Ok....the REAL story...... Yesterday I stopped by the grocery store. I got lucky and found a parking spot at the very end of a row, right next to an entrance. Since we only needed a loaf of bread, Sarah waited in the car. As I was getting out of the car I farted. Sarah laughed, so I decided to get even by releasing the whole thing while I still had my butt inside the car. I let it fly, finished getting out of the car and shut the car door..... Then I noticed this big fat girl walking toward me trying her best but failing miserably to not let me see that she had heard everything, and was laughing her ass off.... When you get old you can get away with stuff like that.....

The Russians would be foolish not to invade while we are vulnerable.

I think ive worked with that duck before...

Having vacationed in Finland I can say that these tweets are extremely accurate

Hey, if people can't believe everything they read, they're going to stop reading.

In Ukraine? After the Afghanistan debacle? I don't think so.

@jon-nyc said in 55 years ago today: Guy on the right (Chaffee) was in my fraternity house at Purdue, some 30 years before me. I actually lived in his very room during my sophomore year. Haha that is pretty cool.

Our house is cedar sided and it's a fairly dark green too. When we last redecorated we had I think 12 shades of green on the first floor. We have an open enough floor plan that you can't just do a room. You have to do the whole floor. We're trying to move to a more transitional look, a mix of modern and traditional.

I'm more of an Islay guy over Speyside, but definitely +1 on Monkey Shoulder.

The flaw in trying to argue against guns by citing statistics on how many were hurt or killed by guns is that no one is keeping statistics on the number of people who were helped or saved by a gun.

The 100% survival rate is pretty impressive.

@mik said in FAIR sues NYC for racializing medical care: For years now on here I have been saying that race issues have become a search for advantage, not equality. We know... ; )

But, just in case, I'll power-cycle the server for potential pending updates. Expect a minute or so of down time...

Why not? It makes the oceans move.
