Suburbs of NYC, Lu.

Don't we go over the "where us NYers live" like every 10 days? O.o;

Speaking of which, I think I have family near Ruma.

I call bs then.
i never see kids doing any part time jobs anymore.
I have seen any kids ask to rake leaves or shovel the driveways in 5 years!!!

Really? We get whole slews of them in SI. Raking leaves and snow shoveling are literally big things, kids scrambling to do them to make a few bucks.

Also, I don't know when the hell the neighbors are moving or redoing something, they need help they gotta give a holler.

Edit: Cai, you're the tech guy here; is there any really trustworthy backup utility you know of? I have to ship my laptop back to HP tomorrow so they can fix my numpad and such.

Cheap labor isn't always Mexicans.

Around here, it could be my brothers or I; neighborhood kids. Or it could be a few guys that your handyman doesn't have working at that moment willing to make a bit. I've had more cheap laborer Irish, Italian, and German workers than Mexicans in the course of my time working on the house with my dad.


Isn't that how Mafia's start?

Talking about how it's roots got started. Something like how gangs started before the violence.

Hardworking people that made connections through oddjobs.

Eh, supposedly it was more to do with the orange and lemon areas of Sicily, but I think it started a long time before it's said to have.

In the way of software? Depending upon whether you want to image your hard drive (creates a 1:1 copy of your hard drive as a single file) I'd recommend DriveImageXML (freeware) or for a general file backup I'd recommend Cobian Backup. I use both between a few computers and really like each of them.

Also, for sake of choice and reading material:
- http://lifehacker.com/5303067/five-best-free-system-restore-tools
- http://lifehacker.com/398229/five-best-windows-backup-tools

I read Lifehacker almost religiously, and it's a great site. Not one of those thousands of "Top 100 freeware collection blahblah" listings, lol.

In other news, I got a postcard in the mail from this site the other day totally randomly: http://www.ultrajumper.com/main.html - "MOST EXTREME SPORT, EVER."

What a weird time to walk in. lol I swear you live in crazyexgflandachusetts, Row. Feels like way too many of your midday tales involve wacky girls being ***.

I'm sure it's a little difficult to tell a pregnant woman no when she needs help, but it's her own fault for needing to depend on someone who she hasn't bothered to talk to or check up on. Regardless, no matter how this story gets told, you'll probably end up looking like an ***, so there's that. If you feel guilt'd into it by your conscience (not the forums) don't let that hold you back, though. Nothing wrong with helping out an undeserving person in need, it's not your responsibility to teach them how the world works. lol

And people wonder why I have problems finding a girl. Apparently I have bad taste in women or something.


I'm telling you time to switch teams ;D

I say go for broke and go after girls /completely/ out of your league. The fact that you're even talking to them will catch them off guard and assume there's something amazing about you. Not that there isn't, but I'm not prepared to get that complimentary over the internet today. lolol Besides, living in your own place and a nice, new car go far with woman in the adult world. No one wants a man-child! lol

Or date Citag. His hair looks like Algus' which is neat.

They weren't illegal activities until people had laws made to stop it. It was mainly people helping each other. Soon they controlled whatever it was that they mainly did. Most movies showed them as a modern day robin hood.

From the stories I've heard in the family, it seems like the early NYC mafia was sort of a protection/aid group. Maybe there are just too many sides to this story that no one ever took the time to sort out fully.

Hmmm...well it always seems to be the "favors". I know intimidation was a huge factor that gave them negative rep.

46DNC...couldn't help you with that decision. I did them on DRG until 45 and they were a pain sometimes for me.

I'm curious on how you would build the TP you say you need. Kinda defeats the purpose to solo if you gotta have TP to ensure a win.
