Delfino, what's wrong with us? You say "that stuff really gets on my proverbial tits." and I say "I'd give my left nut for *insert whatever here*".

err, Then again, every once in a while my Grandpop would yell out "Oh my achin' ovaries!!"

Whats another name for a push-up bra?

Cuthbert - Disagree with you ? In a nice way. You and GGG are a bit too militant, for lack of a better word, for me. I'm not big into guns and hunting and I think that we need goverment. I believe that the goverment needs to ran like a business, where we are the share holders and there is a form of profit sharing. My wife's cousin is an officer in the army. He is a platoon sargent ? Anyway, he was telling me that when he orders supplies for the platoon he is not allowed to but things at a discount. He is obligated to buy the most expensive. The idea is that stimulates the economy. However, the also leads to the government paying high prices because of jackasses that are greedy. I've talked to some people about the streamling of the goverment. The whole thing could be done for a lot less, which would benifit everyone. We just passed an amendment here in Oregon that would mandate the state pay a person for the devaluation of their land due to a zone change. While I feel for the people, buying land is like playing the stock market. Sometimes you win...But most of all where do these people think this money is coming from!! Our taxes. So if we up the state spending, up go taxes or less funding for other thing. I don't get it. Sorry for the lack of thought flow. This was a stream and not a well thought out progression.

On another note I sent that Zero Energy link to one of my Physics profs. I had never heard of this before and some of the concepts were above my knowledge. I'll let you know what his thought are on it.

Jazzzy - When I think of the interior of the country I always think of this commercial for e-business where two farmers are in their trucks and one wants to sell some goods to another county and askes the other farmer "Have you ever been out of the county?" Funny as hell. I used to spend my summers in OK among the rednecks. Not fun. I really wonder what percentage of Americans have never left their county and what percentage of them do not live on the coast. By the way, I have a passport.

Michelle - I have never been East of the Mighty Miss'ppi. I have friends that keep trying to get me to go out there. Just hasn't happened. I am surprised that the crime rate is so high in a town that I would not consider as large. I looked up some stats and compared our two cities.

Population, Size(sq mi) , Med fam. income, unempy. rate
Reading, 83,000, 10 , $27,000, 9.2%
Beaverton, 80,000 , 17 , $60,000 , 3.3%

I think here is the reason for the high crime rate. That and I don't live in a very culturally diverse city either (75% white). I can see why you would want to live somewhere else. Tell your sister "GET OUT NOW!!" How much of this economic depression is caused by the down turn of the railroad system? Was this a town that was very dependent on the railroad for substanance? Just curious.

WebPage - I don't remember who's idea that was but I like it. It may be that it would be easier if we set a web page where people could post thir URLs . I know I have a hard time remembering everone that have a site with tunes on it. Doing it this way would be convenient for both the users and for the person handling the site. What are everyone's thoughts?

Mr Junkpile - Having been in Mexico all last week, Yes you do need a passport. I was asked more than a few times for mine. And I'm Mexican!!

Guitrnutt - Not only do th DVDs contribute more to the experience but they also offer a peek into how things are played. I don't know how many times I've watched a DVD and said "AAHH that how he does that."

3 Wishes

A blonde, a brunette and a redhead are stuck on an island. One day, the three of them are walking along the beach and discover a magic lamp. They rub and rub, and sure enough, out pops a genie.

The genie says, "Since I can only grant three wishes, you may each have one."

The brunette says, "I've been stuck here for years. I miss my family, my husband, and my life. I just want to go home."

POOF! The brunette gets her wish and she is returned to her family.

Then, the red head says, "I've been stuck here for years as well. I miss my family, my husband, and my life. I wish I could go home too."

POOF! The redhead gets her wish and she is returned to her family.

The blonde starts crying uncontrollably.

The genie asks, "My dear, what's the matter?"

The blonde whimpers, "I wish my friends were still here."

New Rules For Employment

SICKNESS AND RELATED LEAVE: We will no longer accept a doctor statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

SURGERY: Operations are now banned. As long as you are an employee here, you need all your organs. You should not consider removing anything. We hired you intact. To have something removed constitutes a breach of employment.

BEREAVEMENT LEAVE: This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, Relatives or coworkers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases, where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early, provided your share of the work is done enough.

YOUR OWN DEATH: This will be accepted as an excuse. However, we require at least two weeks notice as it is your duty to train your own replacement.

