  1. My 15 year old son was kicking a soccer ball in the neighbors back yard about a month ago with my other kids. I'm not sure why they were next door because they have their own yard but they were. I have told all of them several times to play in their own yard. Well Brendon kicked the soccer ball way to hard and broke the neighbors fence. Guess who paid to fix it??? I made him pay to fix the neighbors fence. It was an accident but I told them not to go over there and they did it anyways. At that point its on him.
  2. +1 and I even hate Penn State with the passion.
  3. Digimarc is actually a Photoshop plugin. I use this and it works very well. I usually just do a batch resize and watermark.
  4. Shit I have to work. Im gonna miss out.
  5. I agree. Hell maybe we needed all of this to happen in order to force a change and put things back in the peoples hands. Let's just hope that this is not just the beginning and its gonna need to get much worse.
  6. On a totally different side I think that we have some hard times ahead of us but I also that the people are starting to speak and our voices are being heard. Everyone is tired of big government and big spending to make the govt even larger and more powerful. I think cutting govt positions and beauracrats back down to an intended size would probably more than fill our budget deficit.
  7. You make a valid argument regarding ringotard but rules are rules.
  8. I am sure there is some of that but did you see the one 60 gunner who had taken the shrapnel and gunshot wounds and never left his machine gun? They said he kept at it for 8 hours even with his wounds.
  9. I have to agree with you on that. I hate seeing a clip that your getting in to and all of the sudden it switches to something else.
  10. I dont think there would be an issue of paying 25% if thier pay was on par with the private sector. And if it were on par with the private sector then I would push for an increase in what the do pay for benefits. They get the cheaper benifits because of their low pay. I understand that there is always going to be a need for minumum wage but what would you do if you all of the sudden had no choice but to make 7.50 an hour? Not speaking on my wifes behalf but yes there are people who have painted themselves in to a corner and may only have training in one particular area. Does that make it right to take that away from them and tell someone at say 50 years old, "sorry but you have to learn a new trade even though you have been doing this same job for the last 25 years? My wife and I both have an out and plans in case of disaster. Should she be forced to throw away the last 7 years that she has spent at the State trying to advance her position and make a better life for her family becaus ethe government mismanaged funds? I agree we are in a pickle and sacrifices need to be made but they need to be made evenly across the board. I feel that the majority of state worker have already done their part to help out. Is there room for more in there? Possibly but not the way Kasich had it layed out. I am for the things such as performance raises versus length of employment raises or performace raises for teacher based off of students performance but not in regards to state testing. If the govt is broken and continues to mismanage things then how can we expect them to take over in terms of decision making over the unions? If my wife had to pay more in to her benefits right now then that would be another cut in her pay so to speak. My wife has taken her share of cuts at work and had to forgo promotions and raises, she has taken her unpaid days from work, she has worked the jobs of 5 people because they could not hire people to do those jobs because of hiring freezes. She is doing way more for less.
  11. I was talking to you but now I already hate you again.
  12. Its not any different but how many times can you expect the same group of people to take cuts? Is it going to be enough when everyone has to pay 100% for their benifits and makes minumum wage because our local goverment fucked this all up? Don't get me wrong. I am all for sacrifice and I think it should be spread evenly across the board. You can not say ok guys we are not giving raises this year so we can help balance the budget. Com back 2 months later and say ok guys, you have to take 10 unpaid days off a year to help balance the budget. And again and again. It has been one thing after the other for more than the last year. I have always worked in the private sector and I have taken some hits on my end but nothing like what my wife has had to go through. NOW I could understand if she made 100k a year and had the same benefits and what not. The issue is that the mojority of the people who are affected by all of this don't make that kind of money and are living paycheck to paycheck. When you take and take and take then the well dries up and what do you have then? I dont think that State workers are exempt at all. I think that they have taken enough from them already and now its time to look at other places to cut costs. Our government mismanaged the state budget NOT the state employees. How fair is it for the state employees to carry this entire burdeon? 3 raises in 7 years is good? Not by my standards. I have had some years without raises but not like that. Again, this is another thing that is part of their overall compensation package that they have already given up as well.
  13. Kids are kids and accidents happen. He made a stupid decision and I am sure he did not think it would break and or intend to break it. On the flip side, I would beat the shit out of him with that BB gun.
  14. Hey bud. Nice to see ya back. Where have you been?????
  15. All I can say is that I am SOOOOO glad that it failed. I agree with parts of it but as a whole it sucked ass. My wife has done nothing but take cuts from work for the last year in an attempt to help balance the state budget. My whole issue is how many cuts do they expect the same group of people to take before it is enough? It has personally affected my household. The lower priced benefits make up for the low pay and is supposed to be part of her overall compensation package. She is also one of the top performers in her department and has only recieved 3 raises in 7 years. I think if this bill were broken up then some of the issues have a really good chance of passing.
  16. Did anyone catch Vietnam HD on the History channel last night? Its a 3 part show Tues, Weds and Thurs from 9-11 each night this week. I thought it was apretty awesome show so far. If your a war or military buff its very interesting but sad.
  17. I agree 100%. I see so many kids being brought up in bad situations and being neglected and what not. Amen Brutha
  18. I have to wait for this weekend. I dont have any time this week to go get it. Picking mine up Saturday morning. SHIT I need to renew my Xbox live acct also.
  19. SO far I have taken 50 calls today on various IT related issues. Mondays always suck here. Fortunately this has been a lite Monday.
