  1. Kiper is 4th among all mock draft experts over the last 5 yrs. http://www.thehuddlereport.com/index/mockdraftscores.shtml
  2. Summarize it: we get two of the top 100: Landry & DeVito
  3. Not full length but related and 720p: 2001 and Echoes
  4. Nor is 75, I guess. Sally Kellerman was just on an episode "The Worst Generation" of Workaholics as a promiscuous nursing home resident http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1702617/workaholics-true-life-sally-kellerman-clip.jhtml I don't watch this very often but lol'd a few times at this one.
  5. Portlandia Hart's SNL episode was not memorable but really enjoyed being turned onto Alabama Shakes during the prior one
  6. You may have already hit your apogee for mindless entertainment by being in the forums on TBD, BTW - flu shot?
  7. BEST DIRECTOR David O. Russell, “Silver Linings Playbook” Behn Zeitlin, "Beast of the Southern Wild" Michael Haneke, “Amour” Paul Thomas Anderson, “The Master” Steven Spielberg, “Lincoln” Somewhat surprised that Bigelow (Zero Dark) and Affleck (Argo) were not in the director nominations so I think big $ will be on Speilberg. I also believe Day-Lewis and Hathaway are locks for lead actor and actress respectively.
  8. I am optimistic. If they had hired re-treads like Lovie or Wiz, I may not have re-upped my season tix. Though he was an NFL OC, I will be very interested in the staff he hires. We know what we would have gotten with Lovie, Wiz, et. al. just like we knew what we had with Fitz. Nobody knows what we have with Marrone...hopefully, that's a good thing.
  9. The Bills will set the record for # of screens attempted in a game.
  10. I feel the same way. I have season tickets for quite a while and have been taking my wife and/or kids for many years. I have been reluctant to re-locate from where I am in the lower bowl because they few issues arise in that spot. Perhaps a beer was spilled here or there, some swearing, but for the most part everything has been fine. I enjoy going to the games and so do my wife and kids. I do not park in the public lots so I cannot comment so much on the trash but I walk through the lots to meet people and check out the RV lot but I realize this is a public stadium like at a concert and I expect trash to be around so I do not really notice so much. We always stay or venture over to Hammer's lot and enjoy the Pinto extravaganza and have a great time there. Too bad others have had so many bad experiences but I would always like to be at a game rather than watch on TV from 500 miles away (where I live).
  11. I selected and do the maintenance on a Cummins-Onan 6500 LP for my wife's business. I also use if for the home when necessary. The C-O is a commercial quiet propane generator and I do the oil/filter changes on it. It has 300 hrs on it and it is solid. Great support org and 24 hr access for parts & service as they have many centers scattered around the US. They make residential units, too. The C-Os kick azz and I have also heard good things about the Generacs but I don't have as much experience with them.
  12. This. I decided which circuits I wanted to stay active after a power failure: kitchen (fridge, bathroom(s), family room, etc.) and then determined how much juice (amps/watts) I would need to keep it going to price out a generator. I had a separate panel run for the circuits I wanted to stay active and ran the plug out to where I would move the generator in a power failure. If you go for a big generator, remember that fuel demands will increase and you will need to resupply at some point. But if you are a Doomsday Prepper then you have that all figured out.
  13. That is true if you use gas or diesel. But if you use propane or natural gas, then you avoid two issues: 1.) exercising it regularly and 2.) the fuel degrading. The upfront cost of a propane generator will be more but the hassles will be reduced. If you are going for a whole house cutover generator, IMO, Cummins-Onan is the best : http://www.cumminsonan.com/residential/products/homestandby
  14. I believe this is the first political comment I ever made anywhere on TBD. IMO - the Republican party or Tea Party will have a difficult time in presidential elections going forward due to their exclusivity, specifically minorities and you could also toss in women and LGBT. I saw stats that one of the Bush's won the electoral college with 62% of the white vote. Romney had the same percent this election but the minorities/non-white now constitute a larger % of the population and that number will continue to grow. I recall seeing coverage of the RNC this year on the Daily Show and how it was difficult for them to find minorities in attendance. Now I know they had an agenda but nonetheless there was a paucity of minority attendees as compared to the the DNC. While Republicans and the Tea Party are successful in regional elections depending upon location, that does not translate as well to the country-wide demographics change that is occurring and will continue. BTW - I work for a large corporation and my wife is a small business owner so I consider the federal/state impact of both environments when I am voting regionally and for president.
  15. If you want to see where the $ is going (gambling):http://www.intrade.c...isc/scoreboard/ You can wager on items like these (Yes/No): The Dow Jones to close on or above 13,000 on 30 Dec 2012 al-Assad no longer president before midnight ET 31 Dec 2012 The United States or Israel to bomb Iran before the end of 2013 Magnitude 9.0 (or higher) earthquake to occur before midnight ET 31 Dec 2012
  16. Wow! I know some women that really like Outlook but that's a new level.
  17. Here is an update from NYCBBB: http://nycbbb.com/2012-emails/beer-2/
  18. Looking for some understudies
  19. Outstanding!!! Thanks
  20. Anyone have info on which lot at MetLife will be the one for TBD and other Bills followers to go for tailgating for those of us traveling to the game? You know the whole Pinto experience, et al.
  21. If TT is on the opening day roster, the Bills are stuck for $2.5M. Also weigh that when making a determination.
  22. Correct I have seen the performance twice. That is an anecdote that I forgot to include. If I had not taken the handle Mr Info, I might have selected Mr. Floyd as I am an uber fan. I have shared my rare Floyd outtakes, curios, and bootlegs with TBD memebers. For you Floyd fanatics - head over to http://www.yeeshkul.com/. I am a contributing member there. The site name has an interesting origin that you can find there.
  23. Just two nights ago, Roger Waters joined GE Smith for a blues tune at The Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett NY to celebrate GE's birthday:
  24. I have followed LA for quite awhile and want to believe he did not juice. I recently visited with a friend who is in the top three amateur cyclist/triathletes in his age range in the world. He knows amateurs that are juicing and believes it is impossible that LA did not. It is known that doping has been going on in cycling since the tour began in 1903 and before testing was ever performed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doping_at_the_Tour_de_France This is still all hearsay and I am not 100% convinced that LA did but if it is true than I am ok with it after hearing some of the other competition doping tales that my friend relayed. This guy is a straight shooter and I believe him. Regardless, LA is still an amazing athlete. Doping is fairly common on the Tour and the riders are looking for that extra edge. If many other riders along with him were doping and he still won 7 tours, that is amazing. If he won that many without doping, well...they should do some testing to determine if he could be an alien.
