Nice piece. Weapons are only fired from the shoulder holster in movies (elevator scene in Die Hard 3) so I can't say that the muzzle being pointed backward was something I would have thought of.

Mr. Illegal Left bested me by a country mile on the ridiculous front. :D

WAY too many! Kate was on the cover of US; Jon on the cover of People :td: I believe Kate has scored 6 in a row on US.

:D

:D:D


You expect me to interpret poetry tonight? :confused::rolleyes:

I thought left-handed born on Friday the 13th was lucky?

Plus1 was born Apr 13, our nanny July 13, and BL JR Oct 13. We need to add a Jan 13 so make it quarterly.

"1, 2, 3, 4, c'mon baby say you'll drug me"

He's right, that is far more important.

LAS is high on my list of golf trips. I have a thick file in my home office of courses and airports to match enough for several lifetimes of long weekends.

Yeah, but one has to pull from the holster - ties into what became a concern with the Glock. The squared trigger guard gets me into an unintended habit (which I've recognized).

Oh surely not. It was absolutely uproarious. The funniest thing I've ever heard. I'm sure that George Carlin would use the line if he was still with us.

That's just indescribably wrong but expected.

TPC kicked my rear end.

Thanks. I didn't care enought to google
Thanks :rolleyes:; it made me think of that phrase "better to be married to a smart a$$ than a dumb a$$)

Along with the headline "Mommy, you are so mean"

I've watched a total of 1 min 45 seconds of the show since it's inception; I fail to see why they are relevant :confused:

There are so many important topics such as:
Miley Cyrus and 30 year old boyfriend breaking up - is Nick Jonas to blame
Brittany Spears is foxtrotting her manager - dad approves
Why are we wasting cover space on Jon and Kate?

Fair point. But I'm pear-shaped even when I'm thinner...I don't know that inside-the-pants is the right choice for me.

You have not met the feeling of having yours or anyone else's body regions handed to you on a golf course until you've played Bethpage Black.

My experience with golf in Vegas is all second hand, but let it be said that it is not cheap.

GolfWorld Rankings
Shadow Creek
Bali Hai
Royal Links Golf Club
Desert Pines Golf Club
TPC Las Vegas
Bear's Best Golf Club

"Best value" as per locals - Desert Rose Golf Course & Boulder City Golf Course

Anti-best value = Shadow Creek, Cascata and Wynn Country Club at $500 a round.

You've never golfed in LAS?

Please re-read the Delta forum warning and then compare and contrast to what I humbly submit as a CO Forum-appropriate adaptation of said warning.

================================================== ================

Dear Continental Forum FlyerTalk members,

There has been a significant increase in animosity and acrimony, a marked spike in general stupidity, and a huge increase in pointless threads resulting in a shift in the overall tone and feel of the Continental Forum. In some cases, this negative tone is a factor that has contributed to some FlyerTalk members deciding to combat the rise in stupidity and poor attitudes with equal amounts of bitter sarcasm and a lack of participation in the Continental Forum.

The stupidity and markedly poor attitudes that have become prevalent in the Continental Forum are becoming constant rather than occasional. The same messages, facts and opinions, most especially regarding posts dealing with customer service failures by a 1K of convenience and meandering open-ended questions written by someone whose stupidity defies description are constantly repeated over and over again ad nauseum. There also seems to be a penchant as of late for posters wanting to cling to the sinking ship of their incorrect information regarding CO and OnePass. If you are proven incorrect by some reasonable means, please consider promptly performing what Gen. Dwight Eisenhower referred to as "a tactical advance to the rear". There have even been accusations that certain FlyerTalk members have functioning brains in their heads, which is categorically not true.

People are welcome to debate the issues, as long as they listen to what the other person has to say and respond in kind, instead of what appears to be promoting an agenda filled with rhetoric, vitriol and propaganda, as well as jumping to conclusions, speaking for other FlyerTalk members, and posting of accusations and personal attacks. This goes for everyone on all sides of the issues.

In other words, play nice, or do not play at all.

It is understandable that increased tension is currently present in the Continental Forum as a result of the migration of Continental to Star Alliance, as well as the Forum experiencing runoff from the poisoned septic tank that is the United Forum. Some official policies of Continental Airlines can also lead to stress and the need to dump large steaming cauldrons of angry rhetoric on random people, especially if you have recently missed a companion upgrade. However, that is not an excuse to attempt to unnecessarily denigrate fellow FlyerTalk members, nor is it an excuse to exacerbate the user experience of the Continental forum.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Regards,

ConciergeMike

Thanks, I'll be here all week. Please remember to tip your waitress.

You need to add something about passing off incorrect information as gospel.

No. How very sad for me.

I'm too cheap for the $500 green fees and too cheap to gamble enough to get comped.

I need to find somebody who works for a company that owns a casino that could hook me up.
