my victory of the week is no more work til jan 25

Going to Bali. place in South East Asia. Much shenanigans with friends is on the cards

Sweet....

Have a safe trip… eat plenty of Balut.

Wow

I can fit in Luggage and pay the 100 Bucks for the fee :)

good god no

eat too much local food and you get Bali belly. A condition that glues you to the toilet

Well at least eat some Dragon Fruit, and Dorian.

Dorian has the most god awful smell but is supposed to be absolutely delicious.

The whole idea of balut is disgusting… even just the 7 day fermented eggs. bleh

yep putrid smell, amazing taste

I haven’t been in ages so I can’t remember the exact smell but i’m sure it will come back to me.

I only know about the fruit because of my plant classes.

Dragon Fruit is pretty tasty… I’ve never gotten my hands on raw Dorian.

A friend of mine brought some balut back from the Philippines for another friend of mine… I fell out of my seat laughing when i saw it.

that trip will be.. Baller
Ok we will send the search party on 26 Jan!
With any luck it will work out like The Hangover

Absolute hilarity trying to put the pieces together

And a monkey, tiger and freakin mike tyson
As long as he doesn't knock me out cold. I'll let the alcohol do that
My Victory

I’m still living. I learned that I can walk 3 miles to school with a full pack and in sub-freezing temps.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got a job in this economy

Still in college and have been trying to get a job for months now and nothing popped up. Now i got something to pay for this hell hole lol

VOTW

Heading back to St. Louis in a couple days to finish up my last semester of college. When I finish my last final May 9th, it will be the happiest moment in my entire life. I never have to live in St. Louis ever again.

I've been subbing this week, and...

find that I kinda like teaching. So maybe working at a University will be a good thing for me… teaching and research are my 2 big things that I enjoy it appears.

With that said, I applied for a job monitoring air pollution in the city. This is a job that would help make a difference in Kentucky. It would be great experience applying research to a practical level in government. One that might be able to lead me into a Research Univeristy Faculty position one day. Plus it pays much more than substitute teaching.

Kentucky has a City?

who’d have known

They keep on telling me that these places are cities.

I think Louisville has about 500,000 people… There is about 1 degree of separation between friends. Questions you hear here at first meeting is what school did you go to(and they are referring to High School not College)?

Lexington thinks that it is the biggest city in the state (possibly most states), but its a small town. Frankfort is probably the next biggest town… this is where vultures go to eat on their prey.

Oh and there is Covington… which is weird place. Its like hickville butted up next to Cincinatti, but on the KY side of the river (much could be said of where I live). The coolest thing about Covington is that it was settled by German immigrants, and sausage is there prized possess there, GOETTA.

just an FYI Joplins extreme home makeover is on…

Arrowhead on the show. hunt talking

The show gives me a little bit of a sick feeling.

Despite the good they did.

A RAISE after 3 years

and 7 months of Retro Pay!

Retro pay is the sweetest pay there is

Unexpected and in large amounts. Congratulations.

Awesome

I can make my wife Happy and me too

Sadly still can't go to BALI
Dude

Who likes old money?

Seriously folks, congrats!

Hell ya... keep fighting the good fight!
Congrats Steve...

Now you can throw down on the AP cornhole home version for the community.

The Bulls have doubled the Celtics score.

In the most boring NBA game ever.

my victory was that I was able to cope with the Tebow lovers at work here in Denver

I’m glad this crap will be over in a day so I can enjoy the rest of my 3 day weekend

Should be a Fun Game thread
I do believe the Broncos will get murdered in that game...

It is an unfavorable match up for the Donks. Also, according to last weeks announcers, Von Miller can run fast in a cast?

Patriots – Agazillion
Broncos – 2

and how do you think Den will get the safety?
a slow moving Von Miller?
It should...........

I am glad I don’t have to work during the game

can't wait :)
i can't believe all the hype on every channel for tebow

unbeleiveable

VOTW

4 day weekend- week 2 done of school. Crime scene photography is quite interesting. Plus the Nikon cameras are REALLY fun to play with! Oh and RAC city became offical!

Mas, The CSI....................look out folks!!! Enjoy the weekend brother.
I'm havin to much fun with the flash! Paparazi -esque

Enjoy the 4 day brother Masons!!

Since you've have this training...............

go snoop around at Arrowhead!

Not certified yet!

I know how to turn the camera on and zoom… Week 2 of like 15… But by draft time I should be on the same level of Sherlock Holmes… Or Ace Ventura… Tomatoes Toma’toes

take a picture of the draft board
hopefully it will be a crime scene, with all the steal Pioli will get
Pioli found guilty of Larcey of Beef!!!!
Jamaal Charles Dues and Dudettes

no recs for this?

well Dues and Dudes too

rec that masons Man

Sweet...

