I have.....and I think it's a civil rights song....but I haven't written out the lyrics so I'm not quite sure.

I AM NOT KIDDING!! This song has to have a reason...and not just to make Rick laugh.

[jet]

What does it mean to YOU?

I'm more interested in what it means to others. I have no mind of my own. I'm a sheep not a shepherd :)) Baa-baa...

Microsoft has officially gone Troll.

My credit card expired last month (credit cards do have expiration dates) and I've already gotten three e-mails from Microsoft about my XBox 360 and the impending doom which will befall me if they don't get my new credit card info like right now.

I'm less than completely panicked by the Phantasy Star online subscription expiring. I haven't played that game one time in the last six months and they're acting like if I don't act right now, the game I haven't played in the better part of a year will stop working like I'd even notice or care. :rolleyes:

[Fire Watch]

[JDGreen]

Jeez... They're worse than the government.. Pay a little, get nothing.. Pay nothing, get hassled...

[gdoane]

Jeez... They're worse than the government.. Pay a little, get nothing.. Pay nothing, get hassled...

Nobody is worse than the government.

I was serving active duty aboard the USS Boone, a Petty Officer Third Class in the middle of the Persian Gulf, when our GENIUSES IN GOVERNMENT sent me a letter telling me that now that I was 18 and male I had to register for the draft.

What the Heck were they going to do, draft me and put me in the Navy? They sent this letter to a FLEET POST OFFICE ADDRESS!! To a COMMISSIONED UNITED STATES NAVY SHIP!

What the heck, did those moron bureaucrats think I was on a PLEASURE CRUISE?

ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY and the Draft Board is sending me threatening letters telling me I'd best register for the draft. For what? So they can put me through Boot Camp, give me a uniform and stick me on a ship in a WAR ZONE? Been there. Done that. Don't need the free concert tickets, thanks you morons in the Selective Service Jackass Moron department.

[Fire Watch]

I got the same letter Gene. I enlisted in the Corps at 17, during boot camp I turned 18. My letter informing me I needed to register for seletive service arrived at boot camp..my DI's had a great time with it. That little piece of government spam cost me a lot of sweat that day.

I enlisted at 17 too, and I kind of figured the Government knew I was in the service because as a crypto tech working on Top Secret communications electronics I had gone through a rather invasive background check that resulted in phone calls from interviewed acquaintances and friends asking me "what in the Hell did you DO??"

It's ridiculous that one hand doesn't know what the other is doing. The Selective Service is probably just looking at 18 years old, male, not registered and sending out their jackass nasty-grams even to active duty military because their job is completely mindless envelope stuffers.

I'm waiting for the coffee to finish brewing and the sheetrock guys to get here.

[JDGreen]

Good morning, Leigh..

[goodlife]

morning Gary....what are you up to today?

[gdoane]

now weenie...had that been a game that you WERE playing regularly..you probably would have panicked....at least a little...LOL

Not really, because I've been totally turned off of on-line gaming for a number of reasons:


Rude people who cuss up a blue storm into the headset. You don't cuss at total strangers! Especially not if you're a kid.
The numbers aren't there to support on-line games. "Dirt" for the Xbox 360 only has about 100,000 gamers in the national rankings and that's not enough people to have evenly matched competitors available all the time.
Cheating is frequent and spoils the whole experience. Cheaters actively find ways around anti-cheat patches and troll the games to ruin them, and they usually succeed.I like gaming, but I don't like on-line because the people are total jerks unworthy of my company.

[melinda]

Good Morning, All. :hug:

[JDGreen]

Ah, not much.. I gotta go to Wenatchee later to do some shopping.. That's about it..

[gdoane]

I'm waiting for the coffee to finish brewing and the sheetrock guys to get here.

They have sheetrock now? I've heard of light rock, heavy metal rock, punk rock, but never sheetrock. Is that like rock you listen to in bed?

Naahhh... that would be bedrock.

It should be. Fred and Wilma Flintstone were the first couple on American Television to ever be shown in bed together.

Bedrock and all.

I don't remember that episode.

I think it aired before you were born. If you did see it, it would have been a rerun.

my sister, after 26 years of marriage, is getting a divorce. :(
I'm going to go visit her for a few days and hopefully cheer her up. (She lives on the Alabama/Georgia line) from there I'm going to Florida to spend my best friend's birthday w/ her. We've known each other for 37 years now!! my daughter is going w/ me........

