Seriously OT: The Real 3rd Thready...

Bought a Macbook yesterday first mac I have ever owned.

Got woken up at 5:15am this morning from some jackass with the "wrong number". It's the second time this person has called me (with a Restricted Number"). The first time it was some girl and guy, and after I asked who it was they said for me not to worry about it and then I hear a loud ass modem sound :screwy: Today it was obviously some young kid calling and when I told him he had the wrong number for the 2nd time, he says "don't be hatin'" :wtf: What really makes me uneasy is that my friend lost his phone a day or 2 before the first call came in, but he lives out in the country so I doubt someone else found it.

Oh...and it snowed like 3-4 inches last night. Guess I have to stop being lazy and put on my studded snow tires now.

Studded for who's pleasure?

fuck man i cant win, my oil pan is cracked

Studded for who's pleasure?
For my driving on ice and slush pleasure.

so its cold as a polar bear's balls in chicago right now. This is my car's first winter since I've been in tallahassee every winter since I've had it. As I walk away from the car I hear a hissing sound :shakehead

Figuring I caught a leak in a tire, I roll back and inspect, but no visible punctures and now the hiss has stopped. Now I hear a drip drip drip from under the hood. Nothing hitting the ground, so its something internal. Fucking awesome! :thumbsup: Just in time for me to make the 1500 mile trip from Chicago to Detroit to Jacksonville to Tallahassee in 4 weeks. This should be fun

it's just cold here...with clear sunny sky's

Its been low 20's here every night, but no snow or anything. I put the order on a computer, suposed to ship end of this week or first of next. No more public libary... no more fast connection :(

it's been sub 20's at night here :frown:

we help out a lot around the daughter's school. the school has decided to enter a float in the snowflake parade. we were invited to ride the float which would be great if the parade wasn't 7:00pm...and the 9yr old isn't hearing anything about cold :banghead:

who told them it was a good idea to have a parade outside in the winter at night!? :screwy:

So you're in a no-win situation... your options:

A) Chalk the parade idea and piss off the 9 yr old
B) Go to parade, freeze, and get sick
C) Go to parade, freeze, and daughter gets sick... you spend the next week taking care of sniffles etc
D) Go to parade, freeze, daughter is fine, but gets sick at school because every other kid got sick in the cold

it's been good weather here. lil chilly at night. somewhere round the 60's.

Frost on the car this morning 24 degrees while driving to work it was 68-70 last week :screwy:

Speaking of parade floats... the town near me had a parade and some drunk guy sped through town driving the lead float with some kids on it. He got so busted...

I don't have a leg to stand on. her DR doesn't believe cold causes colds. I guess some study was done long ago... I wanna say it's nazi related but I dunno for sure. I guess they took a group of people and stuck them under sprinklers in the cold and nothing happened.

as for school they have the kids play outside everyday unless it's snowing really good. I swear like only 3 days during the entire winter qualifies for indoor (in gym) play.

so I guess my option is:
E) bundle up the kid really good, grin & bear it

life sucks... :(

life sucks... :(

only if your the new guy in prison:evillol:

well sold the PSP that i just got so i could do some stuff for the family...yeah, my lil sacrifice for the family...but i'll get another one in a few weeks

i'm still trying to sell my parts. but no one buys them and i keep getting more.

life sucks... :(

cut with the river not against!!!

It has been proven multiple times that tempature has no relation to the "cold" sickness.

surely there must be some chain of events that links the cold to the abundance of sicknesses that circulate during the winter months

Or is it that there are just as many sick people year round and we only notice the sickness during the winter since we're brought up to believe that cold=sick??? A lil cognitive misattribution?

Where's Bill Nye The Science Guy when you need him?

so the rex is definitly broke. the #3 exhaust side on the head is trashed.

bet you wont punch it though

I tried to post in here, but apparently it didn't work.

But the cold weather weakens your immune system. So if you already have something in your system, you're more likely to get sick from it than in warm weather.

i just want a running engine.

I don't have an immune system.

I was born sick....it's when i'm healthy you know something is wrong :icon16:

^ lol

Monday...............





