I think its some kind of unwritten law, if you hit a miata, to just leave. Its happened to me 4 times now.

My father-in-law is dying. Bowel cancer, which he almost beat, but after fighting for 8+ years, it has finally gotten the upper hand. They've given him less than 6 weeks, max.

Damn man, sorry to hear. I was about to post an "oh poor me" my rear main seal is leaking post, but damn.

I've been waiting for that call myself off and on for the last few years. Both of my wife's parents have had various battles with Cancer over the last few years, but have managed to pull through although the frequency has increased and the latest news was that it had spread to the hip bone. MIL was a Hiroshima survivor, FIL was a Nagasaki survivor and they're still kicking around though, and both approaching 80 so they've survived quite a bit.

I hope the best for you and your family.

Also, my rear main seal is leaking.

So it's the position of your school board that women who have experienced the trauma of sexual assault should be prohibited from accessing information concerning treatment, victim-advocacy, and other related resources.

Are the book-burnings in your town typically held monthly, or just once per semester?

My town is pretty blue...


Thats why i said it was actually kind of shocking.

I can get on facebook though. Which seems like it should be blocked before some of the keywords.

My work filters out the keyword tobacco. I could almost see that argument for a school, but a large corporation?

Yeah i can.

It just hits on keywords, it's a pretty simple system.

I was trying to look up some type of fitting for work a year back or so but the name of the fitting was being filtered. It made it really difficult to order the part. I forgot what exactly it was. lol

Protip: learn about free web-based proxies. This will allow you to bypass all content-filtering imposed by your ISP.

Our IT guy is smarter than that. In fact, the kids are smart enough these days to use them.

They're all blocked.

The guy is pretty good.

I sent my doctor a link to an article about Pfizer trying to sell Lipitor over the counter. His hospital's web filter blocked it, so I tried sending a note about it with the link removed and "OTC Lipitor" in the text. That was blocked, so I sent it with "OTC L-word" instead of Lipitor and it went through.

Apparently, his bosses don't want him discussing drugs with his patients via e-mail.

I was thinking more about an ACA violation for egregious stupidity.

Got drunk at new sports bar last night. Lost my keys, and I mean toolbox keys, work keys, mailbox key, etc etc. FML. But they had $5 22oz Lagunitas, which is nice.
