Not a urine story, but a close call with numero dos.  So I'll give a poop warning for those who might not want to read ahead - sorry in advance if this gets a little gross

-------------------

About 6 weeks ago I was participating in a 24 hour film race with some friends of mine from work.  Now, often when I'm out of my element for extended periods of time, I don't...well...crap.  So, I'd been awake for 25 or 30 hours without emptying the old bowels so to speak (it had probably been almost 40 hours since last relieving said bowels if you include the previous night's sleep...

...and I had to take my girlfriend to the airport around 9:30 a.m.  After dropping her off, I was supposed to drop her car off at our repair shop that is just down the street then get my car from my place and drive straight back to the editing suites.

The guy there offered me a ride home, but I passed since we live about a block away.  Well...while I was walking home I realized it was more like 5 blocks away...

Now I suppose that whole not pooping when I'm not in familiar surroundings thing was suddenly not in effect anymore, because around 3 blocks from my home...well, the feeling came over me.  By one block away, I was forcably flexing my ass to keep from ruining my day.   Running only made it much worse.

By the time I got to my building, I was seriously convinced that I wouldn't make it - and I was sweating badly.

I'll end by saying that I literally made it by mere seconds - and the object I gave birth to was a healthy 18 inches minimumm in length.  I doubt it will ever be equalled, by me at least...

Sorry again

I don't have tips for digging post holes, but I did help build a deck for two days once trying to make some extra cash for a Rome trip I was about to go on.

It was actually easier (in terms of technical difficulties) than I thought it would be...but it was a lot of hard work.

It came out nicely though.  

Good luck.

Might as well close the whole site down now... I'm sure 80% of the members here will follow Durge right back over to the scum...  

I'm in love with the shot in the trailer of the entire army surrounding Li as they walk with him, swords and staffs pointed, to what I assume is the capital of whatever city he's going for his revenge on...

When's the U.S. release going to happen???

My friend's got it on DVD from the foreign release... I want to see this movie soooooo bad but decided to just wait for it in theaters here.

I keep watching the trailer over and over.

It looks amazing.

Thank Quentin Tarentino for pushing for a U.S. release.

Rebelscum is a ghost town nowadays...

but you all already knew that...

Well, I moved to Dallas about a year ago, so I haven't been to any games recently and couldn't tell you exact numbers without doing some googling...but it's safe to say that it's much lower than the 21,000 person capacity of the Ice Palace.  The ownership was saying earlier in the year that the team would probably have to make it to at least the finals just to be profitable for the season.

The hope is that this playoff run and championship will boost next year's attendance, they undoubtably made new fans this year - winning it all will do that...  The area needs to grow into a love of hockey...I myself have only been interested for 3 or 4 years now.  

We (Tampa) went through the same kinda thing with the Bucs, they were terrible for so long and you couldn't give tickets away...now the waiting list for season tickets has tens of thousands of names on it.

Here's to hoping there's hockey next year and that they can continue to expand their fan base.
