  1. Me too. I'd much rather have a Seamaster than a similar Rolex.
  2. @Ryan - Of course we don't want to arm teachers and other private citizens in the hope that it will reduce or end these kinds of shootings. I shudder to think how untrained (or poorly trained) armed people would react in such a situation. Take for example the "Batman" movie theater shooting. If everybody in the theater would have been armed, I suspect that many more people would have died due to the panicked movie goers wildly shooting in an attempt to defend themselves. IMO, one of the biggest, if not the biggest reasons we have more gun violence than other first and second world countries is that we have a "gun culture". It's culturally drummed into our heads from an early age that using guns are a good way to solve problems. Our movies reflect it. Our computer games reflect it. Our literature reflect it. Our foreign policy often reflects it. Unfortunately the reality of using guns to solve problems rarely matches our cultural beliefs. Until we can change this gun culture, we will continue have gun violence incidents.
  3. One victim, the shooter's mother, was armed. The shooter used guns she owned to shoot her and the others. Being armed not only didn't help her, it helped lead to her death. When it comes to guns and gun ownership, you're a paranoid idiot. Now I can go back to ignoring the nonsense you post.
  4. Belated Happy Birthday. :prettyprincess:
  5. Very belated Happy Birthday, Tom. :prettyprincess:
  6. I suggest that you don't take Parasitology or you will become a vegetarian again, at least for a long while. Ah, then he was the very model of a modern Major General?
  7. Yes, they show their dinosaur heritage. What are your plans with the babies? If you want them to be human friendly, you need to take them away from their parents and raise them yourself. Then they will be "hand fed" and will be more bonded to humans.
  8. FIFM
  9. Both bikes look great. However, this picture points out to me how much I aesthetically prefer a horizontal top tube. Maybe I'm old school, but I'm probably just old. Stop drinking alcohol for a month while changing no other part of your diet or activity level. I bet that you'll lose weight. I also bet that I would too.
  10. Belated Happy Birthday, Haj. :prettyprincess: I hope that it was a good one.
  11. Belated Happy Birthday, Gene. :prettyprincess: It's great to see you here. Hopefully I'll get to see you in person on your next visit to the left coast.
  12. The "I've forgotten my password" is broken. Neither anti-spam task nor the data entry field for it is displayed. So the password recovery request always fails.
  13. Belated Happy Birthday, Bryan. Congrats in starting to save for a ring. Allison is definitely a keeper.
  14. In. Thanks for organizing this, Nate. It's a great way to get to know other HC members.
  15. Vicki, you seem to have a "nice bike" addiction. Do you know of a good place where you could get that treated?
  16. Belated Happy Beerday, Jeff! It sounds like you had an epic day.
  17. Is there bacon inside the pastry? If not, why not?
  18. Since nobody else has reported getting these unexpectedly, I must have been stupid.
  19. Hope you and your cat feel better soon, Ric. I also hope that everybody on HC had a great T-Day (if applicable). Ah, you watched the Jets game, then. There were 4 of us at my sister's house for Thanksgiving. We had a nice time.
  20. I agree. Looks yummy!
  21. I agree about "bcc", but this email was headphone specific. Who knows, maybe I visited their website and stupidly signed up for emails. Anyway, I've removed myself from their list.
  22. I just got spam email from CEntrance. They referred to HF to help sell their product. The only place I can think of where they could have gotten my email addy is HF. Has anybody else received this spam? I guess it's time to delete my account on HF.
  23. Congrats, CJ! Which med school was it? Good luck to you, Jacob. Re: Hostess. I always liked SnoBalls, which are basically a hostess cupcake encased in a coconut-based outer layer.
  24. Happy Birthday, John Hope you have lots of great beer tonight.