I’m looking at upgrading my camera to a Canon 7d. Right now I’m using an xSli. Its been great so far, but I wanna up my game.

I've never had a camera this nice...

Too bad it’s not mine .. Uncle Sam just loaned it to me

You can't go wrong with Nikkon or Canon

The current one I have is about 6 or so years old, and I bought it used. It is nice, but I think it only takes 12 or 15 megapixels… the shutter speed is slow… the viewfinder shows about 90 percent of the shot, etc.

It takes great pictures but I wanna see what I can do with a better camera. I’ve already upgraded lenses. I wish that Arrowhead would have let me take it in to the game last year.

Oh I learned ALL about shutter speed and the F stop the last 3 days...

Overwheling at first but really cool after I got the hang of it

F stop is extremely important for what you are doing...

Zeroing in what is white is important to as is iso… But you should learn those things soon enough. Once you learn these things you can manipulate them under other circumstances and get creative photographs.

good soup
So you are a fan of cooter soup?
just turn em over in a fire and you can scoop em out right from the shell!

Absolutely terrible

Make sure you remove the cat

Its a good thing I don't drink....

Week has had 5 Mondays in it…

ending on Friday the 13th…

GOOD TIMES

Not superstitious,

I had to play hookey today, a few too many wheaties last night
VOTW, 2 days of totally sweet negotiating training. Time to step up my hustle

On top of that me and my boy ArrowDread are holding it down at funk night

Ha Make Their Day

Dom Capers is on the list of victims who may be the next Raiders head coach.

We can only hope.

He's too good a man to get involved in that mess of a franchise
I just had my one year anniversary here on AP....The Thormans were nice enough to buy me a new car........

………….what did you guys get for your one year anniversary?

Congrats Masons

This is usually reserved for special circumstances, but since you brought it up

AP presents you with:

I want to thank my....hey ; ) lol
I did too
did you get a car too
no yacht
I looked up Chiefs Yacht

This was the best I could find…

Ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and I would think about changing that number

lol..very funny me lady
Not to mention the Larry Johnson jersey

But it looks like they had a good time.

I got an empty beer can

And an addresses to some church for some type of meeting…

I suppose a victory of the week for us id the Chiefs announcing Romeo as HC

at least we aren’t still in wait and see mode.

Now if we can only move forward on those coordinator/position coach hires, we can dive head first into this draft.

Can't get enough of this guy. Caption this $hit

WTF is that black crap in his ear. Is it a huge friggin blackhead
Why I actually do sun tan in hell, funny you should ask

Satan is exceptional at applying facial cream…

anybody remember watching this?

I like the one where she can't keep up with the conveyor belt

I always hated Dezi..........Carol Burnett was more my speed
tim conway
yep....loved it when they use to crack each other up! classic comedy
i also liked the mamas family skits
Does anyone else think the Pepsi commercials are hilarious

They had the Rex Ryan and the jets locker room commercial but they had to abandon that when they failed to make the playoffs, now they run the backup commercial of “the pre game pep talk”. Good thing they had a backup plan. I wonder if the whole Pepsi commercial contributed to the jets implosion and meltdown. Maybe holmes was upset that Sanchez got the speaking part in the commercial . Either way I always laugh when I see that shit.

jets didn't make the playoffs because they're overrated

crappy QB
decent defense
horrible ST

that’s not a SB bound team

That's not what Rex Ryan said

LOL

he is just a ....happy toe lickin ...kind a guy
rex ryan has issues

his brother rob? ryan looks like kenny rogers

But what about his feet?
do you think they played footsies as kids
that's a good guess
by footsies do you mean putting bacon in eat other mouth with their feet?
in-breed toe lickers
I think those kind of sicko, like toe jam
Yayee!

more friggin’ work. Gonna be a late night tonight. Uuuuugh!

Why not script that stuff?
Can't script them all sadly

It’s a three day cut-over weekend :( I have to merge a production network with a new acquisition network. One public IP space, one set of firewalls, two LAN’s, two default routes. If that’s not enough to make your eyes roll back in your head, the two LAN’s have to communicate internally while each mantaines its own default route. VRF/BGP/Redistribute connected. Hopefully FTW.

