Re: How can I help in the Gulf?

Big help would be to vote for someone else in 2012! To date the big O has not proven to lead anything. He couldn't lead us out of a wet paperbag This is not the time nor place for politics. Bill is just looking for ideas for what he can do to help the present situation. Agreed. However, some people...

Re: Just say NO to this Vodka

Hmmm...I love smoked salmon...and who *doesn't* like bacon? However, I'm not sure the combination with vodka and other mixers works for me. It's sort of like an ad I heard yesterday for someone's county fair. They were talking about one of the food booths serving chocolate-covered fried onion rings....

Re: Who's Going to MOTM 2010 Nov. 4-7th?

Welp, since Southwest was nice enough to run a fare sale covering the period of MOTM, I decided I was nice enough to go ahead and book my air travel. :D Usual itinerary - fly out Tuesday 11/2, overnight in Key Largo and visit the Pit Stop Party, and fly home on 11/9. Now I just need to find a place ...

Re: Corporate Buzzwords!

My favorite Dilbertism buzzword is "brightsizing." That's when all the smart people leave.

Corporate buzzwordspeak is the fine art of saying nothing in as many words as possible.

Re: Gulf Coast Benefit Concert July 1st???

Holy f*k. With a lineup like that, people will be 100 deep at the ticket counter, especially for a free show. Jimmy, ZBB, *and* Kenny? I think my jaw bounced off the carpet when I read that. If I could get tickets, I'd extend my stay next weekend and drive up from central FL. It would be worth incon...

Re: Flight attendent becomes co-pilot

Everyplace I've seen this article, the comments have run largely to Airplane! references.

It's nice to see my faith in humanity somewhat restored. :D

Re: Teacher Fired on "Morals" Charge

Fornicate the bloody school.

If she's an excellent teacher as described, she'll find a better gig someplace else.
