Re: MIT Engineers
"my daughter is turning 16 and I ask her what kind of car she wants - her answer is she doesn't care as long as its yellow or purple"
That was my daughter last year except it was "orange pearlescent". Finally settled on a little old silver Mazda RX8 I paid about $4,500 because I was told, "It's not how good the car looks, it's how good I look driving it."
My oldest boy was more practical with his 2000 Honda Accord we purchased 4 years ago and still has it. He's a little miffed with me that I let her have the RX8 which is the most impractical car you can buy.

Re: MIT Engineers
yea my son is already giving me shit about her car because I'm looking at Mini-Coopers for her.
of course she is a straight A student and he is majoring in lunch.

I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Re: MIT Engineers
funny, I actually have a weber kettle charcoal grill I never use because I bought a weber gas grill. I could see me doing that - especially starting a charcoal grill with gas.hedge wrote:For eCat...

btw, there is a huge difference in weber grills and those cheap ass things you buy at big box stores (although they sell weber too).
Unless you get a a Green Egg or something of that variety, do yourself a favor, spend $150 on a good used weber gas grill, buy new guts for another $100 and you'll have a great grill for the price of one those that last 4 years .

Re: MIT Engineers
remember the movie "Catch me if you can" with DiCaprio and Hanks?
reading up on the guy the movie was based on - at or around the age of 18 he did this
"Abagnale's early confidence tricks included writing personal checks on his own overdrawn account. This, however, would only work for a limited time before the bank demanded payment, so he moved on to opening other accounts at different banks, eventually creating new identities to sustain this charade. Over time through experimentation, he developed different ways of defrauding banks, such as printing out his own almost-perfect copies of checks such as payroll checks, depositing them, and encouraging banks to advance him cash on the basis of his account balances. Another trick he used was to print his account number on blank deposit slips and add them to the stack of real blank slips in the bank. This meant that the deposits written on those slips by bank customers entered his account rather than the accounts of the legitimate customers.
In a speech, Abagnale described an occasion when he noticed the location where airlines and car rental businesses, such as United Airlines and Hertz, would drop off their daily collections of money in a zip up bag and then deposit them into a drop box on the airport premises. Using a security guard disguise he bought at a local costume shop, he put a sign over the box saying "Out of Service, Place deposits with security guard on duty" and collected money in that manner. Later he disclosed how he could not believe this idea had actually worked, stating with some astonishment: "How can a drop box be out of service?
I thought that was pretty slick

Re: MIT Engineers
Man, I miss Limewire. You could go find one song, any song, download it and not have to deal with shit attaching itself to your browser (hell, you didn't even need a browser!) and causing all kinds of hell to break loose in your extensions folder. I use Vuze for most torrent stuff but it's hard to just find one song there.
