Ooo, that's an even MORE Louisiana thing.
People eat crayfish up here...occasionally, but it seems really silly. Up here, they just don't grow all that big. I prefer to get more calories from the food I'm eating than the amount of calories I burn eating the food.
I saw a funny video about a guy ringing a bell at a football game. It's not exactly safe for this site, even though there isn't anything at all dirty going on.
I downloaded the newest FireFox browser and it... is... fast!
The only thing that I don't care about is that I use alt+s on vbforums to submit my replies, but alt+s in FF brings up the history.
So whats the new browser rankings? MS Edge should be replacing IE by now
Edge sucks. Won't even launch on my Surface Pro 2. Can't remember what the suggested fix was - I know I was not wanting to apply it.
Edge had a lot of optimism surrounding the initial release. I believe I have used it in a few places (including on my Surface Pro 2, by the way, but I came to doubt that just yesterday, and I haven't checked, yet), but it seems a bit buggy, to me. That's not a total surprise for such a new item, though.
We use it at work and its seems to be ok. No issues. I also use Chrome too there and Edge seems faster
Edge is not a good browser, and you appreciate that more if your doing web development and testing it on the separate browsers, also i have never found Edge faster than Chrome.
I have just downloaded the new Firefox browser its seem pretty quick but i will have to use it more to judge it properly, i do like the new GUI it just feels nicer and less bulky than old firefox
I've used FireFox enough now for me to replace it back as my numero uno browser. I then use Chrome, not because of how quick it is, but because of the apps that I use on it (piggy, the great suspender, and HTTPS everywhere). I use IE for work and flex just sits on the toolbar.
Spent 2 days on this damn rubber tree! PITA to take out.

Well, let's hope it doesn't bounce back.
I just visited my brother-in-law in the ICU.
The little bit that I could gather is that he got stupid drunk at a party last night, fell and hit his head. Apparently he would randomly start blacking out and finally one of his friends (also drunk) drove him to the hospital. From what I understand, his lungs slowly stopped working last night and his brain wasn't getting enough oxygen so he would blackout.
I am almost certain that he wasn't just drinking last night...
Yeah, that sounds like a sedative, but it could be something over the counter.
I'm incredibly pissed.
He is only a few more months than I, but he still acts like we're young and dumb.
I got him licensed in insurance, got him two jobs, and he wound up quitting and going back to the restaurant industry working late nights and partying again.
Dude, you ARE young....though not dumb. Up until 27, each year lasts like about 400 days (even more when you are younger than 12). For a decade or so after 27, years are roughly 365 days, then they just start getting shorter and shorter.
On the other hand, some people just never do get older.
Wow....i made this thread a little over 17 years ago - I logged in to these forums today for the first time in who knows how many years (edit: 11 years since I last posted!!), and my mind is blown that it's still going :D
Must be great to see a legacy in action! We've certainly exceeded your original challenge of 1000 posts!!
To be honest Post Race is in a bit of a lull right now - it's been much hotter just a few months ago!
All of chit-chat is in a bit of a lull...or a lol, but lull is more accurate. The Post Race went through a revival a few years back when Niya tried for the crown, only to find out that posting many thousand posts in short order is boring.
Moar mermaids!
Awesome name... VB6.
I can finally release this good news because everything's has gone through. I was recently given a portion of a book of business from an agent who decided to sell her book of business back to the company.
That is great news. What does it represent as a percentage of your total book now?
Before, my total book of business was roughly $500k and the premium assigned to me was roughly $324k. The only catch is that I only get paid 3.5% commission on the policies unless I cross-sell the insured another policy; so basically the name of the game is to cross-sell.
I don't understand a word of this.
Say an insured has an auto policy that was assigned to me and the premium is $1,000. At my current "assigned" commission rate I would only receive $35 (or 3.5%) off the renewal of the policy. However, let's say that I then sell the same insured a homeowners policy or a life policy, then I would receive $100 (or 10%) off the renewal of the policy.
Insurance is a scam! -_- lol
Well the guy I had remodeling one of the bathrooms at my rental house just bailed. Very unprofessional. Guess that's what I get for trying to save several thousand bucks.
Contractors and mechanics, the two most unreliable professions.
Well, next to politicians that is.
Politicians seem very reliable at staying in office...
But not getting the job done.
And they grab all they can.
If somebody working on a bathroom starts bailing....that's bad.
