I'm probably going to be doing AUS-IAH-STL on the 11th. :rolleyes:

I use to live in STL. I really hated living there.

Or another sport - think potential college scholarships.

STL is good for scheduling MRs.

Let's do a little math. 95M is about 170 out. 30 seconds a post, that's an hour 25 with no one else. I've got 105-30 = 75 minutes left on this movie, so I'll probably miss it. If I do, good luck, sfogate!

He's really good in soccer but has lost that mental drive that you need to get a scholarship. I can't seem to get him to turn on that little switch in his head. I want him to play soccer in Europe and buy me a house. He gives me one of these :rolleyes:

Thanks.

Of course my computer is running slow.

It's also good for a direct hit. I use to say that I should write a letter to Moscow asking that they re-direct some of their warheads. I really had a tough time living there.

Out over open Atlantic, with prevailing westerly winds in New England, I guess I can see the strategic logic. But those Nike missiles ringed the industrial centers inland, too. So a detonation of one protecting Chicago would have been in the troposphere over, like, Peoria. Wiki says they carried 2.5KT. That's half of the Hiroshima bomb. Can't see the logic there, so much.

Intermission is more than over, I hear.

STL should replace Springfield from the Simpsons as the designated NWB (Nuclear Whipping Boy) for calibration of weapons?

Jersey has some quaint zip code ways. E.g., Point Pleasant Beach and Bay Head share a common zip code. And both have some identically named streets. It's completely up to the competence of the USPS staff to route the mail properly.

The town I grew up in was split amongst five different post offices. A few years ago they finally got their own zip code.
