Have you seen Metro Detroit? I just ask because Ann-Arbor is cool and all, but I would rather raise a family where I live right now. Plus there's a bunch of great hospitals in the suburbs of Detroit. If you haven't seen what Metro Detroit has to offer you have to allow me to give you a tour at some point.

I have only been to Detroit once, and that was years ago. I definitely need to check it out, I hear the city is really trying to remake itself. Ann Arbor is like a dream come true though, I never imagined I'd like a city so much. 😍 I'm a small-town guy at heart... lived in a town of less than 500 people for 18 years. :laugh:

Ewww I can hear it raining. What's happening to the 73 and sunny that was today!?

It was miserable here today too... I want the nice spring weather back.
 
Cedar Falls is going to be insane tomorrow if UNI beats MSU... lots of Iowans wearing their purple this week!

I think tonight's the night I figure out why I can't see animated avatars.
 
have you tried going to tools > internet options > advanced tab, scrolling down to multimedia and making sure "Play animations in webpages" is checked?
 
Sigg is made from aluminum and has a liner. There was some controversy before because the liner might have contained BPA.

oakland, besides my one cup of coffee a day, I basically only drink water so I think it's worth it if I'm going to use it everyday.

Understandable. It's worth it then. I was just thinking you could save money by purchasing a not-so-fashionable water bottle. But I'm none to talk because I'm purchasing an 8 cylinder porsche turbo when I become a doctor, no matter how much it will set me back.
 
Even though I picked Baylor, I want St Marys and UNI to win tomorrow.

I would also like for Purdue to beat Duke and Tennessee to beat OSU.

In summary, I would like all of the lower ranked teams to win tomorrow. :laugh:
 
Go Spartans!

+1, especially since Oakland is out of it. I try not to be fairweather and usually cheer against UMich, but since the recent destruction of the reputation of the state of Michigan I've decided to cheer for anything that makes my state look better.

The typical Michigan houses:

That's going to set you back quite a bit.

I'd rather start out with a 40-45k Boxster (if you're talking Porsche).
My dream car might be a Mercedes SL, but I haven't decided yet.
 
My dream car is a old restored one. like Elanor. Porsche has always been a little fantasy of mine.

I think I'll start out with a Volvo S80 or a Volkswagen. I just want something reliable that I can drive to work. I'll work my way up to a porsche for my first sports car. A used Carrerra GT is 300k. If I specialize and pull some fraud here and there I'll be able to get that by the time I'm 45. After getting the Carerra GT I'll for sure be able to snag any trophy wife.
 
Grigori Perelman, Reclusive Russian Math Genius, Refuses $1 Million Prize


After performing some teaching in American universities in 2003, Perelman has apparently given up on mathematics, dismayed at the intellectual and moral failings of his peers. Instead, according to reports, he likes to play table tennis against a wall in his apartment. "You are disturbing me. I am picking mushrooms," he told a journalist who managed to get in touch with him.

That's crazy. He sounds pretty aloof.

Eleanor? Nicholas Cage doesn't belong in that movie IMO.
 
I'm sticking with my 04 Civic until it dies. Hopefully that won't be until after residency, but that might be pushing it.

All I know is that my next car will be either a convertible or a coupe, something that I can say I had while I was still young and before I had kids. Maybe a used Corvette or something.

I had a mitsubishi eclipse and it was amazing. Such an awesome drive. I couldn't keep it though cause it was taking a dump in the winter. I had to get towed 3 times last winter. I loved the turbo a ton and needed a car that had a turbo that could handle the snow. I fell in love w/ my volvo when I test drove it. My baby 😍😍😍

Edit: She's a beast too, so I have a feeling she will for sure get through med-school and hopefully residency as well.

HOLY **** THAT WAS IT. This entire time, since I joined in May 09, that's all I had to do. The smileys make so much more sense now. Corny ACTUALLY eats popcorn!? The barfy ACTUALLY barfs!? Boom ACTUALLY blows up!? WTF has a WTF sign!?

Omg, this is kind of freaking me out now. SDN is like a whole new world to me. I actually feel overwhelmed by all of these moving thingies on my screen. :scared: <--this actually shakes back and forth!?

Thank you blobby bob!!! I owe you, fo seriously. I'll even stop making fun of your blobbiness if you (really) want me to. Do blobfish like cookies? I'll bake you cookies. I'll even throw in a smoothie of your choice.

We can probably lease decent cars during residency too. Worse come to worse that is.

OMG I need to find Sammich's and jla's avatar now...

That's probably a really good idea if my car dies earlier than expected and I'm not quite ready to buy a new one until I get out of residency.

I'll have to keep that in mind.
 
:clap: for Floaty!!!

Now you can just use animated smilies for no other reason than to see them move around!

The animated avatars move!

I seriously did not know smileys were animated. Wasn't anyone the least bit curious why I was confused about the barfy one!? To me, it just looked bloated. And the lovey one has hearts! It just looked like another smiley face to me.

It's like 199 a month for a Jetta. There's some pretty decent deals. And then you can buy the car when the lease is over for a decent price.

lol, what about this one :ninja:
 
Sammich I can see your ducky dance! Myuu has an animated avatar too!? jla, your tiger is adorable!

AHHH MOTHALAND!!!
 
I seriously feel like I've realized the answer to some philosophical question like "what is the purpose of life?"
 
Where the hell is blobby bob? He needs to witness this.

what kind of volvo? i also love volvo. i was sooo close to getting one before i ordered a pimped out taco.

i hate vw's.

i vote bob king.
 
Haha.

I just confirmed it, I'm getting a porsche as soon as possible. If my parents decide to pay for med-school, I'm taking out loans to buy a porsche.

s60R. There's no other Volvo a 19 year old guy would fall in love with.

Oh good. The annoyed one still looks the same. That one was my favorite. And the barfy one is kind of disturbing.
 
Once the NBA and NHL finish their seasons, sports absolutely sucks until late August when college football starts.

Except when there's the World Cup (like this summer) or Olympics.

Well, there's still summer recruiting during that period of time.

lol, so for the whole time you just turned animations off? :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Can you see me laughing?

No, I really don't care about anything sports-related during the summer.

Especially baseball. I can't stand baseball. They play too many games - you don't need 182 games to figure out who's good and
who sucks. The only good thing about baseball is that they start and finish in the same calendar year, which is convenient for championship chronology.

Oh yea...summer is filled with baseball talk, and it annoys the crap out of me.

Yesssss! I never mess with those options so it didn't make sense for me to check. :smack: <--hehe

You're going to have to come to the cooler coast for those cookies though. I ain't paying shipping for perishable goods. We'll have a bananagram party! And we can go to Costco!

Oh wow, I must say I really like baseball. I don't watch every game or anything, but it's by far the best sports date. The game is so chill, so you can always talk to your girl. The only bad thing is rain delays or extra innings cause then you're stuck with her cause you paid for the tix and you wanna see the game, but if it's a bad date and you want it to end you are sort've screwed. Usually though I've had good experiences and good feedback from baseball dates. And the tix aren't too expensive either.

Yes...

Don't you have a stick to go find and play with?
 
That's the one thing that seems good about baseball - the chill atmosphere of the live experience. Most sporting events are so tense and nervous from the sheer excitement.

That reminds me, I need to make it to some of LSU's home games - we are the defending national champs trying to repeat this year and we have the best stadium in the country plus the best attendance in the country.

D.J. LeMahieu went to middle school with me. Just wanna put it out there.
 
i think all the sports people at my school... went pro in something other than sports
