I've been to a BJs. Good beer.

It was a long time before I realized that "pizookie" was a hybrid term for pizza-cookie. The zoooo-kie part was too distracting to actually sit down and think through the semantics. Plus, it really has little to do with pizza, besides the fact that it was conceived by the BJ's Chicago Pizza and Brewery chain, which has locations all over the West Coast and Southwest, as well as Texas, Florida, and a few Midwestern states.

and a Mexican Pizza at Taco Bell really isn't a pizza either.

Totally different. The Taco Bell Pizzazz looked like what most of us would think of as a pizza.

This cookie thing looks like a cookie. The link emphasized that it was cooked in its own pan. Like all cookies.

So sue me.

Only if Henry Ford thinks I have a case here.

Or would that have been a better spot for a CSI meme? I can never tell. I'm not funny

Good luck to mini-stryker

Bet he'd take it on contingency.

I want Murray.

 

[Frostillicus]

I want Murray.

He's sleeping next to me. I could probably grab him and throw him in a box quick.

 

[krista4]

I'll take Murray; you can have bentley. Or vice versa.

This bentley or Murray?

Who had the thread a while back about trying to get a cat in the crate to go to the vet? Was that truck? That was funny

I do not have a bentley. Especially not that one.

 

[Frostillicus]

Murray does not like our ice maker.

 

[YSR]

Bentley could fit in a letter mailer.

I'm sorry but you guys can't vacuum for a while, either.

Anyone who says "DOOD, the US lost to Germany and ur happy?" (or some variant thereof) should have their kids mailed to Boko Haram.

 

[Celph Titled]

Our kids did not come out of my wife's vag (or anyone else's) and I'm pretty happy about that, for obvious reasons: I'd rather not have my son touching my wife's ##### if at all possible.

Looks like a cookie cake with ice cream. Not a pizza.

Who said it was a pizza?

I assumed that's what the Piz in the name represented. A combination of pizza and cookie. No?Why not call it Big Cookie with ice cream if that's all it is?

You were hoping for some marinara sauce in there?

 

[krista4]

Heads up now. Bad news: Brandon lost the chip lead. Good news: second place brings about $1 million.

Honestly I didn't really look at what it was. Just the combination of pizza and cookie made me . Sorry for disappointment.

And yes, I know I'm setting myself up with this question, but what the hell is a BJ's?

(Said every wife ever, or whatever your joke might be.)

I'm not particularly worried about the c-section itself and baby. The wife is basically phobic when it comes to veins/needles though. We were shooting for natural, no IV, no intervention. Had a doula etc. so she's very disappointed and scared.

I have some concerns due to her anesthesia allergy (suspected malignant hyperthermia). I say suspected because she was 8 years old when she had her tonsils out and had a reaction on the table. No real new info about it for her since back then, and her mom is an idiot.

Plus the whole harder to breastfeed thing (milk production issues due to lack of hormones and pain holding him). Then selfishly I'm thinking how much more I will have to do now because she will be bedridden for a period and not allowed to drive etc. So many diapers and laundry and even less sleep for me. I will need to be away from my office longer for a job that I've been in for 4 months by the time baby comes and I am busier by the hour. :blows out:

 

[Henry Ford]

Hourly fee or contingency? If you're paying me hourly, I think you really need to right this terrible injustice.

 

[mr. furley]

Toughest part of the day was that I kept having to sit up and burp all the time. Heartburn sucks.

rotting gall bladder, imo

Chicken parm sandwich and half a pizza, IMO.

ball cancer?

 

[Captain Quinoa]

Good news: Found out yesterday an old friend from college who I haven't seen since my wedding is coming to town tomorrow for a concert. I offered to let him crash at our place and he is giving me a free ticket. Will be good to throw back some beers and catch up.

