[Giovi]

Yo, Fiddy, nice tats man

I'm dumber for having watched that.

 

[Cullksinikers]

I got a 4-day pass to Lolla, and holy shit am I pumped to see Foo Fighters on Sunday. Anyone every seen Rock and Grohl live? Hoping they mix in one Nirvana song too just because.

Might be interested, how are you doing the draft... I have not used DK for anything other than daily fantasy.

Okay i will let you know shortly.

Its on ESPN, just using the rules that DK uses for fantasy, like PPR, 100+ yard receiving and rushing bonus, 300+ passing yard bonus, etc.

If you reach 11 and need one more to even it up at 12, shoot me a PM with details, I'll put together a roster and play.

Would it be more economial shipping a hockey stick internationally via one of the big commercial carriers, or paying for bringing it onboard a commercial airliner (whether as checked or carry-on luggage)?

Probably depends where you’re sending it. But most likely checking/carrying it on will be cheaper.

I can't imagine an airliner allowing a hockey stick as carry-on, in bag or not.

If they do though, take a tennis ball and when that seat belt light turns off, dangle the flight attendants, snipe and celly.

Checked luggage. I can't imagine they'd let you carry on.

This is how you end up duct taped to a seat.

 

[Pez68]

The easiest way to get an answer is to call the airline you're flying with and ask.

Worth it if there's a LNAH scout in the seats.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

I had an application I couldn’t get to work for work on Chrome and switched the FF. Maybe it was just the breath of fresh air, not sure, but it seemed to be much easier and more enjoyable to use. For work, at least.

I switch back and forth. I use Chrome as my main browser.
I use Firefox for all From Center Ice stuff.

Though, I'm really not on my computer a lot other than hockey stuff. But I use HF on Chrome lol

Anyone use a solid state external hard drive?

I've been wanting one, but reviews can be so mixed. Any you'd recommend?

Or also any non solid state, too, I guess. I have a couple WD's

Any of the Samsung Evos are a good buy. I think I have 4-5 between different devices. Externals are the same drive in a case, basically.

Checked luggage. I can't imagine they'd let you carry on.

Last year, transitting through Europe, I saw a passenger with a really long case (I thought it was a musical instrument, but far too narrow and too tall to be a cello) waiting at baggage claim. So he must have carried it on somehow. My game-used hockey stick seems shorter than what he was carrying. Maybe he bought a ticket for his piece?

The WD portable USB drives all have soldered hard disks to the circuit-board internally, instead of the industry-standard IDE/SATA connector. If the circuit board ever goes bad (like one of my 4TB WD Passport), the drive is pretty much unrecoverable, or would be hugely expensive to do so, because it'd require getting a board from the same batch.

I wouldn't mind getting ducktaped in First Class with a whole row to myself, like that woman on AA.
