    Wow!! Screw trains, as a Hudson Valley native, Hudson valley is not Westchester. I hope the trains pass you by. We don't want you.

    Yeah, I suspected. Counterfeiter seem to really cheap out on the label a lot.

    I should have added a caveat, I actually agree with you and I, too, was skeptical of the fact this has been happening. However, since the FCC released an official document about it…

    IDK, I would not, personally, consider my town in any way suburban. It's European "founding" predates the American revolution and the vast majority of the construction in the town …

    I'm not familiar with Westchester specifically but, to me, suburbia isn't good for any of those things you mentioned. To me suburbia feels like a giant mass produced parking lot an…

    What was the outcome? Did you require stitches or lose the thumb? Do you have lasting nerve damage or similar?

    Uh! I was once referred by a real MD to a real (licensed) physical therapist who worked in a real physical therapy office who performed a purely quack "procedure" (craniosacral the…

    That's easy for you to say. Back when I didn't have any money my phone budget was $8 a month. Minutes 10 cents a piece, IIRC. People didn't really text very much back then but thos…

    People on prepaid or pay as you go plans don't get unlimited minutes. You can't really just dismiss this segment of the population. It's a bit like saying "coffee is a free beverag…

    Frames have been improved into iframe and then deprecated in HTML 5. Frames were a nightmare. You can't link to a page in frames, you can't bookmark it either. Frames break the bac…

    I wouldn't even think about bringing up natural selection to my young Earth creationist coworkers. Not touching that with a 10 foot pole, it would only end badly. There's a reason …

    Thanks for the link! It looks like reocities didn't pick it up. (I downloaded all 250 links and grepped myself)

    I apologize in advance as there's no non-morbid way to ask this but... what happens to the images on your server if you die tomorrow? It would be exactly the same situation, right?…

    I was in geocities/South Beach/lounge but I can't remember the number and it annoys me. I know for a fact archive.org indexed it but they didn't at all after geocities moved to ~ u…

    I don't miss flash intos though. Or frames. Good thing they were usually optional.
