The Goat Pen

I had hopes that Dalton was good enough to get us over the hump. My hope is fading. He's good, but I'm not sure he's the whole package to lead this team to the next level.

They have the defense, they have a running game (although Green-Ellis isn't doing as well as he should be right now), they have the star wide out and they have the tight end combination.

The only missing link is perhaps a more competent 3rd W.O. and Dalton, IMO. They should be one of the top 6 teams in the league right now.

Agreed. Dalton needs to step it up and stop relying on Green so much. He forces it there way to much.

heh...I wished that had really happened.

I'm addicted to Craigslist - at least at this point in my life, whenever I need to buy something - whether its a part , materials, a motorcycle, a car, land - you name it and just about every category of item to buy out there I've bought something from it.

Usually on a big ticket item, I'm prepared to drive up to 2 hours to get it but Craigslist is a pain in the ass because you have to search each city individually.

I got tired of that so I wrote a javascript embedded HTML page that lets you search up to 5 cities at a time. Because there is a shitload of cities out there, I've only put in the cities that me or my family might be interested in searching, however its just a matter of cutting and pasting to add new cities.

If any of you have any desire to use the script, I put it out on google drive and you can run it from there, or you can download it and run it locally from your computer.

If you want me to add cities, let me know. For you coders out there, it won't win any awards for being efficient code - I'm from the school of iteration coding which means I do a shitload of output statements and top down flow design in my coding.
In other words, I don't give a fuck if you could have written it better than me.

Is there even anybody on here who knows much about code?

I kinda threw that out there because I work at a software company and one guy I had do a code review shit all over it.

Its like chicks talking about each others outfits.

Whats weird about this is there used to be some sites that did this and Craigslist shut them down - why I don't know, which is why it was important to me to write the code in javascript so it could be run locally and within any browser.

I could've done that code much better...

Who still codes in java anyway? Fucking dinosaur.

LOL !!! No you couldn't you stupid asshole. Best post of the day however.

Hold on I've had a semester of coding the local community rec center, I'll handle this....

Damn, it's been awhile since I've seen that old chestnut...

From Talent's place:

"ACA = Designed to Fail.

WSJ had web companies look at the code for the exchanges and its for crap. Whose brother in law or former staffer got the contracts for that?"

They should've hired eCat...

eCat, congratulations on reinventing the wheel. CraigsList search engines that do multiple cities (that you can pick and choose) have been around for years.

I know - and Craigslist has been actively shutting them down

For you digit heads. Tech hurdles of the exchange websites.

The shit didn't work in the test environment...not sure why anyone would be surprised it's not working in production?

I still haven't been able to log on. When I went to the "live" chat, it was clearly a canned message (although they did offer up a name to make me think I was conversing with an actual human) which was repeated twice with slightly different wording ("heavy traffic", "please be patient", "try again at 3 a.m.", etc) and then abruptly ended when I asked another question...

it isnt only the inability to enroll that should worry everyone--I hear they can only handle 25,000 on line at any given time.

But can you even fathom anyone filing whether it be a doctor or a patient --trying to input data for an appintment and payment is going to take months if not longer to fix those glitches. and it starts for real in january I think if they can actua,ly get some people enrolled thats when they can file claims
