Since it's a slow day in the world of MMA, I thought it would be cool to talk about Tapology and ourselves.. anything at all regarding the same.  I'll get a brief start going..

I live in PA, am 30 and have been a fan of MMA since I was a teenager.  Work for the railroad and rarely ever miss an event regardless of promotion/stature.  I like Tapology b/c of the environment it fosters.  I wish we could edit/delete our posts... maybe have categories of threads for the forums, but all in all, I appreciate the type of place this is thus far.

@Live2wrestle I still use Vista on my laptop. My work computer is Windows 7, so I have to be used to 3 operating systems. Sometimes I'll forget which one I'm using and hit the windows key expecting the windows 8 start screen.

UFC 48:

Joe Rogan: You know, it was hard to tell watching it as it happened, but in the replay you can see why referee Herb Goodman stopped the fight. 

Herb Goodman LOL.

Vista is proven to be atleast 3x faster then windows 7. Not sure about windows 8 but I'm guessing atleast 2x faster. Seeing as it's basically the same.

@Live2wrestle Vista was awful, the security **** popped up for every program, every program would crash every day and like p4pgoat said, it was compatible with NOTHING.

Man @Cthu... good to know.  Weird **** isn't it?  You got a blizzard and then 50 miles away you got tornados... the weather is playing havoc on the railroad... we can't run our trains between Ft. Worth and Little Rock... the trains that were in the area at the time the **** hit the fan... one arrived into Chicago over 15hrs late... the other going south was even later.

Yeah, the weather is super pissed off. Sitting in the cold dark for 2 days made me want to murder everyone. There are a lot of people here that are going to be without power until next week. I wasn't sure if I'd have it back by Saturday for UFC 155 or not.

Anyone familiar with getting punched in the face?

The swelling on my face is numb unless I sneeze or something and then my cheek (where I got punched) hurts like ****.

Feels pretty weird.

Sounds like an "Irish kiss" you got.


I used to get bad swelling and nose breaks when I sparred/fought in boxing.

My suggestion is just anti inflammatory meds/ painkillers, along with ice.

if the swelling does not fully go down then I also suggest a doctor.
