  1. hey all..how's everyone doing? sorry i have not been around a lot,but i had a lot of things to do, and i think i got most of them done except for this. :rolleyes: i have xm radio and while its great in the car it sucks indoors at work. so i got a program (wm recorder) that records the shows i like from the xm site on the internet. (no internet at work). but the files are .asf and my little mp3 player wont play them.

    so i need to convert and hopefully for free.

     

     

    asf to mp3 or wav

     

    anyone know of any free programs to do this..?

     

     

    thanks

  2. You know what they do in the US Navy (don't know about others) to the guys the first time they cross the equator?

     

    Smear them with crank case oil, every kind of engine grease and other disgusting fluids imaginable. My grandfather went through it in the mid-Thirties and, from what I'm told, it still goes on today (tho' I don't know if women have to endure it. (Obviously, there were no women onboard naval vessels 70 years ago. Yeah, Gramps'll be 91 this year. Was in Dubya Dubya eye-eye and Korea too. Though he only saw action in the latter war. He reached the highest enlisted rank. Since he retired in '57 and Congress didn't introduce E-8 & E-9--Senior Chief and Master Chief of the Navy, respectively--until '59, E-7 was as far as he could go.)

     

    There was ritual at aeronautical plant in my home town. When a guy got married, the rest of his work crew would grab him, pants him, and spray paint his nuts blue. This came from an unimpeachable source. (It's a good thing to have women around.)

     

     

     

     

    "Soggy Biscuit" is more common than you may think. Its common place in the armed forces apparently. More so the Navy, but hey, thats the Navy...Hello Sailor!!

     

    I know a guy that was in the 2nd Para Regiment that took part in this ceremony when he joined. He claims he was neither a winner or a looser, but Im not sure myself as I know what the little deviant is like....

     

    well it still goes on today..pollywog to shellback i went through it back in the 80's..and my kid will be going through it soon..but it has gotten easier its not as bad as it used to be.

  3. as kids we used to go out by LaGaudia airport in NY and lie on a hill that was close to the landing path of incoming flights and they were no more than 50 -100 feet off the hill before touchdown the earth moved the noise was incredible, they finally fenced off that section and you couldn't do it any more :(

     

    my father would take us to Newark airport when we were young, there was a bridge at the end of a runway the planes would take off and be about 75 feet above us.

    talk about loud! :w00t:

  7. The ONLY way is not to purchase the equipment of the discs. Then it might go the way of the original DIVX discs and players.
