dem beats

I make aweful martinis.

I was fed. And it was glorious! 15 courses. Met a couple after we went for our walk while waiting back at the shuffle board table. They sat next to us. It was nice. Seriously. My wife wont eat, has never eaten, fish. She ate 4 different fish dishes. One with cured salmon also. Such an amazing place. My phone stayed in my pocket the whole time. I didnt even want to snap some photos as we had so much fun. I have never seen her so interested in food and I havent had such a great menagerie of flavors in a looooong time. 15 amazing courses. So wonderful.

Lol I let them put me on the list. The nice part is there is a gun store at the end of the block and a nice gun shop just a block down the other way. Winning for both of us.

2.5 hour wait. I should have showed up 20min before open rather than after open.

I will go to McDonnalds for a McRib. Just to relive my fat kid dayz. Off to travail right now. I HOPE the wife will try stuff. Im so hungry...... thanks for the rec Sean.

So funny. I was just thinking. My king koil comment. They made the BEST latex mattress I have ever seen. It would be the only bed I may have picked over mine.

Sterns and foster make ok beds. They are just old school tech. Nothing that great. Not bad though. It just depends on price point and a few other things. S&F are just Sealy rebadged. Kings down has classically been one of the absolute top of the more regular brand sector. The only ones I would generically avoid are king koil and airspring. I dont like their basic premise.

I think latex is the bestest. Or an innerspring with working boxes. My king boxes have more springs than most mattress'. That doesnt designate it as awesome, but in this csse it is awesome and an indicator to just how aeesome. 750 per king box and a miss matched top that would have been 2000 alone. I paid 375 or so with the frame.

Just waaaaaaay too expensive. And for me. So insanely fucking hot though. Boiling. And brick hard in cold weather.

Dont buy them! Best answer. :-D They are awesome. Seriously.

Take me and they usually drop 82%.

Sean what is a good resteraunt I have not been to?

Wrong store.

And thank you for the link.

i haven't followed this stuff in a while. my pc is about 3 years old now. i regret not selling or parting it out after winning it. still runs games close to maxed out at 2048x1152. this is what they did with $2500 in fall 09 http://www.tomshardw...g-amd,2415.html shame they didn't go with an i7 but i cant be too picky, haha edit: alittle info on new cpu's http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-4.html seems like ivy bridge is the way to go if your running multi gpu's I love toms hardware. IB looks to be the way to go... but 12 logic cores are kinda nifty.

What brand and model? Not a clue, 256gig is all I know, the IT folks ordered a whole bunch and got one for me, but knowing who they are, they didn't get the bottom of the barrel items. That's exactly why I am asking. One does not order a bunch of SSDs without knowing some stuff. Only 2 controlers that I know of One is more in tune with compressed data and the other is more for uncompressed. Im not sure if this has changed but im fairly certain it is.

I havent heard of the R. Sweeeeeeeeeet. Have to look into it.

and the R32 holds its value. Stupid effing car. I would get a GTI for the wife and an R32 for me and pimp that power plant until it was a fire breather.

I know you didn't. I was just addressing that for me since the fit and finish is better and "I know a guy" the materials/parts/labor make the golf one of my prime choices for smaller FWD vehicles. If I could afford to get rid of her cobalt I would in a heart beat.

I just got my 2 new gfx cards in today. Trying to figure out if I should go 4 core hyperthreaded Ivy Bridge, or the 6 core hyperthreaded Sandy Bridge - E. I have to do more reading on socket type and the future for them. Also what will provide me better through put for sending info to the GFX cards. Less channels on PCI Xpres 3 or more on xpres 3. But then I will be doing an SSD raid. Have one smaller one to house windows and then run a couple 250's maybe, or less striped. My old machine was built to be a server, so it will go to my wife to watch Streaming TV on the LCD in the living room and serve all the media.

Our country needs a leader with a huuuuuuge wang.

Damn. Mit is the MAN!

Mimosas and fresh made croissants for breakfast.

YOU'RE THE NEWS! YOU ARE!

I guess it is all really a perspective thing. I look at the vehicles everyone here thinks are so great and I think "what a pile of shit". But I get to work on these cars. I see them with hundreds of thousands of miles on them, and I see the associated repair bills and maintenance costs. I see how they hold up, how well they are really engineered, and how those "cheap looking" plastic interiors hold up when compared to their wrapped brethren. I drive all Buick cars, and Nissan trucks. I don't want the high costs associated with bullshit cars that look pretty, but are substantive crap. I don't want to have to come home only to fix my cars, and if I have to, I want it to be easy. [/rant] The wrapped cars require some pre-thought before purchase. The cheapest 2 cars I've ever owned for maintenance were both M type BMW's. And of course right now I get to drive something work leases for me and picks up the service. I only pay for repairs & tires, but the certified bumper to bumper takes care of everything but the tires. As for the substantive crap, I'm curious what tops your list. The biggest BS on the road? VW/Audi. One of the biggest disappointments from my perspective is Infinity. I can see the Silverado being a burner. They suffer high cost failures, like fuel pumps and cats, older models had issues with water pumps and intake manifolds. I have seen some that eat distributors like they were candy. While I generally prefer GM, I wouldn't own a Chevy V8 truck, unless it was a big block. I am not really a truck fan myself though. I hate working on them, I hate driving them, and they are all pieces of shit. Fords have got to be the worst. Their 3 valve head issues, and coil failures are a nightmare. Camshafts locking up, timing chains falling apart, GEM module failures, rear ends coming apart. I would rather eat Pamela Anderson's blown out hepatitis loaded ass then own a Ford truck. Euros are general junk from a wrench's perspective. Failure rates today are through the roof. Stupid shit like MAF boots falling apart, and they cost a fortune. All their rubber is awful (now we know why Chrysler has so many issues with EVAP hoses falling apart!), and their diagnostic strategy is retarded. The information they offer us is a joke. Their guided fault finding is an insult to a real technician's intelligence, and it leads to the wrong conclusion 50% of the time. Note to German engineers, not everyone working on a car has an education level equivalent to your second grader! Their electronics are horrible, with constant MAF failures, and big ticket items like drive by wire throttle body failures all the time. As a general rule I find most vehicles to be disappointments. I love getting into G35s and seeing the entire interior falling apart around me. You paid what for this POS? But I am a cynic. Totally understand how you feel coming from your POV. I have always loved VW's, would love a AWD Golf-R, but I cannot subject myself to the cheap materials, along with horrible reliability. So maybe VW is a good car to lease, as in unload it at 40k before everything falls to crap. Well..... I cannot say I completely agree. The fit and finishbof the golf or jetta is better than every GM comparable IMHO. Locally the volkswagen community is huge. So I can get a mechanic to instal performance parts cheeper than I could just buy parts on anything comparable. It is an isolated thing but I know I could own and fix a golf and pim p it out for less than the GM or ford alternatives. But again I just know the right audi/volkswagen people.
