  1. That was the highlight of last summer but the city of Heath took em all down now Im sad.

    I would have loved to have been there for that one, even better yet, the looks on their faces when they saw it!

    Last I knew, they're still up, and taking statistics, just not able to use them to issue "tickets".

  2. After reading all this, and searching on the internet, and compiling a spreadsheet...

    There are 15 confirmed Bike Nights in the Columbus area.

    Some are new, and might have hardly anyone there, or might fail.

    Also other Bike Nights in Dayton, Johnstown and Pataskala.

    There are 4 Bike Nights that are maybes. Not enough information.

    There are 6 to 8 bike nights that might happen, if they get organized.

    There is some interest in FlashMob Bike Nights, just suddenly going where ever.

    This doesn't even include the popular gathering at Taco Bell on High Street.

    So, plug in the formula to that spreadsheet, and let us know where to be! :lol:

    Ya know, polarass would be reasonably close for me, but I prefer not to ride up that way. I vote for east side, or further east, pataskala, newark, etc... I'm most liekly not going to make it for a couple months, as my wife has something planned for thurs night for 10 more weeks, and I have to be home to take care of the tax deductions.... After that, I'm gonna lay down the law (aka...beg) to get to go to some bike nights.

  3. I've been searching the net for the last couple of days finding quite a few that will "work" but not what I'm really looing for.

    I'm getting ready for the Zombie attack or 2012 whichever comes first :rolleyes:

    I used ot kow a few sites that would have stuff like that, I don't remember them now. I'll see if I have my bookmarks from a few years saved somewhere.

    Have you tried Ebay? I know that sounds funny, but big stuff like that isn't anything like the regular stuff on there.

  4. Nerk and Roundtown have bars just for fat girls!? :eek:

    Yeah, ALL of the bars in Newark.... :lol:

    There are a few places in Newark that would be good, but they're pretty much all in Heath! Maybe Rooster's in Newark though? Most of the bars in that town seem to draw the hardcore harley group. You know, the ones that spend more time polishing their chrome and drinking than riding.

  5. On Facebook, where they switched to Five Guys instead.

    They're sneaky like that...

    Yeah, I didn't follow it that far, I just saw the initial posting. The only burger I had a chance at getting was McD's, BK, or home grilled tonight. I wasn't about to leave the Johnstown area after the day I had.

  6. I know someone that had a bad experience, but if I recall, he said he doesn't regret it at all. I can ask him for the exact details of what happened if people really want to know, but I bet it's something that's been posted on some of the anti-Lasik websites. I'm thinking he said something came detatched? He said that what happened in his case is like a 1 in 10,000 case, and he was just the lucky number to have bad results.

    When talking to a lawyer friend of his that guarateed he could get a HUGE settlement, he declined, said it wasn't the dr's fault, it was something to do with his eye, or something like that.

  7. I use GPS Speed, or something like that (can't remember the name for sure, and too lazy to grab the phone, I'd rather type an explanation of why the name might be inaccurate :dunno:) once in a while to check the accuracy of speedometers.

  8. From the census 2010 website:

    "No one can get access to census data. It is rock solid secure."

    -- James T. Christy, Los Angeles Regional Office Director, U.S. Census Bureau

    How can they back that up? Is their information networked to various locations, through non-dedicated lines? If not, chances are good that they CAN be hacked.

  9. I still wonder about the need for a census these days. It should be something like only need to reply if you don't have a state ID issued, or enrolled in a public school system. They can't get that much together? How about birth and death records? :dunno:

    With the amount of info they have on all of us, what is the need for the census, other than it's in the constitution? Maybe they should modify it to allow electronic counting through records databases?

    How much of the information is required, and what why even ask what's not required?

    See, even I can count! I'm sure they have programmers that can extract more accurate counts from gov't databases than what they'll get from paper forms!

  10. The reason why they don't show up in muni court is because you never went there. Mayor's Court is it's own separate entity consisting of a "judge" that probably doesn't have a shred of legal experience, 99/100 is not a member of the Bar, and since he/she is in charge of the town and its budget has a inherent conflict of interest to find you guilty so they can collect on you. Every mayor's court I've been to (2) gives you the ability to remand your own case to the municipal court where you will get a MUCH fairer trial than in mayors court.

    I'm still wondering about where the files might show up then. Are they stuck in the Mayr's Court's records, or are they filed somewhere else, where they can be had by others seeking info about a person? I'm not worried about anything turning up on me, I've already told the info that will come up in my experience with mayor's court's, I'm just curious.

  11. If you have a good backup, the server doesn't die and stupid LUsers don't "accidentally", er, stupidly delete their files... 20+ years experience talkin' here.

    Avamar (EMC) d2d + deduplication FTMFW.

    At home I'm using a windows home server box. Automatic backups, easy file sharing, remote access... I haven't had much need for backups, recently, or in the past. I guess I'm just licky on that one.

    I did have a drive in a Striped RAID fail not long ago, but I kept all the data on another drive, and only program files and OS and such on the RAID. I didn't bother with restoring that backup, just fresh install of windows, point my docs, etc.. to the right folders on the second drive, all was sell again.
