Joel Up Front Posted February 26, 2015 Share #8801 Posted February 26, 2015 I have never won any sort of contest. I did win something on a field trip (a FIRE POKER at some metal smith's shop) in elementary school but when my house's fireplace was removed, the poker went with it. A decade ago, I was in the 9th grade and I wanted the 360, and Pepsi had a contest deal of sorts - under the cap of each 20 oz bottle of Pepsi you had, there was a code you could enter online for a chance to win one. For 13 straight school days, I bought a bottle of Pepsi every day - without fail - but none of the codes worked. I think that want for the 360 died down when a friend got one a year later and he complained about the RROD. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with us, are Erinn Westbrook (Glee) who's wringing my neck and Avan Jogia (Victorious & Twisted) as we shoot season of Reel Works TV which will air on NYCLife later this year. The final episode of which will feature my short documentary, This Is: Connections. Edited March 1, 2015 by LTA1992 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted March 11, 2015 Share #8805 Posted March 11, 2015 Jeremy Clarkson has been suspended by the BBC for punching a producer. Top Gear has been put on temporary hiatus while the details of the incident are determined. http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-31839677 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted March 12, 2015 Share #8806 Posted March 12, 2015 Top Gear has been getting boring since Hammond's accident, sadly. I'm not blaming it on him, but most stuff just feels scripted and they're getting old. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenSin Posted March 13, 2015 Share #8807 Posted March 13, 2015 Fun facts about the railroad standard gauge: http://www.snopes.com/history/american/gauge.asp The decision to settle on 4 feet 8.5 inches stems from the width of two horses' behinds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CenSin Posted March 13, 2015 Share #8809 Posted March 13, 2015 Those must have been some thin horses, then... Not sure how the wagons were built, but the horses might've straddled the ruts. In other words, the centers of the horses were 4 feet and 8.5 inches apart approximately. A horse can actually fit through a space a little over 2 feet wide, but I don't know how comfortably horses can pull a wagon together mere inches apart just to fit into 4 feet and 8.5 inches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B35 via Church Posted March 15, 2015 Share #8811 Posted March 15, 2015 Random thoughts: - E. Flatbush gotten worse (crime-wise) since they've started adding all this police presence.... Make that make sense. - I'm no longer requesting no tomatoes in the whopper jr's I get whenever I do go to Burger King.... They put em in there anyway, so wtf's the point; may as well not waste my time... - Having sex IN BETWEEN subway cars is..... probably not a good idea.. Happened on the I was on around 2am earlier.... Don't come begging me for 20 dollars for 2 tickets (railroad) because your wallet ended up on the tracks.... Idiots.... Smelling like the Montauk lighthouse & shit.... - Don't press all up on me with your narrow ass, and then accuse me of inappropriate touching when I'm not "responding" to your "advances"... I wanted to smack the shit out of this caked up white bitch on my LIRR train yesterday; causing a scene & shit... Tired of this oh, I'm a victim shit whenever women don't get their way, and in this day & age, it's gonna end up getting em killed... It's gonna come to a point where men aren't gonna give any fux anymore.... Just watch.. side note: an older white woman came up to me as we were both xferring at JAM for the Brooklyn train & she says, she saw what that girl was doing.... I just said "yeah" & left it alone, because in all honesty. I believe that if I would've engaged in the conversation, she would have found some way to defend her fellow white female..... Real rap, White women are experts at being passive-aggressive, and I don't care who that offends on here either.... That's all I got for now. I has cat too... damn I haven't been in this side of the site in a while Same (on both points).... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 17, 2015 Share #8812 Posted March 17, 2015 Top Gear has been getting boring since Hammond's accident, sadly. I'm not blaming it on him, but most stuff just feels scripted and they're getting old.I don't find it boring. Some of the stuff is over the top like that ambulance episode, but that's what i love about the show, the absurdity. The all car reviews have been boring. I just hope it is resolved soon before they run out of the specials they've been airing to fill in for an episode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Via Garibaldi 8 Posted April 20, 2015 Share #8825 Posted April 20, 2015 You are 100% right he thinks the buses should run is way.I don't work for a bus company so I don't know how hard is being a bus driver.But with pinepower he blames everyone but himself nice bus isn't a taxi company. He lives on Long Island and uses the buses. That's pathetic. If I lived in the boonies, I would be taking the LIRR into the work in the city and DRIVING elsewhere on the Long Island. That's what upper middle and upper class folks do on the island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
