    Good point. I imagine they are really working to keep the music at the same level the entire time too. I have done lots of singing but mostly backup or just a few songs in a set. So, yeah, I am not too tired after that.

    "Triple Crown" was not a large enough indicator? Maybe it is just me but I kind of enjoy being well rounded in my education. Then again, perhaps, it is because I used to drink my lunch at an Off-Track Betting (OTB) facility that was literally just across the parking lot from our rented building.

    Didn't you say you were done with /. not that long ago in another thread? I, unfortunately, do not bookmark all the people who claim to be leaving so it may not have been you. For all the people claiming to be leaving there seem to be just as many posts. We could debate the quality of the subsequent posts but that is not pertinent to this line of conversation. Can I have your UID?

    We do not have the good looks either.

    Anyhow, I think that all horses that are in the three races should be required to race in all three races. If you pull out and do not race in one of the races you should not be allowed to enter any of the others that follow. Similarly, you should not be allowed to enter a new horse in the middle or last race.

    I kind of miss drinking my lunch at the OTB with the bar and grill. It was an excellent place to take clients. During the day the dining areas were quiet and we could discuss business. After that we could drink even more and bet on the ponies. I like chariot racing (sulkies) and even got to bet on the miniature horses pulling sulkies at one point. It was like watching midgets wrestle only nothing like it.

    Dude, man, what?

    DRM? DRM is a pretty loose term. CHMOD is DRM if you want to be pedantic, so isn't your password! Digital Rights Management.

    I love, for instance, Leadbelly... That does not mean I am 100 years old. You love Leadbelly too. You just do not know it yet. Everybody who is anybody does a Leadbelly cover, or John Lee Hooker, or Bob Dylan I suppose. But the point is I am not 100 and Leadbelly is awesome.

    I am old but I gamed for many years - back when it was mandatory to have a shovel full of quarters even. Drunk Pac-Man anyone?

    Anyhow, I enjoy watching people play more than I enjoy playing. I do not watch competitions or anything but I enjoy watching folks play RPGs or even a few of the FPS games out there. I do not actually play any games now. I have not for 10 years or so.

    Playing a drum kit for two 1.5 hour sets and then a 45 minute set closer is definitely work. I do not know if it should be called a sport (though you can compete - see rudimentary drumming for instance or a drum corps, drum line, etc) but it sure as hell is work.

    I tend to get volunteered for fixing random people's home computers that they *still* know nothing about. Google is a long ways away but, still... Go type something in!!! *sighs* I still fix them. I get bored easily. I usually include a printed out piece of paper that goes a long ways towards helping those who will help themselves. I also cheat and image the drives after repair (where applicable and with their knowledge).
