    I know it's not glamorous, but aren't any retailers hiring? A lot of kids are going back to school soon, and these establishments likely have a lot of hours to fill. Sometimes you can make some good contacts (salesmen, vendors and merchandisers) who may know of other openings in the industry. If you hate your job as much as you say, it should be really easy to find a new one, even if you have restrictions on your driving because a lot of people who don't have cars take the bus to the grocery store, Target, etc. Good luck.

    RoCo, I had a yellow lab that went through the same type of stuff at about the same age as your dog. Our dog was taking human arthritis meds (the vet's suggestion) and they helped out somewhat, but it was still hard to get up from a laying position. He never indicated pain or got angry, but you could tell by his actions that things just weren't fun anymore. Once he was up and got moving he'd be fine, but then the next day would suck more because all the exercise stiffened him up. We kept at it for another six months because he didn't seem to be in any real pain or discomfort, just sore. As the winter approached though, we knew it was time to make that fateful decision as navigating the ice and snow was going to be very difficult for bathroom time. His heart was still in it, but not his hips, so we decided to put him down. It was the most heart wrenching decision we ever had to make--deciding on the fate of "someone" we loved. We gave him another month, spoiled him with love and Frosty Paws (he'd do anything for one of those) and then the day came. I cried like a baby and am slightly tearing up typing this, but the vet came to our house and administered the shot while he was in his favorite place: the grass in our backyard overlooking his woods where used to chase the deer. My thoughts go out to you and your pup.

    Another week without a drunk thread reply? I couldn't even watch the game tonight and was pleasantly surprised at the result! I'm drinking to change our fate!

    I've resigned myself to the fact that all of the cards I've saved are practically worthless due to over-production. Oh well, someday I'll go through them and have a good laugh.

    Here I thought you had a stack of cash just sitting there and you wanted to spend it.

    The Rockies scored one stinkin run, 5-2 Cubs after 8.
  7. burniebrewer
    Rockies first two hitters in the 8th have reached safely..... Edit- Bases loaded for Hawpe with no outs...

    Can you see it now, Joey? I use Firefox also and I can now see the "last poster" column--and I like that it's back.

    Not sure about the Donruss since its graded an 8. Are you talking about the one in my post above? That's just a picture of my card, not the actual one.
  10. burniebrewer
    But are they really worth that much? The Topps (one is from the traded set, I think) have been in the set boxes forever and the Donruss is in a plastic sleeve. I guess I picked the wrong upcoming superstar to collect as I've only got one each of Bonds. On the other hand, I've probably got 20 Griffey rookies.

    I've got some rookie cards: http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/cadko_1943_8654137http://www.homeruncards.com/imagesrc/1986-topps-bonds.jpghttp://www.homeruncards.com/imagesrc/bondstp.jpg

    Instead, just smile as he got torched tonight.

    Good call, Joe. It reminds me of a wall storage cube thing my daughter has in her room. Too bad you aren't looking for a big, classic entertainment center because I have one in my garage you can have.http://static.yuku.com/v2//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/laugh.gif
  14. burniebrewer
    Yeah, I forgot about the music angle.

    burnie, one of the reasons I have myspace is that it gives me the chance to kind of reunite with some of my former high school classmates I haven't seen in like 6 years. That sounds like a good reason to avoid myspace. I'm kidding ya. Besides, you can reunite at the 10-year reunion.http://static.yuku.com/v2//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif

    I could do without cable (DirecTV), but I can't give up Extra Innings. I have an excellent monitor and fast connection, so I could get the mlb.com feed, but I hate watching stuff like that on the computer.

    Like I said, I can't see why Braun or Weeks would want their lives to be more public. The guys in the minors aren't that big of a deal yet, so they can do some networking. Again, the whole Myspace thing baffles me. If my friends are looking for me, I have email, a telephone and our fantasy league message board. I guess I'm just a simple man.

    I have no idea who Ann Coulter is, and based on the political warning given, I don't care to know.
  19. burniebrewer
    I don't know much about Myspace and I don't have an account myself, but are these really their accounts? Wouldn't they have them set to private for only their friends to view? Call me a cynic, but some of these are probably fans looking to gain something by starting a page in a player's name, especially a guy like Braun or Weeks. Or maybe I'm wrong and don't get the whole importance of Myspace in our current culture and the fact that these guys are part of that.

    To steer away from the politics, I also am a very happy DirecTV subscriber.

    Firefox.
  22. burniebrewer
    How about the fact that he hit 755 off of a player who was suspended (in the minors) two years ago for steroids?
  23. burniebrewer
    I'm with Schlitz...how about some Cohiba's? Non-Cuban of course. Wouldn't want any trouble.
  24. burniebrewer
    Wearing a Cubs jersey makes Vedder even more insignificant to me.
  25. burniebrewer
    Oh goodie, Eddie Vedder. On a good note, 2-1 Metropolitans.
