Goodwin 1st MRB

I'm resurrecting this from the dead. Why? I'm curious - did this ever happen?

Interestingly enough, I was considering doing something similar - although not with Angular (yuck); just going to use a nice PHP framework. I feel Angular just is more complicated than it needs to be (apparently, I am not alone) I'll admit, I don't know much about node besides it looks really cool - I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. I was considering Laravel 5 - basically automating most of everything (including the creation of post markup depending on task performed). I'm interested to see how this plays out - let me know if you need help!

Whatever beer I have in my keggerator (homebrew); I generally try to have 3-4 varieties on tap at any given time. A stout of some sort (in there now is an Agave Imperial Stout), an IPA of some sort (Zombie Dust clone), a lighter ale of some sort (New Glarus Spotted Cow clone) but right now tap #4 is empty Given the great weather I'd like to brew - but all my brew stuff is in the process of being packed up in hopes of our move to our new house. Commercial beer I enjoy? Well, that depends. I don't mind cheap stuff - Moosehead is probably my favorite of the cheaper stuff. Wild Onion (local chicago area brewery) makes a double IPA called Hop Slayer that is FANTASTIC! Beers I try to have on hand at any time include: various New Glarus offerings, Moosehead, Old Rasputin (russian imperial stout), and Hop Devil - this usually can answer to about any taste someone might have while hanging at my house when they're in the mood for commercial stuff. Hard liquor? Depends on my mood. I found MY whiskey - Cabin Fever - the best (sweetest) maple whiskey I've ever had. Just put that shit on ice and sip away. I've got some scotch, rum, vodka, various puckers, tequilas, various schnapps, etc. At our wedding we had over $1k worth of various hard liquors to try and appease any appetite. The only thing that got drank really was about a 1/2 bottle of Vodka (of which we had 3 or 4 I think). So our cabinet is stocked - but I tend to stick to a beer here and there with some whiskey every now and again.

Gonna ask what may be an odd question - but seeing as we have a lot of SNES love (I had every gaming system growing up, Nintendo, Sega, SNES, Playstation, etc.); I used to be a gaming NERD.. Big time. There was a game for SNES that was insanely fun - called Uniracers (IIRC) - does anyone remember it? Turns out it only was sold during initial release (300k copies) then had to stop because Pixar sued the game due to the fact that their unicycle looked too much like some short video they made in 1987. I played that game a lot. I loved it. Over the years I forgot about it. Considering trying to revive it by making a port for mobile phones - curious if anyone remembers it.

Firstly, I hope everyone has a great thanksgiving day! Secondly, I wanted to thank everyone for being a part of one of the best communities on the internet. I've been a member here for a good number of years now and I can say without question that this community is the best around. The friendships I've established over the years have surpassed the online world and I've met a good handful of you in person (or will in the future). Members that are no longer part of the unit, current members and members who were around before this unit even began - and I have had the good great fortune to meet, play with and hang out with many of you often. Thank you for the years of fun gaming, the years of great chatter on vent, the years of laughter and good times shared together. I think the 1st MRB really embodies the idea of Thanksgiving and is deserving of a holiday as such. Yes, I know Thanksgiving is so much larger than the 1st MRB, but there is something to be said about our unit and this holiday. The 1st gives back to it's members the same as it's members give their time and dedication to this unit. That's what originally drew me into this unit years ago - the word of the unit was exemplified by every member and there was such depth of character. Everyone brings something to the unit - and everyone has the same opportunity to take things away from this unit; friendships, skills, abilities and more. Thanks to everyone - I feel like a really lucky fellow to be part of such an amazing unit with some of the best players and people on the internet. Again - I hope everyone enjoys this day with family and friends - eat well, stay warm and have a great day. If anyone is in need of a place to go - if you're in the Chicago area, feel free to stop by. More than enough Turkey and fixins for many here and we're always glad to have more to celebrate with. Cheers guys & gals - stay safe and enjoy the holiday.

Agreed. Sit in PVP long enough and you get epics. Roll through the LFR feature these days - get epics. There are so many mods/addons that basically play the game for you - "SHIT ON THE FLOOR, MOVE" "STUFF FALLING ON YOU, MOVE", "DPS NOW", etc. Our guild was alliance and in WoTLK we were top 3 on our server for most of the expansion. That said, we were also a CASUAL raiding guild, only 2 nights per week - and we were able to be top 3 on the server. That was the big sign to me that said "this shit is too easy these days" and I quit playing after Cataclysm. It just lost it for me. Too much grinding to get to end game, only to see n00bs who don't do shit getting end-game quality gear while the raiders work their ass of for the same gear. PvP was a fun aspect too, but they babied that up too - play enough? Get the epics. Then just wait around to roll n00bs. I'm over my WoW days for sure - boredom makes me consider reinstalling, but then I remember they make you pay to play. Nah, too many other free games that are just as good for killing time and less filled with e-peen loving children. I work for a school district - one of the Assist. Principals at one of the schools plays WoW, he loves it. He's kind of new to it (I think he got into it around Cataclysm, maybe WoTLK); he talks to me about it all the time. The more he talks about it the more it makes me realize "wow, they've babied this game down to almost no skills involved at all levels - so glad I quit" Don't do it Viktor. I griped about the loss of 50-man raids since day 1 of BC until the day I quit playing. It killed so much of the 'group' orientation of the game.

Just woke up after a food coma.... wow! Thanks guys ... but I should stop eating so much Hungry Jack.

I heard it will have HL3. I'm excited because it's going to Linux. Games are the only reason I use Windows - Linux is better IMO. If all the games are available on Linux and this causes a huge push (like it should) for linux based systems - I'll be one happy camper on that goal alone.

I currently have both an iPhone5 (work) and a Galaxy S3 (personal). I updated to iOS7 - I was underimpressed by a lot. They finally got around to making the interface more like... well... Android. They put features into iOS7 that Android has had for well over a year now (almost 2!). Needless to say, I was hugely let down. There is literally no real innovation in iOS7, they were just 'catching up' to where Android was a year ago. The new Android is almost out (if not out now, I'm not sure); so why they made iOS7 so under-whelming is surprising to me. I prefer Android because it's far more intuitive and user friendly on almost every level - and important things (to me) like VPN and hot-spot are very simple to get to (2-3 taps on the screen) - on the iPhone I have to search for specific apps to help the phone do what I need it to and it can be less that intuitive. Even after 3 months, I'm still finding things about the phone that make me go "ohhhhhh, that is how you do that?", because it's just not as easy/uncomplicated as Android. So when iOS7 was more like Android - at first I was excited, then I realized that was almost all it was - more like Android. Nothing that really set it apart or made it any better than Android - just a lot of features that tried to make it more like the current (aging) Android. I was hugely let down. I was also hugely let down by the 5s release - the list of 'new' or 'innovative' features on that phone is almost non-existant and outdone by the latest Android phones that have been on the market already. iPhones are a dying thing IMO, and the latest iOS kind of proves that - they're doing their best to keep up, but only that - just keeping up, not innovating.

That was HILARIOUS!!! So funny in fact that I posted it to my wifes facebook. I laughed so hard my wife was like "what? what is so funny!??!?"

Pretty much sums up how I see reenactments. Very cool that they have all the equipment and vehicles. But I could never be in one nor watch. Cool video though! I have a friend out in PA who used to say the same thing. He was into WWII - but would have never 'done that'. Finally, he broke down and tried one. He's hooked, can't stop going to them and getting further and further into it.

for $5, I had to. I just... had to.
