But there'll be one by this afternoon.
Congratulations to you on a line that would drip most elegantly from Seth Meyer's lips on Weekend Update.
Besides, CT is less a state and more a NYC bedroom community.
And about as masculine. I get the gay vibe too. And the alien one.
And no one did language quite like Watterson. I think we're succeeding in our efforts to "make language a complete impediment to understanding."
Actually, there would likely only be testing for sex in female athletes, except maybe in Tae Kwon Do.
Where's the outrage?
Probably in bed asleep, where I'd like to be.
Because if it is, YOU Mr. Benjamin have just been put on my shit-list.
But it's happened before and is likely to happen again.
I was on a UA flight listening to Channel 9 (love it - good entertainment during take-off and landing, and a good excuse not to talk to the neighbor during the rest of the flight).
Anyway, I was flying SEA-IAD and we had just passed Chicago and it was about the time the flight began its gradual approach into Northern Virginia when I heard traffic control give the pilots the hand-off. No response from the cockpit. There was no response for a while and in the meantime traffic control tried a couple more times to contact the crew. When the cockpit finally did respond you could tell the controller was a little miffed when he replied, "You're a little late."
I wasn't worried. I probably would have been if it'd gone on for much longer, but I didn't want to be the guy who yelled "Fire" in a crowded theatre. I guessed that the crew was likely distracted or didn't hear the ATC but figured that since I still saw land under the plane, we weren't too far off course and would make IAD just fine. Hearing the snarky reply from the controller made it all the better. Original amusement at 37,000 feet over Ohio is rare these days.
You're ALL correct and ALL wrong, both at the same time. There. Happy now?
Good work Stephanie. I'm still not going to see the movie. The previews horrified me.
Because no one serves up crazy like this guy.
AT LEAST NOT WHAT?!?!?!
And I thought that was important to CA voters. You know...'cause y'all are shallow and stuff.
But when it comes to loudmouth Dems, you don't get any louder then Biden. Gotta love him for that. I still believe that Obama couldn't have made a better decision then Biden for VP. He needed a bulldog that he could either get behind or roll his eyes at depending on what the issue du jour was. Can you see Kaine doing that?
Are the anti-abortion nuts riding the anti-healthcare reform's coattails or vice verse?
[conspiracytheory] I wonder if they have secret meetings to come up with this crap? [/conspiracytheory]
We call them Mental Health Days (to preserve mental health!) or Wellness Days. It's expected that employees are bound to take time off because they're Sick and Tired rather then just plain old sick.
As a manager, I actively support this kind of thinking because it's better to have an employee who's happy to be here rather then one with one foot out the door. Replacing employees is a pain the ass.
I don't care how it sounds. It's criminal and he should be thrown in jail.
AT&T's coverage in my area sucks. I don't care how well the iPhone works, if it can't perform its basic function - making a phone call - nothing short of the creation of Ma Cell will make me jump ship.
*channels Armisen's NY Gov Patterson*
...in Jersey.
Huh? Are you a troll?
Opposing the legislation gives us even more of a reason to screw the insurance industry, and then they throw general greediness on the heap and there's enough schaudenfreude to satisfy even the most sadistic of us.
Ruthless, heartless, evil, bloody bastards, assholes, yes. Smart? Nah.
The only passenger carriers I could find that operate 75s exit Spain to the US are the Silver Eagle or the Blue-tailed Globe. Everything else is 6s and 7s or the dreaded AirBoos.
I don't care enough to say anything more.
The next big boom will be porn. Mark my words. Porn.
So it's possible that he NOW has no relationship with Newsmax. Here's to hoping! YAY UNEMPLOYMENT!!
And I approve thith methage."
Her political radio ads were a hoot.
Ah, got it. I'm American but I guess that was a sign of my spending too much time at work (w/ those filthy Europeans). I saw the comma and immediately thought decimal.
or trillion?
Too little, too late.
to use a damned spell-checker once in a while?

Red pencil marks all over this bad-boy.
I'm not even from California and the old biddy still manages to get in my business.
that is all.
Because every last one that I've seen with his mother, he looks just like her.
Maybe it's being raised in a multi-racial, multi-cultural home, but I can definitely spot the likenesses. He and his sister have the same eyes as their mother.
the one that says that "crapload" is a generally accepted economic term.
:)
that nobody gives a shit.
I guess not. Sometimes an article just for the fun factor is just what we need. Because sometimes we seem to take ourselves and everything we read ON THE INTERNET just a little too seriously.
So really, get off your high-horses and find your funny-bone because this article was nothing if not cute.
nominate her for the SCOTUS and get rid of her.
Jesus, save me from your followers!
