    Possible to drive from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe right now?

    If the road is open, bring chains and you should be fine. It just started raining here a couple hours ago, so I'm sure there will be plenty of snow in the mountains tonight.

    Buying a new bicycle: can I bargain?

    If you want to bargain, buy all your accessories there, like helmet, shoes, jersey, lock, etc. They can usually work with you on the higher margin stuff to make a larger sale.

    Ugh, better be careful about store bought ground beef as well as McDonalds...

    I could 'safely' piss in a cup right now and drink it, but that doesn't mean it's not disgusting.

    Damn. Oddly enough, I was just at the local butcher/market tonight and was surprised at how red their ground beef was. Now it makes total sense. D:

    Damn dog

    Great post. Dogs truly do remind us of the simplest aspects of why life is great.

    Well, ****.

    At least you didn't leave it long enough to get funky so you had to wash it again too.

    If film is better than DLP, then why is film so bad in theaters?

    I think the differences are more likely due to DLP projectors being newer with newer lenses, more modern lighting technology, etc. Film projectors have been around forever, and theaters had less incentive to update them. If you put two projectors with identical optics and lighting, one with film...

    Dog Food - What's a good brand for a very active adult dog?

    Evo or Orijen are ideal because of their ingredients/meat content and kcal/g ratio, but anything grain free is fine. If you feed them with a higher quality food, you don't have to feed as much and there's less poop to clean up.

    Anyone have hernia surgery?

    I had it in high school. The pain is fairly bad, but it is easily manageable. I found the best combination to be vicodin + ibuprofren, it almost completely erased the pain. I was off my feet for a few days and laughing hurt for a week or so, but it's not as bad as he's thinking.
