  1. What provider do you use? This can also make a difference in your choice. Verizon has better coverage for talking, however AT&T has faster internet speeds for 3G phones. Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  2. Except this is a very OLD joke. WHO THE FUCK CARES< Sadsack When somebody is praising the WRITING it's an important distinction. Except perhaps they're implying that geeks of this nature can't think of original comebacks, so revert to the known. Sheldon fits this mold. ;^) Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  3. I'd go with a professional grade. Those sold at Home Depot and Lowes are lower grade that come in sections and aren't as sturdy. Had my last one for 30 years and just traded it out because it was time. It was still working fine, though. (upgraded my garage door and opener at the same time) Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  4. So how long should I stay away while our over-aged population learns to navigate this new adventure? I mean, it's all well and good until your car gets crunched. Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  5. My city (pop: 65,000) is about half way through building 2 round-abouts at 2 adjoining intersections. There's a battle between the positive and negative viewers. Each have their own detailed studies. The positive is hoping 'to beautify' the area and provide a greater flow of traffic. The negative point to studies indicating increased traffic accidents and mayhem. To be honest, I side with the negative. 3 main reasons why (for my town): 1) We have a greater than 50% elderly population that just won't get it and cause an increase in confusion and bottlenecking as they try and traverse through the 'maze, as they see it'. 2) The city has chosen to decrease the lanes from 2 to 1 just before the round-abouts, funneling traffic, which IMO will frustrate people who, lets just say, aren't the patient type. 3) The city has decided (and this is the most insane part) to put in back-in-diagonal parking around the circle of the round-abouts. We're a few months away from this project being finished. Was supposed to be done this month, however it's proving to be a much longer production. For me (and alot of other citizens I've talked with), we're just going to avoid the area altogether and take parallel side roads. What we do already during this building. We're creating more congestions on residential streets, however who wants to be a part of the confused, elderly drivers, learning how to drive without the stoplights they've already known and trusted.

  14. http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_19101677 Bwhahahahaha! Posting it here as well, just in case they take the news report down . . . Hey, this should be in the "Incidents Forum", right? Not! Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  15. Just saw this movie last night and I have to agree with you that it's a brilliant movie. Very well done. It also may be more poignant for me in that I just lost a dear friend last month. This friend was my best friend from childhood. She had a wonderful family ( 4 grown sons and a husband who loved her dearly ). She was involved in her community and everyone knew her. The church was packed for her memorial service. But what was even more amazing was that in her death, many people benefitted. You see, she was an organ donor. The stories that came out of this tragedy are nothing short of a miracle. A rare blood and tissue type was shared with so many recipients who had been waiting on 'the list' for a long time. I could go on and on, but let's just say that watching Will Smith's movie last night brought me to tears. Great bit crocodile ones. Like I said, brilliantly done.

  17. "Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition."

  18. Sell the footage to Olympus! It'd be a great ad for their product. I'm assuming that the camera still works? Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  19. So, then, is this you? (warning: NSFW) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY4gJoKwtAQ (VA Hurricane Weather Report) How is that NSFW? Perhaps you missed the lower transmission was exposed? Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  20. They might not have power, or might have better things to do. I'm wondering how east coast DZs in Irene's path have fared / will fair? I hope well with little or no damage. I heard that Ellington (Skydive Connecticut) flew their Otter off to safer ground. I called Home Depot's help line for a completely unrelated hardware question yesterday and was told that they were completely swamped with thousands of calls for generators. Unfortunately they had completely run out of their local supply back east, but were hurriedly shipping as many as they could, as quickly as they could, to the upcoming disaster areas. Guess those further north just don't expect this kind of storm to normally reach them! Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

  22. yeah we actually have a specially built ambulance for people like her. i This patient was a 'him'. In fact, the heaviest patients we've seen have all been men. Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  23. The patient was a "he". And yes, he's on SSI with his ever enabling mother as his caregiver. Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  24. Where I work we have one of the very few bariatric facilities around. Our heaviest patient has been 750#. Our equipment is rated for 1,000#. She'd be out of luck if she reached her goal! Someone's got to break it to her that her one ton goal just isn't going to happen! (btw, that 750# patient *did* land on a nurse and broke her up pretty bad! On permanent disability now, I hear) Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  25. Enter the Chevy Volt. And on its heels: MINI E! :^) But would still love to have the
