  1. As I said above, monkeys are consummate escape artists. But hell...even my cats can escape through a sliding door. I'm convinced that fully 80% of Americans are too stupid to accomplish what I see cats and dogs do on a daily basis.
  2. www.google.com Seriously, it's not like this is esoteric information. You can probably find out how to do it on homedepot.com, as well.
  3. With friends like that, I can see why you'd think you're reasonably intelligent.
  4. Moved a TV, mini-fridge, and microwave into the bathroom, myself. I don't want to miss a thing.
  5. He also had a save percentage overall of something like .700. Letting in three out of every ten shots has a way of rattling goalies too. And on that last regulation goal, he wasn't helped by having his own defenseman (I missed who) knock the rebound right back at him. It may have been a weak goal...but pathetic defense (or random chance, whichever it was) doesn't help much either.
  6. Well...he hasn't said anything grotesquely stupid in the past half hour. Plus...that avatar...
  7. Combined: .768 save percentage.
  8. I want that DVD... I finally got my computer set up - the one with the tuner card and huge, fast hard drive for video capture and DVD burning - about thirty seconds AFTER the game ended.
  9. Actually, as someone who has bipolar disorder... ...well...yeah, that's about as close as you'll ever come to it.
  10. Did I call that or what?
  11. Oh, I completely agree... ...but colostomy bag instructions???
  12. Where the !@#$ did that come from????
  13. They've got the box score right otherwise...but they haven't changed the final score.
  14. If this overtime lasts longer than thirty seconds, I'll be amazed.
  15. This is almost like watching that ridiculous Bills-Niners "no punt" game back in '92 or thereabouts.
  16. Jesus. Every time they score, the Senators come right back and answer. Sabres just can't catch a !@#$ing break tonight. Although that defense sucked. How do you leave a guy that open on the goalie's backside?
  17. Funniest thing you've ever intentionally said...
  18. Max should have seen his proctologist before the game and had that rectal-cranial inversion taken care of. Yeeesh. What the hell's wrong with him? I know he's a better player than this... I don't care which side you're rooting for, though...this is just good offensive hockey. Ottawa should win this game - and the series, though it won't be easy - on their stronger defensive play.
  19. It would sure be more interesting than watching the Flyers lose by 8-1 again.
  20. "Shoot...thataway." "Where?" "Thataway. At the target." "But SSgt. JSP, I don't see any target!" "Of course you don't, dumbass! You're firing a non-line-of-sight weapon!" And I'd had you pegged for a loader, too. "Duhhh...Sarge, I forget again. Does the pointy end point forward or backward?"
  21. Makes about as much sense as the movie probably will, though.
  22. Typically different flu viruses still cause largely the same disease: two weeks of misery if you're healthy, a not unreasonable risk of death if you're very young (i.e. an infant) or very old. Typically. Not always. The 1918 flu was so devastating because, for whatever reason, it caused rapidly developing and often fatal pneumonia in 20-40 year old adults, which is very unusual. That's not to say that the current "avian flu" would do so, just to point out that just because most flus act in largely the same manner, it doesn't mean the odd virus can't crop up that causes a very different and potentially far more dangerous kind of influenza. And given that this virus has already demonstrated itself a killer...well, medical professionals have reason to be concerned. It's got a real possibility for causing a killer pandemic. And I know epidemiologists and microbiologists who are reasonably concerned over it. But me personally...I'm not worried, not because I don't see the threat, but because it's not an imminent threat until, as I think I wrote earlier, it passes from person to person to person through the air. And it will likely do that eventually - it's just the nature of flu viruses to develop that ability. But until then, it's basically an exclusively zoonotic infection, and little more than something to keep a wary eye on for most non-medical people. I'm personally more concerned about the current mumps and measles epidemics in the US midwest...
  23. This is going to be a long night for goalies in general, I think. At this rate, whichever goalie can achieve a greater than .500 save percentage wins...
