really a holiday or Christmas recipe but it’s the only time I make it. A Pennsylvania Dutch dish, I got the recipe from my grandmother.
  3. Creedence Clearwater Revival -long as i can see the light Put a candle in the window, cause I feel Ive got to move. Though Im going, going, Ill be coming home soon, long as I can see the light.

  4. I can’t beat “a pair of laser-sited office scissors”. I actually looked them up online because I just had to see them. Unbelievable! I did get a rechargeable automatic wine bottle opener. Another product that is a solution to a problem I didn’t have. The things they will add power to amazes me. Like the cordless handheld can opener. It already existed; you just had to power it yourself. I can understand if you are arthritic or physically compromised in some other way but come on, if you are able bodied and want one of these things I don’t get it. Just one more thing you have to find a place to store it. Crap like this keeps me in white elephant gifts for the rest of my life and then some. PS If you really think this opener is something you would want, let me know and I’ll send it to you. Sorry, continental US only.
  5. All hope is not lost. Wow. Thanks for posting that.
  6. Did you blow your way through student status? I heard it is more salty than sweet but who am I to argue?
  7. As a cyclist maybe you can answer a question for me. Many people ride bicycle to get into or stay in shape. If that is the case, why buy the lightest most efficient bicycle? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose? Pedaling this bike around seems like it would get you in shape.
  8. I don't have an iPhone but this is a pretty cool app. http://brk.to/pfa Amazing
  9. Very nice. Thanks for posting those.
  10. Yes, I have the digital zoom disabled at all times. Nice little camera. I should really take the time to learn how it works (beyond the auto default settings).
  11. Lunar eclipse tonight. http://www.citystatetimes.com/1888/lunar-eclipse-this-december-2010/ What are the chances of getting a decent photo with a simple point and shoot Nikon Coolpix S700? Any suggestions? Or am I just kidding myself? In any case it should be a good show?
  12. Both good. I'm a fan of this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdy3orO6tQA
  13. You do realize that silos have ladders right? I think you can even see them in the photos.
  14. As if you haven't been studying it.
  15. Yep, they don't look for air traffic, just see that light, and jump like lemmings... And just like driving. Just because the light turns green doesn't remove the need to see if someone isn't screaming through the intersection. I think that could be where some of that reaction comes from. Traffic light turns green, go.

    Probably not the actual last words because no one could hear what he was saying on his way to the ground but as he was gearing up he said “I am going to really trash out my canopy”. This was in response to someone asking what he was going to “do” for his 500th jump. I think it was about the third time he stalled his canopy the recovery was so violent he ended up with his legs and a good portion of his body wrapped up in his lines. Collapsed the canopy and that was all she wrote. First fatality I was unfortunate enough to see.
  17. You may be on to something. THE NEXT DAY Seriously though Nataly, it is better you found out now before you invested too much time and emotion. .

  20. Sorry, I did miss you saying you can’t add layers and I wasn’t talking specifically to you. When I was younger I worked at a factory that produced ceramic tile. Kilns burning at 2000 degrees. We actually stood on the kiln cars to unload them. They were still hot enough that the soles of you shoes would get sticky. The factory roof had windows that could be opened. More often than not when we would open them someone in another department would have a supervisor close them because they were chilly in their short sleeved shirts. Them putting something warmer on was not an option but they weren’t real wild about me getting naked either. Just trying to be helpful but maybe you need to take a look at the layers you have on. WARM This stuff is fantastic. I wear it jumping, riding cycle (I’ve been on the bike when it has been as low as 8 deg. fahrenheit) and to the office. Sometimes it is too warm. .
  21. Dress for the cold. Is that so hard. This may not be you but I've seen people have the temp adjusted warmer for them when they are wearing short sleeved shirts and skirts. Should I strip down if it's too warm? .
  22. Yeah and most likely 99% of people would have said that exact same thing before 9-11. I would have been one of them. So what is more of a whiny bitch? Being so afraid of the terrorist you will tolerate the illusion of being made safe or bitching about the illusion. .
  23. I’d like to hope you are right. Maybe the story exists only because the media has decided it is so important. I could see it being mentioned at the end of the news cast as an afterthought. “The prince got engaged to Kate Middleton today. Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow.” You know, one of those stories that gets bumped if anything else happened that day (like baby ducks getting stuck in a storm drain). .
