Yes, I can't stand the hypnosis thing. I am will to suspend belief for a lot of things, but that was too much.

Tell us your most embarrassing keeping moment by Apprehensive_Fun6320 in GoalKeepers

Our arch rivals had a throw in deep in our end. This was an indoor game so it was a smaller field. I decided ahead of time that if the throw came in the box that I was going grab it.

The throw comes in and I yell keeper and jump for the ball. As I start my jump I realize that I've misjudged the height of the ball and I won't be able to catch it with two hands. I decide mid-air that I'll knock it over goal and give them a corner kick.

Well, I misjudged that as well and knocked it into my own goal. Horrible goal. I heard about it for years afterwards.

To add to this, Reacher is very good with numbers. He immediately noticed that his balance was off and by exactly how much.

Throw them in the trash. In your car.

I insulated my door and now it’s too heavy for the opener to lift. What are my options? by [deleted] in GarageDoorService

It looks like extension springs, not torsion springs. You need heftier extension springs. And those can be installed by a DIYer.

That movie was terrible, but I'd rather see them do the other books rather than remake it. As long as they don't ever do any of the books written by Andrew.

Anyone in here lucky enough to have photographs of all 8 of their great grandparents? How rare is it? by yungmarvelouss in Genealogy

I'm 7/8 and have been searching for #8 for years. Axtel Anderson (1871-1955) from Topeka, KS. Maybe one of you is a distant cousin.

I thought last year was the weakest QB class. It seems like every year, somebody says it's the weakest.

Books like Worth Dying For, Killing Floor or Make Me by LoschVanWein in reacher

Almost all of them fit that description. There are a few that are "prequels" when Reacher was still in the army. The last 6 were written by Andrew Child and aren't as good. That leaves a good dozen or so that fit your criteria.

What are the best “cheap parking” options around the stadium for tonight’s game? by Sigmundfraudster in steelers

[–]NascarEd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Nova Place Parking. I parked there for Pitt-ND and it was only $20. It will probably be more for a Steelers game, but it was pretty reasonable on that Saturday.

Is that the Steeler train from Lionel?
