GM's thread about nothing (52 Viewers)

The immediate post after this one won't make any sense whatsoever. Whatever the hell it was I thought I was posting here initially was dumb. But what's not dumb is what's followed. It's a collective work, with contributions from some of this boards best and brightest. In here, you'll find wedding updates from me, adventures in the life of St. Louis Bob, a romantic epic from Homer Simpson, a recap of Bonzai's trip to Germany to watch their squad play in the World Cup, Cosjobs' masterpiece and snaptastic, witty replies by the best online miscreants I know...Bob Sacamano, Bob in Saint Louis, Tanner Boyle, Truck, Shuke, Stryker, Tecumseh, Nigel Tufnel, Tiger Fan, Pickles, Krista, YSR, Fatguy, Boston Fred, Ferris, Frosty, Stu, Thorn, Gadzooks, Cosjobs, TRE, Frosty, wadegarrett, Bogart, Ricky in Arabia, Facock, Bobby Layne, Guster, Homer, Early, Desert Rose, Bently, Rude, Dharm, Mr. Pack, Pigskin P(HI!), Rover, Drifter, Kev, Charv, Jeep, Hack and if I missed anyone, please let me know.

This thread is safeguarded by Rudnicki. He's got our back, and we've got his. Chip into the beer fund for Rude to keep this thread alive.

:nerd: question here that I asked in another thread but got ignored...hopefully one of you guys know the answer:

Assumption

[*]If I have an external hard drive connected via USB to my router with all of my music/pictures stored there

[*]Have itunes on each computer in the house directed to the media folder on the hard drive

Questions

1. Will I be able to direct my itunes app on each computer to the directory on the hard drive - i know i won't be able to play them at multiple times

2. Can I access this music through my Xbox 360 which is networked directly through the router?
My god....I am so far down the tarmac on technology it's pathetic. I don't even know what this means. What are you attempting to do? How many computers do you own at home??? Jeezam.
 
# RickDickens77: First of all it's called Hanukkah.

# RickDickens77: And it's like eight days or nights or something.

# LouisTheCat: so its like three weeks god thats awesome

cat is stealing my math shtick

 
LouisTheCat: i want one of those little hats our people wearRickDickens77: Lou, you are not Jewish, you can't just say you're Jewish, and I am not going to make that happen for you. So stop it.LouisTheCat: rick i didnt want to play this card but i think you probably are aware that our people are extremely powerful and can make things difficult for youRickDickens77: Ok, let's suppose for a second you could become Jewish. What if I told you I'd only give you one gift anyway?LouisTheCat: well isnt that like a goy

Not the reponse I was hoping for :kicksrock: 3 computers at home (plus anticipating future tablet purchase(s). Basically I want the hard drive to act like a server so I can access all my files on there from any computer.

I got lost at "external hard drive". The rest just made me want to drink, though I'd feel the same if I had never seen TF's post.

1. yes.

2. You used to need to run a local client on your windows box to allow streaming to your xb360, but it's been several years since I did this. Not sure if they still require this or not.

Thx. Follow up question: How to I actually set it up so the computers will able to read from the hard drive? I've never actually set up a network where all computers can "talk" to each other before. But I assume this is easy, no? Here's what I'm working with:Current Status

[*]Have my modem and router in media closet

[*]Router (Linksys E3000, 811.n) has a USB input

[*]Xbox and Laptop 1 (Windows 7)are hard wired directly to the router

[*]Up to 4 other computers (Windows XP, imac and Windows Vista) and various mobile devices (Android) are wirelessly connected

[*]Have all media (pictures, movies, music) on an external hard drive

 
whats the model of the hard drive? Some threads to read:http://linksys.lithium.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/USB-Hard-Drive-for-E3000-Router/td-p/338460http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/GetArticle.aspx?docid=0868d4e24a6a468280c3cf270c1d6a31_21517.xml&pid=1&converted=0
Thx. Will take a look at those. Not sure of the model off hand, but will check it out when I get home
 
Our company's Employee Activity Committee is having "Trivia Night" tomorrow night and I've been asked to be the MC again. I was told I did a great job last time, but came very close to saying some inappropriate things. I told the person in charge of this event that I am making no promises about being appropriate this time since they're having the event at a country club that is 2 minutes from my house (walking distance for someone with the motivation to walk, I obviously won't be walking) and that a few people have already told me they will be buying my drinks for me because of some giant bar tab that I paid for everyone at some other event that I was over-served at. It's been a crappy week, so I already have an excuse to get drunk. And the fact that I am currently hornier than a house-cat is probably going to lead me into making bad decisions tomorrow.