Bad news: Dave Matthews Band

So I almost ran over a guy with my car this morning. I was coming off the highway on an exit where it's a one way with a yield. I didn't see him as I got to the road, looked left for coming traffic, saw a semi truck coming but far enough away that I could easily make it out, started to accelerate when my wife made some sort of horrible freaking out noise. So I slammed on the brakes and looked up to see a black dude jumping out of the way at my left corner bumper. Thankfully he made it. I gave him a look and hand up like "my bad, are you OK!?" and he put his hand up signaling he was OK, turned around and kept on walking.

Hands are still shakey from the adrenaline and realization I almost ran someone over. I felt horrible, but I have no idea what the guy was thinking. I was clearly at the intersection before he was and yet he walked right out in front of the car. There's not even a sidewalk or anything there for good reason.

Fun start to the day. Thankfully my wife was in the car and alerted me to a problem. Of course, saying "Stop" would have been preferable to making the sound of a bird being strangled.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

100% true:

I had an orange cat named Larry. Smartest cat I've ever owned.

### ####it. We have to schedule a c-section.

Both of my kids were C-Sections and everything turned out fine.

Of course whenever either one of leaves the house the go through the window.

(stolen from Steven Wright)

Saw my kid bleed for the first time today. Kid did a faceplant right as we're walking out the door to take my wife to her friend's house before Vegas tomorrow morning. Bit through his lip and ripped his frenulum (flap of skin that connects your upper lip with your gums) Wife is freaking out, kid is freaking out, blood everywhere. He good to go now. After the initial shock he took it like a champ. He just has a fat lip I gotta watch for the next 2 days or so.

But almost 22 months is a helluva run without major faceplants and other general toddler dumbassery.

That's a helluva a run.

Help paint that pictures.

Thanks for chiming in, Studs.

Sheesh. I don't know what is worse, people that walk out in front of cars or people driving cars that try to make people walk in front of them to cross a street.

I had a parakeet when I was a kid, named him Timmy. What a stupid name for a stupid bird.

I had the weirdest dream this morning. Me, Mrs. SLB and the boys were vacationing with K4 and her numerous Italian family members. I guess it was somewhere in Europe judging by the architecture. At one point we attend a real estate auction where I went in halvsies on a house in Malibu with Bob Newhart. Then there was a boat ride on the ocean where there were hundreds of sea turtles. The next day we at the beach and I was snorkeling where I come upon an unexploded grenade. As I get closer though, I notice that it is some sort of firework but still unexploded. I grab it with a towel and toss it on the beach where it blew up in a pretty display of sparkles.

Man, that's a terrible idea. Never buy a house with Bob Newhart.

I dreamt I was sharing a bed with Foos, and we alternated farting until someone eventually sharted. Not sure who it was, but I ran to bathroom when I woke up, just to be sure.

 

[cosjobs]

Bentley, Kev, COlin (and Shuke if your'e in town).

Binky's staying here this week and we should all get together..

Dinner here (I got a box of Crab Legs or a NY Strip)

Dinner out

Lunch out

Drinks out

Meet for UFC fights at Twin Peaks (Sat night)

Makes no difference for us, what works for you guys? This guy can drink and I need some help preserving my liver remnants.

I can't make lunch. The Man will be keeping me down. Pretty flexible in the evenings, though, particularly if I get any lead time.

Pick a date and I will make dinner out.

Let's do crab legs at the Oaks Saturday at 6pm and anyone who wants can carry the party to the Twin Peaks to watch UFC at 7:30?

and a Mexican Pizza at Taco Bell really isn't a pizza either.

You just haven't had the right Taco Bell Mexicans preparing it.

Decent food (gigantic portions), not too shabby selection of their own beer, lots of TVs. Not worth going out of your way for but good place to watch a game.

They make a very good gluten free pizza.

One night a week bottles of wine are half price

 

[Idiot Boxer]

These cookie pizzas and Mexican pizzas...can you fold them? Make a sandwich?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I think these alternative non-pizza pizzas are up to something.
