:rolleyes: I am not sure who really WANTS to eat it for any meal. But I guess someone does as they have begun a rapid expansion out of the traditional mall and airport food court, they are popping up everywhere standalone now.

It was 98 degrees here today. Combine that with the humidity and it was :rolleyes:X10. Spent most of the day indoors. :(

+1, though not beyond, just kida normal.

I'm sure it's not a problem anymore but I know a few years ago many American women had problems there. The locals thought they were there to steel their children and take them back to the US so they took matters into their own hands. Princeton has a large Guatemalan community so it was in the local papers and I think the State Dept. had an advisory for a while.

You need to buy a good SD card for a DSLR which cost more than the standard ones you see all over the place. A recommendation is the SanDisk Extreme III.

Getting there! Having many beers here in YVR...met up with mersk852 too!

Should come down to SEA, all boxians are welcome.

I don't agree completely with Carlin here. Each war kept the proximal physical and psychological triggers of the earlier ones, but added new, more terrible ones on top. The expanding verbiage somewhat reflects the required expansion of definition.

In any case, we were referring to the trigger of low flying planes, which had one day destroyed a part of many persons' image of their home and their safety, as well as vaporized people from whom many were not more than one or two degrees of separation removed. That's very different than combatants' shell shock.

Although I did have beer before 0900 while watching the World Cup, I am not drunk.

I know. I have an HD video camera which requires a class 4 SDHC card. Have to spend some $ for a faster speed card.

I just opened a UA penalty box.

Oh my!:eek: Well sounds like you survived!;)

They are perfectly cast for a reality TV show. After hours on cable:rolleyes:

Uh...why?:confused: Are you leaving 'us'!:rolleyes:

:rolleyes: no worries, he won't be going anywhere, that thread won't make it past tonight.

I disagree. The Carlin bit deals not so much with the cause of the problem, but the euphemistic language involved. If the euphemism is being expanded to include anyone who suffers some kind of problem after a traumatic event, then the use of euphemistic language is appropriate. I lean more with George on nearly everything, and I share his pessimistic view toward euphemistic language. It is generally used to insulate oneself and to shield people from the reality of something.
