DID YOU KNOW

[old bob]

(Gonna have to start a blog one of these days, darn...)

Oh YES do it

[rknapp]

Sounds like everything's in working order to me

 

Actually I completely agree with you! I think that number HAS to be off. I've just done some math and by conservative estimates I'm at at least 5,000. That would only give me 2,200 more for the rest of my life. Assuming I make it to 74 - I think the current life expectancy for males in the USA is slightly older, and I'm quite healthy so it seems doable - that would only be about once every two weeks (~12 days)! I can't imagine my libido dropping off that drastically that quickly!

 

SLACKER! I'm a little past that number and I'm only 20 years old! The only reason I've slowed down is because I now have to share a room with another guy during the regular semester. But, differing class schedules sometimes prove to be beneficial

LOL, one would think that perhaps that might be cause to crank them out even faster

I gotta say, I'm fully behind this one! It's a pity they don't enact it in the US as well.

That's ashame , I was already imagining a big gay rainbow made of logs floating down the river

Scary!

Scarier!

Wasn't there a very fine children's book about this? I wanna say The Gammage Cup (or something like that).

It's illegal to climb trees.

Laws in Israel

It is forbidden to bring bears to the beach.

 

It is forbidden to bring bears to the beach.

 

It is considered an offense to operate a mobile spay/neuter clinic - it is considered peddling.

 

 

 

You know what I find really interesting? That there actually had to be an issue to arise for laws like this to occur.

[Bondwriter]

It is forbidden to bring bears to the beach.

Damn! Now who's going to bearsit Barend while I go to Tiresias? And will I get his plane ticket refunded? I wish I'd known this before.

In California, starting with tax year 2007, Registered Domestic Partners will be required to file their state taxes as "Married Filing Jointly". This is, of course, despite the fact that gay and lesbian couples cannot be married in California. Also despite the fact that they will still have to file their Federal taxes as "Single". Should make developing the 2007 version of TurboTax very challenging for Intuit.
