Needledrop. Now!

Well, Nashua (and Salem) are generally considered northern MA by the rest of NH anyway. Even Londonderry and Manchester are under attack from those moving up from the south.

Watched the premiere last night. It kicked all sorts of ass, and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing where it goes. Oh, and yeah, I Anna Torv. That is all.

Oh yeah... Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles.

Ah, the great Glorificus...

I'm intrigued but not hopeful. I watched the 1st episode again tonight... I had watched the pre-air screener, and was curious to see the re-cast best friend and any other changes. It didn't hold up particularly well the 2nd time around, tough I still have no issues with Anna Paquin

x2 Struck me as a return to form. Looking forward to seeing where it goes.

Isn't that Richard Hammond for "Top Gear" and not the Dell guy

I just think pages look like ass. Fonts are grainy, icons here are jagged and pixelated. The fast load times aren't worth the trade-offs. And I can't browse the internet without mouse gestures anymore. So if everything else wasn't enough, that's a dealbreaker. I'm still fine with IE7 with the IE7Pro add-on.

Well, I'm still not quite sure what to think of this. The first few minutes establishes Anna Paquin can read minds, the availability of synthetic blood has allowed vamires to "come out" so to speak, and it takes place in a backwoods town in Louisiana. From there, even after watching the premier, I have no idea where it's going, but I'm sufficiently intriged to come back for another episode. I still need to watch "Mad Men".

"True Blood" Interesting.

You sure you can't get into trouble showing movies at a bar? It's not showing broadcast TV... I'd guess that the licensing agreement with iTunes is for personal use and not public showing.

Happy Birthday Jack!

Vehicle registration fees and new plates for the state of Maine. Jeep is legal, now I really need to sell the VW.

No, what would be funny would be trying to commute on a motorcycle with the dog who's very, very afraid of motorcycles!

Replacement for the VW GTI. Unfortunately I haven't sold the GTI yet, but I couldn't pass this one up. Hopefully I don't anger the car gods by buying before selling! Speaking which, if anyone knows someone looking for a low mileage GTI, you know where to find me!

Part of the issue with track and field in the US is that there is no organization at lower levels. Many time coaches won't talk to one another, nevermind share knowledge. Everyone is incredibly territorial, and as a result, there are different problems throughout because new ideas aren't exchanged. I see this at the college level getting athletes in the pole vault whose coaches haven't taught solid fundamentals. And when you look at the relay teams, you see the same thing. Different college coaches teach different techniques for the handoffs, and after the trials the relay teams come together and the athletes haven't necessarily raced togehter before. 2 months ago I was watching Walter Dix run for FSU at the NCAAs, and now he's running for the US team. Not exactly a lot of time to work out the details. And the issue is further complicated by the use of different relay teams throughout prelims and finals. So the handoffs can be different throughout, with limited time to practice them.

I was just at my cabin two weekends ago enjoying the singletrack. Some locals cut some amazing trails that pass within around 100m from my cabin. Of course they were cutting them on WMNF land, so the rangers are always looking for them. But they did a great job following the countours of the land and the trails go from very enjoyable to frustratingly technical constantly!

I have to think if you put as much effort into finding decent pop/rock/metal as you do into tracking down jazz, you might be pleasantly surprised The radio is most certainly not the place to be looking

You might want check them out on YouTube... I may just not like them!

That was the only exposure I've had to them, and it certainly didn't give me any reason to seek out their studio material.

The former. In fact, I think they're rather putrid. After reading so much about them, I was looking forward to their appearance on SNL and while I'm sure I could've been underwhelmed more, I'm not sure how. They were just... bad. Uninspired songwriting, horrible vocals... I heard nothing redeeming.

Incorrect.
