  1. Just watched the video... I can't believe how professional he acted during the whole ordeal. He really took it in stride.
  2. No doubt that Gimp is powerful, but I find that Paint.NET is much easier to use.
  3. Killjoy was here.
  4. I played about 4,000 hands of Sheepshead on yahoo.
  5. I give House credit for using one of my favorite songs (Teardrop by Massive Attack). I'll go with the into to the new battlestar galactica. Gives me goose bumps every time.
  6. Ace of Base, Gwen Stefani, Aqua, and "You're the Best" from the Karate Kid Soundtrack.
  7. growing a tail.
  8. My plans have changed, and I'm going to stick with Yuku (a hosted solution) for the time being. But yes, if I do end up writing my own, it will more than likely be from scratch (well, nothing's REALLY from scratch these days, as I'll be leaning on Spring.NET, NHibernate, MS Enterprise Library, etc).
  9. If it just happened, they have to wait a few days to do an MRI to allow any inflammation to go down.
  10. A drawing would be fine, much like the abstract drawing at the heading of our site. A photo of the actual park would probably not be OK.
  11. OOTP doesn't, but you can download real rosters from external sources.
  12. I'm going to make a point to start using "and that" in casual conversation, and see who calls me out first.
  13. I guess if it's deep (Leonard Cohen/Pink Floyd), I like it. If it's over the top ridiculous (like Ace of Base, Aqua, AC/DC), I like it. If it's in-between (Nickelback/Evanescence), I don't like it. But it doesn't mean other people can't like different things about music.
  14. 1 more vote for 'snows in October. It encapsulates what I think the whole contest is about.
  15. I still like Ace of Base, so I've already turned in my "cool badge".
  16. I'm a fan of lyrics where things aren't completely overt and sophmoric. Maybe even a metaphor here or there.
  17. THE BOMB: http://cms.ootpdevelopments.com/index.php?page=ootp-baseball
  18. 'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat And we'll hang out in the coolest bars In the VIP with the movie stars I guess, to me, this sounds like something a 6th grader might write.
  19. I think this pretty much sums it up
  20. Iron Eagle, of course.
  21. Arthur J Bevel, inventor of the beveled avatar.
  22. Yeah, we use the 3-tier approach as well: - Presentation Tier (Webwork/Struts2, JSP, CSS) - Business Tier (Spring) - Data Access Tier (NHibernate) I'll be doing the same thing in the .NET approach (except using Spring.NET and NHibernate instead of their Java counterparts). The reason for the move to .NET is that I find that their set of fuctionality, especially related to the web, is much richer and easier to work with than the JavaEE stack (especially when it comes to Ajax). As far as the licensing issues, it's not a problem. I have an MSDN license through my employer for development, and since the host will provide the OS and the database (SQLServer), the licensing is on their dime. I've found it's actually a little bit cheaper as well to find a .NET host than a JavaEE host. As far as work goes, unfortuantely, the work on the Java version is pretty much halted. All future development will be .NET. If that's something you're interested in, I'm trying to work out a model where contributors can donate code for certain parts of the site. I'm not going to go full open-source with the whole thing, I don't think.
  23. Currently, it's Java EE... Although i'm in the process of rearchitecting to .NET, as that's the direction my day-job career has taken.
  24. The club's already pushing an 80M payroll. He's strictly a third baseman, and another righty to boot. As a starter, a team could probably do worse, but as a backup, there's no value, especially for the cash.
  25. Girl fights are vicious... Hair pulling, biting, etc. They don't follow the geneva convention of schoolyard ruffhousing. The nice thing about when two guys used to duke it out, was that they'd probably be friends 45 minutes later.
