I used to be like that. Then I got a shot of Demerol in the foot. I have no issue with needles these days.

The one at WEM? I haven't been there, but I've heard it is very expensive.

WEM has a shooting range? When did this happen?

Since 2003 it seems.

Doubtful. I used to know a few of the range officers there, I vaguely recall that if you don't follow their rules, they have the option of kicking you out.

i was thinking bad until the part with Brad Pitt in the closet and Clooney finds him (trying not to spoil anything). that scene was so epic i choked on the food i was eating and had to rewind it just to make sure i saw what i thought i saw. that and all the John Malcovich scenes were gold

I watched Righteous Kill today and for a movie with both DeNiro and Pacino it could have been a lot better. I pretty much figured out the ending a quarter of the way through it.

metallicat · 03-01-2009, 03:33 PM

That was a terrible movie. Nothing can compare to HEAT when it comes to Pacino v Deniro.

Ok, this car alarm has been going every 25 seconds or so, since last night. Just brutal.

Can't you call the police, have them find and contact the owner to shut it off? Maybe the guy died pushing to hard on the toilet, you would be doing a great service.

Speaking of which, that would be a pretty screwed up way to die. I mean, you die in a gun fight, you gotta have some idea that it might happen. If you jump out of a plane, there is always the risk of the chute not opening. You get into your car totally wasted, there will always be that thing in the back of your mind that says " Dude, you might not make it through this alive."

On the other hand, you just finished your morning Cherrios, quickly walk into the bathroom, maybe a bit worried that you might have stained you underwear with that batch of Chili the night before. Subconsciously you might also be wondering if today is the day your hemorrhoids rear their ugly head, or if you should have bought the super comfortable 3-ply toilet paper but honestly that is about as bad as it gets. You sit down, start pushing and BLAM, blood vessel pops in your brain. Game Over.

Just seems like you should have some warning, know what I mean?

I don't know if you can pop a vessel in your brain (unless you know of this happening to someone, I won't argue if you do). But I know someone several years ago who popped a vein in his eye from pushing too hard.

Just east of Section 208. Just down the corridor. (I think east, anyway. The dome is circular, so sometimes I lose my directional bearings inside.

) Anyhoo, $9 will buy you a mountain of nachos with anything on them that you can imagine - guacamole, chili, sour cream, jalapenos, cheese, and salsa! They will pile it all right on top, or put the dips on the side or any combination of piling and sides. Fabulous!

Eating muskox gives you the runs.

Why do clothes that you buy online and never see the inside of a retail store, have security tags sewn into them?

I've decided not to cut off the security tags and as a result I frequently set off alarms when both walking into and out of stores. I'm a little surprised at how rarely anyone actually checks out what's going on when the alarm goes off. I must have set off more then a dozen alarms today at the mall but only one store actually said anything to me.

It's weird how in Edmonton when you buy pretty much anything with your credit card, they ask to see ID. It almost never happens in Ottawa, and if it does, it's because my signature has worn off. But I can't buy a bag of chips and a drink with my credit card in Edmonton without having to show my driver's license.

I didn't ask for the real stuff, as I suffer from an addiction to the molten brew served at the dome, but I would suspect that you can, indeed, get actual cheese.

It's not just in Edmonton. Everywhere else aside from Ottawa appears to be that way... it's kind of odd. The US... same thing. Calgary, Same thing. GTA, Occasionally. Ottawa, never.

Large nachos with cheese and salsa in the cups, and guacamole, sour cream and refried beans on top. Apparently if you ask nicely, you can get chile too.

Edit: What Pyro said. God I should have gone to bed by now.

Ya...the nachos grande have been the secret food of the Dome for years...they had them in the 'Alternatives' stand that was at the front doors where the new hot dog stand is now.