:swear:

yup...have a lot of work to do this week :(

on a side note...i went and saw Happy Feet...i give it :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Playing with carbon fiber again... dont know why I'm waisting it on the polish turkey, I only have a few yards left and its still impossable to get. :(

ask some of the car modeling guys

So I did the whole NYC city thing this weekend. Went to Rockefeller Center saw the tree. Did the ice skating went to fao schwartz, Central Park, Macy's, Tiffanys, Disney store then ended the night with How the Grinch Stole Christmas on Broadway. Not a bad date. Ice skating real fun I haven't done that since i was a little boy.

:icon16:


the weekend before last our city slickin' arses decided to get a forrestry permitt ($5) and cut down our x-mas tree. it was our roomie jon, jer, vic, my bro, and myself. my brother proceeds to cut the first tree he finds and then starts bugging for us to cut one. so we find a decent tree. a bare spot from growing next to another tree but it's over-all good. my brother throws the trees in the truck and ratchets them down :uhoh: get home and unload the tree to find my brother broke some branches on the opposite side of the bare spot. put a bare spot in the corner and a bare spot still shows sweet! we have a 10ft charlie brown tree. :banghead: since we have gone out and killed it we felt too bad to get rid of it. I got creative with forrest green garland (not the shiny stuff) and carefully placed orniments......it looks like a normal tree :screwy: :dunno:

w00t for a christmas miracle! :grinno:

Sounds like me and my lady this weekend..She makes me cut down one tree drag in 1/2 mile then she is like wait no lets get this one haha.

I haven't had to deal with a christmas tree in years. Once my mom realized we wouldn't care if the tree was eliminated, she scrapped it. Now there's a festive christmas table... yes, a Christmas table... and just like the tree we used to use, the Christmas table doesn't get put away til about August :disappoin

My family is one step away from celebrating Festivus

we got a 3' tree :)

Is the Christmas table at least shaped like a tree?

Whiners!

At least you don't have a hand-me-down fake tree from your parents. Yes, I have a fake tree because I'm supposedly allergic to real trees. And this fake tree is cut/broke at the top. I thought that was the reason for my getting it. But it turns out that my dad cut the top on purpose to fit it in their low ceiling place. That's not the bad part. The bad part is my parents are notorious for their use of moth balls. After dousing the tree with half a can of Lysol and half a bottle of Febreze it still smells like mothballs. But in the corner all lit up with the ornaments it looks really nice... so I guess I can't complain. And looking at it really puts me in the x-mas spirit.

Tis the season to bust out the slot track. I have one of those slot car tracks in my study all year round collecting dust. I cleaned it up and took some sand paper to the metal contacts... got a nice new AFX SRT H.O. slot car too... old Shelby Cobra Daytona. After the the track gets enough electrical current in it, the way I have it set up, the cars fucking fly!!!!! If I get a video camera for x-mas, I'll record it and post it up.

our tree is fake...don't like cutting down trees

my son has a slot car track...nothing like drifting around a curve then flying off the track

i still need to buy a tree.

I need to find a table thats shaped like a tree

got a tree last night. the wife was happy. she says it feels like christmas now. but she is still mad that we can't go home for christmas because i spent so much money on the rex.

I have a christmas bonfire every year. This year I have about 30 oak trees I cut down a few years ago, should be a big one. I couldnt live in the city...

.....or is it the city can't live with you in it? :icon16:

:( not cool. I could live the hell out of a city...

Anyone want to buy a computer, I may buy a few and resell them... I can get awsome deals if I buy about 10... dont ask any questions though.

:lol: :lol: :lol: You're officially Hustle Man from this day forth

HM>TSC :biggrin: :sunglasse

Thats all fine and dandy, but I allways put a The infront of my name to distinguish myself.

The other off topic is starting to catch up with this one... excellent.

oh, where are my manners?... The Hustle Man

i need to find somewhere other than OT to post

I couldnt live in the city...

:( not cool. I could live the hell out of a city....

will the real TSC please stand, please stand up.




I have a feeling finding a tree shaped table cloth will be harder than finding a tree shaped table :icon16:

I'm thinking about turning Emo once I get my computer working again, and getting a myspace page... naw, I changed my mind.
