  1. What do you expect? An endless war is great for the economic health of the military-industrial complex. Really, what's 30-plus-thousand lives in exchange for kickin' returns on your Halliburton stock? A natural staging area for our upcoming war on Iran is just icing on the cake.

     

    Here's to 30k more! bigdrink.gif

  2. I think that this summer may well be even worse than last summer in terms of gas prices. There's a slew of regulatory changes involving additives that's about to go into force, which look set to overwhelm the ability of US refineries to retool in time. Throw in the fact that the US can't produce enough ethanol to meet the new requirements, and the fact that there's a pretty significant tarriff/duty wall protecting the US ethanol biz, and you've got the recipe for a megacluster, no matter what happens to crude prices.

     

    Don't forget the fact that there's no restriction on oil companies arbitrarily raising prices to line their pockets while thoroughly fucking the consumer! Yay, free market!

  3. please refrain from using boulder and route in the same sentence.

     

    Please refrain from using "boulder" and "route" in the same sentence when requesting that I refrain from using "boulder" and "route" in the same sentence.

     

    Thank you.

  4. Backstrokezilian Pool-Jitsu?

     

    "No hits below the swimsuit-area, no swimfin-locks, and no grabbing by the goggles! Alright, let's keep it clean! FIGHT!"

     

    "Looks like Gladys is moving into position for a kickboard-assisted takedown, Bob."

     

    "Indeed, Steve, but Sylvia here has been training hard at the Y, and I think her swift doggy-paddling technique is going to set her up for an effective counter with the noodle!"

     

    "Oh, my! It's Gladys with the water-in-the-eyes splash, and she's got Sylvia in the half-guard! This does not look good for the up-and-comer from Willowmeadowsbrookhillsacres Nursing Home!"

  5. The Great John toilet is just the ticket!

    Witness the difference in comfort offered by the larger seat!

    Great Scott! hellno3d.gif

     

    The helpful animation was a bit more than I ever needed to see. Some kind of scatological-logistics reflected ceiling plan...ugh! cry.gif

  6. I think US Outdoor might sell them. It's just a State Parks annual pass, so it's not just good at Smith (but who goes to any other state parks? grin.gif ).

     

    Used to be you could buy them at the hardware store in Terrebonne, and I think Redpoint may have started carrying them recently, although I'm not 100% sure on that. And, like the previous person said, if you catch the parking permit-checker person, they have them for sale, too.

  7. Funny. Apparently hospitals are now including bariatric accommodations when they remodel or expand (expand--ha ha). Must be a bummer not to fit through a 3-0 door, and to break the toilet off the wall when you sit down.

  8. It's interesting how cj001f has this link at the tip of his fingers... hellno3d.gif

    Bookmarked in my "Groups dedicated to f$%^ing innocents in the ass" category between the Ayn Rand institue and the Cato Institute wave.gif

    BOO-YAH!

  9. Today I walked up West Tiger III, 3 miles up 3 miles down.

    Yesterday after work I went to Tiger and sauntered around a bit. I thought of you and decided I might refer to Tiger as Broken Back Mountain if that's okay with you. grin.gif

     

    I can't believe it took two pages for someone to make the obvious joke. Sheesh!

  10. If you wait another week, I will have finished my project of sport bolting a direct line down the south side of the mountain. I will be rapelling down with a 2,000m rope, and installing pickets, bolts, and ice screws (as appropriate) every six feet. It's going to be a real treat. Alpensport is the new mixed climbing!
