Trying to make myself get ready for work... on the plus side half day today because of a golf tournament after lunch!

Having a beer and playing Kerbal Space Program

I've been seeing portal everywhere recently... i may have to hook my Xbox back up and play portal tonight.

Weird. It's not had a new DLC or anything, right?

It hasn't, but its popped up on a tv show recently (maybe Big Bang, but dont remember for sure), but then I have seen it other places too.

I wish I could take advantage of this... don't have enough rep. since i've only been here a couple of weeks.

I think the idea is that every single life is precious. If your message reaches one single person, what is the value of that? If life is priceless, that's a lot of value.

If it reaches one, minus how many it turns away. Just like we said in the other thread about Portal, ads can have negative consequences. You have to weigh the good and the bad, not ignore the bad and only look at the positive portions.

Please don't take what I say as my personal endorsement of what they are doing. I am a born-again Christian, and abhor street-preachers. I get what they're doing, but I disagree with their premise. Like an obnoxious sign, how many are being turned away? I believe effective communication comes through relationships, not people waving and yelling. I would love nothing more than to see everyone I care about experience what I have, but I can't forcefully convince anyone of anything. That's just not how it works. Also, everyone has their own choices to make and lives to live. I think I have more to offer by respecting that than I do waving it around and shoving it down others' throats.

Well said. That is my whole point, shoving it down someone's throat is the wrong way.

I am religious, and these bill boards bug the hell out of me. They are threatening and accomplish absolutely no purpose.

I am a Christian. I can definitely imagine they bug folks who are athiests or non-Christians as well. But for me, they are reminders of what my purpose is on this earth. (Aside from exorcising computers).

That's great it's reminding you of your purpose, but should that be done by threatening (real or perceived) the people you are trying to reach.

I just said "sorry, wrong number and hung up". LOL

This thread made me curious, I called the number on their website (which loaded since I'm in the US) and a live person answered.

Trying to think of an excuse to leave a bit early...

I would go refurb. You may look at dfs-r and replicate files back to HQ for backup.

Whoops!

Eating lunch and getting my golf clubs re-gripped.
