Ok, Dave 3626, you'll overtake me. I've been averaging 1.5 m/day and you are doubling that somehow. I bow to your skillz! {nm} arf Apr 22, 11:22

Maybe, maybe not. Either way, we're headed to 200M together. When we get there, I'm celebrating with beer and maybe fireworks. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 22, 11:57

In a totally non-gay way, though, right? {nm} arf Apr 22, 12:08

Totally non-gay. More Viking-like. "The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands", new lands with lots of fake $$ {nm} Dave3626 Apr 22, 12:36

Besides that, my heart belongs to Dayanna Mendoza, until Selena Gomez drops Beiber, then I'm all hers. Dave3626 Apr 22, 17:55

I like January Jones, she's from here, Jennifer Love Hewitt would be OK, and I'd let Julianne Hough have me. {nm} arf Apr 22, 19:38

I forgot about Julianne Hough :-(. How did I do that? She's near perfection, I admit. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 23, 08:19

Shame on you for forgetting about Julianne! You are now only 700k behind me and I'm at #3. I gotta work a lot this week, so no gains. :( {nm} arf Apr 24, 11:26

You're going to let work get in the way of a game? Wow. Talk about mixed up priorities. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 24, 17:42

Can you play with fake money? {nm} arf Apr 22, 11:24

Not like HSX dollars penny stock and standard stock is real money however there are brokers that offer accounts for "paper trading." {nm} momentum858 Apr 22, 11:40

Browser based and free or close to free? I want to see if I can beat my fund mgr. I'm almost certain I couldn't do worse, but who knows. {nm} arf Apr 22, 20:25

#pokerchip will not make a call on the OKC Thunder/Lakers game but we are a 1pt fav and I am ready for a tip-off; we have bigs that match-up damenchipguy Apr 22, 10:51

I love dogs, I have a dog, but if I see a sign in let's say a cemetery that says "No dogs allowed" I keep the dog out. Why is so bleepin' Dave3626 Apr 22, 06:23

And some people are abusing the "Service Dog" rule. CrankYanker Apr 22, 08:03

Sort of on topic, google "Seeing Eye Cat", the stories are hilarious. {nm} arf Apr 22, 11:12

Torres gets 25 game suspension (link) tealfan Apr 21, 10:00

3rd suspension in 13 months + stupid hit to the head... 25 games is a good beginning! nomyst Apr 21, 10:07

As i have said before i am not a big follower of ice hockey but having seen the video is 25 games enough also blaze223 Apr 21, 12:06

you forfeit your salary while on suspension {nm} Moviesnob Apr 21, 12:51

The 25 games, is really not my problem... nomyst Apr 21, 17:50

Mathematical Equation - Charging + Interference + Late Hit + Hit to the Head + Repeat Offender + Feet Left Ice = 25. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Apr 21, 21:05

That sounds like every hockey game ever played that was worth watching. Though I learned most of hockey from "Slap Shot" {nm} arf Apr 22, 19:41

Isn't it ironic? ndmaster Apr 20, 22:28

i dunno islander Apr 21, 09:07

I was sure any reply would include a bad Alanis Morrisette joke. Good for you for showing restraint. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 09:58

dang, that's what I was going to post! {nm} arf Apr 21, 10:48

There you are. Conversation officially moved. So why are you named after a rifle? {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 11:29

I was made aware of HSX forever ago, 2004, I think, by members of ar15.com, my "home forum", called ARFCOM by most all. I borrowed the arf. {nm} arf Apr 21, 11:54

Makes sense. I have to admit, tho that every time I see it I think of Alf. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 12:37

I guess I could change it, but I think alf is taken. I'm too used to it now anyway. Is 3626 your PIN? {nm} arf Apr 21, 13:04

No. My PIN is actually.. wait a second. Pretty tricky, there, weren't you? {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 13:33

Due to my sloppy mousing w/Port Monkey, you are now only 4m behind. :( I'm gonna see what the nice 40mph wind is like outside. {nm} arf Apr 21, 14:40

40 mph? sounds like a nice breeze {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 15:04

Very stiff breeze, blows you off the bike. I switched to the manual bicycle and the tree covered bike trail and it was better. -more- arf Apr 21, 17:09

Good thing Anaconda has already delisted. {nm} BionicMoron Apr 21, 11:53

I was asked today; A. Sandler works with the same actors in many movies, why has he not worked with B. Frazier since Airheads? Any insight? damenchipguy Apr 20, 16:38

He must have have a friendship with S. Buscemi he seems to be in most Sandler flicks. Simply I could not answer the question. damenchipguy Apr 20, 16:42

no one is working with fraser these days {nm} islander Apr 20, 17:37

Do we know why, his films seem to decent. I was more curious if there wany any known riff between the two. damenchipguy Apr 20, 19:36

you could try asking him on facebook or twitter? {nm} islander Apr 21, 09:08

2 Broke Girls premiered on british tv last night good but nowhere near as good as big bang theory {nm} blaze223 Apr 20, 01:18

