Of course creationism wasn't taught when you were in school... back then, it wasn't even history yet!

Good one, old man.   :wink:

  I did too; also the colors made parts of it look sort of 3D-ish. :-D

Me too except for the white letters I had to highlight to find the stanza.

Emphatically false.  We spent the winter months in Ashtabula Ohio within 300 yards of Lake Erie.  I never remember being so cold.  Then later that year I had major surgery on my right knee.  I spent a long time in a full leg cast.

IBTNPTPITT didn't compete in a cornhole tournament yesterday.

Hmm, weird... it works for me... Anyone else having this problem?

Ummmm.  I think we've been telling you since the new board that it doesn't work.

You could check at this place:

I haven't visited in quite a while but look in their forums or join them.  I'm pretty confident you'll find the droids you are looking for.

IBTNP uses their right thumb to press the space bar.

False here also.  I use the left because I don't have a right index finger.  So the right thumb takes the place of the index on the home keys.

When I took typing in school, ages ago with manual machines, the teacher at first said that I couldn't be in the class for this reason.  I asked her what the left thumb was used for and she said nothing.  So I told her that I would be using the left for the space bar and the right thumb for the index.  She didn't seem convinced but let me try it.  By the end of the year I was the fastest in her class with 70 wpm with no mistakes.

I was going to mention Leverage a while ago but forgot, apparently.

I think it's only three shows in and they are on STC.

I got a hole in one on the 8th hole of Wii golf.  Just so you know.




Good jorb.

I've never gotten a hole in one but I have holed it in from about 120 and 140 yards on an actual course.

A bit awkward at first but with a good filtered shop vac there is very little dust floating around.  I usually only sand the final coat.  The in between coats I just take a taping or joint knife and cut down the ridges/bumps/etc..

I had to buy one, or the company did, several years ago for a project where we had to leave a wall out to get an MRI into the room.  Then finish the opening in the wall after it was brought in.  Worked pretty well.

Thanks.  He is only 43 and was diagnosed with stomach cancer earlier this year.  He ended up doing three chemo treatments, which according to the oncologist, that were double the dose normally used.  They thought they had most of it after the first treatment.  But after the scan following the second one they weren't sure.  They braced them for the possibility of radiation treatments every day for a couple of months if the results from this last treatment and scan weren't good. 

When the doctor came in to the exam room this morning he asked how the BIL was feeling.  He told him he felt fine and the doc said well you should because there were no traces of it left in his system.  The last treatment was the only one that really made him feel really bad.  And according to them the doc wasn't truly happy with the last scan after the second treatment so he essentially doubled the double dose.  After the poison from all of that gets out of his system he should be back to his old self.

Oh and do a GIS for elf boots.

Indeed my friend.  Having the ability to do those type of things is rewarding.  The only thing I hate about it is that everyone knows that I can do it but want me to do it for them for free.   :-D

I quit most woodworking years ago.  I would make the wife a one of a kind piece, sisters, mothers, family in general would all want one.  The better half would give hers to one of them and expect me to make another.  Then someone else would want one.  It was a vicious cycle.

As far as the building end of it, if I need help I have a few that will help me and they are the ones that I don't mind helping.

But if you can do it yourself you're always money ahead. 

Good job 12.

False.  I'm kinda sinffin' myself right now.

He had his last chemo treatment last month and has been waiting for the pet scan and results.

IBTTNP on here could likely care less.

False.  I can't even remember the last time I slept that long.

IBTTNPTPITH didn't just get the news that their brother in law is now cancer free like I did.

Woot!!!!  IT WILL BE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AFTER ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
