    Does it matter to list the grade? Ego...ego....ego..... Hey, Dumbfuck, STFU and go back to admiring your pieces of flair.

    Are you trying to paraphrase Shaw? ...or simply claiming great integrity?
  3. In the meantime, soak it in cider.
  4. Remarkable.

    You've all been together for a sufficient length of time that your moon cycles have synchronized.
  6. I suppose this only reinforces the need for OLED screens. Congrats on supporting the lowest angle of this issue.
  7. What purpose is there in injecting into the discussion a racial element, without including issues of supporting relevance, except to portray yourself as a racist asshole? Any public meeting in a southern state is more than likely multi-ethnic/racial in attendees.
  8. Sure, one-year-old Down Syndrome babies are always fair game when their politician mothers use their condition as an example. Tear 'em up, douche.
  9. En route from SLC, Rock Springs (where you leave I-80) will be your last chance for sundries.

    it's only horrible if you're not huffing raw ether and amyl nitrates while adding yer own inanity to the spray-stream Is that from one of the synoptic Gospels? Maybe, Acts? Two separate questions, two separate thoughts. You made an erroneous inference...which, I'm guessing, is becoming a more frequent occurrence for you. Your, and Pope's, brains are becoming as soft as sacks of dead mice.

    First, foster more than a casual awareness of the player you posit upon, play jazz in an ensemble steady for a few years, re-read your statement then, wait for it. Your small appliance light bulb may burn a shine of cognition.

    Exactly, which is why Miles would have quickly grown disinterested in sport climbing, the musical equivalent of playing Come to Jesus in whole notes. Allow me to illustrate: Sport Climbing = Trad Climbing = Do you normally choose to so glibly hang your ass out to be cut by posing to pontificate on subjects you're ignorant of? Jesus, man, you're not at home where you can answer the door with one hand while scratching your crack through your thread-bare boxers with the other.

    Had climbing been of interest, the last thing thing Miles would have been is a sport climber and the venue he'd least have been interested in would be a gym - Miles was all about risking. And the mere idea that there is anything avante garde about the riskless entertainment climbing the suburban hordes have glommed onto is just the sort of self-fulfilling delusion that attracts them in the first place. I can't agree. My guess is he might have dabbled in all aspects of climbing as he did with music through the decades. One thing, he may have only been interested in ground-up, flash attempts...though, he may have had no problem with stepping or pulling on gear. Herbie said (& Chick told me the same) Miles was all for woodshedding, but he didn't want you to bring any pre-rehearsed moves/licks to the gig: you play the moment...often (for Miles), pre-dosed.

  15. There better be some bra burning if our countrywomen are to be truly free.
  16. Obama drags his kids to the crag.
  17. Well, maybe the guy's righteous and simply pissed at his wife for dragging his bratty kids along to the crag instead of leaving them in their posh, DVD-pulldown, auto-feeder-equipped, kennel with their other, canine kids.

    that's because your large intestine terminates at the top of your neck.
  19. so did yo mamma
  20. people loved dem Exploders
  21. Kids (or dogs) at the crag are required the same behaviors and responsibilities due their owners: Keep boisterousness to a low roar. Keep them off other climbers' gear. Properly dispose of their feces. Provide them with a pan of water. Spay and neuter.
  22. Which is the reciprocal of recent local cries for justice for Islamics.

    Got anything on the "closing of CIA prisons"? Some might soon be heard to claim "Soft on Terrorism" with his recent appointment of Arif Alikhan as Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Kareem Shora Appointed by DHS Secretary Napolitano on Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC). Both hail from American-Muslim organizations who have been described as apologists for and/or labeled Hamas, Hezbollah, and the PLO as "freedom fighters". Well then, the Obama campaign shouldn't have consulted GW and used his suggestions for campaign promises. It would seem GW isn't alone in shortfall in thinking ahead.
  24. gotta shorten the webbing daisychains somehow, someway, somewhere.
  25. So, your masters have been removing your spurs. That's several role-playing scenarios nixed for you, Lothario. What method did your lords use to emasculate?: 1. File down the tip of the spur with a dremmel or other grinding instrument. Since the spur continuously grows, like the toe nails, this procedure will have to be repeated as the spur tip grows out. 2. The spur can be removed when the rooster is still a chick. A veterinary uses electrocautery to hinder the growing cells of the spur. 3. Instead of cutting them, which is dangerous, you can take a pair of pliers, place them at the base of the spur near the leg, and twist until they come off. It removes the outer sheath of the spur leaving a much smaller spur underneath. I do this to my show roosters as it makes them look more “classy” to the judges’ eye. 4. The plier method will make them bleed, but I have never had one scream in pain yet and I’ve done thousands of roosters like this. Just put some water on the spur and dab some fresh household WHITE SUGAR on it. This will keep the spur clean while helping to clot the blood. The spur shell makes for unique jewelry/pendants too. 5. Wire cutters may also be used by snipping off the tip of the spur. Be careful not to snip off too much as this can cause profuse bleeding and a very unhappy rooster. Cutting too deep means that you’ve cut too far into the new soft spur that is found underneath the old cap. After snipping a metal file may be used to file the edges smooth. 6. This method is said to remove a spur permanently. This is done when the cockerel is 10-16 weeks old and the spur is 1/4 inch long. The spur is cut off close to the cockeral’s leg. After cutting the spur then rub potassium hydroxide into the wound to prevent profuse bleeding and also preventing the spur from regrowing again. 7. Another known method is using an electric calf dehorner and burning them off. This has been said that it is a permanent form of removal. With this method you must be extremely careful not to burn too much or too little. It’s said it doesn’t bother the rooster and he’s back to normal in a couple of days. 8. According to Stromberg’s Book of Poultry is the following: Place a hot baked potato on the spur and hold it there for a few minutes. Remove the baked potato, twist the spur and you will find it comes right off. There is no blood or mess. This technique really works well. 9. A Dremel Motor tool with a cut off wheel attachment may also be used. With this method one person holds the rooster’s leg and the other cutting the spur off just before the quik. There is the risk of cutting too close and profuse bleeding may result.
