I have to fart, but I don't know which way to lean.

Left. Always left.

Unless you are courteous and someone is sitting to the right of you.

Damn, I've been to Leroy's more than my fair share of times and I don't think I've ever had trouble finding a seat.



Sometime soon, we need to meet up in the Franklin Street area...Kara's Mom lives within walking distance of Leroy's(not that we'd need to walk, because someone would come and get us) and Kara and I could always just crash on the guest bed if/when the inevitable happens and we can't drive.

INGO pub crawl!!!!!

I haven't been bar hopping in a couple years now. I think I'm about due.

I could really use it tonight too. Been reinstalling windows xp and copy and pasting and installing and updating and transfering and kicking and screaming and I'm about to set the antivirus and go to bed. What a friggin day. It could be worse tho!

Corner bar....for a little shuffleboard, then Leroys. The latter was standing room only.

I've only been to three bars, and that was in Canada.

Glad you can enjoy it, but I've just never found them to be fun.

I can top that, easily.

Backed up my encrypted folders without de-crypting them to an external.

Did NOT even think about backing up my encryption key.

Re-installed XP. MBR corruption. Upgraded to Vista. Vista crashed twice in three days after MBR recovery.

Lost every single document, photo, video, song, bookmark, application I had. AEFSDR Pro couldn't even find any of my decryption keys on drive. Had completely over-written them. Had non-encrypted incremental backups, but I hadn't bothered to update any of them in two years.
So now I don't bother with encryption.

Wow, that really, really blows...I hope you didn't lose anything too terribly important, but I can hope in one hand, in the other and see which one fills up faster.

Oh, man, I lost it all.

I had about 50mb of a 12gb music collection, but the rest was gone.
Most of it was replaceable except my own personal writings.
Those I'll miss, as I didn't have most of them printed.

I'm just hoping against hope that one day someone will figure out a way to bust EFS wide open and solve this particular problem.

What kind and model do you have? That's the big bummer for me when the wife is a sleep. With my 5.1 on the computer I can make out exactly where air/ground units are coming from and it's a real help that's adds to my kill ratio on BF 1942!

Fry's has BF BC2 limited edition on sale for 39.99 this week. May have to splurge and get it for the pc.

I have the Turtle Beach headset. Mine are the 1st generation model. I bought them around the time BF Desert Combat came out, so yeah they are highly durable. They also allow you to individually adjust the volume for Center, Front, Surround, and Sub. You can play with these to get a great surround experience.

Psh, you put them headphones on and I'll sneak right up and grab wallet and EDC before you even know I'm in your house!

That could happen.

I'm with ya on that one. I dont care for bars at all. Ive only been a hand full of bars,once in Texas,couple of times in Germany and a couple of times to my wife's uncle's bar in St.Louis.
I dont think I've been to any bars here in Evansville other than Woodys and that was for an outdoors concert.

 

[lovemachine]

SE, I'm wondering. When you had the gun drawn on you, did it scare the kidney stone out?

 

[IndyBeerman]

No never lean left, you'll spray like minded conservatives who are faithful to the 2nd Amendment.

Lean right and spray at will, that is unless you a liked minded person on the left also. In that case you must seek out the and drop the SBD on any anti in the area.

Bet ya I got the record here on INGO for most bars that a person has been to. Of course I was delivering to them at the time, but still I was there!

Could be......

I'd rep you for it, but it seems that I have already repped you for some senseless post not long ago and now I must hand out more rep to those who want a badge.
