  2. Come on people! It's the Onion.
  3. Gay Teen Worried that he Might be Christian "Sure, I looked at the Book of Leviticus once or twice—everybody has," Faber said. "We all experiment a little bit with that stuff when we're growing up. But I was just a kid. I didn't think it meant anything."

  5. You might want to go here to celebrate.
  6. Art is very, very, very, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY subjective. Some people think that Italian paintings are masterpieces. Others are horrified because Christ is being murdered in most of them. Much of it has to do with culture, context and values. Once when I was a small dyslexic kid visiting my older brother on a university campus I saw a modernistic building and read the plaque on the front: Gallery of Fine Rats. Naturally I asked, "What makes the Rats here any different from the rats back home?" It took me years to figure out why the adults were laughing their ass off.
  7. Scientist Denounced as Heretic, Witch- Burned at the Stake Dr. Ed Welsh was burned at the stake today by the Holy Church of the Global Warming Apocalypse, LLC. Dr. Welsh's paper on Atmospheric Dynamics and Climate Change was deemed heresy by the Holy See of Global Warming and the execution order was signed by Pope Al Gore. Given a chance to recant his heresy, Welsh refused. Welsh was excommunicated, his holy science decoder ring impounded and held without bond for his trial by peers that all agree with each other. All publications by Welsh and his property have been seized. His family has been sent for evaluation and possible re-education so that they can not pass on heresy. Welsh has been officially classified as a non-person. All copies of the journal have been seized and burned and the publisher has officially apologized. Science Publications of Rochester, Maryland was fined $250,000 for publishing heresy. In his confession and apology the President of the company is quoted: "We are just a publisher and not familiar with what is acceptable Church Cannon. From now on we will have a high priest consult with us in all of our articles accepted for publication. Those that propose heresy like the witch will be forwarded to the Church for immediate denunciation." Anyone that still has a copy of the journal is urged to turn it in to the publisher or the Church and submit to re-education. Failure to do so will result in swift and severe prosecution. ______________________________________________________ We have learned so very little in our brief time on this planet that perhaps we don't really deserve to stay.
  8. Chesty Puller is a legend in the Marine Corp. He started off as an enlisted man at 17 at the very end of WWI and fought all the way to Korea. He made it all the way to General. He was a soldiers soldier. He never ate until his men ate and had the same stuff they did. At forty he could walk or run teenagers into the dirt. He was one tough son of a bitch. At Guadalcanal in 1942 he took a six shell fragments and only went to relieve aid after the battle was over and all of his wounded men had been tended to. One of the shell fragments was too close to his spine to remove anywhere short of a major hospital so he told the surgeons to leave it in. He ended up the most decorated Marine in history. BTW- he fought the legendary Sandino rebels in Nicaragua in the thirties. It turns out that the idealistic revolutionaries were simply horse and chicken thieves and raped any women that they caught alone. Puller ran them out of the country and was considered a hero of the people for decades until Ortega rewrote history.
  9. Nominate the national commercial that you find most annoying. Please- no local adds. We are making fun of professional idiots, not amateurs (although some local car sales ads are right down there). When the nominations are closed, I'll put up a poll and we'll vote on it. My nomination: The raisin bran crunch idiots Can you even conceive of a life so empty that a person could get this fired up about a cereal that taste like catshit and cardboard? The mind boggles. It's a mouth full of awesome! Liar. That's what they say about me. :king:
  10. LOL... he only takes Italian loafers. He's obviously been in my closet and come up empty.

    Happy Sunday

    I go through this from time to time with my friend girls. Yes- I do have a few. I'm the guy they can talk too about their cars that isn't out to make a profit off them. I tell them that if I wouldn't date the guys they are going out with, they shouldn't. Why is it that the nicest girls from good families fall for crystal freak bikers with teeth that look like they came out of a 50s horror B-movie?
  12. They have us surrounded? Those poor dumb bastards. Now we can attack in all directions. General Chesty Puller, USMC at the Chosin Reservoir in 1951

    Desperate & Needy

    Drewbie Rules!
  20. I got a call today. Some idiot on a bulldozer had sliced a fiber cable and they needed somebody who could patch it up fast. The job turned out to be a misery. It wasn't the cable. It was cut twice leaving a gap of two and a half feet. It wasn't the number of fiber strands. That could have been a lot worse. It was only 24 pairs. It wasn't that the hole was muddy and wet. It wasn't. It was frozen. It was the coldest damn hole I've ever been in. I got there at 1 this afternoon and go to work. In a job like this, you have to terminate both ends and patch them together and test the cable. It's very fine work. You need to use your fingers... and feel your fingers. It went slow. It took me over an hour a piece to terminate the cable ends. It took me another hour to patch the two new cables together. Testing them went badly. I couldn't feel my fingers and had to re-terminate a number of strands that didn't work right. It was getting dark when I put a metal case on the spliced cable and called it a day. I left the site after five. The construction crew was happy that I could get it fixed quickly. Maybe I should have strung it out but it was just too damned cold. I made my bucks the old fashioned way today: I did something no one else wanted to do. I went into the coldest hole in Dixie and came out the winner. :king: And... went home and soaked in a hot bath.
  21. Happy birthday Lacey. You and Chris should try out your birthday suits in celebration.
  22. As a matter of economy and practicality, I suggest that everyone find someone to keep them warm at night.
  23. Is anyone hitting up a reunion anytime soon? NO. At this point anyone I would like to see is dead and all that is left are people I'd like to kill. Best I just move on.
  24. I've got an old flip-phone but I want an android... one with a phaser.
