  2. Give that man a prize! In season 4, "Eclipse" was played in an episode.
  3. Definitely - I liked how they cut the song so that the vocals would play during the credits. FWIW: non-Floydians may not know but the lyrics are "One of these days I'm going to chop you into little pieces." Apropos for the show. Those were the only lyrics that drummer Nick Mason ever sang in a Floyd song.
  4. Can't top yours but one of my sons (he was 5 at the time) barfed on a plane when we were both in first class. As you can expect, the other first class passengers expect that when you get in first class you are away from that kind of stuff....but, surprise. No projectiles but a nasty aroma. I noticed a gag reflex from the lady across from us when I took him to the bathroom to get him cleaned up.
  5. "When I was a child, if a kid stunk at baseball he was relegated to manager or deep, deep left field. " Kinda weird. When I played, the crappy players were put in right field, not left field.
  6. Actually, there are three locations: (Hugenot Rd, Shoppes at Belgrade), 17th St near The Farmers Market, and on Parham Rd close to interchange with I-95. To get back to your original ?, I M Hipp to that. You mean lunch? The latter two locations are best for me. Obviously, this week is out. Setup a date and those of us interested can confirm and bring our anti-hypertensive, anti-ulcer, and anti-cholesterol medications.
  7. Maybe it's just me..... The biggest investment in your life and you don't have a security system with Fire/Smoke detectors that automatically calls the FD? Even if theft, etc. are not an issue where one lives, the fire detection/auto notification is worth the price. And there's a discount on homeowner's insurance. What happened to them is awful but buyer beware. We are all trying to save $ but the information regarding all types of services is readily available and people choose not to research, ask the proper questions, or compare. Unless Vonage promised service via 911, I do not believe they should be held responsible. I see a lot of people blaming others (people, companies, etc.) for their misfortunes when they made ill-advised or misinformed decisions where it was their responsibility to investigate the impact of their choice.
  8. Not big on this type of thing but here goes: Norton That is a Honeymooners reference as he was living in a sewer when we adopted him. Great attitude, very vocal and affectionate. My wife has turned him into an indoor cat but he was amazing when he first came to visit us. He would bring home small rabbits, moles, and birds he had caught and eat nearly the whole thing. One time, I snuck outside when he brought home a small rabbit just to watch him devour it. I had enough when he got through eating the ears and started on the head and headed back in the house. I ate very little that night but it was a cool thing to see.
  9. Sr. Scientist in R&D for a Pharmaceutical Company. I have submitted an abstract for a talk at the Eastern Analytical Symposium this fall. See you there.
  10. I have the original poster for the first Spiderman movie before they were re-done. That baby is in mint condition and framed. In the original poster, the Twin Towers were reflected in Spiderman's eye. The first ones were released in the summer of 2001 even though the movie would not be out until 2002. Distribution of these posters stopped after 9/11 and were replaced with ones in which the towers were removed.
  11. My wife and I have seen them a couple of times. Good musicians, lots of energy If I were to offer similar bands, I would say....hmmm...String Cheese Incident, Phish...throw some Newgrass genre in the pot and out pops a good band. Based on some of the other music I have seen you mention, you'll enjoy.
  12. I don't know but it seems this article as well as a bunch of others somewhat contradict your claims and that of your sources. Correctly balancing protein & carbs I eat a high-carb, low sugar, low protein diet and work out constantly. The important aspect is that I only eat complex carbs (low glycemic index). Low glycemic food is especially helpful in assisting those who want to lose weight. Low glycemic index foods will increase the sugar levels in the body to sustain energy levels for longer periods of time. I am not trying to lose weight as I am about as lean as I can be. But it provides a good deal of energy to me even when I am unable to eat for a while. Though everyone is somewhat different in their metabolism and you are correct about the high sugar aspect of the typical American diet, this type of eating regime helps maintain weight loss. Besides the high-calorie meals that we enjoy, the other killers (no pun) are snacks and desserts. Going out to eat is always a challenge but every place has some kind of salad or fish.
  13. Please post a link to medical facts regarding this. The WHO, DHSS, NACNE, and others recommend eating 11-20% of total daily calories. Toward the higher end if one is an athlete. To me, that does not qualify as "rich in protein". The typical American diet is higher than this amount (as well as fats) but that's why a majority of the population is overweight.
  14. I could see where one of the storylines could be headed: The Others trying to use Walt to develop his special powers to conjur them off the island. Maybe Walt recognizes these developing powers and instead gets him back with Micheal and the rest of the flight and then conjurs them all off the island and blows off the Others. Many ways this could go.
  15. I live out-of-the-area (500 miles away) so my real cost is actually quite a bit more than that. This is a legitimate question - several years of futility and the biggest season ticket holder base this past season since the early 90s. Are people going to return based on what has transpired in the last couple of weeks?
  16. Perhaps I should wait until after the HC is chosen but for me this offseason, more than any other, has me wavering on this decision. I'll go first and commit to unsure but HC decision will do it for me. Another first-time HC and I'm heading for the bus.
  17. Whatever is on-sale at the supermarket....but no flavors.
  18. I have a few friends and family members that work at Michelin headquarters in Clermont-Ferrand in the center of France. Maybe that area does not have the other activities that interest you.
  19. Depends where you live in the Richmond area. I can walk to a bakery, a few bars and restaurants, and a butcher. But, I see your point. I purposely chose to live somewhere in this area that was similar to what I remembered. It is possible to find it, it just takes a lot of searching.
  20. If you ask me, I think they did it on purpose. Mike = Hank? 536983[/snapback] Damn, I caught it, too and GDamn it, you posted just before me.
  21. I certainly hope he was misquoted but in McKissic's column in the Buff News, there is this: "We've got to slow them down (and) we do," Mularkey said. "We have a penalty. It allows them to keep going. We have a tipped ball, guys are around it, touchdown. Instead of getting out of there with a positive, we end up not finishing the drive. I think those type of plays, they take the sail out of your wind a little bit and that's the most frustrating part." Hank's was ''took the sails out of our wind.'' but it's close enough.
  22. After watching this episode a few weeks ago (and laughing out loud when I heard this dialogue), I finally got around to re-viewing my Tivo copy. No background is necessary if you have not seen the show as the words are enough: Christian: A pre-nup? Kimber: It's a fidelity pre-nup. I had my lawyers draw it up. [pause] It states that after the wedding we agree on two things, OK, no more porn for me and no more affairs for you. [pause] I'm still a businesswoman with assets you know - I've got a reputation to protect. [Pause as Christian reads the pre-nup] Kimber: [breaking in and pointing to a page] Don't worry, there's a clause in there that still allows for threesomes. Geez...what a gal. BTW - Kimber (Kelly Carlson) pics
