Black Sabbath tour announced and no dates within 8 hours.

Black Sabbath tour announced and no dates within 8 hours.

The venue by me is 2.5 hours out, which is far enough that I'll need to snag a hotel room for that night and then drive back the next day.

A small voice in my head tells me to go to Indianapolis. Well at least I have seen them once before.

And if you knew the area, you'd know that I can't just ride 10-20 miles since I'm on the highway and not many parts of it have bike paths and I have no intention of trying to ride my bike on the highway with the cars. And if it takes a bus an hour to get there, imagine how long a bike ride there would be.

Surely there must be side streets/local access roads that you can mostly take and only use the highway for very small portions of the trip (e.g, cutting through business parking lots). Get on the bike and explore the area, learn the short cuts. Look at maps.google.com for potential routes.

I will ride my mountain bike to work during the summer which is 16 miles each way. It takes an hour by bike, 35 minutes by car.

Lol. The first level. I can't seem to gauge depth very well and get lost a lot. Same problems I have had with Z64 for 15 years now. Somehow, I convince myself now and then that I'm ready to enjoy it finally. I won't lie; I vastly prefer the top down games but I know there is a good game in Z64 and I'd really like to find it.

Do you get lost easily in the overworld or in the dungeon or both? I find myself constantly looking at the map to confirm where I am. I do agree that if you're used to Link's Awakening, Link to the Past, OOT does take a bit getting used to.

Smile - Commando.

Just.

Man that movie. I can't stop smiling thinking about it.

I always lose it when Ahnald goes to Ammunation and one of the first things he puts in his cart is a pair of scuba flippers. 'Cause, you can't plan a successful raid without scuba flippers.

At some point, all there is that I can ride on is the highway. No bike paths, no side streets, no parking lots, no local access roads. And some parts of the highway don't have a "side of the road" area since it passes over a creek. Unless you're genuinely in the area OR you go Street View on the area in Google Maps, then you can't really say otherwise. But I've done both, so trust me.

Plus, like I said, it's an HOUR-LONG BUS RIDE, so it'll take even longer on bike, especially since there are no bike lanes on the 192.

And plus, a huge chunk of the area isn't really bike-friendly, since you don't see pedestrian lanes until you get around where Target is.

Wait, so the reason you don't apply to jobs in the area is that you'd have an hour long commute?

Some people take a two hour commute to work. I don't know of many people who are lucky enough to have a commute that is less than an hour. Not sure if you realize it or not, and I say this with no malice, but you could have simply posted "Excuses, excuses" for your last few posts in this thread. Time to grow up man.

The money you receive from unemployment should be allocated to three things: Barely scraping by, paying the monthly bills, and finding a job (resume paper, transportation costs, etc.). By your own admission you have been doing the bare minimum to try finding a job and go out for comic books.

You can tell me to take a long walk off a short bridge, but don't expect anymore sympathy from me, and probably from most of the members. You are getting free money, and don't even take the time to balance your account (and then complain about it). You also complain about not having a job, but put in minimal effort trying to find one. I do wish you the best of luck, but it is nose to the grindstone time.

Smile: I love these:

I've never had a job that was less than an hour commute. This is why the Japanese made Monster Hunter.

From October 21st until January 21st I had an hour and a half commute to the office every morning and a two and a half to three hour commute home almost every day. Thats atleast four hours of driving a day and getting up at 0500 or 0430 to get to the office by 0700. So yeah, people do it. But when you get home after that three hour drive home, well you are whipped. Now I drive an forty five minutes to an hour to each way. An hour is not that bad, and if you are not driving that means you can read. Id love to ride my commute every day and get through my book backlog.
