Shrew I like the one eyed parrot impersonation in the 2nd photo.

That Ricin is some scary ass shit. Do they run the mail through special lights or something crazy that they can detect such small amounts (and that it didn't kill someone on the way to DC.)

There is a traffic jam on the south side of the Big Dig on 93 at all hours of the day. When I was living in Dorchester I came home once at 4 AM Saturday morning and it took me 35 minutes to get from the tunnel entrance to my exit...two miles away. And a traffic jam at the 93/95 shit show right outsi...

Again I posted my plans, and those are not from my brain but through discussions off board with people , in the thread on the old board. As for "giving blame" I have never done any such thing. I apologized for the shittiness of the upgrade, and had communications with VB about a rollback o...

Rush2112

The thing you keep forgetting is that the databases were backed up. Not by me correct. but still backed up. As I stated before if you had such issues with me doing anything you have a multitude of ways of contacting off board. "Hey Rush, how's the upgrade looking, etc." but nothing from yo...

Rush2112

Well you a failing to remember the stickied post in the Swamp dealing with the upgrade as well as countless emails between myself and those that are responsible for funding this joint. I repeatedly stated exactly what was going on and when things were going to happen. I didn't do anything to "f...

Rush2112

I consulted everyone along the way. The consensus was to have the company do the upgrade and to the latest release, the tech did backup the databases. I did nothing that no one didn't know about. There is no reason to jump down my throat. I did nothing than suggest that some people feel uncomfortabl...

Rush2112

No one is giving anyone a free pass, and I am not making you the bad guy. Things were typed/sent that shouldn't have been that's what happened. As for the upgrade that's nothing that I did that's just shitty software. You talk about time invested. I spent weeks consolidating information and tracking...

He said goodbye in both places. Scottie, perhaps this is a good time to hand over what ever copies of keys that you still have. I think I speak for everyone in appreciating in bringing this board back up, but I think it would make people more comfortable if you were just one of us rather than having...

A good friend of mine (and former roommate) lives down the street from the boy that was killed. Evidently the boys house is swarming with media and she had to park 3 blocks away. As she's trying to get home she was approached by a large group of "media" that asked how the blast was associa...

Well without Sanders they'd be just as thin. I think that Sanders probably would have been tendered at a higher level, but the Steelers were looking to save some coin. Pats made an offer to Sanders. Steelers will get a 3rd round pick if they don't match. The Stillers matched. Did they do that out of...

This is often ahead of traditional news services. Though one needs to sift through to separate wheat from chaff.

My wife ran the Boston Marathon 2 years ago. The bombs went off right when she would have been crossing the finish line.

Rush2112

Yes that's right in front of Boston Public Library. Initial reports put 30 injured and the explosions coming from two different locations.

Yeah the massive swings are pretty typical here. I am glad that the 70+ days are on the weekends and the snow/rain/hardcore wind has decided to occupy the first part of the work week. Supposedly, an effect of global warming is more volatile weather, with swings both directions. But also, it's not th...

I feel the same way about Tommy Allen (IIRC) the DT the Pats signed from OAK. If the player is somewhat productive in OAK and signed for low $$ then why not give him a chance? It's gotta suck playing on a team as dysfunctional as the Raidahs.

Rush2112

That was here earlier in the week, then we were supposed to get ~ a foot of snow (ended up being nothing more than a dusting) the worst part was going from 70+ to the teens in less than 24 hours.

If I was starting over with the same interests I'd like to have a CS degree or if really changing things up gone to culinary school or perhaps a degree in Fermentation Science. ..also I shouldn't have "wasted" time teaching. I enjoyed it but at least were I was it was stressful as fuck and...

Why not an online MBA?

This. There's no money in engineering and I've been steered toward the business aspects of what we do. It's been strongly suggested that I get an MBA but I'm not sure if I'll be living down here at the end of 2013.

I've been reading a few of the Oxford Short Introductions To Series. Very informative and well done. There is one on British Politics (20th Cen) and should be at your local library.

If you worked in heavy industry or mining in the UK, yes.
