  1. We have a Segway C80 and it is fun for running quick errands around town. We put a little cargo thing on the back.
  2. Man, I could not imagine going down in a sub that looks like that. Let alone controlling it with a Logitech G F710 controller with 3D printed thumbsticks.
  3. Confirmed that Activision/Blizzard would watch the world burn to sale a few extra copies.
  4. Zac Gallen has joined Randy Johnson as a member of the Arizona Birdkillers. The difference between the two, Randy's bird was vaporized. Zac's sort of just traveled toward the catcher after being hit.
  5. Just when I think umps can't sink any lower they eject a player for clapping that an check swing appeal went his team way. Like DBacks or not. Just setting the bar lower and lower for umpires.
  6. I liked the Diamondbacks vest jerseys from when the team started playing. There really is a jersey right now that I really would go out and buy. Maybe the Snake Head practice jerseys. I need to get myself a Trash Pandas cap one of these day. That said, I have always in general like baseball jerseys because of their simplicity.
  7. My wife got me a gift for my new office at work. Didn't know she was bidding on it, but it will look nice hanging near my desk.
  8. I'm sure what is happening with Diamond Sport Network and the Diamondbacks across the street have no impact on this decision.
  9. Got to wonder how much of that is your GM being a dingus. Least I know that Kendrick is being a cheap ass in an effort to pad his baseball card collection. His whole schtick of revenue neutral never added up to me with how the payroll is damn near the same, but claims each season that the front office could add $30-50 million to the payroll near opening day.
  10. As a D-Backs fan I will trade you Kendrick for Henry straight up.
  11. Yes, I left my job as a 911 dispatcher. I was incredibly happy. One day I had a call that I just couldn't shake, my fellow dispatchers understood my reasoning for leaving and they and most all of the deputies and fire/EMT personal still stay in touch with me.
  12. Man, that reminded me of the Jason Kendall injury all those years back.
  13. Yeah, shame on the whole stadium mess (roof can't be open/closed with fans in the building out of fear the cables will snap and kill people, AC no longer working well enough to cool the building, pipes breaking, video boards requiring daily maintenance to function, ect). The saga between the county and the team has been crazy. Hopefully that situation will get sorted before all this talent actually get into full swing. But between a cheap owner and an unbudging county I don't have high hopes.
  14. I'm hoping for maybe a .500 season. Not really expecting a ton, but my goodness the future for the D-Backs looks hell of bright. People seem to give Hazen crap here and there, but he has really set up the franchise to have a solid pipeline of young talent for a few years. The Carroll signing was also a nice touch, here is to him panning out in the long run.
  15. Company follows latest tread to capture profits. News at 11.
  16. It really is amazing what the Southern Nevada Water District has accomplished. They use fair less than the allotments from the Colorado River and even with the newest provisions are still under the new number. That said, they still are trying to get water from Northern Nevada, which has also seen reserves dry up. I know Lake Lohanton was just a few acre-feet from its kill level this last summer. Hopefully with all the snow/rain we have had the last couple of months it will help. But still it is a temporary reprieve overall.
  17. My current career path is something that my wife and I talked about as more of a legacy career choices where I can hope to leave a mark of some sort with whatever time my health provides. Just trying to help make the world around me a little better is all.
  18. Mt Rose Highway is horrible in winter as well. Might be for the best that CareFlight was there and the boo boo bus didn't have to drive it down.
