you all do know that these freaks, usually gain it all back?

Scarlett Johanson isn't very attractive.
He's not saying she weighed 140 pounds. He's saying she was 140 pounds overweight. She was 5'4" 260 pounds. That IS morbidly obese.
Now she is 5'4" 105 pounds. Which is arguably slightly underweight. But not dangerously so.

It is healthier being the amount overweight than the amount underweight she is. I used to work for a company where I predicted who would die in the next year and being underweight was a parameter that predicted such things. Unless you are morbidly obese it doesn't predict anything for the short-term. When you are that skinny you don't have any back-up in case you get sick.
Yes I was referring to the weight she was at for the beginning of the show and compared that to her reveal weight.

Md. bills to ban bulk purchases of concert, sports tickets

Actually it is a bill to ban use of certain software (according to the referenced story). It does not (again according to the story) ban the actual bulk purchase of tickets. It would be all but impossible to prevent someone bound and determined on buying any given number of tickets to an event from doing so.

If you are saying good as in it is good they are not banning buying whatever you want, I agree. If someone wanted to go to a promoter and make a deal to buy every damn ticket to every show of a tour for a band he ought to be able to.
i wonder who ratbastard hates more . . . obama or utwo? and i wonder were the name, ratbastard, comes from.
Zimmerman/DMX fight called off.
im glad it got cancelled. it was a horrible tacky testament that nobody cares about violence and the effects of it, and only wants to view the spectactle of people killing each other, or the chance of said two people killing each other. we are, indeed, the hunger games. or even better, the running man, which was such a great movie. see, there i go, supporting violence because of such a great movie.

I take the commuter train to work. A train comes every 30 minutes. As I walk to the train platform, I always see grown middle aged men sitting in their cars blasting the heat waiting for the train's arrival time. They're pussies and they need to dress warmer. But I get it. If my 19 year old car had heat, I might do the same thing.
What I don't get is why a couple of them absolutely blast their car radio (always morning talk radio) to the point that you can be walking 20 feet away from the person's car and hear the radio loud and clear through the closed windows. Does the heater make such a loud sound in car that this must be done?

This is something you'd have to have heat in order to know.

Maybe they are getting pumped up for the day. You take a train to the subway? And you have a 19 year old car? Ouch. I bought a new car last night. It wasn't the Audi I wanted but I sacrificed for the kid and got a smaller BMW. My payment went down and I have better gas mileage. You might have influenced me a bit. I hope the kid when he poops out appreciates me downgrading.
Maybe we should have a auto thread. I love cars. We are dudes so we all love cars right?

I drive to the subway in the morning and blast the heat on the way. I listen to NPR. When I get back in the car I'm always shocked at how loud the radio is. So yeah, I guess that the heater is loud. NPR doesn't have as much grating background noise/music, and their voices are generally more soothing so prob not as bad as if you were listening to elliot in the morning or something like that. Those radio shows grate on my nerves like crazy…it's like having the disney channell on…all this horrible canned music and laughter…
I have to say the heater on my new car is pretty quiet. I like the heated steering wheel. My old car did have heated seats but not the heated steering wheel. I like how all the new cars have satellite radio so I can listen to new music in the car. Both our new cars have that keyless entry and push button start. I don't really see much purpose in it. I guess you don't have to take your keys out of your pocket if that is too much trouble for you.
Both our cars have panoramic moonroofs. I never saw much point to moonroofs/sunroofs before but I guess these are nicer since basically the whole roof is a moon roof.

I don't take the subway (Metro). I take the VRE. Much nicer and devoid of all of the riffraff who ride Metro.
i've driven the 19 year old car for 14 of its years. I would never buy a car where you have to make payments. I've always paid cash for any car I've ever owned.
I actually drive that car less that five mile round trip every day. I don't see a reason to replace it. If I want to actually go somewhere, I use our other car, which I paid cash for.

I don't think anyone driving around in a 19 year old car should be giving out life advice. Anyone can pay cash of an old junker I don't think that will impress anyone. Actually I wouldn't drive around a child in a 19 year old car I don't think it would be safe. Lot of safety improvement to cars in the last 19 years. I don't think you are being very responsible. You might want to report yourself to child protective services.
I don't buy my cars to impress people, I buy them to have means of getting from Point A to Point B.
The last car I paid cash for was a 2006 RAV4, purchased in 2008. Hardly a "junker". And I drive my daughter home from her after school care less than a mile each day, hitting one light and topping out at about 25 mph in a suburban neighborhood. I think we'll be fine, but thanks for your concern.
