Out of the Blue

I had an adventure last night finding a previously never-visited (by us) train station after MrsBlue capped off a late night in the city by sleeping past her stop. I had one doozy of an adventure many years ago when I did the same thing myself on a subway ride... I think everyone who has ever commuted probably has one such story, a failure of the so-called "commuter's instinct" that usually wakes one before this happens. I also think many folks never repeat the experience, as the fear of reliving the trauma is enough to prevent it. I'm guessing this will be the case with MrsBlue, as she didn't seem to be able to find any amusement in this at all.

45. Recruiting... Jul 18, 2003, 18:48 wasrad
 
...I am looking for gamers interested in joining a hardcore Operation Flashpoint Squad.

We play vetern, which means no crosshairs, no extended map info, no HUD help, using the map the hardcore way, etc...

Need to be able to follow orders from your higher ups. Knowledge of real world squad tactics is not neccesary so long as you do as ordered.

Experienced OFP vets are welcome but not neccesary.

You will be assigned your role in the squad based on your abilities, be it sniper, machine gunner, grenader, etc...

IM me at photonforu on AIM if you are interested or go to #DaveysEradicators on irc.gamesnet.net.




If you live in or near San Diego, that is a MAJOR plus being that 3 of us live here.

My girlfriend was out on a school trip one time, on a coach with a load of other people. They drove past a truck on the motorway and the driver was totally naked, jerking off.

Interesting sight for a coach full of 11 year old kids.

Yech.

I think they're making fun of how Taco Bell has no meat in their tacos. Where do they buy those smaller ice cream scoop things?

40. Dangerous foods while driving Jul 17, 2003, 23:34 ExcessDan
 
Tacos. "A food that can disassemble itself without much help, leaving your car looking like a salad bar," says Hagerty.

What kind of a salad bar has ground beef at it? No wonder Americans are so fat with those kinds of salad bars!!

and this person had BOTH hands on the wheel
Even though most people are taught to drive with both hands on the wheel, usually "10 and 2". This is actually not safe. It is good when you are first learning to drive, as it makes your mind "Ready", but bad once you learn to drive. For one, most people usually find the position uncomfortable, and a uncomfortable driver will have more tension, which slows reaction time. It should also be noted that always keeping both hands on the wheel, if you do need to make a 'quick' turn, having both hands on the wheel in the aforementioned position, the forearms can interfere with each over, causing you to have to lift one hand over the other, slowing reaction time down ever more.
Just thought I would point that out, since your thing would been really funny if ya had not mentioned that. Not to mention the fact that I feel like being a smartass right now.

That is why we need monorails.
Could we still fight prostate cancer on the monorails?

when i was in the US i saw fat people eating and driving all over the place, some even had microwaves strapped to the passenger seat. They really should review the education system in the US.

You guys won't believe what I saw this morning. I watched this person drive with windows down, I could hear no loud blaring music, he had nothing to read, nothing to drink or eat, no visible DVD or GPS screens, no kids or passengers for distraction, no phone, and this person had BOTH hands on the wheel. I couldn't believe my eyes, the nerve of people these days, it boggles my mind!

i was just out blading and some guy was riding his bike coming at me head on and swerving back and forth so I couldn't go around him... he was riding his bike and reading at the same time.. i could have died

I was driving on my lunch hour today and saw some insane person riding his bicycle on the shoulder of the highway. He had 3 lanes of traffic on one side, and a 10ft high concrete barrier on the other. So it's not like he could go anywhere if a car swerved at him. Musta had a death wish...

What about masturbating while driving? Is that a ticketable offense? Is it considered distracting?
