Today is 3/14/15 Time to celebrate 3.1415 Think I'll go bake a pie. My father always had a knack for bad jokes and he used to tell one about a bumpkin learning math. The country boy took issue with the equation, "Pi R squared," quipping "Pie are round. Cornbread are square!" Of course, the joke makes no sense in the South, where we know the best cornbread is made in a round skillet.

Thanks, ever so much.

My conclusion is that men who measure their penises in centimeters have a big opinion of themselves.

Hi, Joen. Welcome to GA. Tell us a bit more about yourself. Mike

I appreciate your comments, although I do not agree completely. Problem is, when you receive a specific threat, it's a little late for training, getting a permit, and purchasing a gun. Patience is a virtue. So is preparedness.

Hang in there, Delaware. My class just had its 55th year high school reunion.

Drak is right on all counts. No Facebook for me. San Francisco over Chicago any day. Great post!

Welcome, Cynus. Great to have you here!

It's a sunny 32F here at 3:48 pm. Nothing more than a few flurries so far this winter. Our average annual snowfall is about 6 inches spread out over 6 days.

According to http://www.numbeo.com/gas-prices/city_result.jsp?country=Denmark&city=Copenhagen, one liter of gasoline costs DKK 11.30 in Copenhagen, about USD 6.49 per gallon. Wow!

While it's obvious to all that gasoline prices have started back up, there's a very good reason why they may decline again soon: From Bloomberg: From Wall Street on Parade:

Yes...very helpful. Does anyone have experience with the AVG free antivirus program?

Thanks for the good info, Drak.

Yep. The fun times are over. Gas prices are on the rise.

Welcome back, John!

I agree with Gandalf. Just stars and bars over the top of the rainbow flag.

Reckon any NFL coaches remember their freshmen chemistry? Of course they should have known. Ignorance of the law is no defense.

Well, I did encourage you to judge for yourself. Please forgive me for exercising the same privilege. I'm guessing 11 out of 12 balls being deflated was neither coincidence nor divine intervention.

While we revel in the bargain price of gasoline, there are others who are raking in the dough...the wholesale distributors of fuels whose profit margins have ballooned. You may be interested in the man who is now the wealthiest elected official in the US, Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam... FORBES: HASLAM WORTH $2 BILLION THE RICHEST POLITICIAN IN AMERICA Gov. Bill Haslam is now worth an estimated $2 billion, making him the richest elected official in the country, according to a new analysis by Forbes. The business publication notes declining gas prices have helped Pilot Flying J company, the Haslam family business that does $38 billion in sales. Lower prices for a barrel of gas can translate to better profit margins for a retail gas company. That means more money per barrel for Flying J, and more money for Haslam, who owns 15 percent of the company, according to Forbes. A lot more money. Since August, Forbes says, Haslam’s worth has gone from $980 million to an estimated $2 billion.
