Mike is the President that we all want, with one catch: he's smart enough to NOT run for office!

Actually going out someplace is lazier than doing the setup and then having the machine complete the other 99% of the work. Yes.

Has anyone ever had a problem adapting to a new keyboard or mouse? I have been using MS Intellimouse Explorer mice just about since the turn of the century, when "wheel mice" and "laser mice" were pretty new. I got my hands on a MS Sidewinder mouse for a steal [open-box special, never used...

Mike, this is the kind of behavior that I absolutely loathe. This is an extreme case of the "millennials" story that was posted on the forum a month or so ago. These kids are a product of the baby-boomers who feel guilty for all of the time they had to spend working, away from home, and they...

That girl is not attractive. If in porn, she wouldn't make it far. I think it's her mouth and jaw, coupled with her nose, that really ruin her looks. I wouldn't even get to know her personality - couldn't get past the looks. She's a fucking dog, with the brains to match.

That sucks - I wouldn't care if the PS3 was a little bigger to accommodate, so long as they took 3.5" hard drives instead. 2.5" = smaller capacity = laptop = more expensive because of it's physical size.

What you are experiencing is not uncommon. More than half of the people in my "shop" are former Marines. The ones I work with, for the most part, you cannot tell that they REALLY miss it, but there are a few who we work around or integrate with who truly miss it. The worst case that I have seen...

It's not crazy at all. I am left-handed, play most sports right-handed, shoot rifle right, shoot pistol left.

Maybe your buddy is assuming that if he is left/right handed that he should shoot that way? He might fare better lining the sights up with his other eye. Maybe he is nervous. Maybe he is placing the wrong part of his finger on the trigger, and is not getting a nice, smooth, even squeeze. Hell...

That's why, in the military at least [and probably most industrial companies], when working around gas tanks you are required to use intrinsically safe flashlights! I could see that happening by accident when using a flashlight, but come on - fuel/vapor + nearby spark/flame = ?

Did she mention the required earplugs and paper-bag beforehand?

My wife has the uniform, but I don't have the nice car to show off with her. I hope to have another Supra someday.

I guess "The Man Show" didn't get him the pull I thought it would. 9 out of 10 Juggies are better looking AND less annoying than her. WTF is Jimmy thinking?

+ to Evo on looks. The Imprezza has gone further downhill in the looks department every new generation.

Don't worry about it - chances are, they won't have you do it. They monitored your heart while you pedaled [at the same rate the whole time] from resting heart rate, increased resistance until you got up to your target heart rate, kept you there for a little bit, then let all load off the...

I have to tell you, as bad as I wanted to get a retirement check in my late 30's/early 40's, and be free to get another job, getting out has done wonders for my morale, technical prowess and life in general. There are very few things that I miss about the military. If you have the desire to get...

I don't understand why people are constantly trying to find new ways to get high. In these days of wretched excess, aren't there already enough ways to ruin yourself?

I had a sub-12 minute 1.5 mile run. Pushups and situps were always maxed for me. With a 34" waist, my scores weren't very impressive.

Hurlburt Field - "tip of the spear" - they started mandatory PT for my unit [flightline maintenance] in early 2003, if not earlier, as I recall. Later they found some people were trying to skip out, so they made sign-in mandatory as well. They would have people sign in on a computer with their...

I haven't used TurboTax since back when the program would dial a modem into them directly. That must have been mid-late 90's, but before '98. I've been using H&R Block online for years now. I might go into one of their stores this year and have it done though; looks like getting out of the...
