  1. LySergic acid Diethylamide is a wonder to behold in action...
  2. J-Crotch tried a comeback a month or two ago, selling some Gixxer with wrong plastics and pegs - it didn't end well for him.
  3. First letter in a sentence is capitalized.
  4. You a classic Keynesian, Follower of Friedman, or more of a New Classical kinda guy? (former gf was/is Ph.D. in econ, so had to listen to lots of blathering in order to play with the d cups...)
  5. blue waffles. google image search it; you can thank me later...
  6. I know - how about spending less than we take in? Works for me at my house.
  7. ** nsfw language warning - do not read if easily offended ** "Corner Canyon Cougars" or "Corner Canyon Desperate Old Cunts" ? Doesn't seem so bad now, does it?
  8. Wasn't me! Congratulations! As has been said, life's only going to get better in 5 or so months.
  9. If shtf, I'm just gonna go back to The Ritz in Kapalua and enjoy the sunshine.
  10. At least the possibility of them getting hurt is less.
  11. Doubt it, but I could take mine off my xd9 and see. Standby. ***edit: that didn't take long. No. Magwell/base of grip larger on the .45. Looks like the rest would work, but big ol' gap at the bottom. You could always buy an xd45... /third free bump today. JJ owes me.
  12. I've got duct tape, you have cash? /another free bump
  13. They can probably do that all by themselves... #paranoid
  14. I'm guessing no; but I'd be happy to sell them to you and you could try them... Actually, we could meet somewhere and you could see if they fit. Free bump for JJ.
  15. By anyone's measure, a great coach and a great man, who made one really bad decision. It's too bad that 45 years of turning out quality young men and an always solid football program will, for a long time, be overshadowed by his egregious inaction. One mistake. One big, giant mistake. As KK said, football kept him going. Made it what, about 3 months without football?
  16. Played with one of these ALL the time, the cab tilted so you could steer it, and it was the same size as the giant Tonka Trucks, so it fit right in:

    Who invests?

    If you have a 401K, contribute AT LEAST as much as what your company will match - it's free money. If you can max it out, do it. If you get a raise, invest all of it - you were doing ok on what you earned before, right? As to where you should put your inve$tment moniez, it depends upon your age, the amount you have saved now, your current income and spending levels, your debt level, what expenditures you have coming up (e.g. college for kids), and a host of other things. My advice: See a financial planner, try to find one that works on a percentage of the assets under advisement, typically 1% - 1.5%. Avoid insurance salesmen. They're looking to sell you something from which they'll earn a commission.

    Derbycon is on!!

    I heard the AFJ Admin was giving a talk about DB Security...
  19. Running multiple VMWare clusters (clustered hosts) hosting OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) servers running Oracle 11g instances and Server 2008r2 hosting MS SQL 2008 (clustered). I may or may not have a rogue instance or two of MySQL running somewhere... Old school DBAs (no offense) will not want their Oracle DB running on a VM - they will swear up and down it won't work. The ones at the office have come around, especially when I can spin up a brand-spanking new host in 15 minutes for them. Oracle doesn't support it unless you run Oracle's hypervisor on OEL. As long as your VMWare environment is properly configured (guest memory, in particular), you can run SQL (or anything) just fine in the virtual world. Where most people have issues is when they give too much memory to their guests, and they get into what's called "memory ballooning". Assuming limited/no budget, I'd get the "community" version of VMTurbo - it will do most if not all of the monitoring you need for your vCenter install. Lots of best practices docs at VMWare.com
  20. I don't need to imagine the nightmare he's created for America.
