[K-Mack]

So, say K-Mack were considering bringing Around the Nation to LLPP territory, as he was last season before the big man sprang for a trip to Oregon. Which game(s) should he go to, and would he be able to assemble a good portion of the LLPP crew to show the rest of the nation, er, how you roll?

You should probably respond on the ATN thread; K-Mack's participation here is spotty at best.

(tries to master referring to self in third person)

Some weeks are off limits; the new job is not quite as forgiving with the weekend trips, but we should be able to make something happen.

man all quiet on the LLPP front...day before opening of the season and no one around...LD is excused as he is probably building an arc to ride out hannah but the rest of the LLPP no feetsball chatter...boyz out consuming alcohol last night and sleepin it off?

tgp had about 5 j&c's at happy hour.....does that count?

besides, the LL season doesn't start until next weekend (not technically true since the Larries, Sasquatch and the Bizarroneers have games, but), so we're all in hiberation until then.

here's a question for the LLPP....does anyone else think they would of created a better designed urinal by now? when you hit it straight on against the back of it, you have a almost flat surface and the collateral damage splashes back onto you...now when you really got to go and have some serious pressure its quite bad the shrapnal coming back on you (like when you have a 6 pack of beer and finally break the seal) pbr has been aiming off to the sidewall so it reflects onto the back wall of the urinal....but come on u cant convince pbr that others havent noticed it...a dood was standing next to pbr washing his hands and looked like he got nailed by a lawn sprinkler in his tan docker pants...maybe a W shaped urinal where u aim the the center of the W and it deflect to 1 or both sides of the urinal? what does the LLPP sayeth?

RT agrees completely and HATES the 'splashback'....RT has had many of nervous moment right before a work meeting w/ the splashback. If some mechanical engineer from RPI or WPI can't come up w/ a better mousetrap (or pee-trap in this case) then how about a quick-dry station for dress pants??

This literally had me busting out laughing....."nailed by a lawn sprinkler"....., but what happens when you are the nailee?  Are you the "quick grab a paper towel and try to start a fire on your pants" kinda guy or a "hey, it happens" and walk around trying to cover it up with your TPS report for the next 20 mins.

Here's a hint on the urinal situation....use the short one, at least the collateral damage is guided lower towards your knees and shoes.

KMac...RT sees how you could not make it to Shoozapallooza, or the "Dutch Shoes" contest between RPI & Union on 11/1....besides being the oldest college football matchup in NYS and one of the older ones in the US, this game will be the last time it's played on '86 field in Troy (as in 1886 field) and could have postseason implications. Throw records out the window, this game is always a brawl. It will be on local cable (Time Warner) and RT and Frank Rossi will be holding their 3rd annual pregame show to be carried on WABY locally in the capital district as well as Teamline...heck, we'll even get KMac on the air. There will be a LARGE crowd RT is betting for this.

The other recommendation is Hobart at RPI on 11/8...last home regular season game ever to be played on '86 and the LL crown could come down to this game if the last couple of regular seasons are an indication.

Just RTs 2 cents but RT recommends union.

+K Reg.

The short urinal is always the best case scenerio for splashback protection.  A downward hydraulic cone shaped flow will minimize any sort of spashback that always occurs with a horizontal "sixpack sealbreaker" flow as PBR mentioned.



However, JU has also come across with another urinal problem that he faces at work.  At the bottom of the urinal, the water comes down so hard from the flush, that it splashes around the bottom and comes out of the bowl.  Now your not only getting splashback, but potential u-cake breakoff may also infiltrate ones clothing.  This is why it is important to keep the 1-1.5 feet distance from any unknown urinal for maximum protection.

absolutely reg...pbr used to do the quick wipe down but w/ the new aim pbr has been money!! this has to be happening to alot of people as pbr notices some heavy drippage/droppage splattering on the floor in front of the urinal. people have to be standing back arcing it long distance into the urinal...cant some engineer design a decent urinal out there?

all current urinals out there....

perhaps PRB will lobby for this at work...

people have to be standing back arcing it long distance into the urinal...

This has to be the funniest LLPP line of 2008.  +k. 

I was reading this while a client was droning on about something and, while he was in the middle of a sentence about something, I just busted out laughing and had to play it off like something happened outside my window...

['gro]

Urinals? you guys don't sit down to pee?   


No really, I hate the splashback... like PBR said its a death sentance for khaki pants.

[PBR...]

its that time LLPP'rs ...the drinking lamp is lit... no need to bring water for your scotch as there will be plenty around tomorrow...

There's this old theatre in Fins' hometown that has this huge old urinal they call "The King". No problem at all with the sprinkler effect, unless of course you're too short to aim low.
The King is awesome!

Wow, thanks Fins....now THAT is a pee-trap. Probably even has a ton of gavity working for it too with some sort of 1880's design-karma.

They have a lite-version of the King (the Prince, maybe?) at the Gideon Putnam Hotel in Saraoga Springs, NY.
