  1. Why don't the Harlem Globetrotters win every NBA championship? They seem so dominant in the sport.

      I've often wondered why the Globetrotters aren't in the NBA.

      Getting paid off happens all the time. Why would you pay a potential 5 years plus in lawyers fees versus a settlement that may only be what it would cost you for that lawyer for 1 year?

      To be fair, that's where The Wizard belonged in the first place.

      Of course, we don't know what exactly happened but I guess he held her hand and asked for an affair. He was 17. Sounds like puppy love or something. Not that it wasn't distressing for the woman.

      As I posted in the thread, this article is bullshit. You can read Tesla's response in the thread.

      we always had to wait for the dry cleaners next door to throw away their 5 gallon bleach containers. Would pour out what we could and used a turkey baster to suck up the rest. Now those were the days!

      Well, technically it is a receipt of your transaction with the debit machine, is it not?

      It's the very definition of a receipt..."a written acknowledgment of having received, or taken into one's possession, a specified amount of money, goods, etc."

      LOL ok I know that song just not the quote.

      The 'Hold' function at work requires a phone number on the tags, and the computer won't let 1234 go- so Jenny holds a lot of crap where I work.

      @Atarian7 - I assume you don't know what the song is about then?

      Pingplotter doesn't separate the upload packet loss from the download packet loss. The modem is CGNM-3552-ROG

      That's what I take, generic Zrytec. It's like 15 bucks for a year supply at Costco. Kirkland brand. The other ones don't work for me

      Claritin works well enough for me, but it isn't the strongest option out there, and it seems that you have to take it for two or three days before it begins to have an effect.

      My former family doctor was afraid of seeing blood, but specialized in allergies. Unfortunately (?) I'm not aware that I'm allergic to anything, so I never got to test his skills.
