Those guys were talented, I think that looked like an IT convention, I did not read about it just watched the video. Still I laughed till I choked, the funny part to me was I have seen your posts before but never noticed you were from Spokane, I lived there for 20 years, just left about 4 years ago. Some things about that place I miss, but shoveling snow and the cost of living will keep me from moving back I think. Will be back sometime this year for the hell of it , some friends and stuff and a reunion at the base.

I wasn't expecting that to be that funny lol. I ended up spitting out milk all over my shirt.

Poor Qtrain, you moved to the worst state in history...welcome to Sloklahoma.

Entertaining. Also I found it strange because in my part of the world we say router different. The word route here rhymes with gout, not boot. "Rowter" not "Rooter". Broke the magic for me every time he said it :P

That was the first time I ever heard it pronounced that way. Rowt all the way.

Very amusing :)

He's English and that's how we pronounce it over here.

Router(rooter) = Something which distributes computer packets.
Router(rowter) = Tool used for wood-working.

In Texas:

Router(rooter) = Drunk guy at a football game cheering for his team.
Router(rowter) = Old guy on his porch giving directions based on where people (you don't know) live and stores that "used to be there in my day".

I'm a "Rowter" guy too. Rooter is what plumbers do when stuff gets clogged in your pipes...
