This thread is all about (good-natured, I hope) gloating. While I'm fully expecting Yankees fans to post here within a month or so, I'll start.

ob "In your mom" answer.
Being from outside the States (and from outside America, which despite insistence on the topic, it's not the same thing), I love the Red Sox, but I can't stand the Patriots. I sympathize with the Celtics in a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" way, and they destroyed hockey when they started with the penalty shot shootout crap. Bottom Line: Hit and Miss. But congrats Boston. _________________ Jan 21st, 2008: The pillaging continues.

Welcome to LA, loozah!
Lakers: 2000, 2001, 2002, 2009, 2010
Sparks: 2001, 2002
Galaxy: 2002, 2005
Angels: 2002
Ducks: 2007
Five teams. Eleven titles. Eleven years. Do the math.
(I know, I know. Sparks don't count because they're women, Galaxy don't count because they're soccer, and Angels and Ducks don't count because they're Anaheim. And I'm sure you can come up with a reason why the Lakers don't count, either.) |

Oh, I'm fine with Angels and Ducks; and, of course, the Lakers count. But let's stay in this millennium, shall we?

Looks like 6 to me. |

Gloating doesn't apply only to major sports teams:
My husband and I both just got raises at work (we work at the same company), and now I make more than he does. Before this, we made the same amount.
(He's fine with this, and its really not a big deal overall, but as Zag said, a little good natured gloating is good times.) |

What Pablo failed to mention is that he's about 8,000 years old, so its hard to enjoy that sort of thing anyway.
That is pretty awesome. But really, I am 27 and the VP of a company where I work with my best friend, my husband and a few other good friends. Having to work isn t the best thing ever, but I can t say as I have it that badly (not to mention that as the VP I pretty much decide how the company runs, which is sweet.) |

Seriously, that's awesome! I hope you continue to have a career as rewarding as mine has been and I hope you get to retire when you choose, on your own terms. I worked for 44 years before the time was right for me. Evidently, I graduated college at age 7,056.  _________________ All religions are the same - Guilt....just with different holidays. |

7,056 + 44 != 8,000, and that's because you don't draw blanks.
OTOH, j_s has it very nicely, congrats! _________________ Jan 21st, 2008: The pillaging continues.

| We have 5 ten week terms a year with only 2 weeks off. It is an accelerated profssional program. I teach general education classes. That means this term was lots of math and next term is writing and computer applications (office and internet) as well as the personal development classes. I love my career, but I could do with out having to grade things. |

Ok so 2-2...still not bad though. I still think that, as long as they can avoid injuries, the Indians will at least make the playoffs next season. _________________ What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. |
