Welcome to KF, RenegadeRSA. Happy to have you as a member of our community. Patrick

Good point. Patrick

Was looking at this article http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1159241/1/index.htm via Digg and thought I'd ask who collected baseball (or any sport) cards here? I used to collect them a lot and love them to death... still have an affinity for them, but yeah, it's several years since I bought a pack... just a sign of the times. I guess. But, I still have all of my cards! Hehe.

Welcome back, BDPulver. Good to see you. Best of luck finding somewhere to rent. Patrick

Pretty amazing video. Via Digg via VideoSift.

Feel bad for Zach. He's a good guy.

Hey Joe, Interesting topic, thanks for starting it. Yeah, I agree, that's cool. I find it neat to see marketing integrations like this. At the end of the day, it's not so much about who did it first as it's just a good idea. You can go even farther back than that to Michael Jackson reworking "Billie Jean" for Pepsi (and I'm sure someone probably did it before that!) In some cases, I bet it's for radio promo, too, where the artist will record the DJ's name in the song, etc. They record a bunch of DJs at once. They typically just do radio "drops," which are the artist introductions you hear where it's like "this is Miley Cyrus and you're listening to..." but this sort of thing is a little more interesting.

I would be interested in giving it a try.

None here.

I signal for EVERYTHING.

I like this poll because it illustrates that all ages are pretty evenly represented here. This makes for a nice mix.

It's more of a test of watching TV and talking on the phone. Patrick

I actually don't know about that test and it's applicability to actual driving. The object of driving isn't so much to count numbers as it is to be aware of your surroundings. I don't really count knowing what people are wearing and assigning them points based on their color as being aware - actually, I think it might be the opposite. If you spent all day counting people or focusing on what they were wearing and simply starring straight ahead, you'd miss what was going to to your left, right and behind you, which is just as important.

Great advice, everyone. WHEN?! Just kidding. Great tip, I really agree. The foundation of the community is the martial arts, but that doesn't mean we can't share other things in our lives or other interests that we have. Thanks, Patrick

Welcome to KF, beagstkd! Happy to have you. We appreciate the kind words about the community! Patrick

Good luck to your daughter, Brian. Patrick
