  1. 2.5GB - nearly all of which is remoting in through a TS session (TS Mobiles FTW) via my BES server, to take care of server stuff without having to VPN in from the lapper. Easy to do at Thursday night dart league...

    No pr0n on the Crackberry - going through Corporate proxy, plus the screen's too small (justa guess, of course....:D)

    Not nearly the consumer of bandwidth as the OP. However, router logs at home show a boatload of traffic both down and up. Insight doesn't seem to care. We're talking over 130GB/month.... Little Bubba 2 server handles it no problemo...

  2. I'm tellin' you! I hate to stereotype.... BUUUUUT, stereotypes wouldn't be around if there wasn't some truth to them. It's unbelievably bad near where I live compared to other areas, although I can't speak for columbus or south of akron.

    Either way, by me I can 90% of the time tell you almost the exact driver profile when that happens:

    Mother of 2+ Kids

    -Driving an SUV costing at least $60,000 no older than 2 years old

    -Married to her rich Jewish husband that makes $350,000+

    -With a cell phone attached to her face

    -Either on her way to the country club, or gym

    Yes. I agree, but since my earliest memories of long drives in the car with my parents to my grandmothers everyone's gotten SOOOOO much worse. That's the problem I have. Maybe I'm imagining it, but, it sure as hell feels like it's gotten worse in the past 10 years.

    Was that part really necessary, Adolf? Wow.

    You forgot to include <insert other bigoted stereotype here>.

  3. - Who uses Cogswell Cogs?

    - Anyone ever drink grog?

    - Who here has rolled a log (or pinched a nice one...)?

    - How about that egg nog?

    - Anybody ever play with Pogs? (Dammit, ThatDude beat me to it, the jerk...:D)

    - Who calls their coat a tog?

    - Why do people in the UK call non-white people "wogs"?

    - I want a Xog GPS? Anyone have one?

    - Who believes in the ZOG (Zionist Occupation Government) anti-Semitic conspiracy theory?

    Discuss amongst all of us.

  4. Where was there a skateboard park on Coonpath?

    Heading south on 33, turn west on Coonpath. Don't recall how far it was - maybe a 1/2 mile or so, and was on the left (south) side of the road. Pretty basic park - nothing like Apple in Columbus (9/79 - 5/81, r.i.p.:().

    at close enough range, I believe it.

    the problem the Myth Busters had was that they couldn't get a contiguous flow of urine from the dummy to the rail. Air breaks up the liquid while it's in-flight.

    close range eliminates (or is it creates?) that problem.

    It happened, I promise:D. I was standing, I don't know, maybe 2 feet from the fence. I had A LOT of Coca-Cola that wanted out. No problems with "the stream" breaking up. It was one of those "2 or 3 minute pees", broken up 10 seconds into it (when my aim hit it's mark) by a stream (pun intended) of electricity coming back at me and entering a portion of my anatomy that shouldn't have had electricty entering it.

  5. I dunno why people cant realize that just because you are a pretty good coordinator doesn't mean you will make a good coach. Not to mention why everyone worships the Belichick coaching tree when I don't think many if any at all have had great success anywhere

    Agreed. With one notable exception (Saban).

    Quoted from Wikipedia:

    Six of Belichick's assistant coaches have become NFL head coaches:

    Five more assistant coaches have become NCAA Division I head coaches:

  6. I would be interested in Ohio law on a non triggered red light I have read on other forums, of other states laws allowing motorcycles to go through a red light or turn left on red ( with caution and clear distance ) if a signal does not respond after a certain time or # of cycles.

    C-Bus example: Eastbound Shrock Rd. to Northbound Cleveland Ave. I can sit there in the 6,000 pound truck for 2 or 3 cycles waiting for the left-turn signal. Since it's right near I-270 and on the Columbus-Westerville border, there are 3 jurisdictions I need to look for before saying "fug it" and just going. PITA.:mad:

  7. I will attempt to get these questions answered.

    A guy I coached Jr.'s flag football team with is OSHP, I'm sure he'd give his/the State's views.

    The Genoa Township Police station is just up the road from me - never much going on around here (thankfully) so I'm guessing that someone there would give the "local LEO" view.

    As far as finding an atorney that represents motorcyclists, there has to be someone on this board that's an attorney. If they don't handle traffic cases directly, they've gotta know someone. I know a couple of "mouthpieces", I will query them to find someone to answer our questions.

    Give me a couple of days - should have something toward the end of the coming week.

  8. ARGH! "insert link" cut/paste from Amazon doesn't work quite right. Just go to Amazon, take 10 seconds to look for "free mp3 downloads"....

    Amazon has free MP3s every day, check back often.

  9. According to their website, all exchanges must be made within 14 days.

    I would call the store from which you bought, speak to someone in charge, and ask them to reserve the next LG 32 that comes in for you, and have them call you when it comes in.

    When it's in, take yours in, examine the replacement; if it meets your approval, swap 'em, take the new one home and call it done.

    As to buffing out the current one, some 600+ grit on a buffing wheel might work. BUT, once you've gone the "fix it myself" route, you won't be able to return it. Maybe try on the back of it first?

  10. True story: 30-ish years ago, at age 12 or 13, pop took me to the only skateboard park in central ohio, down on Coonpath Road just north of Lancaster.

    Mid-summer, no trees, 5 or 6 Cokes later, nature calls.

    I wander out to the edge of the property, there's a fence.

    It's humming, but that doesn't set off any alarms in my brain.

    Summers on the grandparent's farm taught me nothing about electric fences - they didn't have any - Mennonite.

    Start going, of course gotta try to hit the fence, right?

    A <strong> tingling/throbbing sensation is felt in my nether regions.

    Not entirely unpleasant, but not super fun, either.

    Figured out pretty quickly what was going on and adjusted my aim.

    Haven't done it since. I might be dumb, but I'm not stupid.

  11. I've only been able to participate in one mission due to a lot of them happening either during the week or too far away, but I appreciate the mission (no pun intended whatsoever), the idea itself.

    I only wish there were more that I could get to. Actually, I wish there were none; i.e. no fallen soldiers to which to pay tribute, but that's not going to happen...:(

    Please keep the updates coming.

    And how am I supposed to carry a 3' x 5' flag on my bike? How do others carry their flags? Ideas?:confused:

  12. duh. I knew that. Just pointing out the "coder's" not so great, and not exactly new, script.

    5 minutes with some shell scripting, sed and awk, and a maps.google call produces the same result.

    When I went through my Squid proxy - which is supposed to hide the internal addr and only show the publicly addressable one, his script grabbed my private addr. Redirected myself past the proxy and straight out one of the ns servers and the script stopped at the ns server and didn't continue on in. Must look at the F5 and Cisco configs, but maybe week after next. I'm on vay-kay as of 51 minutes ago, so only if a server catches fire am I doing anything till the 30th.

    Ha! Something will blow up and need attention...
