Absolutely incredible.

But you guys can handle it.

One entertaining aspect of Internet forums (and something that we don't get enough of here) is seeing all the problem solvers come out of the woodwork when something goes wrong (e.g., losing three games in a row).

But we never lose three games in a row here.

And I just watched part of that road video you posted. Now that's entertainment.

Sounded like Ben Stein on downers.

My loving siblings started laughing at me, and said I'd eaten cow poop. Of course eating cow poop meant I was going to turn into a cow, or so they said, so I ran screaming into the house. My parents and aunts and uncles were all inside the house, sitting around a table playing sheepshead. They all asked what was wrong, and after I'd blubbered out that I'd eaten poop laden snow and I was going to turn into a cow, they told me to turn around. One of them shouted out "Oh look! You've already grown a tail!" and pulled on one end of the belt that had come undone. I burst into tears. They all burst into laughter.

Good times.
did this scar you for life?

great story.

If anyone is bored and want's a quick laugh, go here and start at the second paragraph. It is a judge's opinion on a lawsuit filed by Bolivia in Texas federal courts, and the judge is nothing shy of a complete smart-ass. It made me lol

talking of law, i heard the most ridiculous blood boiling crap today.

i had cleared the snow in front of my house because i did not want the melting snow to become a lethal ice sheet. today a neighbour told me that he heard that if people fall in front of my house, the fact that i had cleared it meant they could sue me for not clearing it adequately and black ice caused them to fall. if i didn't clear it at all, it would not be my fault but the local council's fault and this is why most people do not clear away snow.


people suck. F them.
