  1. You can check them for response with a cigarette. Replace them every 5 years. Handy guide courtesy of our Northern neighbors: http://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/en/co/maho/yoho.../inaiqu_002.cfm And when you purchase smoke detectors, buy the combination photoelectric/ionization units. The ionization part reacts faster to flames, the photoelectric faster to smoldering smoke. http://extension.missouri.edu/publications...ub.aspx?P=G1907
  2. It is. Better yet would be those freecreditreport.com folks running over the Geico gecko, causing them to slide into a building and wiping out the Progressive Ins. lady with the red lipstick.
  3. I'd just put it into the "funny things that happen when people are going for an ovoid ball at high speed" category.
  4. Amazing how my reading comprehension is recently failing, eh?
  5. Thanks. I guess I needed some education...three worth, no less.
  6. How long did it last? One season IMO.
  7. Foster Grant, Ban-Ray, Blu-Blocker, are new sponsors?
  8. What does this "Kumbaya" post have to do with the subject of this post?
  9. R.I.P.
  10. ...Against a TB club with rookie HC and OC (who both called a terrible game IMO, showing no idea how to combat a blitz...who went on to call pass after pass mostly in the middle with an immobile QB, an idiotic 4th down try at mid field etc.). Were I TB and watched BUF go after my QB - my view was that they were trying to injure him (Mitchell comes to mind), I'd be crackbacking and leg whipping and extract a price, despite my play-calling inanity. NO gets the game films to review, of course.
  11. Dunno - my guess is that the admonition came after a poster put up an avatar that used MS Paint or some such, to make an image depicting male genitalia directed at Jauron.
  12. Ohio increases as of 10/1/09: Temp tags: $10.50 > $18.50. Vanity plate renewal: $15 > $50 . Also, increases in license renewal fees: Renewal: $24.00 > $26.75. Vision test: $1.00 > $2.75 (it is required, and you have to pay for that 30 seconds of civil servant time). Transaction Fee: $1.00 > $3.50 (this is handed over to the deputy registrar, whatever that is). Lamination fee: Remains at $1.50 (yes - you pay extra for the required digital photo and the plastic). So in total, $27.50 > $34.50.
  13. Who is Tampa's OC? I'm guessing it's Stevie Wonder...
  14. Add in some boos for the NFL. T-W is wiling to carry it on a sports tier for those who wish to pay for it, but the NFL wants it to be paid for by all subscribers - the deal there being that the ad exposure (and ad revenue for the NFL) is more widespread.
  15. The beer will flow today, boys!
  16. Not so far. 5 sacks on Rodgers now, and a punt return to the GB 29. You still have 2:33 to hope for, though.
  17. Yep. CIN's D looks to improve on last year's #12. Good pressure from their DL. They're lacking a nickle CB, though. Benson's having a decent outing - 25 for 130 so far...GB's switch to a 3 -4 seems a little rocky.
  18. CIN's having a good game against GB. 28 - 21. A pick 6 and a short field pick on Palmer, otherwise it's a 28 - 7 game. 4 sacks of Rodgers, a hard hit by Maualega on RB Grant for a fumble.
  19. Is it Direct TV that that renews your contract obligation back up to full term every time they send a customer new/replacement/upgraded equipment?
  20. We're overdue for one of Tossy's witty posts.
  21. Nah...the post was for Sketch. He can be as hyperbolic as I can. Hyperbaric, too.
  22. Sure. He'll pick up Fletcher's 12 years' worth of savvy in a game or two...
  23. Here's a book recommendation for you, JA. Boy Training, introduced by Ernest Thompson (Chief Scout, Boy Scouts of America), edited by John L. Alexander, (Secretary, Boy Scouts of America). Associated Press, 124 E. 28th Street, NY, NY and London, 47 Paternoster Row, E.C., 1911. Old words lost but still ring true. Too bad it's out of print - it would really, really help today's parents - yours, I suspect. If you think that's an unfair shot, so be it and then go look into your own mirror. You've never had any compunctions about taking a swipe at me. An aside - one of the contributors was G. Walter Fiske of Oberlin College. I don't seek out old books or autographs, but my copy that I purchased in a bag of old texts in a public library sale was from his library and has his signature. Serendipity. I'll pass it on to someone else. As you may know, Oberlin is noted for it's then unheard-of 1830's admissions of blacks and women. Da*n those Presbyterians, eh?...
