In our progressive & multi-cultural age,
even men now say "we are pregnant".
I'm not that advanced...I'd never say it.

He should be on paternité et congé, (paternity leave). 'Non' he said, he will have time off when mommy needs him.

SACRAMENTO, CA
DUGWAY, UT
FORT BRIDGER, WY
COMMERCE CITY, CO

Baby back ribs, maybe.

Driving back and forth from California and Indiana made me realize Smokey and the Bandit has some issues, mostly that it's not really that great of a distance to cover inthe time given (and i doubt the trip is even close to 900 miles one way). I've done here to Oklahoma City in 18 hours, so Georgia to Eastern Texas and back in 28 hours isn't much of a challenge, even if you take a few hours to buy the car and pick up your side kick.

It hit 99° at the airport today. I guess that means summer is here.

There's a fire weather watch in effect due to heat and strong winds in the next couple of days.

Yeah. Hell isn't in Michigan. It's in Arizona.

Smokey and the Bandit is alsi frustrating me tbat my first car could have been a Firebird but the wanker at the dealership assumed I was too young and too inexperienced for the car, despite the fact I was driving long before I could legally drive and even raced quarter midgets for awhile (that was mostly educational for me 8n what not to do and learning to feel the road through the tires).

Don't ever be in such a hurry that
you hook up an inverter with the
wrong polarity.
I was going to use it to make toast.
Well....it's toast.

I didn't get hired where I interviewed. No surprise. Hardly anyone actually does that.

I wonder if I can text or email bomb these scammers who every night tell me an account I don't have is restricted and have to log in to keep it?

I'm too depressed to sleep. About as depressed as I was when I got an IOP treatment, which happened when I shared a very dark irony of a suicidal ideation (using a speeding ambulance with it's lights amd sirens on) with my doctor. She didn't like hearing that.

I don't know what "IOP" is.
The things I don't know could fill a herd of libraries.

What if Benjamin Franklin were reincarnated in a foreign country? I don't think we've ever had a thread on this. Anybody want to start it? Anybody? Anybody?

You REALLY need to stop showing up to interviews in your V outfit... I know you like to keep the knives close, but it makes most potential employers rather nervous

And your Danny Trejo vest and coat you use to accessorize ..., no matter how nice it might looks .... is out to

Look: New York museum building world's largest 'Donkey Kong' arcade machine - UPI.com

The New York museum that houses the World Video Game Hall of Fame announced it is installing a 20-foot "Donkey Kong" arcade cabinet designed to be the largest in the world.

www.upi.com

The Strong said Nintendo of America, which owns the Donkey Kong game and associated characters, provided input on the project.

Donkey Kong, released in 1981, features the first appearance of perennial Nintendo hero Mario, although at the time of the game's release he was known as Jumpman.

The arcade machine is scheduled to make its debut June 30.

I wonder if they'll make other giant arcade machines.

Today is a climbing the ladder kind of day.

For me it is more of a trying not to fall off the ladder kind of day

But we both age slow and look way younger than we really are. So of course it also looks good on me.
