I took off work today and went to the doctor. I've been having trouble with my ears. The Etruscan tubes or whatever. I've always had problems. I drive over the mountains and my ears are jacked up for a week.

Anyway I go in and I've got sinustis or whatever. No biggy.

Nurse comes in to give me shots...one of antibiotics, the other of some sort of steroid. One in each hip/cheek. I'm a trooper. Don't even flinch.

So I ask her "I should go pump some iron now?" I got no reaction from her.

She gathers her stuff and starts to leave. I ask her if I that's that.

She says "No the doctor needs to see you before you go. I'll tell him Barry Bonds is in room 5."

She get a look at your junk or something?

No, but she saw me go yard about 30 times during BP.

What the #### do you wear when you go paintballing in 80 degree weather?

They don't give you coveralls?

No idea... How much do these things hurt? I was debating shirt, shorts.

Dude...they hurt. Not like kick in the balls hurt but they hurt. Welts and ####.

You have to remember that 80 degree weather for me is chilly. But jeans and a long sleeved shirt at minimum.

You have to find a balance between "I'm sweating like Woz trying to read" and "I want some sort of fabric armor".

 
New next door neighbor works at a Miller brewery. He gets cases of free beer every month. He doesn't drink.

Jackpot.

Paintballs don't hurt that bad, Nancy

They hurt enough to make a guy second guess what he is wearing.

But then again I was on the front lines. I charged the front lines. I did not hesitate to take a paint blob for my brothers.

Of course if you are one of those guys who sits behind a hay bale 100 yards away...more power to you.

 
don't wear sweat pants. jeans or some sort of cargo pants/coveralls. the idea is to have something baggy or semi stiff, that absorbs some of the impact. #### hurts yo! i took one to the temple once, from about 10 feet away, in some sort of stupid nam like tunnels the place built. it looked like i had a golf ball implanted in my temple. good times

That sounds awful... The good news for me is that people I'm going with all have the same experience. There will be 14-16 of us, so we have our own field and there won't be any professional paintball nerds killing for us.

Also, at least half, prob 3/4 will be drinking during the day. I'm driving so I won't be. Positive, I won't be delayed by alcohol, negative I won't have alcohol to absorb being shot.

I posted this in the running thread, but figured most of us degenerates wouldn't see it in a thread like that:

Thought this would be a good weekend to post this. 100% of the proceeds from this really cool Boston Strong poster goes to the Martin W. Richards Charitable Foundation. Martin was the 8 year old little boy that was killed by the terrorists 2 years ago in Boston. His parents set up the Foundation to support peace through education and athletic initiatives. The poster features my friend Julie who was a ballet dancer and who will be running her second Boston marathon this year.

I played paintball once. Our group was using the rental equipment which barely shot them hard enough to burst. Some nerd and his little brother had on like full gore-tex suits and automatic weapons wanted to play with us

I ended up taking 2 shots in rapid succession on each of my inner thighs. It stung like hell

Not long after I heard a radio story about a guy losing a nut after getting hit with a paintball

TL;dr wear a cup for paintball

 
Spent the morning telling my 7-year old, whose birthday is today, that now that she's 7 I could take her to the baby store and trade her in for a brand new baby. I don't know why she'd believe me. I'd never do that because babies are the worst.

Remember how I was going to ride a bike 150 miles over two days and sleep in a tent with my coworkers at the midpoint and some of you guys gave me money for it?

Praise be to Thor, the first half the ride got cancelled due to weather. So now I'm just riding 70 miles on Sunday and I get to sleep in my own bed all weekend.

I'm going out tonight and getting pissed to celebrate. I bet all those suckers that actually trained for this are hella mad.

How does jumping around the board allow someone to find a daily double more quickly?
Click to expand...
Something like 90-95% of the Daily Doubles are in the bottom three rows. If you choose dollar values the traditional way (200-400-600-800-1000) you're basically just hoping you'll stumble on a DD when you get to the 600, 800 or 1000 questions.

 
I haven't read all the books on it yet, but 41 is widely acknowledged as the ideal age to be expecting your first kid, right?
