I've got a constant drip all the time that irritates my throat.  No matter what medication I take.

What have you taken king?   Among my many talents I was a pharmacist at one point  ;D

Selling prescription meds out the back of a truck in an alley doesn't make you a pharmacist. :zydar:

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

Hayfever is just one of many ailments that the king will forget about once I get prescribing  :hat

Cool!  I shared on Twitter and Facebook.

I assume you are the guitarist?
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Correct. I restrain myself quite a lot in this band but I get to let loose and shred on a few of our songs (we released an EP which is linked in my sig, hint hint)

Good morning folks.


I was just totally brown nosing the my city's Chief of Police :lol

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

She is actually really nice. Her son's vehicle is parked in a spot, off of my property which I can still see... and she asked if I could call her if I see her son's car getting towed. lol

Just finished watching it myself. It was ok. A lot happened and changed, and they've kind of cleared the slate in recent episodes, and it will be interesting to see what they'll do with that next season, but I didn't find this season finale as good as last season's.

Neat. I'd love to get into film making, but it requires money, and leaving the house, and people.

Not really what I'd consider a cliffhanger. A bunch of characters got killed, so nothing was really left hanging. :lol

I understand a lot of general stuff because it also applies to 3D graphics, but I've never had a chance to try out a high end camera or properly shoot anything.
True dynamic range is good, otherwise your images turn out looking like Jay's. :neverusethis:

Pretty sure she's dead. They've got her corpse. They can make sure. :lol

Was the group outside of Nick's house related to the group that wanted to recruit Trouble last time? Wasn't sure if it was the same woman. Don't really care at this point, since they didn't do anything yet.
They set up a clean start for next season, but didn't really leave anything hanging that I'm waiting to see resolved like last season. At least they gave one line to acknowledge that the kid had grown 5 years.

I don't know, the end of this season kind of tapered off for me.

You always look so happy in your photos!
iPhones take really good automatic photos, but I hate the complete lack of photographic control they have. Last I looked into it, even apps didn't have access to the low level functions.

Yes that is the group.  While I agree the killed off the biggest bad guy, I doubt they go to the kill the monster of the week again.

Of course not. But we'll have to wait until next season to see who steps in.

They do have an option so you can choose to focus on the foreground or background.

I've been testing that quite recently.

I use that feature whenever I take photos (I have an old iPhone 4S I was given). It's a nice way of handling automatic exposure and focus for the average user, but it's not a pro solution by any stretch. But that sums up Apple in general. :P

Apple doesn't typically base their decisions on flexibility and power, especially when it comes to hardware and operating systems. Which makes them kryptonite to a power user like me. :blob:

How much RAM you got? Unless you've got a lot of tabs open, that shouldn't be too RAM hungry.
I've got 16gb in my machine, which is usually fine, unless I'm doing really heavy graphics work, then it still cries. :lol
