Paul,   Yes, that's right. You remember in school when you had to play a game at PE that "all the kids could play" (even those without athletic ability) ? Sure you do. And the choices were kickball and soccer. This hub bub is about soccer, or communist roundball as it is also known.   Cparker

I'm just going to wait for llwydtp to post and copy his answers.     Cparker

I do not think so, though the recruiter and HR both debate this with me. It appears to me any savings on state taxes will be offset by property taxes in DFW.

So after contracting for two years, the company I have been contracting with made me an offer. While the offer is ok, there are issue not worth detailing. Best to say that I do not see this offer as a long term based on corporate volatility.   I interviewed with and received an offer with a...

Congratulations and best wishes for your new venture.

Tampa Humidor (just across the bridge from St. Pete to Tampa) has always treated me well and has a nice selection of cigars.   1418 E Busch Blvd, Tampa, Fl. 33612 (813) 990-8535   Tampa is cigar city. I have never had the time but I believe the Fuente has or used to have a tour of their factory...

Outstanding. And sound advice.

LMAO at the "third win".   Cparker

Probably more a generational thing.   When I was a kid, my godparents had cable television (All of about 12 channels, including the Atlanta ABC affiliate). At home we had 3 channels and rabbit ears (my dad would not pay for television). Home channelrs were the CBS affiliate, the NBC affiliate...

Soccer is a gentleman's game played by hooligans. Rugby is a hooligans games played by gentleman.   As a ex-rugger, this is all communist round ball to me.   Enjoy gentleman, but lets not waste too much time on this.  We're Americans. We DON"T DO soccer except for PE.   <joking>

Prize shipped !

Agreed. The Godzilla in the current film kinda reminds me of a tyrannosaurus rex with a shrunken head.   And, Ultraman ruled !!!   Cparker

 Did both in my younger days, even learned to spit through my catcher's mask so I did not have to lift it up. Then learned that lighting was better than biting. Besides, I can't wear a Panama hat as I am too fat for a double breasted suit.

I just wear a baseball cap and turn my head when I exhale.    Cparker

Brickhouse shoots and scores ! Yep, Ultraman. One of my favorite shows as a kid when I had access to cable television.   PM me your addy and I'll ship your prize.   As for the movie, I thought it was ok. Paid matinee price so that made it better. Better than the remake from 17 years ago, but I...

I attended a Gurka event, and got a nice deal on some cigars. As part of the deal, I was gifted some Gurka Ghost Robustos. So, here's a contest for a Gurka Ghost Fiver, and some other stuff to be known to the winner.     I saw the current Godzilla movie yesterday. However, Godzilla was a part of...

I blame Al at PuffnStuff for getting me hooked on Lanceros years back. (Also when he would post his deals).   Smaller ring gauges have been my preferred size since.    Me think Doc protests too much.

Math equations, Red Sox, and male nipples ? This thread is going in bad directions on multiple vectors.
