Go with screened porch. You won't regret it.

Congrats Pavement! You should expect a bunch of

and

but mostly

I've had to do this at a few places, but the "self review" part of the annual review at work is just painful.

Agreed. It's just a lazy way for the company to do their reviews. My supervisor ended up changing half of what I wrote anyway.

OK found a site to load the image. You can see the small green fruits in the background.

Who knows fruit trees? I have a tree in the back yard that has a green fruit on it, and they keep falling to the ground. They seem to ooze a type of sappy substance. The nut is similar to a peach pit. But the fruit is no bigger than 1/4" thick around the pit. wtf is it? Google was no help. Hard to ...

They are insinuating, are you black... What do you insinuate when asked if you are white?

Black as in skin black, or African American black? Believe it or not, those are two completely different things. See Slappy's post above.

Seems like this is a cultural issue, not a race issue.

Just finished the part about the '60 World Series. I don't know why, since I wasn't born 17 years after it happened, but I teared up. Gave me chills thinking about it. Also made me all the more hopeful that I will someday witness a Pirates WS victory.

Sure does seem like he undershot the arrester by quite a bit. Good thing he was doing a field arrest.

I often wonder why Clemente didn't play center field. Here's a good reason why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UUy65ZpSP0 He was 36 or so at the time. I'm guessing right field at Forbes Field was even more vast. On an unrelated note, with the current Pirates, the hitter in the 2 spot - before McCu...

What do the letters N.A.A.C.P. stand for? Did she not "color" her skin? Even if she didn't, why should race play any part in who the NAACP hires as their president? Does that make them racist for only allowing blacks to be considered for presidency? If the NAACP legitimately asked her if she was "b...

Also fitting that he's wearing a LaRussa jersey. Both pompous, arrogant a-holes

Dude... Fill a bag with CLR and tie it on the shower head. Leave it sit for an hour. Whalah Yeah I contemplated running to HD to get some CLR, but I was already 2 hrs in to the project, I was alone with my 1-1/2 year old and he was napping at the time. Plus it was not on the shower head, it was on ...

For the strong skeptics of free will, how much of that belief is rooted in the absolute randomness of what happens in your life? Everyone can come up with 50, 100, 1000 different instances in their own experience, which they can point to. "If I hadn't gone to that party a week for graduation, I nev...

I nearly sent the fam to the in-laws yesterday. Was trying to replace a pressure balance valve, and the mf'er just wouldn't budge. This thing "apparently" just sits inside the shower valve, and the instructions told me to just pull the darn thing out. Uh-uh. 15 years of calcium deposits basically we...

Similar to my last post about steam coming off a pot of heated water, I've been wondering for a long time about wearing white vs. black on a hot, sunny day. I read Jurassic Park about twenty years ago, and a character mentioned "black-body radiation": But no, as a matter of fact, black is an excell...

I think it's just a preference. I once went on a business trip with a coworker going from PGH to New Jersey. We rented a car and I drove up while he drove back. I realized half-way on the way back that he wasn't using cruise control. I asked him why and he said he just doesn't like using it. Seemed ...

The water out of our break room water cooler. It has to be 32.1°

I once dumped the water out of my cup because I saw all this crap floating in there. Realized later the cooler was probably set to 31.9°

Posting in here to spare the poor home improvement folks from hearing our tales. Other 5AF parents, how sanitary would you say you are when it comes to your kids? We had the discussion about boiling breast pumps, bottles, etc. But I find I am rather laissez-faire when it comes to a lot of stuff. Fo...

I go on to this reddit thing and I have no idea what I'm looking at or how to use it. Very confusing to me.

Same here. Makes me feel old

You almost need an entire kitchen for those breast pump parts. Wash, boil, dry, pump and repeat. I guess that leads to a point for the single basins - easy for baby baths.
