[quote name='lordwow']Well then, I better get headed to the airport!

if you guys even had airports in Alabama
[/QUOTE]

Yes, we have airports. We also have pleasant climates, nice people, and good food.
 
I've lost 35 pounds.

Some of that shit is really hard. For the life of me I can't do the Hula hoop. I'm going to hit it hard and heavy when I get back from Louisville in June.
 
I almost went to Bama once when I lived in Atlanta for a few months, but I did not.

Maybe someday. The food is superb. Especially the Sweet Tea
 
[quote name='munch']I figured that, but I thought I'd offer it here first.[/quote]

That's cause you BAMF, $$$$a!

I was going to offer up my uno code from the vision pack I got on clearance from TRU before manthung did it, but I ended up using it, since I figured it should go on the hard drive to encourage playing (vs having to pop in the arcade vol 1 disc).

I am that lazy.

:rofl: yeah I'm surprised that there's actually a handful of HARD exercises on there.
Have you unlocked the 6 minute Super Hula Hoop?!

[quote name='lordwow']:rofl: frosty.

I hardly play GeoWars because of that effort.[/QUOTE]

I would love to have GeoWars and Poker on my HDD instead of on a disc. I would play both of those a lot more if I did.

And lilboo, I haven't unlocked that yet. I really like the yoga on Wii Fit. I'll probably do that more than anything else.
 
I don't get this whole "sweet tea" business.

I've lived in the NE all my life, and I've never had trouble finding or brewing sweet tea. What's so special about it these days? It's just iced tea with sugar, right?

^this

I can't believe I'm so lazy that I won't pull out the Unplugged disc to play poker or GW, but whatever.

The I remember the other crap on the disc(Wik, Kaloki, Backgammon) plus the irritation of the disc popping demos of OTHER crappy XBLA games
 
Really frosty? I find it near impossible to buy it up here (other than shit Arizona stuff). It's definitely possible to brew it yourself though.

Err. I think you're thinking of Sweetened Ice Tea (like Neste), which is NOT Sweet Tea.

Well, I suppose that's true -- nestea and all that mass produced "soft drink" stuff is there...

unless the difference is that in the south, if you order "iced tea" it comes automagically sweet, where as in the north, you order "iced tea", people check if "unsweetened" is ok, and then you have it and add your favorite sugar[type] substance...
 
From Wikipedia:

Sweet tea is a form of iced tea in which sugar or some other form of sweetener is added to the hot water before brewing, while brewing the tea, or post-brewing, but before the beverage is chilled and served. This especially sweet variation of tea enjoys most of its popularity in the Southern United States, though bottled iced teas labeled "Southern Style" or "Extra-sweet Southern Style" appear in refrigerated cases throughout the country.

When you order iced tea up here, it comes unsweetened for the most part, at least that's what I've found, unless it's flavored (like at Unos or Chilis).

If you order Iced Tea in the South you get Sweet Tea.

Sweet Tea is really like 2x as sweet as Iced Tea with sugar in it.

We watched a video about her in my Soc class (my prof studies cat people). She is surprisingly a lot better than most of the crazies, because she can actually feed them and clean up after them.

gross:
most cat people take on so many cats that most of them die due to malnutrition/sicknesses and the cat people don't even realize that they're not helping the cats at all and that they are decomposing in their house.

"Hoarders" (as they're called in Soc) generally take on so many cats because they don't want them to be euthanized, but end up having most of them die
 
Also back on the topic of sweet tea,

Sweet Tea in the rest of the US:

hile iced tea is usually served sweetened throughout the Southern United States, in the rest of the United States iced tea is usually served unsweetened. It is moderately common to add a small amount of sweetener to the already cold tea. Much bottled and canned tea is sold, usually sweetened with a natural sweetener such as cane sugar or high fructose corn syrup or with an artificial sweetener.

In the mid-2000's, McDonald's Restaurants began a major marketing campaign for sweet tea, making it available throughout the U.S. and selling it for approximately two-thirds the price of the chain's other large-size cold beverage offerings. The sweet tea caloric information is not available on the popularly distributed nutrition info sheet. According to the company's website, McDonald's sweet tea has 230 calories.

Although sweet tea (as a moderately watered, sugar pre-added, iced drink) is stereotypically a South-Eastern United States tradition, it is common in many cultures to add sweeteners to their tea.
 
So the big ass container that you mix together in a pitcher is NOT considered sweet tea?
In my slang and next of the woods, Iced Tea = cold tea that's sweet.
 
Ya. That's what most people elsewhere in the US think Sweet Tea is. I did before I lived in the South for a while.

I think that what most of you are thinking of is "Sweetened Tea," like when you go to a fast food place and they have iced tea and it says "Sweetened" or if you mix together powdered iced tea and add sugar. None of that is sweet tea.

Sweet tea has to be brewed with the sugar in it, and it only stays good for about a day or so.

The place I worked for, we ate dinner around 1 AM every night at a local restaurant, and had to call ahead and ask them to save the sweet tea or they'd dump it every night.
 
I'm at work, but my work allows me to sit on the computer during downtime, which is about 90% of the time.

I do have to do an hour set of rounds coming up though.
