New Official ATOT Nef Thread III

[MotF Bane]

Probably will take the whole week. This place is hilarious.

 

[MotF Bane]

I'm not working Wednesdays, but I'll still have to come here for a class at 10AM. Eight hours lost off my paycheck there.

 

[MotF Bane]

The garden battle thread is intriguing.

 

[MotF Bane]

Harvesting his stuff might be a little too aggressive. Talking to him is very unlikely to work. Active physical destruction (i.e. mowing) is also too aggressive.

So weed killer in the night should do wonders. Planting a few dozen tiger lilies will be a fun option.

 

[MotF Bane]

We put a little group of tiger lilies, maybe three plants, at my house. Within the next three years, they filled the entire 4' x 7' space they were started in, plus the overflow was transplanted to start lining the old garden out back, down one side of the retaining wall, to the other side of the secondary driveway, and out to the back fence. They're still growing, without any assistance. Rain and sun are enough.

 

[MotF Bane]

If we totally stopped doing a damn thing about them, or actively aided them with fertilizer and some water, they could take over the whole place.

 

[MotF Bane]

Ever seen a rose of sharon ... tree?

 

[MotF Bane]

They're supposed to reach about 8-12'. Uh, yeah, great theory. The one behind my bedroom window is pushing 16'.

 

[MotF Bane]

It started as an almost dead stick when it came home 15-20 years ago.

 

[MotF Bane]

I have a tree I got on Arbor Day in fourth grade. It appears to be a Colorado blue spruce, although I have my doubts. It got planted under the bird feeder, and to great benefit - it stands as high as the chain link fence behind it, 6'.

[MotF Bane]

It may be too late to move it easily, but it should be moved now, before the squirrels can use it to get to the feeder, and before it tangles itself into the fence.

Computers now can do pretty much everything you want as fast as you can instruct them to do so. There's not much left.

Exactly. I upgraded every 3 years or so in order to play the latest games, but even that isn't necessary these days. My 3 year-old PC can play everything right now. Yes, I would see an increase in performance with i7 in BF:BC2, but it isn't worth spending money for that upgrade IMO. Maybe when the next consoles are released, the games trickling down to the PC will need the additional power.

 

[MotF Bane]

Nefresh.

 

[sdifox]

It's official, Winnipeg is getting a NHL franchise.

 

[sdifox]

Thrashers is relocating to the great white north.

 

[sdifox]

The more Canadian teams the better. That should force the Toronto Maple Leafs to actually care about hockey.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Thrashers is relocating to the great white north.

Are they going to rename them back to the Jets?

 

[MotF Bane]

Phone's data is down again. I don't want to reboot.

 

[MotF Bane]

Are they going to rename them back to the Jets?

Will they acquire a loud-mouthed lardass for a coach?

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Of course, I guess the Phoenix Coyotes are in trouble too and may be a relocation candidate. They were the original Winnipeg Jets IIRC.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Will they acquire a loud-mouthed lardass for a coach?

HA!

 

[sdifox]

Are they going to rename them back to the Jets?

Still up in the air. Unlikely is what I am thinking.

 

[MotF Bane]

Fox, you narfed in the NHL thread.

 

[sdifox]

Phone's data is down again. I don't want to reboot.

how do you do the 3 finger salute on a phone?
