    StuPiD LaWS

    "Waldron Island: --No structure shall contain more than two toilets that use potable water for flushing. -San Juan County Ordinance NO. 7 -1995 (Passed June 7,1995) " This might not be so StuPiD. Fresh water is scarce in the islands. Some of the smaller islands have to bring in water by ferry. I'm sure BillyGoat knows more than I do.
  2. What are the two doctors discussing, a cam-ectomy?

    Got Parasite?

    Dairy isn't very good for you anyway. Adults aren't meant to drink milk. I could easily live without it. There are all sorts of yummy sherbets to take the place of ice cream.
  4. You took the words right out of my mouth.
  5. When I was in junior high I read just about all of HP Lovecrafts books. I think my mother tossed them all out when I moved out. I've never been drawn to that genre since. It was very dark and foreboding stuff. Doom was always waiting for us all. A host of unspeakably evil beings was trapped on the other side waiting for someone to let them into our world. I believe one of HPL's stories was made into a movie- The Shuttered Room. As I remember it there was no Cthulu in the movie. The monster was of a more ordinary sort.
  6. Trask has always been invisible on the Who's Online screen, but he's not a lurker because he posts. You can pretty much assume that if he's at home, which he pretty much always is, that he's logged in.
  7. Slip on some Yaktrax over your rock shoes. I have a friend who says these work over tennies.

    Got Parasite?

    It must be that most male climbers are infected.
  9. What you are really saying is that Jon and Timmy should make it so that no one can hide their identity. That is, remove the option "Do you want to be visible on the 'Who's Online' screen? " I see your point.
  10. Thank you for pointing that out.
  11. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

    Got Parasite?

    Whew! I thought you were going to say you got the infection from the Haagen Daz. Sounds like you developed a lactose intolerance. Maybe you were always lactose intolerant, but having not consumed dairy for a prolonged period, your body lost its abilty to adjust. Also, the antibiotics may have killed off organisms needed to digest lactose.

    Wait just a cotton-picking minute! What happened to your Haagen Daz? Tell, tell, tell.

    WTF??

    They've got street shoes that look like bowling shoes. Then why not faux rock shoes? If you have the look, that is all that matters, right? By the way, this the about the twentieth thread with the subject of "WTF". WTF, is not very descriptive.
  15. Courtenay's Thread didn't actually go very far for some reason. The website www.heelspurs.com is the most comprehensive resource I have found on the web.
  16. MisterE, Rabbit-Proof Fence was a good movie. I enjoyed it.
  17. Thread with Dane's Good Pictures
  18. The lake IS shallow, but you will note that the boat is a proa (outrigger canoe) which draws less than six inches of water.
  19. If I recall there was an old thread on plantar fasciitis. I had it for three years from running. Orthotics cured it. For some people it can become an intractable problem. I expect that your case will go away quickly because it was brought on by an acute insult which is unlikely to be repeated. I used to work summers painting. If you are spending any time at all on ladders I suggest wearing a stiff pair of boots.
  20. Where's Dane?

    Crap Movies

    Yes and Troy was popular back in 1250 BC, but those goddam Greeks ruined everything. It goes to show you everything comes back into style if you are willing to wait long enough.
  22. Looks like they'd make a darn good weapon too, if you knew how to throw them just right.
  23. Seems like at this stage of your recovery, you need a trainer or a physical therapist. You need to build strength and you need to build resistance to re-injury by excercising the right muscle groups. Having said that, I'm no expert by any means.
  24. Nevermind, as in Nevermind Wall.
