  1. What do you think of Mike? I wonder if his whole side plot on this show could be kind of lost if you haven't seen Breaking Bad and have no idea how truly badass he is.
  2. That video is so choppy and from a horrible angle. I don't know how anything on that can be interpreted as a push. But then again, maybe it's more telling at full speed. There had to be something there to be charged and paying a fine for it (not exactly a serious punishment).
  3. He had to replace them all. If he only swapped out a couple, he wouldn't know which ones to swap back out once the plan is done.
  4. Did they catch the teeth early? He could still make it. He didn't have any concert to go to, buy my neighbor's kid just had his out last month and he definitely could have gone somewhere later that night.
  5. The trade would be more specific than that. Anaheim would require Vegas to take a specific player in the trade. I'll throw together a completely BS example using Sabre players since I'm most familiar with them. Imagine you have Larsson and Girgensons available and don't want to lose either. You do not give them Guhle in exchange for not selecting Larsson. You give them Guhle in exchange for them selecting Marcus Foligno. Again, don't read into any of those names, I completely pulled them out of my ass.
  6. I had an interesting situation when I was about to sign on for my current job. They were going to fly me down from Boston in order to see the place and meet people. They booked the airfare for me, so they had to have my DOB to do that. My now boss was very uncomfortable even asking for it because she knew the potential for trouble. I didn't care about it one bit, but then again, I did have a formal offer already.
  7. I just looked. It's already up on AMC's website. I'm just going to go that route. I'm always iffy when it comes to some of those questionable online streams. Anyway, nasty storms last night cost me 2 DVRed shows plus another one the wife was recording. Ha, tapped out. That game eventually got way too big for my phone. It was killing my storage space.
  8. There are no roads in those areas, just parking lots.
  9. I guess I should set the DVR for that just in case I can't catch it on their website before then.
  10. Who needs to block them? Take those bullets like a man!
  11. According to Chef's post, that cop was 100% right. It doesn't matter if the crack actually obstructed your view. It only mattered if he believed it did. The fact that you're citing that law to him only hammers home the point that you are very well aware of the crack and that it could potentially lead to some trouble if pulled over. Maybe you do happen to know that law for other reasons, but it will definitely raise suspicions when you bring that up immediately.
  12. It's not like they have 3 of them. It can't add too much time to the game. If they really want to mess around to increase scoring, I'd expand that no change after an icing rule. Don't allow a change after any rules violation. You put the puck out of play? No change. Offside? No change. The huge one would be after a penalty. Imagine the scenario where a defenseman takes a penalty and you are stuck with 3 forwards and 1 defenseman on the ice for a defensive zone faceoff. That right there would spike scoring a bit. The only times you get to change are on the fly, after the goalie covers the puck, or when the other team makes one of those rule violations. My only concern with all of this is it could lead to some faking of injuries. You'd have to allow a change for injury.
  13. Directv? I lost any show I was DVRing last night. Now I need to figure out when AMC makes this available online.
  14. Kind of defeats the purpose of fast food though, doesn't it? Even if that line moves quickly, it still sounds like more time than it's worth.
  15. My neighborhood is stuck in a crappy situation right now with a lot of work. We're new construction, so there's a lot of warranty related touch ups where we are stuck with the people the builder used. Those guys aren't interested in the warranty work since they make no money off of it. So they delay as long as possible. We had a column on our back patio that needed to be replaced. From start to finish, it took them 8 months to take care of that as they just abandoned it mid-work and then no showed for months. It took the lawyer threat to finally get that taken care of. My personal favorite is that when I do have the patio screened, that pillar will be replaced again. My current ongoing experience is actually vinyl siding related. Some of the more energy efficient windows they use now can actually cause the siding to melt. The windows wind up reflecting a focused beam of light onto the siding it over time, it melts. So now I'm waiting on one contractor to replace my next door neighbor's windows and another to do my siding. They're ready to go on the siding, but they can't do that until the windows are gone. That company is probably the slowest one in the entire neighborhood. I'm guessing that's probably not much of an issue up there, but it could be something to keep in mind with the vinyl siding.
  16. Good luck to you. My neighbor just ran into both extremes with two jobs he had done on his house. The first was putting in a screen porch. The work was very quick and looks great. On top of all of that, the price was surprisingly low. Part of that was because my neighbor had to paint it himself prior to the screens being put in, but it was totally worth it. The contractor actually stopped by unannounced a couple times just to check in and see how the painting process was going. The wife and I plan on getting ours screened as well, so we already know who we will get for the work. Right after that was done, he had another contractor put some crown molding in his house. The workers showed up 5 hours late and then only took measurements. They then came back the next day late again (sunday of memorial day weekend) and where there until like 10PM. My neighbor missed out on the neighborhood cookout thanks to all of this. They then said they would come back this past saturday to cover the nail marks and paint them. Again, the two workers showed up hours late. And instead of actually doing anything, they argued the whole time, right in front of my neighbors, about how to break up the payment between the two of them. They wound up not doing any work at all. One guy came back by himself yesterday to finish and was again there until after sundown. Long story short, keep doing what you're trying here and do your homework. It's not worth the hassle of finding that second guy from above.
  17. I know it was pretty much more of the same from just about every Will Smith role, but I didn't mind Deadshot in that one either. But yeah, the entire thing was all about Harley. I'm not so sure there's enough there to work with when it comes to getting her in more movies, but hopefully they find more for her.
  18. Their sandwiches are probably better than most of their mainstream competition, but I don't really see why they are so popular. But then again, I'm the type that only eats at fast food places if I'm in a serious time crunch. So in those occasions, I tend to head somewhere else mostly because I don't like the waffle fries. I usually wind up at another southern chain that's big on chicken, Zaxby's.
  19. That's such an odd way of reporting it. Don't they say that about every single player, "if the price is right"?
  20. He was originally a practice squad player with the Bills, right? I'm sure that's not what people are going for when the mention him, but he was in fact cut by the Bills.
  21. I hope Trey Parker was given a bit of freedom to be Trey Parker in Dispicable Me 3. Granted it would have to be a toned down version, but I hope he added in some ad libbing that made its way into the movie.
  22. That's for the guy who sticks around college beyond that four year mark. Petersen would have been that guy if he had stayed for his senior year. As for Eichel, you missed the very important portion of the CBA quote where it says the later of the two scenarios.
  23. I wonder what kind of odor the officer was mentioning at the start of the video.
