  1. Huh. Most guys want to bone women, but to each his own.... (Oh, come on. That was a softball right over the plate!)
  2. Nahh. MONORAIL!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEZjzsnPhnw
  3. Yeah. What Plenz said. I sell some firewood at a local campground, and personally use about 4-5 cords a year for heating in later fall, winter and early spring. It's about $180-200 per around here for seasoned hardwood. Actually, a full cord measures 4'x4'x8' = 128 cu. ft. The measure for a face cord is 4'x8'x16". A lot of guys have their own different measurements and/or terminologies for selling wood, tho...
  4. Wow. Just.... Wow. First few notes of the music and I was like "Uh-oh." Where do they go from here?
  5. Just saw the announcement on the Bills FB page. Cancer sucks. Prayers incoming, Kelly family!
  6. All gave some, some gave all. In my own family, I have loved ones changed utterly by military service in WWII, Vietnam and the GWOT. I am so humbled and proud of their service. Even my favorite uncle, who on the USS Midway in postwar Mediterranean ports, was "the Captain's pimp" because he spoke fluent French.
  7. I bit for the discounted boatload and just got a bunch of things. EA Bastards! Retooled my Howard's Flowers after seeing some during the event. The next update should be here soon, and features a seaside/boardwalk theme. Also, let it be noted that you can now click on individual characters in the Move option and put them in storage. Nice, because the Burns Monster was really creepy and there was no way to get rid of it before.
  8. IIRC, it was a limited-time premium item.
  9. I'll be getting enough tomorrow for the motel just by visiting my neighbors. So, mrags, you're free from the agreement and if anyone's close to something, we can give 'em all there.
  10. "Chinatown" ----> "The Two Jakes" How they could go from the first that won the Oscar to a complete POS....
  11. Kevin Pollack's Chat Show is often good. I listen to the America's Test Kitchen one sometimes.
  12. Yep, that was my littering @ ~3 a.m. I splurged for the Sprawl-Mart.
  13. Unless you get stevestojan lucky on the scratch-offs, I don't think there's any way you could win 900(?) donuts that's equivalent to if you buy $52 worth from the store or preferably Gil whenever there's a discount (day-old donuts, Christmas donuts, etc.). As I said, I put some down from an iTunes gift card I got over the holidays. I mean... I don't really buy music on this (YouTube and actual CDs for me, mostly). I've gotten a few books and a couple of apps, but my iPad is basically a portable Internet/camera/music/old-school-gaming device. I don't mind plinking down from a gift card, but actual dollars that come from my pocket? Ehhh.....
  14. I don't have many at the moment and still have 5 hours 'til I can visit my Springfield neighbors.... I really hope they extend this a bit as they've done sometimes so those of us who are really close can get these.
  15. OK guys, this thing is still on. I'm reminded of the picture if the frog chking the duck as his head is being swallowed, with the caption, "Never give up!" If you've got eggs, keep 'em comin' please!! I'm at 10,850 / 12,500 for the motel.
  16. I don't know what time exactly. It's been at 6 sometimes, midnight another, but sometimes it's been delayed by a day or a week.... When there's an update, there's an update. I plincked down $50 from an iTunes card I got for Christmas. I dunno, man. Is the arena worth $20 to you? There's going to be stuff in this game that you like but it costs $ and I dunno if I'm ever going to spend on this game again. If I get an iTunes card, sure, maybe. But you get quite a bit for free. And for the most part, that's fine. Also, you don't really know whether these things are going to be available after this event for less donuts than you'd be spending right now. I guess what I'm trying to say is, unless you REALLY like Drederick Tatum and HAVE to have him, I wouldn't pop for it. Actually, I've rethought for the motel too. I'll just save what I've got left for other stuff that might come up. I'm really leery about putting my cc on this iPad. I'd much rather just work it through the gift cards and subtract from the subtotal.
  17. Just put a bunch on ya, since mrags said he's peaked with Willie. Hope we can get 'I'm for you too....
  18. Got the arena. (That's what I was saving the empty spot for in the same baseball stadium land module, to share parking spaces.) Just delivered some mrags... will have more later after I can visit my neighbors. Meanwhile, I wanna try to see how many I can get toward the motel. The # of donuts for the Buy Now option decreases the closer you get to that 12500 snake goal. If I get it to under 100, I may be tempted.... Section, uhh... I'll take 'em!
  19. Thanks! IIRC, in the Simpsons movie, that's how they had it configured. Once the containment dome came down, all the people in the church ran into Moe's and all the people in Moe's ran into the church.
  20. This situation loses a lot of merit when the SCOTUS recently ruled that books bought overseas for pennies on the dollar can be resold here in the US, and that national 'exclusive rights' contracts mean bupkis in this regard. What does that mean for ebooks? What does it mean for DVDs or movie downloads? Inconsistent much?
