Why deface a 2-dollar bill with Bevington's picture on the page banner?

Because I couldn't find an image editing site that has a three dollar bill template.

Also, a 2-dollar bill kind of works for TBev.  It's legal but very few people carry one on their person and would prefer their money in other denominations.  Just like Bevington.

I love 2-dollar bills.  I seek them out.  I am offended to see TBev on one.

Before the question arises, the six closed & locked topics have not been deleted.  They are still here.  They've just been relegated to the 2nd page of 'general discussion', so only the 14 active topics are now showing on 'page one'.

Heh, that bare patch behind the mound on the Sale pic reminds me of the ball dispenser Veeck had installed at Comiskey. I remember it being behind home plate, but wasn't there something that came out of the ground behind the mound too?

I thought so.  How funny.

That however, is a sprinkler system box.

Seems that if a batted ball hit that thing, it would carom at a crazy angle.

Really, this comment was just an excuse to use the word "carom."

Not knowing anything about sprinkler systems, one would think you could design it such that the valve box is not between the lines, or maybe make ita little deeper and cover it with sod.

You use  Google Chrome too, correct?   

Do you have the same problem there too?

Indeed, if you simply hit "quote", it flashes a bar that says "loading" then does nothing, once you hit quick post, the post you hit quote on, is waiting for you to post under.

( this post was just tested and made from Chrome v21.0.1180.83 m)

okay, I think I figured out how to correct this problem as the 'quote feature' works fine for me now.

How to fix it for yourself:

step 1: click on 'profile' (located right under the Ron Kittle card to the middle of the horizon)

step 2: then click on 'look and layout' (located far to the left under the modify profile column)

step 3: near the bottom of the page, there is a "Use quick reply on topic display" box.  Set it to 'show, on by default'. then click the rectangular black button labeled 'Change profile' and that should correct the problem.

I just did the above steps and the 'quote feature' works fine for me now and the flashing 'loading' bar is gone. The quick reply box now stays open (ugly) but the quote feature now works.


Update:  If you don't like the quick reply box showing at the bottom of each topic page, go back to step 3 and set the "Use quick reply on topic display" box to 'don't show at all'.  Then once again click on  the black rectangular 'Change profile' button.  Your quick reply feature be inoperative and when you hit the 'quote feature' on a post it will work fine.

"They" track your online activity and know your interests and tailor the ads accordingly. I'm not kidding. It's actually kind of creepy. Method or JosephC could probably characterize this better than I can.

A friend was showing me this three-section lasagna pan she wants, and now that damn thing shows up in an ad every once in awhile on various sites. I'm taking a cruise on SilverSea next month, so I'm getting SilverSea ads on this page, in addition to a ton of other pitches for different European travel.
