So what do you all do with your jackets? Are there coat rooms? Do you hold them in your hand? Wrap around your waist? Leave em on? I dunno...

Yeah generally coat areas and what have you.

The problem is going to public place. Some have coat check areas, which are priced. Others have nothing so you have to hope you get either like a booth or some area where you can rest your stuff where you sit.

I once left my stuff at a bar (drunk warmth took me home), didn't retrieve it for like 2 months.

I usually leave my coat in the car, just in case there isn't anywhere to put it. No matter how cold it is, it probably won't hurt you to run like 20 feet to the house/store/restaurant.

Today I learned (rather remembered) that the CFL has a dumb (yet in this case good) rule about the standings- the crossover.


Quote:

The second-place team from each division hosts the third-place team in the division semifinal, unless a fourth-place team from one division finishes with a better record than a third place team in the other.
So now the BC Lions - the westernmost team in the CFL, is playing in the Eastern Conference because we did marginally better than a team in the East.

I am now a fan of this rule.

That's the best idea I've heard all week. :) Thanks.

Today I learned I can browse and post on GT pretty easily via my mobile browser.

Also, recently I learned that if you say "Beer Can" in a British accent, it sounds the same as saying "Bacon" in a jamaican accent

I've learned how it goes when you stay up all night. If you have something important to do, it's ok. As soon as the sun comes up, you somehow lose your weariness. Very weird. :confused:

Today I learned the nutrition facts on Pepsi products are garbage. Take their numbers for 8oz (1 serving) and the numbers for 20oz (2.5 * 8). Numbers don't match.

Your first mistake was drinking that nasty sewage, Pepsi.
