Go here and vote for Slaughterhouse Five

I never read it. Do I need to read the first four Slaughterhouses to understand it?

I just learned that the word (or what I thought was a word) "Snafu" was an acronym for "Situation Normal All ####ed Up"

Sometimes this place just requires too much work.I got Tanner's reference above to the Timsochet post. I thought that was pretty funny. Guy's a lunatic.

[Frostillicus]

Every QB can get injured. His style is no worse than QBs who just sit in the pocket and get crunched week in and week out. Vick deserves at least a 3-4 year deal like any other QB in the NFL that had close to his skills would get. Conclusions? You're the one starting a thread trumpeting the Eagles as good guys for doing this. I find it dispicable after what he accomplished on the field to not commit to him. This doesn't happen to Manning, Rivers, heck even Matt Cassel got a $40-$50 million deal when he came over from New England.

It's bogus and it's borderline bigotry IMO JU. I'm not saying you are but this simply doesn't happen to a majority of QBs in the NFL. The guy paid his dues and paid his debt to society and I find most people that are anti-Vick still have hostile feelings over what he went to prison for. That's fine but to feel all high and mighty about the Eagles dangling Vick out there on a 1 year contract...why do you give a flip JU? It's not your money so the only reason I can come up with is that you feel better rolling around in your Chevy that Vick isn't going to get a $75 million+ deal.

Vick deserves every penny the Eagles or anyone else is willing to spend. Ask yourself if Vick were allowed to test FA...what do you think a team would be willing to spend? $50 million, $75 million, $100 million??? I did a thread showing a boatload of teams that need answers at QB so why is it fair that the Eagles get to enslave Michael Vick with the franchise tag? This is why I want the players to change the way things are handled. Vick on the open market is worth at least $50 million but you're cheering because he won't get that kind of money. Since you are a Colts fan I can only assume that you have ill will to Vick. So getting back to you feeling so shocked by what I posted...I'm just calling a spade a spade. People around here cannot handle the truth, plain and simple

And I'm not sure I ever said I was efforting...just trying her ablum out a second time after a long layoff. It didn't jump out and grab me back in May, but I didn't really give it much of a chance. I'm doing that now. Not sure what crawled up Pickles' rear today, but his snark level is in the red today.Signed Rude and GM

I haven't had a beer in three days. Think I'm going to load up on some $3/six pack Walgreen's brand beer tomorrow.

On my part, didn't mean to be snarky (and my rear is in fine shape). Carry on with the Neko.

It's barely snowing and there have already been 42 accidents in the area this evening.

It's all good. I'm actually bypassing Neko now and listening to the Decemberists, a band I kinda of know a little, but never really jumped into. I'm doing that now. Pretty damn good.

Been at least a couple years since Pickles paid this much attention to anything I said. Still not sure what brought it on. He really hates the snow I guess.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

at the perceived persecution.

Relax, ladies.

 

[desert rose]

I get to sleep in tomorrow! We're on a 2 hour delay. I still don't see any snow outside my house, but I'll take it.

Yeah, she does, but ABC is a real **** for putting them in that spot...I mean, come on. Of all the things they could do on a date, they decide to bring her along to the track where her dead fiance's career came to an end? Michelle's acting is pretty bad. I can't take her seriously. She's driving the ratings because Wooden Boy can't, but the dominatrix bit was just dumb. No dude would put up with that.

I couldn't tell you one thing about the Lisa girl he dumped.



ABORT!

Agree with all of this.Lisa is hot, but she's stealthy. I understand they can't have the audience invested in every piece of driftwood on the show, but I don't remember two words out of her mouth. At least pretend she sticks around.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

I want to say to Emily: "It's like guys are flying against a ghost up there."

what the hell is wrong with you people?

Decemberists. Saw them perform in Asheville, NC early last year - really enjoyable live show. I have a nerd crush on Colin.

Got one square, but it's a good one: GB 0 PIT 7So give me a Steelers TD, then Packers TD & FG, and then just alternate TD & FG for each team the rest of the way with, say, a 50-47 final score . TIA.

Is it normal for a girl to keep a prom picture from almost 21 years ago?

Keep? I'd say that's okay. Framed on the mantle? You've got a problem.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day.

Actually we had an outlet that was arcing out and it smelled very badly of rotten fish/crotch. No kidding.

 

[bentley]

I have a photo of AngryWife and I from our prom 18+ years ago that I carry around in my portfolio. Makes for good schtick in meetings sometimes.

Mating takes place in the water and can be rough, the male biting the female on the muzzle – which often leaves scars on the nose – and sometimes holding her head under water.[8][60]

That's it. Take it, you dirty little otter slut.

Email received this afternoon from my boss

I have been approached a couple times already about Wednesday morning if we get hit hard with snow. Do not waste any time watching the news in the morning to see if school is out for OurCompany, it will not be because there are no such things as snow days in the adult world. We already have a two day warning that snow is coming, and that means the plows will be out and the roads will be fine. If people need extra time to get out of their driveways that's ok but the weather is not going to be an acceptable excuse to take the day off

Boss has yet to show up.4 people out of 32 are here.
