Would you prefer an EJ sucks thread?
No, but a trade Mario for Skelton would be fabulous!
-
So the guy does it and writes about it on his blog that he gets money from advertisers for. Hmmm
Why not just end it, tip the Barista $100 and leave it at that? Why do you need to turn around and make money off of it?

A 4 page thread for a #5 WR and a WR that was cut last year? Only on TwoBillsDrive

What a dick.
$&)/%!

Yeah. Tuel challenged Lewis to pistols at 20 paces.
Both were uninjured, since neither can hit anything outside of five yards.
I would laugh, but it's true therefore sad.

Maybe I misunderstood the article, but:
It's never enough. One can't just donate to a charity now. You have to donate more. When does it stop? A percentage of my income?
Don't mean to sound like a dick, but no thanks. If/when I donate the money I earn, by working a job that I don't particularly care for, I'll donate it to a charity (or charities) of MY choosing. I won't say anything about it, and won't claim it on taxes.

I suppose that might have been a good response had Hughes been complaining. Apparently he was not.
Yeah, too bad I didn't see that before I hit the reply button...

Maybe a coach should've said, "We haven't had a winning season since 2004. We haven't been in the playoffs since 1999. You don't want to wear pads for 20 days, THEN WIN SOME F------ GAMES!"
-
Stick a banana up your butt for charity! Pound your thumb with a hammer for charity! Suck a dog's dong for charity!
Yes, it's fine if people want to do this for charity. Now it's just a "thing".
Whatever floats your boat man.

I remember similar in the book, but was it really in Winterfell or Moat Calain(sp?)
I'll get there soon enough again in the books.
It was winterfell. Or rather Winterfells ruins.

Is George strait considered like the king of modern country, and is he deserving ? Seems like hes held in quite high esteem
He's been around since 1980-81. I think he's the top grossing country music singer. He's popular. I'm not a big fan but I like a couple of his songs. I like more of the American folk, bluegrass music myself.
-
This is true, he will just need to adjust his hop additions accordingly since hop utilization is related to boil volume.
Right on! Do you guys treat your water or just take it straight from tap?

Do what I do. Live near a craft brewery.
I do. I live about 15 miles from Dust Bowl brewery, and there are some really good restaurants nearby that have some good crafts on tap. There's something about making it yourself though. It's enticing, and making me thirsty.
I make my own wine, I assume it's a similar process, but more of a longer investment of time... I use a note pad...
I thought about doing wine too, but I'm gonna master the beer first. It's pretty safe to say that there are a few more wineries in my area than breweries haha.
there are easy ways to cut down on the expense...goodwill, craigslist, yard sales for brewing vessels, and glass carboys...grocery stores/donus shops for plastic fermenters...save your bottles after you drink beer...then you have the investments you can't avoid, capper, hydrometer etc, but those can be found for cheap....the raw ingredients can get pricey, but that's when you have to break it down on a per case basis, figure one batch = 60(?) bottles, 2.5 cases. Homebrew club members are also great resources for unused dust cluttering equipment
I actually never thought about Goodwill, or Craigslist. I'll check them out for sure! My mom gave me 5 stainless steel stock pots to use for the cooking process, but the largest holds 5 gallons max. I need to get a 6.5-7.5 gallon stock pot so I can make a full 5 gallon batch.

I'm a big OCMS fan and I just get sick and tired of people(not you) saying it's a Darius Rucker song, as far as I am concerned Darius Rucker ruined the song....but then again, I am not a country music fan to begin with.
I don't consider OCMS country to begin with. More bluegrass/folk to me. I also prefer the OCMS over Rucker.

Beersmith is a nice piece of software to create and track recipes, but there are other apps and websites that are out there as well. Beersmith is probably overkill unless you move into all grain brewing.
And you can get started making quality extract beer with a Northern Brewer essential starter kit for less than $100.
http://www.northernb...tarter-kit.html
some other good sources of information and equipment
The Brewing Network podcasts:
http://thebrewingnetwork.com/shows
Morebeer.com (check out their forums too)
Thanks BillsFanNC! Do you use the beersmith? Is it user friendly? When I get used to the new (to me) brewing methods then I intend to dabble in the all grain brewing.

I'm a huge fan of Discovery's Shark Week, but this crap of the living Megalodon, and the shark they call "Submarine" straight up pissed me off. Kinda ruined Shark Week for me.
-
They must be paying him... Like a DJ... I get they all believe everything they watch on Discovery, too!
How can you not believe a tale of a shark named Submarine?

Last Christmas my in-laws got me a "Mr.Beer" home brew kit. To this day I've brewed 3 batches (3rd batch is in the 4th day of the fermentation process). It is the Surly Dog IPA recipe. My previous brews were a Doppleback, and the American Classic Light which came with the kit when I got it. Everything has turned out great. My friends loved the brews I've offered them so far.
Two weeks ago I took a brewU101 course through my local home brew supply store (Barley and Wine, Modesto, CA.). I've decided that while I continue to brew the Mr.Beer brews I'm going to start doing my own home brews. One thing I've noticed is that a) it's expensive to get started, and b) there's a lot more TLC that goes into making your own home brews from scratch.
When you all take notes on your home brews (if you do) do you use any tech aps on your phone or tablets, or websites? If so, which ones do you use? Or do you guys just use pen and paper to take your notes?
Thanks!

