  1. Bummer man. Give us a description, maybe you'll get lucky and someone will spot it. I hope the Russian's haven't got it. If so, it will next be seen driving around Vladivostock.

    Yeah! Classic JayB.
  3. How many did you get today? I got 14. Whoopee!
  4. Plastic boots on slab...interesting!
  5. So what is it like? Did you use boots or boots with crampons?
  6. The way I've got it figured, Clark is going to be on the Democratic Ticket one way or another. If he isn't nominated, he is almost certain to be the Vice Presidential running mate.
  7. Dodge ball? We used to play a game called "British Tackle Dog" in which every player (read "student body") lined up on both sidelines of a football field. One person is selected to be on the field at the beginning (I'm not sure how he is selected). Then all the players commence to run from one sideline to the other, the sideline being "safe". The guy in the middle tackles anyone he can get his hands on. Once a person is tackled, he joins the guy in the middle and the ranks of tacklers grows. The odds of getting across become increasingly lopsided until there is one guy left trying to run across with 100 guys trying to tackle him. He is usually the fastest SOB in the school and when they finally get him they dogpile the poor bastard. Needless to say, the school administration wasn't all that keen on our sport. They'd stamp it out, but it would rear its ugly head at least once every year. How about heated car seats? How wuss is that? You have to have your ass electrically heated or you won't buy the car?
  8. Let's hear some specific examples like the one above.

    Speaking of guitar, I'm going to put in a plug for Martin Taylor at Dimitriou's Jazz Alley . He's really, really good.
  10. Klenke, if you want to pretend that lummox or has stolen your password, you have to first remove and discard the two Shift Keys from your keyboard. Your spelling is closer to wrlwind or Dave_Schuldt however.
  11. Ken Schram Says So. Since I am a bit distrustful of Ken, I tried to get a little closer to the horse's mouth and came up with this. Any other examples?
  12. Y'all see this one? Man dies after going over cliff on snowboard
  13. Iain is still trying to win the Post like Catbirdseat contest.
  14. The thing I like about Fairweather is he likes to talk issues and doesn't make personality the issue by hurling insults. It keeps everybody in the game. I respect the guy.
  15. Why would I hate a beach? I like the beach.
  16. If your mind were taxed by the government rather than your income, you would pay a very low rate indeed... sorry, I just couldn't help myself.
  17. This is the most shocking expose ever. Who would have thought that eating at MacDonalds was unhealthy.
  18. This isn't a very liberal view to take, but I think all taxation should be levied on individuals. Corporations should not be taxed. That leads to double taxation and it leads to competition among nations to cut corporate taxes. Income tax should be levied by the country in which the income is earned.

    And so it is. I couldn't count them until I'd downed the third cup of coffee.
  20. Don't confuse income tax with corporate tax.
  21. I don't
  22. I think trask has found a way around the IP ban.
  23. A friend of mine made a cogent remark about Clark. She said that with Clark, all we have to go on are his recent statement about what his policies will be. In the case of someone like Kerry we have his long and consistent voting record in Congress with which to judge him.

    No, man, you're not THAT messed up. This guitar really does have four necks. Does it look like I have four heads?
  25. So tell us more about this park thing.
