Who has multiple pics in their sig and uses dial-up :plain 563546[/snapback] Not one in the same. The dial up user is slowed by the people with multiple pics. There is also no reason to be sucking up that much bandwidth for no real reason. Use too much bandwidth, lose the site for a while.

Bad Week 1. 561829[/snapback] Thats the same way you started out last year..... followed by a bad week 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9.....

A southern Baptist minister was completing a temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river." With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river." And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river." Sermon complete, he sat down. The song leader stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, nearly laughing, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn #365, "Shall We Gather at the River."

So far, this is not an overly active year, it falls under 'average' as far as the number of storms thus far (10.) You just notice them more this year since Florida has had to keep an eye on a number of them in a row. By the time the season is over (at the end of November,) there will probably be 12 - 15 named storms (just slightly above normal.) The NHC updated outlook (NHC Updated Outlook) says there is a 45% chance of a 'near normal' season, and 45% chance of an 'above normal' season.

My sincere thanks to KJC for getting this started this year! And my apologies to everyone else that plays the game, I have been rather pre-occupied as of late. hey there, gator! i didnt notice the picks thread until today, but if its not too late, here are my picks for the remaining games: Buffalo Chicago Baltimore Houston Seattle N.Y. Jets, Pittsburgh St. Louis Tampa Bay Minnesota Philadelphia Atlanta Denver Green Bay 9-5 Week 1 leniency

Bob or Robert, a name which has been in every generation of my father's family for quite some time. I have cousins named Robert, and a couple of female cousins scattered around the country, going by the name Roberta.

Snickers

could a mod delete this. Specualtion is confusing to those who don't realize what it is and miss the real info thread. 534617[/snapback] Those would be the same people that only know how to look at a line, ignoring the strike probability cone and the hurricane warnings issued for their area.

NASCAR driver Rusty Wallace will retire after the 2005 season, saying he is concerned about getting hurt and wants to leave at the top of his game. Rusty has had a wonderful career, and is certainly one of the reasons the sport has become so popular. But I hardly think you could say he is leaving "at the top of his game." I do hate to see another driver I have watched for so long retire, but with all the younger drivers making their way up through the ranks, they do have to move some of the veteran guys out of the way to make room.

The only time I ever liked drinking Gatorade was when we mixed it with vodka :thumbup

Alcoholic beverage of choice is a rum and coke. Non-alcoholic would be either green tea or water (I don't care about the lack of flavor, I'm only drinking it because it is refreshing when ice cold.)

(and to Marlins as well)

Two factory workers were talking. "I think I'll take some time off from work." said the man. "How do you think you'll do that?" said the blonde. He proceeded to show her...by climbing up to the rafters, and hanging upside down. The boss walked in, saw the worker hanging from the ceiling, and asked him what on earth he was doing? "I'm a light bulb" answered the guy. "I think you need some time off," said the boss. So, the man jumped down and walked out of the factory. The blonde began walking out too. The boss asked her where did she think she was going? "Home," The blonde answered, "I can't work in the dark. "

...there is no credible intelligence about a specific threat against such hospitals... And as I recall, that is the same line that was found in alerts that had terrorists targeting malls/shopping centers, apartment complexes, etc. You just remain observant, note anything 'unusual,' and go about your everyday duties.

On the base is a stamp in the plastic that reads "9011" Plane between two similar looking towers? Just an innocent mistake...... not.

Retiring a name actually means that it cannot be reused for at least 10 years, 529401[/snapback] That hardly seems worth the effort, storm names only cycle every 7 years anyway. I do believe retired storms are plain and simply retired.

WHAT?! You mean you run something other than just these forums? What's the name of the site? Wait, don't tell me, let me guess. Admindoesmiami.com ? j/k

I'd be happy if a Gator ate my dog. :mischief 528931[/snapback] Nah, don't like dogs. They're too stringy.

Have a great one!!
