I've done a smear in moderately baggy pants. I've tried to footbag in my really baggy gothy pants, but, not surprisingly, it doesn't work too well. They are the type that are totally black with loads of pockets and with the pant legs being about 1.2 feet in diameter near the foot. Additionally, ther...

25% off and Free Shipping at Shoes.com and a bit more...

Thanks to standard SlickDeals...

Coupon is luckybreaks7.

Technically, they have the 115% price guarantee thing which could be useful. Here's the link to their legal crap and the stuff explaining that: http://www.shoes.com/shop.asp?ShopID=PO ... _guarantee

No idea when it'll expire.

My father hates everything that I do, how I do it, and why I do it. My mother's reaction is mixed. On one side, she finds it to be beautiful in how the tricks are linked and appreciates the difficulty in doing them, but on the other side, she's under my father's influence. My grandparents are indiff...

If people only demanded less treatment, the situation would be far simpler. "Let them eat cake" he says. Rather just disallow them from knowingly engaging in an unhealthy lifestyle and then clogging the health care system with their problems that could have been easily prevented. 3. I hate to be mo...

And priority queue means people who need it more get to be higher in the queue. If you're going to die in 3 weeks without a transplant while others have at least 2 months, then the person with 3 weeks left to live and is further back in the queue will get priority. It's illegal to get ahead of the ...

1. Experimental treatments are generally free. The point is that you're a test subject and there is no guarantee of your survival. 2. Doctors in the States aren't asses. I explained in my previous post in several points how the whole system is to blame, with the idea that medical insurance is not th...

That said, the Canadian system does have it's flaws. Organ transplant lists are long and the wait tedious. It is why those with money travel to the US to skip these long waiting lists. However, on an ethical point of view, I support such a waiting list where no one is favoured and everyone treated ...

The ankle in question is still swollen, but not as much as it was at first. There's a lot of bruising visible. Directly above and below the ankle, the blue/violets are concentrated while the rest of the foot is a sickly light green/yellowish. As to mobility, I can move my toes now without any pain a...

Ugh. Sprained damned right ankle of mine today.

Then what seems like a minute a...

Newer is not necessarily better, but it tends to be for the most part. My example is with video card drivers. Hell, any software for that matter. When something first comes out, it's going to be incredibly buggy. It takes a while until these bugs are found and the proper revisions are made. Which is...

I must fit under 'ALIEN'. More realistically, I'm an extreme ectomorph. Being ~6'3"(188cm) and around 125+-5 pounds (57+-2kg) puts me on the superthin end of the spectrum. Fat is barely there. Around 2% bodyfat. Puts me at around 16 or so BMI... Oh, and I have a feeling that my bones are hollow on t...

I kneed myself a few times trying a ducking pixie too. Except it's worse for me due to the fact that I wear glasses and may as well be blind without them. It might be best to just learn to set high enough to avoid that though...at least evolution implies that.
