  1. This is completely wrong! First, the cat is supposed to be tossed out first, then the jumpers chase it. Second, I'm pretty sure it is cheating to cover the cat's paws ...takes the sport out of it. Agreed. The Georgia Cat Chasing Championships was the definitive competition. Somebody's gotta say it!

  3. I don't have any problem with taxes. Do you? Problems with taxes and problems with taxation are two different things. But nope and nope.
  4. So ...if money is only an illusion then I'll assume you have no problem with taxation since any money the gubmint would demand from you is illusory anyway. ...Joke's on them!
  5. Interesting that no Lutheran has ever served as President ...a little unexpected in a "I'll be darned, what's for dinner?" sorta way given the range of other affiliations that have been represented.
  6. Two, I think ...along with all Dems and Independents who also voted against it ...including Obama, who, in a rare moment of decision, voted rather than abstained. So, it seems to have been a political issue then, too.
  7. [Dr Phil voice] "Now what were yooo thinkin'?" You ever been to "Roscoe's Chili Challenge"? (biker gathering not far from Zhills) This video brought back memories of good times there.
  8. Well, without Al "Who are these people" Gore in the poll you might as well have asked "Who's the biggest dunce ....Albert Einstein or Niels Bohr?"
  9. 51 is not a prime number. (Anyone who's ever played darts knows that.)
  10. Increased incidence of drug abuse, spousal abuse, and suicide. Unusual change in daily routine. Change in behavior. There are ways. (Also, if flies are swarming around them that is a pretty good sign.)
  11. http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Canadians_%28origin%29 http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Sicilian
  12. Why does it have to be polygamy vs. homosexual marriage? Why couldn't there be homosexual polygamist marriages? ...or any other combination for that matter? Also, as far as polygamy goes ....who in their right mind would set themselves up with a such a potential for a conspiracy against him to happen? I dunno ...just sounds nuts to me.
  13. #315 in the 1st lottery + student deferment. Can't remember the classification (maybe 2-S?). Then from ~1970 till the end of the draft I was 1-A but was never called.
  14. So you will be preaching for "it" ...not against "it"?
  15. I'm already a dudeist priest as are many other DZ.commers but I could, conceivably, become an apostate and even convert for a decent plate of spaghetti. ...but only for the real deal ...I wouldn't commit heresy for some (olive) garden variety pasta.
  16. I hope you are including Muslims . These fools deserve the B. S. of the year award . 72 virgins? gtfo Can we get back to talking about pasta!?
  17. I don't intend to make a comment or opinion about whether law enforcement is or is not held to different standards. ...only commenting on the fact that during this type of dangerous, high-stress situation even the police can be perceived to "over-react" by people who were not there. For all I know the 68 bullets that hit this guy were fired by 68 different cops at the same time. There certainly were more than enough cops in the woods at that time. (I wasn't even commenting about the answer the Sheriff gave to the reporter to explain why he was hit 68 times ...basically that it was because they ran out of bullets.) But you, yourself, agreed that "'You can only shoot till they pose no threat' is EXACTLY right." and that "That's the same thing law enforcement is taught and held to." That is what I was responding to. I think that the guy in the woods posed no threat well before the 68th bullet struck him. BTW - This was a local incident and some of the folks directly involved are/were known to me or members of my family.
  18. Try telling that to the cops. I can hear them laughing from here. Not really. Mike was spot on. That's the same thing law enforcement is taught and held to. Yeah, but sometimes even the cops can't be sure if a guy is still conscious or not. "I suspect the only reason 110 rounds was all that was fired was that's all the ammunition they had," (the Sheriff) said. "We were not going to take any chance of him shooting back."
  19. Maybe he thought he was mercifully and humanely "putting the guy out of his misery" ...like a lame horse or a dog. (They shoot horses, don't they?)
  20. What are you doing over here in SC?!?. Get back to the Bonfire ...where you belong! (
  21. My age is on the cusp of two groups so I chose the "younger" group. But after voting I realized I was the oldest in that room. ...I think I would rather be the youngest in a group. Can I change my vote!
  22. Remember when gasoline looked and smelled like gasoline? I remember those .18 gas wars, too.
  23. At least one site says that EP was originally developed to compete with the LP format but they played at 45 rpm rather than 33 1/3 rpm. I really don't remember this about EPs since I only bought either 45 singles or LPs.
