Buried at sea, obviously.

You guys ever see the redhead singer named Neon Hitch? Song is catchy but not for me..it's her smoking body that gets my attention. Waist down is amazing

EDIT: Her video

Standing in line behind a couple of chirpy college girls at Quicktrip yesterday, I was amused when one of them used her debit card and quite clearly typed in her PIN of "1234".

How come willing code to magically reveal what the bug is never works?

Works for me, maybe you are doing it wrong. The best is telling the dev what he did wrong in the code without having any access to the code. Our vendor hates us because we are too technical.

I am the dev.

Shall I tell you what you did wrong?

Even worse, her lips moved when she did so.

Or did she say it out loud?

In her defense, when she got the card the instructions said, "Enter a four digit pin, for example: 1234"

Please do. This missing 0.03% is killing me.

Sounds like a rounding/truncation error to me.

Variable type conversion possibly?

It is all monetary amounts. $40 of $1.something million.

I'd better change the combination on my luggage.

Going to force myself away from the big computer... I've become addicted to Wordpress and Pinterest! Putting the iPad on the elliptical (need to burn more calories during the day) and going to catch up on some OO downstairs while telcta watches hockey.

My stepson invited himself to stay over tonite. I guess he's afraid of the thunderstorms in OKC. How being in our doublewide is safer than his trailer I don't know. Storms are hours away if they even get here.
He told me his mom would feel better and not worry if he stayed here. His mom rolled her eyes in disbelief when I asked her.
Did I tell you he turned 43 last month?

by **KKBlue** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 12:44 am

Be safe and use a 43 year old shield if you have to :wink:

by **Mr Bubbles** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 1:17 am

Since it does belong in just one thread. Good week for Los Angeles in sports. Best record in the MLB and up two on the Canucks.

by **Kraken** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 2:14 am

A doublewide can withstand twice the winds. Duh.

by **dbt1949** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 6:14 am

No storms arrived yet but I have been hearing him fart all night.

by **KKBlue** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 9:15 am

Oh no! Seems like an epidemic last night, little
sleep and lots of farting!

I like listening to Pandora while surfing around on the iPhone.
Surf Rock Radio is the station, run chicken run is the song (I'll work on a link to prove myself geek worthy).

Hey, did it in under 5 minutes! Not bad

by **Default** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 11:43 am

That would be Link Ray, right?

I have a chance to take a European package trip through the Low Countries, France, Germany and Switzerland. The problem is it's 4200 bucks. The non problem is that everything is included. The problem is, it's through a college in NJ. The non problem is a friend of mine is a student there.
The problem is, she's an attractive blonde.
The non problem is, uh...

Don't "lend" relatives money. They just keep askin' for more. Maybe they pay back 1 out of 5 dollars borrowed - and then try to con you into believing they always repay. As if you'd be having this conversation if that were true.

Random randomness...

Some people are in crisis every freakin' day. They drink, do drugs, get arrested, lose their jobs, etc. - this is what they call bad luck.

Yep. Just went to do thumbs up to build the station and noticed it was Link Ray again. Guess that means I'm a fan now.

When I was "lending" money to friends or SO's relatives, I always expected it to be a donation. Any time I got any money back, I considered it a bonus.

But I also didn't hesitate to tell people that I was not in a position to assist them when I didn't feel like letting them eat through my disposable income.

Well, I got up before him this morning. I went out, put my chainsaw back together and finished cutting the wood and loading and unloading it from my pickup.
He came out, went to his trailer, changed his clothes and left for the weekend, watching me all the time.
Did he offer to help?
I think I'll keep him. :shock:

by **Skinypupy** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 5:25 pm

Got my first ever professional massage this afternoon. I'm amazed at how much better I feel.

by **KKBlue** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 7:44 pm

Skinny! Be careful! Massages are very addictive. They offer all different types to keep you coming back. I did the lava rock one which seemed like an awesome idea. Rocks were way too hot and the massage ended up relaxing me so much and I got the shits

Word to the wise, stick with the traditional for a few months before you experiment.

chicken Strippers and Chocolate covered Happy Ending?

Two, please.

by **KKBlue** » Mon Apr 16, 2012 12:03 am

And I'm at 900 woo-Hoo!
Funny how I accomplished making this goal but didn't cross enough off of my weekend to do list. At least I accomplished one thing I set out to do, ha.

I've noticed for many years now how the older I get the more time flies. It's a serious fact with me. But lately the days are just zipping by. I got up today at 11am..I played a game and blinked and it was 7pm! Did it again and it was 1am...where does time go when Im not watching? My life is melting away. I do enjoy my days though.

Five Reasons Immortality Would Suck.

#2. Time Speeds Up Until You're Insane

How many of you out there are old enough to notice time speeding up? For those of you who aren't, can you remember when you were a kid and the school year finally ended and the summer was about to begin? It seemed like you'd been waiting half your life for it, while at the exact same time your mom was going, "Gah! Summer is here ALREADY?! " The fact is your perception of time speeds up with age. It's just math.

Every year of your life seems shorter than the previous one since each passing year represents smaller and smaller portions of your life. It's the same reason a gift of a thousand bucks would be huge news to you, but meaningless to Bill Gates.

So when you're 100 years-old, a minute will seem six seconds long compared to a minute when you were 10. If you live for 1,000 years, a 50-year marriage spent with a woman for her entire adult life, will have the same significance to you as the girl you dated for a few years back in college. If you live for 100,000 years, she'd basically be the nameless chick you made out with at a Weezer concert.

Live to be a million, and people will seem to be just exploding in and out of existence around you, like a time lapse video of a mountain slowly eroding over eons while cities and nations appear and disappear around it, unnoticed. Entertainment will become a dull blur, as you see the same trends and ideas emerge, go out of style and then emerge again for a new generation who thinks they're brand new. You'll have the pleasure of seeing vampires go out of style, then become cool again in 2060, then 2150, then 2200, before you just stop going to the movies.

See, this is why Dr. Manhattan turned into such a dick in Watchmen.

OMG, I hate you so much and just want to smash your stupid face in in the most painful possible way.
