  1. I love curling. Watching curling bruised my brain. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  2. Doesn't sound unusual at all for any well balanced, healthy 13 year old, its what they do. Oh yeah, and just when you finally get a handle on this outrage, she'll come up with another as or even more shocking . Just remember, patience is a virtue................ especially when you have no other choice. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  3. Honest to god, when I applied for Social Security last year the only identification they wanted to see was my driver's license and my DD 214. I didn't have with me nor was I ever asked to show a Social Security Card. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  4. There is a certain level beyond which the average person doesn't need to go. It depends on what career you plan on pursuing. An English major probably doesn't need to take calculus. However, far too many people don't have even a basic level of understanding of algebra and geometry and that simply baffles me. Their excuse is usually something like "but I'm not good at math" which in my mind is essentially saying "but I'm illiterate." I'm not talking about anything all that advanced either, just the kind of stuff you'd grossly cover in the (for me) 9th grade. I don't get it. Neither do math teachers who can't fathom that there are people who can't understand WTF they're talking about. Those same teachers that have no clue as to how communicate to anyone except the ones that "get" WTF they're talking about and just brush the others off as morons.

  5. Peyton Manning did get to live his father's dream of throwing the touchdown pass that won New Orleans their first Super Bowl. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  6. I think Pete Townsend actually got the fingers of his picking hand stuck in the strings on one of the windmills, at least that's the way it sounded and he did have a slight "oops" grin on his face afterward. Roger Daltry lost the beat on part of his harmonica solo. Pretty sad for the most part. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  7. I just unfriended my brother and sister in law who I love dearly but can't stomach any more of the ultra conservative, right wing, lunatic fringe bullshit he suscribes to that shows up on my wall every few hours. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  8. Two words; boiled peanuts. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  9. Does that ever bring back memories. The first automobile wreck I was ever involved in was with one of those. Backed a large 1959 GMC panel truck completely over the rear end of it. Talk about a pissed off AH owner, he'd only had it two months and it was a high school graduation present from his dad. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  10. There's a dog that I see frequently that is paralyzed in the rear legs but does amazing things with a set of wheels, I'm not kidding, that support his hind quarters. He seems very happy and nothing seems to stop him from enjoying life. he even swims without the wheels. If it were one of my dogs, before i put it down, I would investigate this possibility. Sorry this happened and am hoping it turns out for the best. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  11. I have a 94 Ford F-150 that I got a recall notice on about a year ago regarding a glitch in the cruise control system that would cause a fire in certain circumstances. Also had a late 80s Chevy Astrovan that without any input to the system, the cruise control would suddenly engage and floorboard the accelerator. The GM "fix" for this was to just disable the cruise control system, forever. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  12. The flying version of the Chevy Volt. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  13. With references to RIGHT, USA and BASTARDS its probably only a matter of time before Rhys gives his opinion on this latest American atrocity. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  14. Wonderboogie at the outdoor bar at Harrah's, its free. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  15. Go, right now, to the nearest gun store and arm yourself. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  16. If you think professional wrestling's real, you'll love Operation Repo. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  17. Well, he did have a full life I guess but overall that just sucks. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  18. Ya want OLD...I was a bouncer in a bar where REO was the 'House Band'. ...they got the name 'REO Speed-wagon' from the antique fire truck parked out front. Hell, you're still wet behind the ears. I used to see ZZ Top when they were the house band at the New Orleans Club in Austin. I apply for Medicare in May. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  19. Last year's physical exam showed my combined cholesterol level at 243 with the "bad cholestrol" number being elevated. Told the doctor that my diet is almost fat free, that I walk five miles a day and just couldn't understand what the cause of the elevated number could be. He said that maybe I just had a "bad cholestrol day" when the blood was drawn. Had my annual physical three days ago and the cholestrol number was down to below 200 and a with a dramatic drop in the "bad" number. This was done without any medication or significant lifestyle change.
  20. Yep, and I helped move it to Whitewright, erect it, frame out and finish the inside of it.
  21. In Times Square watching the ball drop. When we got back to our room the hotel staff had left two glow sticks and a large bottle of water on the nightstand. Still haven't figured out if they were joking or not. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  22. So you are posting from Folsom, eh? I guess he turned 21 in prison doing life without parole, too. I bet no one could steer him right, but his Momma tried. Or singing him back home before he dies. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  23. Very little I liked about my time of being press ganged into the Air Force because the only other choices I had at the time were being drafted into the Army and being sent off to Vietnam as infantry cannon fodder, going to prison or skulking off to Canada, all unacceptable to me. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  24. Going to see Otis Day and the Nights (Animal House) and being the designated driver. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
