I saw a great one on a Honda Civic messageboard several years ago....it was a Harry Potter-looking nerdish kid with a glass jar in his hand and a black sky with a lightning bolt in the background. The text: "I can catch lightning in a bottle but I still can't figure out what the fu*k you just said."

But if one has not read said joke, it it "used"?

Furthermore, what is the sound of a one-handed bear crapping in an empty Catholic forest?

On topic and a poo reference. ^

Made me think of the :rolleyes:highlight:rolleyes: in US Magazine today - the guy who did the Gazelle fitness machine (Don't remember his name but he had a ponytail) just married MS Bikini USA or something similar. It was a very odd pairing.

I also enjoyed the article about Leann Rimes stalking Eddie someone (that I'd never heard of until US broke that they were having an affair). It was about a six page article and all I could think was "Why is the wife doing this?" Oh, that's right, publicity:confused::rolleyes:

I used to read Newsweek, now People seems like a quality mag to me :rolleyes:

Can we cross-post the DL warning to CO and adapt it for stupidity and attitude problems?

I would love that.

At the time that the episode was filmed, she was still doing visual management for those stores.


I'll have to watch it again and look out for her ;)

Yes, they did which lead to Frizzy hair girl getting her bubbies (because she was not fulfilling the obligations of the swimwear she was trying on).

I blame it on the pharmaceuticals. Vicodin is being mixed with bubbly.

A lot of those tend to break one of the three rules of gun handling (always keep gun pointed in a safe direction). I use a Blackhawk paddle holster with the SERPA trigger guard lock (very nice feature) and carry something the size of a Glock 21.

Maybe I can come up with something more interesting than the random driving that icurhere2, Steph3n, and I engaged in recently.

But we saw USS Boulder, sister ship of the USS Harlan County AND some ridiculous driving.

Last night (no vicodin or bubbly) I thought I was hilarious around midnight when I told Plus1 that I wanted to turn a drs. appt into a musical. I only would do it if it was filmed.

I thought it would be great fun to watch the reaction to the dr or nurse when they ask "What is your pain on a level of 1-10" and I break out in song to either

Gloria Estefans
1,2,3 (changing some of the lyrics)

or 1,2, 3, 4 (from the ipod commercial)

There was more, but I'm pretty sure I was the only one who thought it was funny :p

CO327 went from F booked 12/16 to 14/16 in about 20 minutes without the 'upgraded customers' list changing....and Ms. GadFly and I are #4 and #5 on the standby list. Walkup F purchases at the last minute? When we walk back to our exit row (with a filled middle seat between us), we'll be scanning F and giving the :rolleyes: stinkeye to all of 'em.

Yes but how many articles / pictures were dedicated to Jon and Kate! :p

Dull roots with spring rain.

He doesn't mean that bad things happen in April, just that we are teased in April by the promise of summer not quite here yet.

Ms Portnoy would be most pleased with me.

Now, if you want to talk omens, bring up that whole left-handed born on Friday the 13th thing...

Looking at some golf courses for my trip to LAS - there's one par 72 with a course record of 68? That course isn't high on my priority list after a long layoff from golf ...
