I'm being offered Garner and Driver for Dillon and Holt.
My starting RBs are Dillon and Dunn, with Bettis on my bench.
My WRs are Holt and Harrison with Mason, Booker, and Tim Brown on my bench.
I know i'm giving up more in Holt but I need a serious upgrade at RB and can spare a WR.
Any thoughts?

There are no supermarkets. d'Agostinos is what you would get if Super Stop and Shop freeze dried and shrunk to 1/10th the original size.
Drinks are insanely expensive. I went to normal place. No band. No DJ. $10 for a mixed drink. Oh, and a $25 cover.
There are REALLY a lot of small businesses. Everywhere else, it's major chains concentrated in malls or big plazas. Here, there really aren't a lot of large chains for buying stuff. It's just small businesses along every street. I've always heard that 80% of the businesses in the country employ less than 10 people. And now I can see why.
The chains that do exist, exist only here. I've never heard of Duane Reade. Ever in my life. Ever. Granted, I've only been in the city for two weeks, but I've seen 50 Duane Reades and not a CVS, Walgreens, Brooks, or Osco.
The hot chick/normal chick ratio is better here than Boston. So much so that it shouldn't even be talked about.
Cabs are cheap.
Aside from work, I will have no reason to go 5 blocks from my apartment.
There's a public access channel that shows nudity? That can't be right.

Article Quote:Court blocks ‘Do Not Call’ list
Oklahoma court says FTC overstepped its authority
MSNBC STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
Sept 24 — A federal judge has ruled that the Federal Trade Commission overstepped its authority in creating a national do-not-call list against telemarketers. The ruling came in a lawsuit brought by telemarketers who challenged the list, comprised of names of people who do not want to receive business solicitation calls. The immediate impact of Tuesday’s ruling was not clear.
Yay! So I WILL have a telemarketing job to fall back on if this whole architecture thing doesnt pan out.

It has been over a year since I have stopped watching TV. It wasn't an intentional act. My life has been in a transitional state for the past little while and I've been moving around quite a bit. Where I've been for the past year I haven't felt like being bothered to go getting another TV and getting cable. I miss the sports for the most part (I do watch football everyweek though at a friends). I wake up and go about my business and I find that I have no clue what is going on weather-wise, news-wise, and recent interesting event-wise each day.
The funny part to me is listening to people talk about TV related subjects and they do it quite often. I hear about survivor, fear factor, mtv video music awards, "bennifer". Lots and lots of meaningless bullshit that seems to occupy a lot of people's thought and time. Someone will come up to me and say did you see such and such last night. I say no i don't watch tv and they look at me like I'm out of my fucking mind. I'll hear people talking about a bit of gossip they heard or saw on tv and I'll ask them why do you care and waste your time witrh such nonsense? They say they don't really it's just something to talk about. Yet it is amazing how much time people spend with their tvs. If they aren't watching it they are discussing it. No shit right? Yes maybe but to have the perspective I have on it now, being out of the loop and all, is pretty cool. TV is a drug. You don't snort it, smoke it or inject it. It goes through your eyes and ears and it takes over your life. It just so happens that it's a socailly acceptable "drug" and people can generally "do" it and keep the wheels of society rolling.

Sure, she can sing, but she actually thought that tuna was chicken and not fish.
Then tonight, she raises the bar on "Newlyweds" on MTV. She was offered buffalo wings and denied them because "I dont' eat buffalo".
Someone at the table reasoned that buffaloes(buffalo?) don't have wings to which she replied, "I never put that much thought into it".
I say Nick Lachey kills her by the end of season one, and doesn't get charged in the killing. What man wouldn't understand killing this stupid bitch. I mean yeah, she's fine as hell, but any man has his limits.

So, I'm black, but some people would call me "african-american". In reality, I'm as much of an african as any of you.
There are very few people left in this country that can truly call themselves american, yet white people seem to think that they are the true americans.
Diversity made this country happen, but much of it still holds anger towards inter-racial dating/marriage. To me, this just lends itself towards keeping a shallow gene pool.
How else can you explain how each race has its defining charcteristics?
What ever happend to MLK's dream?
I'm left with the conclusion that people suck. That lack of understanding leads to much of the hatred that exists between the races.

Not having power for nearly a week, the stupid power company not having enough dry ice and deciding to stop handing it out after like a day so all your groceries rot in your fridge.
Oh, and the mall you work at deciding to not close and force you to drag your ass to work, fucking awesome.