Anyways, anyone have any new one-liners, insults, zingers, jokes or just some good shtick that I can borrow?

Be inappropriate using only GMTAN inside jokes.GZ: Sorry that answer is incorrect. You must be totally shuked.GZ: Ten bonus points to the woman in the red skirt. I bet she's got a real Cristo going on under there.GZ: Sorry, that was the correct answer to the second question from round 1. This is round three. Please stop Hippling trivia night.GZ: CAPS LOCK IS HOW I FEEL ON THE INSIDE, RICK.GZ: Now for our Wheelhouse round: To the nearest hundred, how many "Z's" appear in the King James Version of the Bible.GZ: Better slow up on the alcohol intake there, Mrs. B. Don't want to end up camping with Steve, if you know what I mean.GZ: I'd totally like to HomerJ your daughter, sir.GZ: Sorry, ma'am. I'm saving myself for Mrs Cat Shirt Bob.
 
A student recognized my name from a piece of fiction I wrote. She read it over a year ago. Her favorite line (which she still remembered): "Run the soap bar between your balls and ass and feel guilty that your roommate uses the same bar on his face."

Welcome to literary fame, DP. :thumbup:

The song "Old Time of Rock and Roll"....time for it to die, right?
:goodposting:No idea why that song was used in Risky Business. Just terrible.
Now it's on a commercial with some getting-jiggy-wit-it mom pushing a mop around a hardwood floor (easy Zooks, that's not a euphamism or code for anything boner worthy). CNBC plays it constantly and our going-deaf CFO blares the volume on this channel.

The 2 most overplayed/overused songs in tv/movies/commercials:"Bad to the Bone" George Thorogood"I Feel Good" James Brown"Old Time Rock and Roll" is working its way up the charts.

No...no you don't. Do you like CNBC? Do you like it LOUD! Do you like commercials about Diabetes with Wilfor Brimley, advertisements for Life-Alert and special offers for Rare Collector Plates with faces of Presidents on them played on repeated loops every commercial break? There's no flipping here, pal. It ain't Six Flags.
 
Why do I try to be nice to my ex? Sucker for punishment? Not once have I called him about something and thought, gee, I'm glad I called, that was productive.

As I'm unpacking, I come to a set of good dishes his mom got as a wedding gift and passed on to us. I call ex to ask if he'd like to have them or if I should keep them for one of our sons. He says I should give them to him. Perfect. Should I pack them securely for storage? Yes. Then he starts...where are the collector cards and the 50c pieces we got 15 years ago on holidays and his hockey gear and he expects it all Sunday when he drops off the kids and what about his life insurance (that he was always against and hasn't paid the premiums on ever :yawn: ), that had better all be ready for Sunday as well. And the firepit and.. and.. and... He's had 6 months to get things from the old house. I just moved them here why?

I'm working, running a household and unpacking for the family first, guy. You don't even play hockey #######.
Some of them want to use you. Some of them want to get used by you. Some of them want to abuse you. Some of them want to be abused.
Sweet dreams are made of divorce.

I thought of a simple, awesome improvement on an existing product that may produce Chet like money. Now what?

I'm being serious here!!!111! :hot: :hot:
So am I. Read it. Trust me.
The last time I trusted a guy I ended up dressed like Little Bo Peep.
How many times are you going to bring that up? I apologized...sheesh, you're worse than my wife.
 
Dp: funny line. It was funnier when I saw it on Friends 10 years ago.

Old time r'n'r is horrible. Anyone ever hear this played at wedding receptions? Excruciating.