Yikes

Too much that’s too much lol

That is full of win
ah, man....i thought my prostate check would win.....maybe next time!
I just love how they stopped to take a picture...
lol.......looks like they're taking a lunch break.....helmet on the post and his leg strtched out
Warner Bros cartoons taught us as children

that nothing over rules a lunch break.

i think this pretty much sums up pioli and haley work relationship
damn dude

don’t jinx me

hahaha
btw this is from an awesome attorney game
ok that's funny don't worry that there's imminent danger time for a photo op

Classic

anybody doing something fun tonight?
if scratching my junk and commenting on AP is fun, then yea I'm having "a ball"
I didn't get hire and I feel like bar hopping anybody want to split the tab?
That sucks bro, tip it back.
I just bought some win

i’ve drank 1/10 of the bottle so far.

life sucks

chin up Brother
don't worry I'll finish the other 9/10 of this bottle

don’t you worry about it

Cheer up

life is full of good things:

Sometimes those things bounce.

am I ever going to get a chance at them?
sure if they don't knock you out first ; )
go to the bar after you finish that bottle and they will all look like that...
hell yea
that is by far the best GIF I've seen on AP....we have a winner folks
one problem. Not sure my GF is into the whole having sex with random stranger thing
I'm cheered up!!!
It helped me too...

Sidenote:
Waiting to find out if a gif is an image is a tedious task sometimes… Occasionally your mind tells you they moved a little so you just keep staring only to have start a new search after you realize you are an idiot.

VOTW…Got a great new promotion/job and a fat raise. Celebratin tonight with a bottle of whiskey.

enjoy, congrats
go for the jack

George Dickel is where it’s at. If you only know Jack than you don’t know Dickel.

err.. “then”

Jack+lemon=good time
is kyle orton with u
Right on Comp

Awesome stuff, well deserved brother.

Salud!

My VOTW

Just literally finished “War Room”. Got it for Christmas. I’m a slow reader….

Great book. Shows the human side of Pioli. I like him much more after the book.

Also makes me want Haley as WR coach…kinda sympathetic for him after reading.

Losing Haley may just bite us all in the ass someday...

Sometimes I just feel like we chopped the wrong guy in the end. We shall see, I think Haley will end up on top somewhere, but the Chiefs can still move forward.

I think Haley might have been against a lot of the boneheaded Chiefs moves from the past few years and Haley and Pioli went round and round getting know where fast.

Hopefully Pioli’s methods prove right in the long run and it starts with these upcoming hires.

We can be his "tackling fuel"
i got this book for christmas. Good read

anybody watching the thuggets?
whats the spread on the donkey pats game
VOTW is I leave for Cabo in 3 days

Counting down the minutes till rum and cokes from sunrise to …..sunrise

VOTW is hating Bajah for going to Cabo in 3 days
JK,

have a good time brother… well deserved man. Find us an OC while you’re down there.

thanks man

i’ll try, is Daboll down there? I’ll send a few drinks his way and get some info out of him.

ya tell him to go work for the Raiders...
do u think marty might get the bucs job
I think if Marty was going to take that job

It would be his already. He is the best candidate for them…

I hope so.

If the Bucs get Marty and Haley they may become my new #2 team.

They seem to have a forumla for what Haley was trying to build here

If that was in fact Haley’s plan and not Pioli’s…

It would be interesting, but really how long would they wait to offer him a contract while still doing all these interviews.

If they wanted Marty, it would’ve been announced IMO. Hopefully I am wrong, because he deserves another job.

marty wants the job, i think he would be a great fit for the bucs

he will make the bucs a consistant playoff contender and division champs

Plus it would be interesting to see Haley with Freeman, since the Chiefs passed on him for Matt Cassel and Tyson Jackson.

Ah, what could have been.

freeman is the black alex smith
that bottle is kicking in...eh?
and cassel is the white alex smith

you shut up

anybody think the chiefs will hire rob ryan?
no
why not? we need a new DC dvbd ngh mjt,yku
I just don't see it or want it...

I want the Chiefs to make a strong hire on defense, but I fear they will not.

They need some help, this comfort level over three games makes me sick. This team was humiliated often this year…sometimes in Arrowhead. Yet, a lot of fans are comfortable with stauts quo after two AFC West games and beating the Packers in a low scoring thriller where they thought the Chiefs were awful.

The lack of alarm concerns me. Romeo calling the plays is fine, but the Chiefs need a Mike Nolan, Jack Del Rio type of defensive perspective to put some force into the game planning for next season.

screw it timee fro saabin
somebody is feeling better...

close one eye, it helps.

whght swhjhiut uewop
errrr, no
circa Joel's Terrelle Pryor post...
Ha! I threw that out there way back when

I now doubt they will

According to Football Outsiders.

If the Broncos win tomorrow, it will be the third largest upset in the last 20 years. Our 1995 loss to the Colts when You-Know-Who missed those field goals is one of the upsets bigger than that. The other one was the Giants over the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

jesis is that yu
I hate you for bringing that up...

but good stuff.

There is no way the Broncos win that game. It will not happen. They lose.

tebowmania rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrwnevlcvdfLDAaacdrvgfrbgftryjyuky
Watching that thing on nfl network

Carr interception sealed the game, pay that man.
Orton was rallying the troops on the sidelines

Going to watch "30 minutes or less" again tonight when I get home

Funny freakin movie.