Before Jamie sends off Brieanne, they speak of Arya and the Boltons
what happened to the Arya Stark that was supposed to be sent off to marry Boltons Bastard?
did they hint at this in the TV show?
It was before Tyrion killed Tywin
In the show it was never mentioned. In the book I think she escaped with Reek at Winterfell. IIRC, Mance and his two wildling women that were posing as the entertainment for Bolton's men were killing them. They approached Reek about escaping and helped him and "Arya" escape before being caught themselves.

Thanks, but part of the reason I'm on the worley kick is that I'm burning a CD for a place I hang out at, and the crowd won't tolerate old traditional country. Need the new stuff like worley with more potential for popular appeal
Do you have iTunes, or a form of program that will allow you to download music?
If so, search:
Carrie Underwood, Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Lady Antebellum, Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Luke Bryan, Taylor Swift, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, The Band Perry, Florida Georgia Line, George Straight
I have iTunes, and on it I can search for a specific genre (country) and find out what the most popular downloads are. That would give you a good idea of what to put on the CD. There may be a few artists I've missed in the above list but if you search for their songs you should be able to come up with more than a few CD's worth of songs between them to keep everyone entertained.
OCMS didn't do "a version " of wagon wheel. They are responsible for the song as a whole. It's a song that was kind of pieced together into what is now wagon wheel. Bob Dylan pretty much started the song and OCMS, 'completed' into what we hear today
I'm aware Pooj. I just didn't feel it was necessary to go into the whole story behind the song Wagon Wheel.
-
Dierks Bentley (I've enjoyed all of his albums except I haven't been able to get into the new one yet)
Jason Aldean (Night Train album)
Eric Church (Chief album)
Kip Moore (Hey Pretty Girl)
Darius Rucker (Wagon Wheel). IMO the album sucks but the songs great. Also...
Old Crow Medicine Show does a great version of the song Wagon Wheel too that I actually like better than Ruckers version.

No. It was referring specifically to Stewart in response to whether he would race that morning.
"Just a few hours after telling USA TODAY Sports that Sunday would be ''business as usual,'' and Stewart would race as scheduled, the team reversed course."
Keep flailing....
I've done more than enough to prove my point that you know absolutely nothing about what your talking about. Good luck with your witch hunt. I'm done here.

One thing I forgot to mention. Some good will come out of this. As Joe_the_6_pack mentioned NASCAR formalized (not changed) its' rules because of this incident.
The unfortunate thing with racing is usually safety measures are made because someone lost their lives ie. Hans device and safer barriers for Dale Earnhardt Sr, Kenny Irwin, Jr. and Adam Petty. The window net was mandated because someone spun into a wall with the drivers side of their car and hit their head on the wall, gas pedals modified because of Kenny Irwin's and Adam Pettys wrecks in which their throttles stuck going into a turn at New Hampshire.
Pit road speeds were enforced because a member of Bill Elliot's crew (IIRC) was struck by a car on pit road while changing the tires on his car and killed.

one less chip for the defense .... seems it wasn't so ironclad Ward was violating rules at the time by being on the track......
There was nothing in the rule books for both Canandaigua Raceway Park or the Empire Series Sprints rule books about exiting a vehicle like Ward did. Also, it wasn't a NASCAR sanctioned event so NASCAR rules wouldn't apply to anyone racing in that race (or that track, since it's not a NASCAR sanctioned track).
So your conclusion is that not one of his spokespeople/employees asked Tony what he wanted to do as far as racing that day before they spontaneously announced it would be business as usual. His VP just assumed he would want to race after killing Ward?
That's really unbelievable.
No, I have no conclusions on it. You do however. You have based your conclusions on what others have speculated time and time again.
Have you ever thought about Tony Stewarts Sprint Cup team (the 14 team)? Is it possible that maybe it was business as usual for the 14 team? You know, the crew wakes up, puts on their fire suits, readies the car for pre-race inspection, rolls it out to the grid once it has passed, and having to change the seat in the car to fit another driver because their driver was involved in a tragic accident that he may or may not face criminal charges for? Those guys had a crap load of work to do to ready that car to race. They all have important jobs to make sure that car runs well on race day. They all have jobs to do, and as crappy as it may seem, commitments to honor (from sponsors, and NASCAR, and the fans). Tony, for his part did the right thing and didn't race, but that doesn't mean his team has to sit the sidelines while he grieves. His crew wasn't even at Canandaigua when the tragedy occurred. Did you know that Tony owns three other cars on the Sprint Cup circuit that all carry his name on the car? Is it possible that the business as usual comment was made in regards to those teams too?
Before Stewart-Haas became what it is today it was called Haas-CNC Racing. They were typically "start and park" cars meaning that often times they would simply start a race, then park the car early on. They weren't very competitive. The primary owner, Gene Haas, served two years in prison for tax fraud. Did those teams not show up to the race tracks? No, it was "business as usual" for them.
Is it not possible that Tony Stewart was overcome with grief, and maybe didn't sleep the night after he killed a young kid that ranged in age from 17-20 years old depending on what media outlet said?
WEO, you have based your opinions on what happened by listening to every one else give their opinions on what happened. From the he accelerated at the last minute which means that he was trying to "brush back" the kid to caving in to media backlash. You don't know anything. You don't know anything about racing, the lifestyle, the dangers, risks, or rewards of racing.
Today, the VP of communications for Stewart-Haas Racing was asked if Stewart was essentially "forfeiting" his ability to make the Chase. His reply was that there were more important things to Stewart than the Chase for the Sprint Cup. That was this morning. Is he still caving in to the media?
These are the facts, Kevin Ward Jr. died. Tony Stewart was driving the car that hit him. Anything else (until Tony Stewart opens up about it) is SPECULATION. One families lives have been forever altered, and one mans life forever changed, and another mans life lost.
