  1. I was raised in Dallas. *crickets chirping*
  2. So we have a second GOP candidate whose qualification is that the voters would like to have a beer with him. He's that kind of guy. I'd hope that we would want a president who is better than ol' Fred next door.

    back to Archie...please
  4. Note that it is not necessary to detonate nuclear weapons to generate an EMP. That's the whole frikkin point of all the reasearch the US and USSR did, to build machinery that would generate EMPs without dispersing ionizing radiation.
  5. I remember that just after the neutron bomb frenzy in the 80s came a slew of reports and buzz about the commies' EMP machines. Now it's NK. Neither EMP nor scare tactics are new. The U.S. launched EMP research in the 40's after noticing strange effects from the first A-bomb blasts. Most military equipment we use now is "hardened" against EMP. Back when I was interested in nuclear weapons it seemed to me that EMP was pretty well understood and allowed for, at least by the U.S.

    Sounders!

    In golf it's supposed to go forward only but sometimes it goes off to the side. In bullfighting the balls go around in circles then they stop moving all at once.

    Something's wrong. She's in Sensitivioso. It's an impostor.
  8. Jesse Jackson is an ordained minister, right? Don't they have rules against that sort of talk?
  9. Reminds me that the last time I got a "massage" off craigslist I ended up being asked to join a medical study.
  10. I got it from amazon for $76 off retail then I saw it on newegg for $4 less. Now I hate that camera.
  11. I saw the subject header and thought Archenemy had posted her rental a second time.
  12. How do you know it's inaccurate? The reporter rode with the jarheads and wrote what he saw. What was incorrect about his writing?
  13. He's from Spokane. Don't give it to him.

    it's snowing!

    One word: flocculant.
  15. 12 year old in pastry-eating contest:
  16. one won't
  17. Moderator! Cleanup on aisle two!
  18. I am off work today. I need to actually go to Index and see the controversy firsthand. Is anyone else motivated enough to actually go there right now and study this problem up close?
  19. Congratulations! Cross Fit gets it done, doesn't it! I heard Greg Glassman at CF Vancouver a couple years ago. Wish I could work out with Patty more often, cool crew there. Did you meet Nancy and Dave from CF Seattle?
  20. And did you check the road to Exfoliation Dome? It was blocked by multiple slides as of 6/28. Has anyone attacked that debris? (If anyone does, I'll help)
  21. Fairly close to the Mtn. Loop Highway there is (or was, maybe) a low spot that had held avy debris. As of 6/28 it was sort of a trap that got at least one 2WD vehicle. How is it now? You don't even mention it so I guess it's much better.
  22. Rowing and swimming are good. When I was young I raced road bicycles in another part of the country but I don't like to ride here. In CF we run 440s and 880s. If you push the lactate threshold running those distances regularly, your aerobic limit goes through the roof.
  23. Nice idea Sobo but the '06 takes up to a 220gr and it aint a HP. You'd need a 180gr HP and something a little better than a Bushnell POS Last time some guys started hanging out at Exit 38 with a couple of M4s, 10x binos, digital cameras and a cell phone this shit stopped for awhile. Funny how quickly the word gets out. You tinhorns, the .308 is the supreme long-range round. If my hands didn't shake so much I could knock the cock off a housefly at 600 yards.
  24. A long time ago I saw nwhikers.com video shot from a kite skier's helmet cam. It's a wild activity! It's almost as fast a way down as falling, with few of the negatives.
