If that's the case, why not ban the gangs by name? If a gang member is proud of his affiliation, it would be disrespectful to deny his membership. How many different gangs can there be? Obviously they have exclusive sponsors in the form of the clothing they wear.

What are the earliest known versions of the New Testament? Both in collective and separate form? And in how many different languages are the NT books originally from? Can you identify specific scrolls that were from the same period and potential authorship that were specifically un-cannonized and speculate as to why?

Pilebsa

I find it amusing that you're suggesting drug dealers can be identified by the brand of clothing they wear. Like they're unable to change their shirt if it allows them more business opportunities?

I just said the truth. Anybody who thinks that two people should get married before they establish a level of honest communication is an idiot. There's no nice way to put it. This is an important issue. It often involves children and other parties. If you don't have a solid relationship, don't get married. Don't bring some child into the world that will only get to see one parent sometimes on the weekend. It's unfair and irresponsible. Two people cannot peacefully coexist unless they have some kind of basic understanding.

Did you read what you wrote?

He has always been a bit of a slob and I've always been okay with that. I work less than him, so I don't mind picking up after him if his mess bothers me. .... In the last 6 months, it has gotten worse and is really affecting my feelings toward him

We both know, especially you, that you made a mistake. Maybe the mistake isn't even him being a slob? It might be you being so non-confrontational you can't solve what is otherwise a relatively simple problem.

Don't hate on me because I'm telling the truth. I'm not saying your marriage can't be saved, but these kinds of BASIC FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES BETWEEN PEOPLE need to be worked out BEFORE you agree to stay with them for the rest of your life.

Think back to every relationship you've been in that failed (well, you are 23 - you're too young to be married in the first place, so I imagine your relationship experience is limited and that's part of the problem) - chances are, what broke you up in the end was visible in the very beginning, but because you avoided confrontation and unpleasant subjects, you allowed unresolved issues to fester. You're doing the same thing again. If you can't be completely open and honest with your husband, then you have as much of a problem as he does.

Unfortunately this is a common cause of breakups of marriages and relationships. People aren't honest and open with each other. It should be a priority - hopefully you'll figure this out in this marriage, and not 2 or 3 more down the road.

Am I being a bit of an ass about it? I could probably say the same thing a little more diplomatically, but I want to drive the point home before you (and other people like you) start popping out babies and bringing kids into a broken home. You two have to have a solid, honest, open, way of dealing and respecting each other, first and foremost.

I can't wait for the hubby to post his own submission entitled, "My wife left me and I don't know why?" Then I'll jump his case too, for not paying enough attention to the fact that his wife was unhappy. But still, if you don't say anything (with the proper amount of severity and sincerity), how do you expect things to get resolved?

Not bad at all. There's a nice amount of presence in the vocals that really makes the piece work. And your song choice is most excellent!

It means you're a caring, considerate person. You'd raise great children. That IMO is one of the highest compliments anyone can pay. It means you're not selfish or self-absorbed that you couldn't provide the necessary time and direction to bring a new person into the world responsibly.

Alternatively it could also mean she wants to screw you.

Pilebsa

It blows me away that you can marry someone and then be afraid to talk with them honestly.

This is an example of two people who were not ready to be married.

You need to be able to feel completely at ease expressing whatever's on your mind with your spouse, and they should respect your feelings. That's like, prerequisite number one before even considering getting married.

Really nice work. I really like the sound of your voice. What mic and post-processing did you do on the vocal track?

Where's the video for this? Hearing a summary of quotes on Al Franken is like having someone describe a Pink Floyd album instead of hearing it.

I don't believe that anyone should actively harbor contempt for anyone over a long period of time - that kind of emotion will eat away at you, however I do believe in a construct I call "assisted entropy". If someone does you wrong, you don't have to "get even" but you also don't forget, and sooner or later, you may find yourself in a position where you can help or hurt them. I am not always a fan of unconditionally taking the high road, especially when someone does something so profoundly insensitive that it shakes your faith in humanity. Those types of people really do need to be taught a lesson because they live in their own little world and have the ability to completely zone out anyone else's feelings and ethics in favor of their own. If they have any chance of changing, it will only be via "the hard way."

In my case, the ex married a guy who screwed over a business partner of mine and I assisted in a civil case against them, that resulted in federal charges and an indictment. I had completely forgot about this woman, but when I had a chance to choose helping my loyal friend at her expense, the decision was a no-brainer.

This all changed in 1987. I keep harping about it, but the whole face of news became different once the FCC was no longer able to enforce equal time rules. After that, there was no longer a heavy line between editorial and advertising and the special interests of the station.

It's not worth much at all. And the tape speed only goes up to 7.5ips - if it did 15ips, then it would be a "studio grade" reel-to-reel and potentially be of interest to audiophiles and some people, but even then, it wouldn't be worth much. If you could get $20 that would probably be a good deal. There may be some who would pay more, but there's really no use for such a thing unless you have a bunch of reels without a player.

allegedly - for years he claimed he hadn't

What goes around comes around. I had an ex fool around on me. She's now facing 60+ years in prison. People like that, tend to have some serious karma coming back at them.

Pilebsa

Of course not. It's perfectly normal to heterosexual guy to get sex and dating advice from a guy who's never slept with a woman.

and also capitalize God

I vote against capitalizing "god".

Pilebsa

thanks!

Just installed it and it works really well... woot!

Do you make any jerky that isn't loaded with MSG?

I saw a video where they demo'd using voice commands to send sms messages. I cannot figure out how this is done under 2.2. If you say "text (name) (message)" to voice search it just pulls up Google. It doesn't appear to work on voice dial either. Anyone know?

I'm curious if the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act also protects people from being discriminated against if they're atheist?

This blog is ghost-written by Clay Harrel, who is probably the the single most important figure in modern pinball today. His online guides at marvin3m.com have helped many people repair and restore machines that would have otherwise been thrown away. He's also the guy behind Topcast - a popular pinball podcast that is no longer being produced but they have almost a hundred episodes you can download for free on iTunes with interviews from just about everybody in the industry. Clay also has written for Pingame journal in the past and was instrumental in helping Tim Arnold get the Pinball Hall of Fame off the ground in Vegas. The Pinball Ninja blog is awesome, and another example of how benevolent he is with his wealth of knowledge and experience working on pinball machines.
