    Some tourists in the Museum of Natural History are marveling at some dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard, "Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?"

    The guard replies, "They are 65,000,011 years old."

    "That's an awfully exact number," says the tourist. "How do you know their age so precisely?"

    The guard answers, "Well, the dinosaur bones were sixty five million years old when I started working here, and that was eleven years ago."

    These posts make you look like a douche. Even more so when you can't even get it right.

    Results are in! I just read the thread! Bones started the fight with King, and kept fighting long after King left! Denny should fund the Blazer Asylum for Crazy-Ass Posters and commit him!

    Not joking. 2 days ago I was reading about Reynolds' number. A measure of viscosity.

    10 minutes after Overtime started, someone woke up...

    What happened to grandjury; he was apparently gone by the time I got home from work and got on the thread.

    I lived there 1959-61. Excellent woods for treehouses.

    Nope, you just looked at points. Aminu won it with late 3s. Overall boxscore efficiency per minute was 1) Davis, 2) Turner, 3) Connaughton. I didn't quote the many posts that were disgusted with McCollum's tunnel vision events.

    That's it, folks!

    I watched the Atlanta telecast when we played a couple of days ago, and the drumming and other timeout music was just like a cat screeching its claws on the floor.

    In theory you are probably right, but to be honest I prefer in situations like last night they take the shot. Just as easy to miss on the pass then to miss on the shot, especially when you consider cJ is not a pin point passer and Nurk has a tendency to fumble away passes. And the fact that Nurk was around the basket...he also had a decent chance to follow with a tip. Obviously in hind site yes he should have passed (on the one the play I remember) since the result did not result in a score. But the shot he took was a good one. It was not some wild shot from 27 feet.

    Was it due to Marazul's Naval Architecture posts and implied lack of CFD in "landlubber" design? :)

    Actually, @jlprk , it wouldn't surprise me if you'd found this video and started looking up Kutta-Joukowski flow and Magnus forces...

    Beating the Bulls by 4 in the 120 range proves we have slipped backwards on D. The ATL loss still pisses me off!!! I watch the Ravens kill themselves and then my beloved Blazers head into King James kingdom. How much can an honest man bear? thV61CQJY5.jpg

    New Years Resolutions are stupid.

    If you don't have the discipline to just do it when you need to, you will not follow through with some resolution.

    Those that know they need to make a change and succeed at it, will do it when it is needed. Not wait for some special date to flip the switch.

    It is funny though talking to friends who lose 20lbs by march, only to be 20lbs heavier than when they started in September.

    Or whatever the resolution is...
