I just want to say, as someone who grew up in North Dakota, went to college in Iowa, and now lives in the Seattle area, every time the guys happen to mention Hy-Vee in the podcasts I nostalgia a little bit. 

Just a tiny little bit.

Rezz this thread because: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/02/dwarf-fortress-ten-hours-with-the-most-inscrutable-video-game-of-all-time/

I'm going to repost this in the appropriate thread.

Luckily for you this is the appropriate thread for EVERYTHING and NOTHING all at the same time.

Given that I am responsible for the thread's current name, I'm well aware of that fact. :)

I forget the other names this thread went by. It started as Angry Rant thread, but then Ross' and I had a battle of wills and admin privileges.

Yeah I remember being fairly annoyed the day I made this thread(you know due to the whole flat tire fiasco). I didn't see any of Ross' names for the thead by the time I logged back in I was like:

...?

Hmmm

Ok cool.

I was systematically changing the thread name every time Ross did. I'm pretty sure one of his was "Crazy Thread About Trains."

In the end turning my random angry ramblings into the thread for randomness that doesn't 100% fit into any one catergory worked out.

So for that I applaud you.

According  to my wifes account and the large contingent of cop cars, at least 2 people were shot 1 of which died. Like 30 ft from my front door. Damn, Sacramento u scary.

No idea, this wasn't really the coporate crowd either. Lot's of unanswered questions still. I've had a range of neighbors staying extended in those places.

Not sure. How this crowd got in.

Random thing about Hunger Games 2.

My wife read the books, and is excited for the continuation of the love story.

I read the wikipedia plot synopsis and I am looking foreword to Woody wasting some people.

Successful Movie is Successful.

Still can't get my wife to watch Battle Royale though.
