STINKIN MS!

Why must I add yet another stupid plug-in this time "Microsoft
Silverlight" to watch the video via Firefox? I tried IE, but its
temporary per session and need to tolerate commercials.

Screw em, I'll pass and will wait for the Youtube version.

Yeah, I passed too. How many effin plug-ins to they expect you to
load?

You do not need to add the plug in, just click real player or MP.

Olyimpics ... wow

To this day, just the smell of liver brings back a bad childhood memory

That's funny, my gag reflex only kicks in with asparagus.

Bring on the liver.

I. HATE. LIVER.

ME TOO. I physically can't tolerate the smell, let alone even get a
plate of it in front of me. Last time I was at a family function where
my Aunt made it, I literally had to leave the house for some fresh air.

It's odd about different foods.

I like bacon and occasionally grab a BLT. I cannot stand to be in the
same house or resturant when I smell it being cooked.

I get physically ill from the smell.

Mrs. Wave is an Atkins type and she has one scrambled egg and three
strips of bacon in the morning - I'm out of the house and she leaves
the windows open even in the winter to air it out before I come back.

Can't figure it out.

Wuss.... 8)

Why does NBC insist on running the marathons? ? The mens is running
tonight..........a couple of hours of.........yawn

You can choose not to watch it.

Yep, that was my choice. Saw about 15 minutes of Ping Pong.
I used to be the park fieldhouse champ. Jigsaw cut plywood paddles.
No, rubber and no spin. Slam, baby, slam.
My brother-in-law totally destroyed my pride in that later on his
basement table with rubber-clad paddles.
He put that sissy spin on the ball.
Whipped my ass every time.

Did you play in any Chicago parks?

Avalon Park. 83rd and Avalon.
That's a bit east of Stony Island Ave.
Like I said though, "fieldhouse champ."
Nothing organized.
The only other parks I used was Jackson Park, where
I went to day camp as a small kid, Russel Square for swimming
as a kid (83rd and S. Shore Drive), and later as an adult Kozcuiusko
Park on Diversey near Pulaski. Swimming, watching League softball,
and setting off fireworks on the 4th.
Played pickup softball at some other north side parks, but don't
remember the names.

Tried that, but just got a commie China promo. Great Wall, cute kids,
happiness everywhere, preceded by some hotel commercials.

Mine doesn't; I love Cantonese-style duck with asparagus.
