Craig Kilborn? (Lols- j/k)

It's funny to me that you talk about being from a small town when you're 10 miles away from a city with around 200k people... I don't know if this will ring true with you and your lot, but I am from a small town in Illinois- population around 7,500 and no big town in sight. Seems like when I was younger, I wanted adventure. Now, I'm not talking about Indiana Jones adventure, just something not ordinary. When I was in high school and college, it wasn't all that unusual to get in the car, drive out to Interstate 64 and say, "Right or left?" to whoever was in the car next to me and then we'd drive for hours. It wasn't unusual to drive to Chicago or St. Louis on a whim. I remember driving up to Charleston, IL once to see if the record store there had any copies of Fixed by Nine Inch Nails because I'd been telling a friend of mine what a good album it was and couldn't find my copy. As I got older, for whatever reason, adventure and uncertainty became undesirable- or at least not worth my time. I don't know why exactly, but it just did. I was talking with one of my former maintenance guys this past week and I told him my ideal evening is to get up on a Saturday, take the dog out and such, see who is playing on FSC, get high and watch football for a few hours, then wait for my wife to come home from being out with her friends and fuck me silly. I think part of it is when you're young, you don't know how the world works- different towns (not to mention countries) hold a special allure of difference- different people, different locales, whatever. You go out and explore. What I always ended up finding was that whether I was in little old Mount Carmel or Chicago or Austin or wherever, is it really isn't any different. Sure, there were differences, but nothing was really that different. Maybe your mates have figured this out, maybe they really just are stuck to their barstools. Who knows? In any case, if they don't want to go, they don't want to go. There could be loads of different reasons, many of which have already touched on in this thread. Chances are, they do rate you as a mate but something is keeping them from going to Vegas, so just leave it at that. Have fun with the folks who are going and bring back funny stories for those who don't. Don't make this more than what it is though. There's no sense in ruining a friendship because they don't want to go and you're disappointed so you feel like telling them off or whatever. That just makes you sound like a chick.

The same way you're "friends" with a girl.

ESPN360 was flawless. Funny thing- they just kept the feed from the Hawthorns on during half time. Just random bullshit the entire time. Other than that, business as usual putting up with Lawro.

Anyone keep track of how many times Lawro mentioned the Leyton Orient match? I lost count at 4,529,953.

Cheers Mackem. I don't have Setanter, but I do have ESPN 360.

Found the browser history on the MacBook filled with results for Croatian Friend Finder? Sorry Parky, but I'm still pissed at you for not finishing my book.

Ameobi? Doubtful. Carroll? I don't know... maybe? I think that kid's got some chops to him. For one, he actually looked like he gave a shit those last few games- coming back to play defense on set pieces and whatnot. It's hard to be optimistic about anything NUFC related obviously, but I hope Carroll blossoms in the CCC and puts this team on his back to get us back up in a seaason or two. True 'dat.

Really handy for decoding the random pills you find lying about in the kitchen cabinets, bathroom, etc. and then figuring proper dosages and such.

Former roomate of mine had the album with "Wax Ecstatic" on it. Not a bad album as I recall. Course, this was in like '97...

This is the definition of TL;DR.

You should have said "Your threads are shit" then she could have said "So are yours"

Bazzles - tell Stevie you're a scouser who supports Leeds and lives in Singapore. That'll impress him

Shittest Tatoo candidate? WTF is it? Are these the winners of the most haggard people in the house competition? Plebs one and all. No doubt. And what are we trying to convey/ communicate in these pictures here? "Oh, we're so downtrodden because the government keeps taking our kids away on the basis of us being unfit parents." FFS. I don't know how it is over there, but here, you have to be a total fucking dipshit to get your kids actually taken away from you.

Yeah we still use them, but I don't know how people live off them- the glue tastes like shit.

I used to work with a guy from Thailand. He probably had a sister... Small world.

Junkyard challenge. Junkyard Wars FTW That's what they called it over here.

Won't see 'em coming, will ya? Going for the ninja asthetic?

"Yar, free transfer ye say Master Ashley?"

Jesus, Sirous Black would've been better...

FFS, can this just be over, please? BTW: Google returns nothing but noise on Sirous Mahjoob.

Three movies I've watched the most? 1. The Pink Panther Strikes Again 2. Strange Brew (the Bob and Doug Mackenzie movie) 3. Cannonball Run Megaforce would be a close 4th. I used to watch those movies every day when I was a kid. My dad taped them off HBO for me.

Did you save the file to an external hard drive? That's about the only thing that makes my videos stutter these days... the lag from the external drive to the Mac can make some video files stutter. Dunno. Do you have a bunch of stuff running in the background? Maybe try turning off some unnecessary processes to save on RAM?

What's a wobbler, dude?
