http://blogs.nfl.com/2011/01/02/wild-card-and-divisional-playoff-schedule/?module=breaking_news Game time schedule. Colts will be on NBC at 8:20 on Saturday. New Orleans will be on NBC at 4:30 on Saturday Baltimore is 1pm on CBS Sunday Packers play at 4:30 on CBS. Looks like my freelance jobs will be none this year unless the ravens/chiefs (most likely Ravens) can beat the Patriots...Any given Sunday and everything else in my hopeful picks pans out. -

AFC playoff seedings, official. 1. Patriots 2. Steelers 3. Colts 4. Chiefs 5. Ravens 6. Jets Jets (6) will travel to the Colts (3) Ravens (5) will go to the Chiefs (4) Patriots(1) will play the lowest remaining seed in the divisional weekend Steelers(2) will play the highest remaining seed in divisional weekend. How I see it going down. Colts (3) will beat the Jets (6) Ravens (5) will take care of hte Chiefs (4) Which would bring the following games Colts (3) at Steelers (2) Ravens (5) at Patriots (1) what I would like to happen Colts(3) will beat the Steelers (2) Ravens (5) will hopefully beat the Patriots (1) Bring a Ravens (5) at Colts (3) at Lucas Oil stadium But if hte Patriots beat the Ravens, as long as the Colts go on to beat the Patriots (they only lost by a field goal while Patriots have been destroying other teams) and win their second SB ring. And then as long as the Patriots don't win anymore and the Colts win one or two more, my Colts will be a team to reckon with, even with second stringers and free agents on the field. I will post NFC seedings and later times and channels later. NFC seedings as of nwo. 1. Falcons 2. Bears 3. Eagles 4. St. Louis (holy crap)/or Seahawks 5. Saints 6. Green Bay New Orleans(5) at St. Louis/Seattle (4) Eagles will host the Packers (6) Falcons will play the lowest remaining seed Bears will play the highest remaining seed. -

I wouldn't want to play anyone if you can't beat the Tampa Bay Bucs......Something interesting to me, Drew Brees has thrown 22 interceptions this year. Tonight, I will have the playoff seedings and pairing ups. So far, the only knowns. AFC 1. New England Patriots 2. Pittsburgh Steelers. 3. Chiefs/Colts 4. Chiefs/Colts/Jags 5. Ravens 6. Jets I don't know if any other seedings have been solidified. -
Top one would be hard Rock Park. Then in no particular order. Wild West World Vertigo coaster (overseas) Son of Beast Pilgrims Plunge (lack of theming on it really, great water park ride, but not wet/dry park ride and the location is really bad for the water park people). SFNO (location, Six flag buying it and not letting it die) partly flying turns (only because it has taken time to get it open, but I do give Knoebels credit for trying something that others are not) Coaster clips......enough said.

While I have never ridden BBW, I have ridden Top Gun/Flight Deck at Kings Island. While during the day it is just an average coaster, I rode it during Halloween activities at night and I loved it. I don't know if the layout is close to BBW or not, but if it was just as good or better the TG/FD, I wish I would have rode it.

Not riding SoB is a happy day......Beast was running good this year though. -
SFNO/Jazzland Discussion Thread

Came across this FB page the other day..... http://www.facebook.com/pages/Abandoned-Six-Flags-Project-Renew/178552918836594 the fact that someone thinks that a "world class theme park" could be built there and make it makes me laugh. Maybe they will buy the dipper if/when the current sale fails. -

One thing I learned with my three trips down there. The big tourism area is the French Quarter and then after that is the lower 9th. After that, unless you know someone down there or have a personal attachment like I do, you don't really stray far from the Quarter or your car in the lower ninth in the daytime and def. not at night anywhere other then the French quarter. The block I worked on in the 8th ward back in Nov. 2009 still have only two homes occupied back in August of this year. The rest were either still gutted (one home wasn't gutted) or tore down. You have to have the population that wants a park (and they don't have the population to support it now or ever and they are a lot of poor people down there financially {but they are rich in other areas, but that is a whole story by itself}). -
I was able to watch half of it before I got bored of it. To me, Jeremy Clarkson is Top Gear.

Holiday World (HW) Discussion Thread

I believe as Paula talked about it when they were there. -
Once I get my Jeep built up (lift, bigger tires, bumpers, maybe lock.ers) I plan on going wheeling there.

Indianapolis Indiana Beach, an hour (straight up 74 to 26) Kings Island, two hours (74 to 71) Holiday World, two hours (don't really know, but either 70 to 41, to 64 or 65 to 64) Six Flags St. Louis, 4 1/2 hours (70 to 44) And less then 6 hours from there...Cedar Point, Beach Bend, SFGAM, plus many others probably within eight hours? Indianapolis has a minor league baseball team, a great football team, they have a basketball team (don't know if they are good anymore since I don't follow them), Indianapolis Motor Speedway (Nascrap, Indy racing league, and motorcycles), plenty of concerts, art and culture places, and the 2012 Superbowl (assuming there is a season). Depending on where you will work, housing is cheaper on the out skirts of town and easily accesible via 465, 70, 65, 69, 74, 36, or other highways.

This day started out okay but went to crap... 8:59pm Est.: Mom calls says my Grandma isn't home and isn't answering her cell phone. 9:05pm Est: Mom calls said Grandma is at the Hospital and my Grandpa is in ICU. He had been in the rehab floor for a couple weeks and was doing better. 9:29 Est: I send out an email to some mission trip friends and post a message asking for prayers for him. 9:39 Est: My dad calls and said he had died........ I have had family members die before, but none as close as my grandpa..........I haven't even cried for many things in recent history, but have a few times tonight. I can only think of the good times and memories we have had. I am trying to block out the last time I seen him because he wasn't that great off then, but he was doing better then before.

This is going to be my last post on this thread. Kat posted a message on another coaster forum. At least she is trying to do some all coaster fans have always wanted to do, if she fails or succeeds, you will never know unless you try. -

This is 100% for sure, and don't take things for what it looks like. There is a lot that isn't out yet about the whole project. As for the website, I admit it lacks a bunch. Hopefully that will change at some point. I don't even know a lot, but I know more then what was posted on that site (I told the person that I wouldn't say what isn't out there already). -

Has the Big Dipper been saved? http://www.savethebigdipper.org/ \ -
I have never flown, but if I pack like I do for road trips, I would go broke with baggage fees (a suitcase or two, a camera bag, a small camera bag, a laptop back pack if I don't have to take towels and bedding{when I went to New Orleans with church, we had to take towels to shower with and sheets, pillows and blankets for sleeping}, I am not a light packer). I like to drive because I can stop at places along the way if they interest me. I was almost going to fly to LAs Vegas a few years ago courtesy of my uncle, but I didn't have food money so I couldn't go.

Enjoy college marching band man! BEST TIME of your LIFE! Sadly though, Nothing beats the Auburn University Marching Band Wall of Sound® Any band with a TPR member beats all of them. Wildstangalex is in there somewhere, he plays a trumpet.

Actually, it was the first Santa statue built here in town, Adam, back in 1935. And not sure where "fluffy bunnies" came from ... we're adding 500+ fluffy, fluffy bunnies filled with medicine and goo. Thanks, Paula I had a hard time hearing the audio on the video, fixed in my post. -
Computer illiterate people that think they know things
spaceace12 replied to Oreos's topic in Random, Random, Random
Pulled a computer prank on a co worker today. While he was on his break, I put a piece of masking tape over the laser part of his mouse. It still looked normal, but the cursor wouldn't move if he tried. I fessed up to it and he said he restarted the computer twice and unplugged the mouse before he seen the piece of tape.