[melinda]

Could you pay some of mine ?

hey, if you stuck a few in between mine, I'd probably never even notice. :))

[melinda]

HA! My husband has decided he's going to take over paying bills...WHAT A JOKE! He says it will help him better understand where the money goes. OK, not a problem...do whatever you want. After he makes this big dramatic proclamation he sits there for a little while and says....Umm, what bills do we have? :rolleyes:

Leigh, besides puppy sitting, what else are you doing today?

Well since I have these sheetrock guys coming I'm pretty much stuck home for the better part of the day so I'm going to vaccuum the pool and cut the yard and MAYBE work in my flowerbeds depending on how hot it is and how lazy I'm feeling. lol
I told KK I'd take her shopping tonight for school supplies and uniforms.
The junior high has switched over to uniforms this year and this goes to show you just how little attention I pay to these things....the elementary school and middle school uniforms were the same. Khaki bottoms and white or navy tops. I assumed it was going to be the same way for the junior high. So I ordered her 2 white shirts and 3 navy shirts from J. Crew. Come to find out they can't wear navy....it has to be ROYAL blue. :rolleyes: Of course, when the package came in, she tried the stuff on, it fit, we threw all of the packaging away.

[Fire Watch]

I may hit 37K today..

Well he never has either and I bet you this won't last long because he has no clue. We have separate accounts although I added him to my account so I could access certain bills online that are in his name only. I've got lots of stuff that is on auto pay and is just deducted from my account each month. He HATES that. What I would do is take one of his checks each month and deposit it into my account (which is his account too, right?) to pay bills with and he can do whatever he wants with the other one. All of our bills are paid out of my account...or they were.
So I sent him an email giving him the login information to everything he could possibly need....a list of all of the bills and how I pay them and the average amount. So he says to me...I want all of that automatic debit stuff taken off. I want everything to come here as a paper bill. (What's a paper bill? :confused:) That annoyed me. I said...you want it undone..you figure out how to do it. I do what works and everything gets paid and is taken care of.

Our bills are going to be sooooo screwed up it's not even funny. I gave him ONE reminder and that's all he's going to get. This is how stupid this is....I said...oh, btw...did you pay ---?? he was like...huh? I didn't know I was supposed to.

MEN!

[Fire Watch]

yeah?

[gdoane]

I bit my tongue and it hurts!

I've done that before and it messes up the way food tastes for a while.

Mick Jagger actually bit the tip of his tongue off during a basketball game in school. That's why he's so skinny. The tip of your tongue is what senses sweets and Mick Jagger doesn't have a tip of his tongue anymore. He bit it off when he was a teenager.

The tip of your tongue tastes sweet things, the back of your tongue tastes sour things, and the edges taste salty things. So, if you injure your tongue then it makes things taste strange because you'll concentrate the food away from the injury onto a specialized taste bud center that it's not normally for and food will taste sourer or saltier or something depending on where you bit it.

[melinda]

allright..the stupid little dog just almost got run over..:rolleyes:

oh crap....that would not look good on your pupping sitting resume. Of course it would keep people from asking you next time. ;)

[goodlife]

Weenie...you know the strangest things. Did you just look that up or did you really know all of that off the top of your head?

[gdoane]

allright..the stupid little dog just almost got run over..:rolleyes:

I'm looking over my dead dog, Rover,
Who I hit with the power mower.
One leg is missing, the other is gone,
A third leg is scattered all over the lawn.
No need explaining the one remaining
Is spinning on the car port floor...
I'm looking over my dead dog, Rover,
Who I over-looked before!

I'm looking over my dead dog, Rover,
Who I hit with the power mower.
My dog's not eating, he no longer barks;
He hit the propeller and turned into sparks.
No need explaining, there's no dog remaining;
He's a part of the lawn you see...
I'm looking over my dead dog, Rover,
Who I sent to Eternity!

yeah I brought him out into the front yard to potty and the sheetrock guys drove up so I was saying hello and all that good stuff..kinda forgot about the dog. Next thing I know I heard brakes screeching and there's Deuce in the middle of the street nearly splattered by a mini van.

Weenie...you know the strangest things. Did you just look that up or did you really know all of that off the top of your head?

Look what up? I knew about the Mick Jagger tongue from listening to Paul Harvey "The Rest Of The Story" and I knew about the spots on the tongue from a lesson in Boy Scouts for a merit badge.

I'm a wealth of useless information.

I had a date once to see this play called "The Nutcracker Suite" (you may have heard of that one, it's pretty famous) and one of the characters is a one-eyed toymaker. After the play I remarked to the girl I was with that toymaker was an unusual profession for a one-eyed man because he'd have no depth perception. She looked at me like I was nuts and I had to explain stereoscopic vision to her. She was like 24 years old (I was about 26) and had a full-on college education and she did not know you need to use both eyes for depth perception.

