    Why does the NFL cancel a game because of to much snow in buffalo of alll places? It's fucking football people. And I don't want to hear any nonsense about fans travelling safely. Horseshit. Play the damn game.

    It is pretty stupid. They have shitoads of money - why not just clear the feild, and whoever can make it makes it? Surely things will be somewhat back to normal by Sunday.... if the whole city isn't flooded, that is.

    Well, at least we know they won't be in drought conditions anymore.

    How cold does it have to be outside for a dog to not want to stick its head out the window of a moving car?

    Depends on the dog. My wolf dogs used to drive me nuts in the winter!! It'd be -10 degrees, and we'd be rolling down the interstate at 40-50 MPH ( cleared roads, mind you) and they'd want to be hanging out the damned window!! But the Heeler?? Wanted no part if that!

    Yeah I think the temps are supposed to rise enough this weekend to melt it. I saw something on tv saying it will be the equivalent to 7 or 8 inches of rain? If that's accurate it will be a nightmare.
    Good news is I have to work Sunday and will now be able to watch the Bills Monday night! I'm a silver lining kind of guy!

    If it's in a recycling bin outside a building I definitely wouldn't call it stealing since the people who put them there basically chucked them out (to be recycled for no deposit return). In essence, the people going into recycling bins and taking the bottles and cans are preventing the complete waste of the deposit money. If they didn't take them it is literally like throwing money in the garbage (and then saying that a person who found the money in the garbage stole it).

    we got a recycling credit on our bill...if there was no recyclables in there, we didn't get the credit.

    I found it at Target, you can get it on Amazon too-prob at that evil low wage slave company (walmart) too. You will go through sheets pretty fast, I tried to get a few extra uses out of them by using a fine tooth comb to comb out the hairs when it would get full.

    Thanks, going to search amazon now. Best question/answer ever, of course now it will have to be moved to the correct thread.

    Do we have a good and rational question thread?

    I came across something similar made by Pledge or Swiffer, I think - bought it a few years ago and found it while cleaning out a cabinet.

    IT WAS AMAZING.

    I think similar to what you use. We need this, especially with Shedder #1.

    I have a turkey.
    Sweet potato.

    crescent rolls
    and String Beans, because Goddamnit I'm making SOMETHING for me to eat.

    haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalp.

    you know, you laugh. but the knob/dial thing actually no longer has numbers on it. So all these instructions like "preheat to 350, cook for 2 hours then crank heat to 425 and cook for one hour" have me thinking I'm gonna have to kinda guess about where the numbers are supposed to be.