You're a fan of BBT? I love that show. {nm} dave3626 Apr 20, 07:29

bazinga! {nm} islander Apr 20, 10:36

My favorite episode is when they flashback to the day Leonard met Sheldon and they had the roommate interview. {nm} dave3626 Apr 20, 11:00

Too many laugh until your belly hurts to just pick one great moment {nm} blaze223 Apr 20, 12:05

when Penny gives Sheldon a napkin autographed by Leanord Nimoy :) {nm} tealfan Apr 20, 12:09

It's got his DNA! {nm} Dave3626 Apr 20, 12:37

I can make my own Spock! {nm} tealfan Apr 20, 13:06

when Penny & Leonard were still broken up and they took turns taking care of Sheldon...like a divorced couple {nm} tealfan Apr 20, 13:15

btw Blaze, if you're British, I'd like to thank your people for Keeping Up Appearances and Are You Being Served. Dave3626 Apr 20, 15:34

Having read the full post i realize at that time of night all you need is a bit of inoffensive humour to relax the mind blaze223 Apr 21, 01:38

Oh I'd watch them at any time though. They're like the comfort food of TV. For laugh-until-I-cry kind of funny I prefer Fawlty Towers. {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 08:47

What you really need is only fools and horses,dinnerladies,yes minister,men behaving badly,absolutely fabulous blaze223 Apr 21, 11:46

Vicar of Dibley for dessert, maybe? {nm} Dave3626 Apr 21, 12:34

hey tough guy...how about revealing which team you root for? {nm} tealfan Apr 20, 12:17

GO BLUES!!! {nm} JDolphin Apr 20, 13:49

It's been on the Calendar since Tuesday. {nm} Antibody Apr 19, 15:34

so, how come they are still active? weren't they halted before as soon as the fate of the show was known? {nm} Oleg Max Apr 19, 17:31

TV stocks are halted when they are canceled; they are never halted because they finished a season {nm} RazorHawk Apr 19, 18:45

On your HSX Dude TV Update you have UPALNT delisted and it hasn't {nm} JDolphin Apr 19, 22:06

idealy it should have delisted last Monday since the season was over {nm} RazorHawk Apr 20, 09:27

What is easier to learn, Spanish or French? {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 09:47

Spanish. Maybe I'm biased with spanish being my native language, but seems to me french should be harder for an american to pronunciate... slappydavid Apr 19, 10:03

Being French canadian, I thought French would be easier... nomyst Apr 19, 10:08

I would have figured that being French-Canadian you would've already been bilingual. {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:22

Well, I guess I am since I'm speaking to you right now in English... nomyst Apr 19, 10:31

I meant raised bilingual. Just assumed most families in that part of Canada would use both languages. Guess I was wrong :-) {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:35

Hehe :) Not quite, but ... nomyst Apr 19, 10:38

Is there still a strong push for the region to secede from Canada? {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:41

Hard to tell... Depends on which side you are :P nomyst Apr 19, 10:46

One of these days I'll actually visit Canada. Would love to drive straight across country, from Montreal to Vancouver. {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:55

At least start from Quebec city... nomyst Apr 19, 10:57

I'd get in trouble for saying "KWUH-bec" instead of "Keh-BEC".. I still say Eye-ran and Pack-ih-Stan, not stahhn (sorry Obama) {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 11:09

If you say 'J'aime KWUH-bec', we forget really fast the pronunciation :P. {nm} nomyst Apr 19, 11:11

Yep I'm American. Never picked up a language in high school and was thinking of doing it now. {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:21

Sincerely, I'd take Spanish first. nomyst Apr 19, 10:27

You're absolutely right about Spanish being more useful here. It's amazing how much of it is appearing even in the supermarket on the dave3626 Apr 19, 10:36

Short on Spanish speakers? You must be in Idaho. ;-) CrankYanker Apr 19, 11:02

Yeah, why a person would want to go from sunshine and warmth to a city that turns into ice and wind in the winter, I have no idea. {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 11:05

Depends on what your own language is, but I think Spanish is easiest for English speaking students. {nm} CrankYanker Apr 19, 10:29

I am a native English-speaker. No longer a student. Thanking God every day for the latter. {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 10:44

In the usa would spanish not be more use,french was a pain in the **** to learn,and the only useful phrase blaze223 Apr 19, 11:59

lol :-) {nm} dave3626 Apr 19, 12:22

LOL, I just went on lifehacker and this was on the most recent post nomyst Apr 19, 15:15

Not bad, Islander. But, here's the funniest thing you will see all day... edzep Apr 18, 14:19

Le pretty good :) As for British comedy, I usually like that too. Probably Are You Being Served would be my favorite {nm} islander Apr 18, 19:53

What decade are you in next it will be all steptoe and son and dads army {nm} blaze223 Apr 19, 01:30
