    Bill Dozer on BetOnline

    Got a letter from them today advertising a 35% cash bonus along with a host of other Heritage-like promos. Most interesting was the bold endorsement from one Bill Dozer: "BetOnline players have been submitting positive feedback to SBR for the past 5 years. Never has SBR received a complaint...

    I fell in love last night

    ...with the new kid on Glee. I'm seriously thinking of finding someone to tend my animals and going to L.A. for a couple weeks to stalk him. I think I was 22 the last time I looked at someone and felt struck by the thunderbolt like this. I thoroughly intend to regress back into that naive...

    Amnesty at EOG

    For all my fellow troublemakers, the new EOG Manager Viejo Dinosaur has extended another round of amnesty at their poor, forgotten forum. Fiveteamer and Rjt are getting their bans lifted and Bread is coming off post review (Hoffa is still weeping about this while waiting in line at the local...

    I finally made it, Fiver.

    I'm one of the few who now share your distinction of being banned at Peep's. That whiney deadbeat dad Brun finally did enough crying and got me booted. Viva la revolucion!

    So, I finally converted...

    ...to agnosticism. I turned in my resignation at church, just got done packing away all my crucifixes, pictures of Jesus, religious jewelry and bibles in a box and tossed it in the garage. I'm not going to find another church either, I've come to realize that this immortal soul nonsense is...

    Do you owe your parents for the cost of your upbringing?

    I had this discussion today at Peep's, thought maybe it might fly here. Personally, I say no. You didn't ask to be born, thus the costs of your childhood are entirely your parents', it's God's way of making sure they pay for the sex they're having. You can't be held accountable for something...

    What are you reading?

    It just so happens I got the latest addition to my library today, the novel Kramer vs. Kramer by Avery Corman. I recently learned that two of my favorite 70's movies were adapted from his novels, the aforementioned one and also Oh, God! starring George Burns. So since I'm interested in lighter...

    DirecTV spins NFL Red Zone Channel off Sunday Ticket Package

    From what I'm reading it appears that the gem of the Sunday Ticket Package, the Red Zone Channel, will now be available as an a la carte option to DirecTV subscribers who don't feel like plunking down $400 to watch all the games. They haven't set a price yet, but even at $20/month during the...

    Air a grievance here

    We all bottle things up, big things and little things, and while it may be prudent it is still unhealthy. If you have something on your mind or stuck in your craw, post it here. One item per person, and let's try not to be judgemental. Everything and everyone is fair game. :hippie:

    Ever had a neighbor that just wouldn't die?

    There's this bitch that lives a few houses up the road from me and I swear she just won't die. Her property looks like it's abandoned, and yet when I use her unfenced front yard to turn my truck around in she always walks down to my house to tell me that next time I do it she's gonna call the...

    Arena Football starts tonight

    I'm sure Justin7 can't stop creaming his pants, but I just can't get excited. 5Dimes just moved their line on tonight's TV game from Chicago -2 to Chicago -7.5 in one move. Talk about your bubblegum leagues, eh?

    PGA Tour: Shell Houston Open

    Well, it's time for the annual warm-up event for The Masters, the Shell Houston Open. I can't believe that we're already in spring and the first major golf tournament of the year is just a few days away. Anyhow, I like these run-up events because it gives a chance for the little guys to make a...

    Happy Birfday, Dunder!

    You said in the nekkid thread that if it hadn't been your birthday you would've gotten in trouble for drooling over that chick. So I'm taking that to mean that today is your birthday. If it's not your birthday, I hope you'll explain your post in greater detail so I don't look like as much of a...

    Final Four is set - who wins it all?

    Butler -1.5 vs. Michigan State and Duke vs. West Virginia I'd love to see Butler win it all, and I think they have a decent shot against MSU. But the real national championship game in my mind is Duke/WVU. Those two have been atop the polls all year and have earned a ring. If one of...

    Out-of-control hugging leads to ban at Oregon junior high

    Is this really what we've come to as a society? Hugging is now too disruptive for school? I fear breathing may be next. http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2010/03/out-of-control_hugging_leads_t.html