If you want to demonstrate it, take two pencils, one in each hand, close one eye and try to touch the erasers of the pencils together. If you can do it, then it's pure luck. It's very easy to do with both eyes open because then you have depth perception. With one eye closed, no way.

It amazes me to no end how many people don't know that.

I know it because I know how cattle guards work. Cows don't have stereoscopic vision. Their eyes are situated far apart so they have great peripheral vision to see any approaching predators, but they have NO stereoscopic vision and NO depth perception whatsoever so when they see the gaps in a cattle guard, even though it's only a few inches deep it's as good as the Grand Canyon to them and they won't step on it because they can't tell how deep that hole really is.

I'm a font of useless trivia. That and six dollars will get me a Latte' at Starbucks.

I have a place for all of Earth's furry friends. Right on my plate between the mashed potatoes and peas.

I'm a natural omnivore, my front teeth are designed for ripping meat and I'll certainly use them for that. My brainpower makes me the deadliest natural predator on Earth. There's no creature on this planet that I cannot kill and fry for my breakfast.

I got cussed out by a squirrel last week. I hit a golf ball quite badly and it went into a tree smacking the heck out of a squirrel nest and the squirrel was not happy with me.

I'm looking at this squirrel giving me attitude and I'm like "Dude... you maybe weigh two pounds soaking wet and I've got a golf club in my hands could send you a hundred yards off a tee. Shaddup already. You're the fool chose to set up shop on a golf course!"

I do love animals. I consider KFC an adoption center.

Fried squirrel is delicious. It goes great in an omelet.

[gdoane]

Fried squirrel is delicious. It goes great in an omelet.

Do you know what an omelet is? It's a French Taco. You can put anything in an omelet and it's still an omelet so long as there's an egg involved somewhere along the line.

I was camping and we had camping omelets. I'd never seen this done before but basically you put a big old cauldron with gallons of water over the campfire to boil up good, and then you break eggs into ziplock baggies along with peppers, onions, ham or whatever and then zipper it up, shake it good and toss the thing into the boiling water. A few minutes later, you use some tongs to get the baggie back out and you have yourself a camper's omelet.

Like most French inventions, omelets are bad for you. High cholesterol, yellow, and no good in a fight. Ever seen an omelet in a food fight? That's not going to happen because it's French. French don't fight.

France actually makes a Jet Fighter aircraft. It's called the "Mirage". That's because if you ever do see a French pilot in a fight, it's definitely a Mirage that you're seeing.

I've made camp omelets before..using whatever we caught or gathered and eggs..the best was fish, eggs, wild onions, pecans, and wild morel mushrooms.

You're either wiser than me, braver than me, or crazier than me because no way in Hell would I be picking mushrooms and eating them.

I know there's a method, that pointy tops are poison and round tops are good, but I really do want to find a better way to die.

Old age is a cool way to die. Man dies at a hundred years old, you gotta respect that. Dead from eating a bad mushroom just doesn't carry the same aura. You got killed by a plant?? Time is actually a formidable foe, but getting killed by something you could take out with a lawnmower is just ridiculous.

You are mistaken sir, the mirage is created when the french pilot engages his afterburner to escape combat. The fumes from the jet engine combined with the gas from the back of his full pants combine to create a mirage.

I don't rightly know myself. I consider myself to be a Conservative George Carlin type, biting dry humor, easily misunderstood but stone cold funny if you can get it.

One of these days, I'm probably going to have another background check about me just because I work on radio systems that involve FBI, Postal Inspectors, DEA, Border Patrol and things like that and I really do pity the fool that finds my posting history and sees 30,000+ posts.

He'd be like OH MY GOD!!! This guy has written more crap than Leo Tolstoy and William Shakespeare COMBINED and I've got to sift through this??

I've got a top secret clearance. I currently work on crypto equipment with a DES class encryption scheme which would be considered weaponry were it exported from the USA.

I've passed background checks before. Several times. I'm basically a good guy, but the older you get, the more history you accumulate and I truly pity the investigators now who find out their guy has been making ten posts a day for the past six years.

OK..so this is the second day in a row that one of my cats has brought me a dead bird...the first one was found on my dog's blanket, pretty much devoured with the exception of the feathers and a couple of bones. The second one was found, completely intact minus a few feathers (that were on the walls so I know the dang thing WAS STILL ALIVE WHEN IT WAS BROUGHT INSIDE) on the tile so at least it was easier to clean up. That's four dead birds in a week mind you. They bring them in through the dog door.
