Oh, he's invoiced me already. I was in the arrears before he sent out the invoice. Interest is accruing as we speak. Compounded by the minute.

Sorry - I was off making some money at a local blind draw dart tournament.  Gotsta eat ya know!


how does that work? Do you have to point them in the direction of the dart board or do their seeing eye dogs throw?


It works poorly, which is why I'm always playing the blind for money.  They're getting tired of me telling that blind skydiver joke though...

Not really.  Rest, chores.  Maybe a movie.  I haven't been much for planning things lately--if I can help it.

weekends without plans are the best - love 'em. I can recommend The Woman in Black if you're renting a movie.

I'll give The Woman In Black some thought.  I have a backlog of videos to wade through before I think about new stuff.  I just caught up on the first two Men In Black films in case I decide to see the new one.  I also watched the original Alien so I'll be up to speed when Prometheus comes out next week.  


The last film I saw in the theater was call Headhunters.  It a Norwegian thriller that already has rumors of a Hollywood remake a la Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.  I liked it a lot.  It had a few twists that that were well set-up without the clues being obvious at all.

Forum Super Thread, often written rarely read.
Forum Super Thread, 68 pages and still not dead.
Forum Super Thread, retirement home of the easily led.
Forum Super Thread, I'm looking forward to seeing how many pages it will keep going for.


hmm, not sure about that last line, I can't put my finger on why though.

Do aliens disguised as humans chuckle when someone says, "the sky's the limit"?

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

OK, I can't resist this (though I probably should):

A TRUE story regarding a legally blind guy and throwing darts...

I have a cousin who had just purchased a dart board, and set it up in his living room (ok a shorter distance than normal).  He challenged me (the very legally blind guy) to a game of darts.  OK, so I will get creamed, trying to hit that black very blurry barely visible round thing on the wall, but hey, why not?

The only hope I had to not make a total fool of myself was to make a couple test throws, and try to memorize muscle movement. 

After the third game, he had yet to beat me.  In the fourth game, he finally was beating me, and ragging on me something fierce (like wow, on your fourth try, you are finally beating the blind guy).  On my final turn, I somehow threw three triple bullseyes (never done it before, will likely never do it again), so he lost again.  Though this happened several years ago, even after all these years, I remind him of it every once and awhile.
 
Note: I should add that I've never tried to play darts since.  There is no way I could possibly get a better outcome than what happened on that day.
 
Oh, and for the record, regarding the previous posts on the subject: I am NOT at all politically correct about my sight issue, and in no way shape or form took any offense... I've sometimes thought about becoming a baseball umpire, so that when I yell, "Strike three," and the batter replies, "What's the matter ump, are you blind," I would respond, "Sounded like a strike to me, you're ejected from the game."  It would be really fun to walk up behind home plate using my white cane, and take the umpire's position.

Old55, I have to confess it was fun, and obviously still brings a smile to my face (from the other side, there is also perhaps a bit of a lesson regarding humility).

Hey Daryl, 

The main CH page show that you posted something here, but I sure can't find it.  FYI.  

[Edit]

Weird.  I guess there was a delay displaying page 69!  Whoo-hoo!
