    I hear that's going to be the hottest page ever for some people... Not ME, of course. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  4. My two favorites are "aloha" and "mahalo"...they sound nice, and I like the deeper sentiments behind them. And with apologies to Tom Robbins, there are three others I'm not sure are words, but he called them "the only true mantras": Yum, Yuck, and of course, Yikes!

  5. Crap, what was I thinking? How about this? http://thebestofhypnosis.com/dual/voodoodoll.htm Sometimes I get very disturbed when I do Google searches...and sometimes, well, I'm just disturbed. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  6. Well, I have two suggestions: 1) A nice weekend away at a lovely coastal B&B. 2) A card from Hoops and YoYo. Oh, and bring all that other stuff people are suggesting, but don't go to Half Moon Bay this weekend...Lynn and I will be there, and we don't want to be disturbed...we'll be busy doing the disturbing.

  7. Many years ago I was the PG&E meter reader for the Winchester house, and it was quite the adventure finding every meter. I got lost one time simply going through a door and turning right to get to the meter...by the time I turned around, I swear the door had moved to a different wall! Took me 10 minutes to find my way out that time, and I thought about leaving a trail of breadcrumbs the next time I went in there. Oh, and just to combat thread drift, Number One and Number Five almost look like they could be the same building. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  8. Yeah, but Robert Duvall plays Boo Radley, who saves Scout and her brother at the end. That's a hero, right? Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  9. As far as old B&W movies, it's definitely in my top three. Got to give the top spot to "To Kill A Mockingbird", though. Gregory Peck in his best role ever, and a very young Robert Duvall as the hero. What could be better? Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  10. Well, my favorite thread in here for a day a while back was this one...does it offend your delicate sensibilities so much that you feel the need to berate all the posters who voted "No"? Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  11. Ah, one more step down the long, slow slide to infinity, huh? Well, you can at least take solace in the fact that even though you're OLD, I'm really old. Happy Birthday, Sean! Mike & Lynn Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
  12. A few years ago, a friend asked me what the worst part of doing tandems was (he was about to get his rating). I said "You know those cold winter days when your nose is running, and you end up with snot all over your goggles?"...he nodded, and I continued with "Wait until it's not YOUR snot".

  13. ***I can certainly appreciate your love for "your Lindsay", but you making it seem like she's more of a "blessing" than any other kid is getting old.*** I would never argue that one child is any more of a blessing than another, but "blessings" are sometimes hard to define. My niece just turned 17. She was born with with a herniated diaphragm, and needed emergency surgery to correct it. She is developmentally disabled (aka: retarded), has very little hearing due to multiple congenital birth defects, nearly died from acute appendicitis three years ago, and has had roughly 25 surgeries to correct problems with her eyes, ears, and throat, and facial reconstruction surgery to correct jaw alignment. She suffers from Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, and has been raised most of her life by my elderly parents, who still have custody of her. My sister is back in her life after 10 years of sobriety. I have spent most of the last 17 years helping raise her, and I'd have to say the biggest blessing for me has been the changes I went through. I used to be a short-tempered, suffer-no-fool-gladly asshole, and helping raise Tavara has given me a gift of patience and understanding that I would never have found without her in my life. She is smart (knows and remembers animals better than most zoology students, and that's a quote from a zoology student), funny, a huge San Jose Sharks fan, wants to marry a Jonas Brother (God help us all), and can swim and boogie board as well as her uncle. She and all of us may have been spared a lot of pain and suffering if they hadn't found that herniated diaphragm in time, but I'm pretty fucking glad they did. Her survival changed my life for the better, and all the love and caring we share is really just the icing on the cake after that. Of course, the other nieces I have on my side of the family are: another 17-year-old on probation for drug possession and assault, and a 12-year-old who is so spoiled her unemployed dad borrows money from his dad to fly her cross-country for concerts and Disney tweener meet-n-greets. Maybe Tavara just seems cool by comparison. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

    I still have a pink furry boa hanging on my room divider. That pink fuzzy shit gets all over the place, so I assume that's just her way of continuing to fuck with people, and spread the Byron love.
  16. All the toons listed so far have been pretty great, but my most recent favorites were Dexter's Laboratory and Courage the Cowardly Dog. Dexter - a little hit and miss, but some of the best satires of kung fu and anime I've ever seen (they did a "Speed Racer" parody that had me literally rolling on the floor). Courage - just one of the wierdest cartoons I've ever seen. And Family Guy...guess it's like Will Ferrell, either you love it or hate it, and I just think it's kinda over-rated.

  17. Sorry about the job, Krisanne...we heard about it from Monkeyboy on Saturday. And I always liked this phrase: "Be careful in the workplace, as the toes you step on today may belong to the person whose ass you need to kiss tomorrow".

    Mah babey!!!

    Congrats, dude! Thanks God he looks more like Mom, but you guys do pretty good work. [

  21. Damn, this thread makes me sad, now that I've decided I'm a retired TI due to shoulder issues. But I was thinking about this yesterday, and there are sure a few that stand out: - My dad, on his 78th, 79th, and 80th birthdays.
  22. If it's a guy, ask them to Rochambeau for the tab...you're bound to win. If it's a woman, I got nothin', unless you want to challenge them to an oil wrestling match. If you don't like those options, then just tell them why you're mad...before you've had any alcohol. That doesn't tend to make the argument any more coherent.
  23. "Fluke" or "I know why the winged whale sings" by Christopher Moore. Very interesting conceptually, and the guy is a freakin' hilarious writer. I'm planning on picking up all his books when I find them. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
