  1. They said he was there to dispute a traffic violation. No audio or not that was shady as hell. Even if he was under arrest or drunk/disorderly they could've gone about that a hell of alot better than what they did.
  2. I agree with Hal. It is just as much the parents fault as the children's to think they actually deserve to have such luxuries without actually paying for them. My parents made me buy my first car and I'll do the same to my kids.... if I ever have kids.
  3. Ha, only reason i say that is because my sister in law just graduated from Wright state with a degree in early childhood education (K-3rd grade I believe) she couldn't find a job anywhere to be a teacher, her only option was this place and she was constantly bitching about it. Luckily my brother makes enough and they dont have any kids so its not like they were in THAT tight of a bind. Hell she's been looking for work for the past year and all she can find is substitute teaching gigs. She's a long term sub now and works her ass off but at least it pays more than the daycare did.
  4. See, I actually feel bad for parents put in this position in which they HAVE to use childcare. It seems like a total con, the childcare companies open these places and charge outrageous amount's because they know parents have to pay it. Then they pay the teachers running these places like 9$/hour. Cant blame anyone for trying to make money but it sucks when there are no other likely options for parents than to pay 250$/week just so they can work.
  5. I agree this can absolutly be done. It will take some work to find such cheap living but i know of a few select places in dublin where a 2bedrom 2bath can be had for under 600/month. But food for more than 1 person at 100$/month? Not sure about that. I grocery shop regularly and always brown bag it and I still pay an average of 50/week. However I dont cut coupons or shop at Aldi so Im sure there is room for improvement.
  6. So... how much could you get for something like that? And how much did he THINK he should get?
  7. Man I was going to post this last night but forgot all about it. I've only read the stories on espn.com and si.com so I havent actually seen the footage. I thought I heard about a goalie incident but the only story I could find was the one involving zednik.
  8. So I have to ask, did you honestly think a stock rebuilt saturn engine (is that an ecotec btw?) could handle 22psi for any amount of time or did you already know you were going to build it and just said "fuck it, go out with a bang"? Props to you for doing something different though.
  9. Ha sorry man. Its cool jason, I'll call you tomorow.
  10. Winter sucks period. Its about this time every year I contemplate getting the fuck out. so... when is winter SUPPOSE to be over? Please tell me its soon.
  11. Wow, at first I thought the prosecutor was a bit over zealous in her pursuit but damn, after reading the whole article and all the evidence, He's DAMNED lucky to get off. No pun intended. But its not like the stripper cares, she got 400k out of it.
  12. I usually get to bed around 12 or 1 on a weeknight, alarm goes off at 7 but i dont get up till 730-8, at work by 9. I take a 20-30 min nap on my lunch hour in the middle of the day afterwards i feel great. For some reason I cant just wake up at 7 or 8 and go the whole day like a normal person. The weekends are an excuse to sleep in.
  13. Last night was decent. There was more people than usual so we played 5 on 5 (normal roller hockey is played 4 on 4 so it open's up the court some more and is faster though not as fast as ice). No real rules per say, just show up with your stuff on and have a good time. Unless you REALLY want to, you wont needs your chest/shoulder pads or your pants. Its usually pretty fast and almost all Offense. You and your team take it down, score or the goalie stops it then the other side does the same. If you normally play D its great practice b/c your constantly facing guys who are REALLY good puck handlers and skaters. Ive been deeked many times but its made me a better player for it. No refs, no penalties, no icing, no score kept. You can get a bit physical on the boards but theres really no checking. Its drop in's so its very laid back. If you just sit back and watch them play you can see whats acceptable and whats not. I use this as my cardio workout on fridays. Despite having 7 guys on the bench and 5 playing I still got a couple decent shifts in and got my ass kicked.
  14. First post or not, your screen name made me giggle.
  15. Yeah and play 3 post on the other end, that does suck. Ive played drop in's before with like 11 guys, no goalies.... BORING! If your interested (or anyone else for that matter) in trying out roller its hella fun and goalies always show up b/c they play for free. Friday nights 7-9, 5$ per hour. They usually run at least 10 per bench so line changes arent that bad, you usually dont wait longer than 3-4 min unless theres a jackass who likes to take 20min shifts. Alot of OSU's club team shows up but they're cool about spliting up benches so they're not playing offense the whole time.
  16. Ive heard it is cheap but you have to sign up. If you sign up over the phone you have to give a cc number, and if for whatever reason you dont show up they still charge you for the time you SAID you were going to be there. This is second hand info so take it for what it is.
  17. Ive heard drop-in's at any of the chiller leagues are rediculous, like 30+ people showing up, people getting REALLY competitive and shit, alot of top tier C league players showing up as well. Someone like me would just skate up and down the ice and not do anything so theres really no point. That and breaking into ice hockey can get expensive so Ive been playing roller for the past year and a half, eventually I'll make it over to one of their lower leagues to try it out though. They're not that bad. Its always a close game with them. Ive finally come to the realization that I didnt join the league to make enemies, I joined to have fun and meet new people. Yeah every now and then things get heated but in the end of the game when you all shake it doesnt really matter. Last night there weren't any punches thrown but the shadiest thing they did was no shake at the end. Its like, does it really bother you THAT much?
  18. If any of you play any sort of recreational sport you know what Im talking about. Theres always that asshole on the other team who thinks he's playing for a world championship every game, takes shit WAY too seriously, and argues with the ref on EVERY call that is made against them, even if it is well deserved. I my roller hockey team played a team like this last night. They are notorious for being cheap shot bastards who bitch and complain about EVERYTHING. I was surprised there were as few penalties called during the game that there were but there were probably some "incidents" that the ref's may not have seen so dont think it was exactly a clean game by any means. Mind you I play in the lowest league, which is by all accounts and definitions a 'beer league'. Just there to have fun, yes we are a bit competitive but who isnt. If we lose its not like it will ruin my day. But these fuckers take it way over the top. Arguing with the ref about EVERYTHING, even a warning. The one time they did make a blatant penalty (a trip along the boards no less) the guy actually acted surprised he was getting called for it, then proceeded to tell the ref he didnt know what he was doing along with some classy. Then to top it all off, their captain (or at least the guy wearing a C on his chest, which is the stupidest thing Ive ever seen in organized recreational sports) decides he is too good to shake hands after the game. Maybe the salt in his VAGGGG was still burning from the loss we just handed them? Maybe he had better places to be... either way it was BUSH LEAGUE! I guess I should expect no less class from a team who actually named themselves "The Gordon Bombay Project". Fuck them, if you cant take a loss without saving yourself an once of dignity and class then you shouldn't play. I seriously hope their loss last night ruined their day. /RANT
