@Headbanger. I agree. That's why I'm not too concerned about what's going on. Maybe (even though logic defy's it) the two sides will actually work together to figure this shit out. I'm so distrusting of our government that I don't even know who's side to take. Both sides lie out the ass and the GOP is waging such a fear campaign against "anything" Obama that it's impossible to make judgemet or decisions as to what's right. I hate our goverrnment right now. I hated republicans after G.W. but now it's just goverment period. I never thought highly of our government but right now it's just hatred and distrust.

Hmmmm...
I think that you can truly call yourself a non-computer-geek when you look at the word/acronym "WOPR" and think to yourself,"Mmmm...Burger King." That or a shameless 'murican.
A perfect comment for the Blah, indeed.
Peace, Love and Mac n Cheese.

Why, just cycle through every single number and uppercase/lowercase letter! If it had to figure out all 10 simultaneously, now THAT would take some time.
Moral of the story? Make strong passwords and always choose Chess over Global Thermonuclear War. 
Oh yeah...and don't give geeks too much free time to think about these sorts of things.

Welp, looks like the Dollar Tree is trying to bring Sweetest Day to the West Coast. Don't think it'll work, though. Halloween is just too much fun! A bunch of cards with hearts on them this late in the year isn't going to sell very well. Plus, just like with Valentines Day, any day is good day to let those you care about know how much you appreciate them.
In fact, I'll do it right now.

Glad to hear HRMG got to enjoy Saxon in Michigan. I left for the Cleveland show but I didn't make it. Ended up driving an hour for no reason. Stopped in Boardman and had dinner with the wife. Listened to Saxon all the way home which did nothing for my depression (lol). I still can't believe I haven't seen them yet. I'm not their biggest fan, I never thought alot about Biff's vocals but some of their music is heavy as hell and I can see why some like them so much. I did like their first three albums alot and from HRMG's brief description it sounds like they may have done a bit of the older stuff. If there's ever a next time maybe then. I decided to skip the Otep show next month and at least one of the MRH shows. I joke about it alot but I really do need to cut back a little.

Huh. I just read that Wiki. Didn't realize that the "holiday" was so localized. We had a Saunders candy store next to the high school and all around Detroit. Used to make a mad dash to that store at lunch as it was an open hour.
Man, what I wouldn't give for some "buttons" now. Not the ones I see prepackaged but the originals. Bought 'em by the foot!
Wow....how things have changed. Even looking for an image only generates THIS prepackaged garbage! www.amazon.com/BUTTONS-Necco-twenty-2-strip-strips/dp/B000FNB7UO
