It is all, of course, just personal taste...but I think the U-2 is one of the prettiest planes ever made. The C-130 is just a truck...and trucks just look like trucks.

I have a pretty impressive string of only veggie patties going. If I can lay off the sauce there seems to be no end in sight, I never get sick of them. (I get drunk and order pizza...aka the curse of the modern fat man).

I pretty much lived on beans for a solid 10 years. I still eat a lot of them, but not twice a day every day. For a while, I had the most atrocious gas you can imagine. In both quality and quantity. Roommate at the time told me he was moving out if I didn't go see a doctor. Needed a roommate, so I did.

Me: "What can I do about having really bad gas all the time?"
Doctor: "Fart more. It won't hurt you."

I walk in the door, let one rip and state "Doctor's orders!"

Also, along with gut flora I think it has something to do with some people being weird about where they shit. There are a lot of people that just won't drop a deuce anywhere but a few "safe" locations, and they end up walking around holding it in. I stopped being so particular and went wherever I was when I needed to...unless it was the trainspotting bathroom or something....and I never have gas anymore. :*(

I don't believe you.

mod up somebody.

9 got together with 6 and they hatched this plan to stop that evil bastard 7 from eating 9 again.

Man, if it gives people motion sickness already......portal already has situations that are hard on the brain with only a monitor...

The idea of being represented by a number and not their name was more than a little troubling to our (my, if you are not American) ancestors. I don't think it really bothers most people nowadays.

They tried to implement a national patient ID system with all the HIPPA stuff. Couldn't agree on how to do it. Or, the big players made sure it didn't go anywhere because they viewed it as a step along the way to single payer.

A dirty little secret of healthcare IT is that pretty much industry wide they are just as greedy/useless as the executives with the yachts at the payers that have been getting (deservedly) hammered in these posts.

I doubt it would have mattered when they started. I don't necessarily mean in house IT, mainly vendors. Every new government mandate that changes something with billing is just another excuse to gouge their customers.

I don't think it is really that much easier. It is somewhat easier, yes. It is bolded hell easier? Not IMO.

You can do this (with any game, steam or not) in steam

PC gamers are also sure. One of the unexpected side effects of consoles taking over. I built my gaming rig in 2009. I upgraded the video card about 6 months ago because I got a 2560x1440 monitor and wanted to run everything in that res. I did not need to upgrade the video card otherwise. I buy any game I like and do not need to even consider whether it will run, it will. If you build a decent machine you do not need to worry about this anymore. Maybe, and I mean maybe, you would run into trouble when the next gen consoles come out and the performance bar gets bumped up a notch...but how often does that happen?

Yes, that is amusing to hear considering how much myself and my PC gaming friends used to bitch (we have given up) about how much consoles were dumbing-down/ruining games. Not looking to dig that corpse up again....just saying it is funny to hear a console gamer complain about it.

Hehe....You are wondering what you need to do to stay current = You are getting older.

You don't have any idea what is current and you don't particularly care to find out = You are old.

I read this link as "Physics of the worlds fattest man" when I clicked on it. I was mildly disappointed. That would be more interesting.

Witch-hunt kinda implies that he isn't guilty. He isn't appealing this decision....baseball players ALWAYS appeal....they must have him dead to rights or he and the union would be pitching a fit over it instead of going along with it.

Or just clap your hands. I have yet to meet a goose that didn't run away from that. (I will get attacked by a pack of geese on the way home).