RESTROOM USE: Entirely too much time is being spent in the restroom. In the future, we will follow the practice of going in alphabetical order. For instance, all employees whose names begin with ''''''''''''''''A'''''''''''''''' will go from 8:00 to 8:10, employees whose names begin with ''''''''''''''''B'''''''''''''''' will go from 8:10 to 8:20 and so on. If you''''''''''''''''re unable to go at your allotted time, it will be necessary to wait until the next day when your turn comes again. In extreme emergencies employees may swap their time with a coworker. Both employees'''''''''''''''' supervisors in writing must approve this exchange. In addition, there is now a strict 3-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, and the stall door will open.

Three Sentenced for Golf With Prostitutes

NORCO, Calif. Nov 5, 2004 — Two golf course managers and a tournament organizer were sentenced to house arrest for hosting two competitions featuring prostitutes and strippers stationed along the putting greens.

Superior Court Judge Christian F. Thierbach chided the three for their "immoral and illegal actions" at the so-called girlie tournaments in spring 2002.

More than a dozen prostitutes and strippers, including a 16-year-old girl, set up tents and advertised their services on boards, officials said. About 160 golfers paid $200 apiece to play, though some showed up without their clubs, officials said.

Sheriff's deputies wearing camouflage raided the second tournament, detaining 90 golfers and 17 strippers and alleged prostitutes, along with golf course workers.

In a deal with prosecutors, she pleaded guilty to felony conspiracy to corrupt public morals and testified against Hidden Valley Golf Club general manager Jason Wood, 38, and his former assistant, Darren James Bollinger, 30. The pair pleaded guilty in July to the same charge.

All three were sentenced to 125 days of house arrest.

Cuthbert - I agree in the ability to do things as long as they don't hurt others. Un fourtunately, what hurts people is open to interpretation.

As for guns. I believe there a big difference between those that own rifles and those that own hand guns. I have many friend that hunt. I'm actually a damn good shot. Although I think shooting something from 400 yrd away is not hunting, but killing. I believe in the sport of hunting in which the animal has a chance. Use a bow or a knife if you are muy macho.

I am a firm believer in zoning. I believe that there needs to be more mixed use, but I don't want some guy to be able start up a junk yard next to my house.

Diamondbacks dismiss Backman; name Melvin manager

PHOENIX (Ticker) - Four days after being hired as manager of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Wally Backman has been sacked due to his legal problems.

The team has scheduled a news conference for 1 p.m. EST to announce the firing of Backman and hiring of Bob Melvin.

guitarnut777 - "Anyone here have any particular music videos you recommend or great live DVDs for a fellow guitarnut?"

For now, check out these three:

- Led Zeppelin - DVD
- Rush - In Rio
- Dream Theater - Live At Budokan

You can find them at CD Universe.

Don't use that as an excuse to continue posting your insensitive and intolerant comments.

One is not being righteous, nor is he lecturing, if he simply suggests that people should have some sense of decency when they post instead of throwing out endless lists of insults.

Three weeks early? Hehehe... Okay...Happy Thanksgiving. :-)

I'm done with midterms as well...it feels SO good. :-)

LOL!

I can safely say that no, I wasn't there.

I work at great depths

I plunge head first into everything I do

I do not get weekends off or public holidays

I work in a damp environment

I don't get paid overtime

I work in a dark workplace that has poor ventilation

You do not work 8 hours straight

You fall asleep on the job after brief work period

You do not always follow the orders of the management team

You do not stay in your allocated position, and often visit other areas

You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working

You leave the workplace rather messy at the end of your shift

You don't always observe necessary safety regulations, such as wearing the correct protective clothing

You'll retire well before reaching 65

You're unable to work double shifts

cuthbert, haha, thanks for that dude.....I wasn't sure about the location of "buttfuck", and I thought Oklahoma, but then got confused between it and Oregon and Ohio, and didn't want to offend anybody! hehe.

Anyway, Yeah I see your point, that there are short-sighted political retards in every party. It sucks. I suppose it'd help if we knew more about domestic policies from each party, but I still think Bush for re-run was a bad idea!

airman_siro@yahoo.co.uk

I was onced asked where I was from, and when I replied "UK" I was asked "which state is that?"

By the way, I disagree on Jazzzzy being insensitive and intolerant......I think he has a good grasp of the principal of everyone being allowed their oewn opinion, but just doesn't like it when some people try to enforce their own opinion and tell him that he is wrong. You can only tell someone that about something material, but opinion is "abstract".

Question....Does Joe have a copy of the CD?

HAPPY 500 TO ME

After Great Britain's Beer Festival...

After Great Britain's Beer Festival, all the brewery presidents decided it would be fun to hit a pub in London and go out for a beer. The first sits down and says, "Hey, Señor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona."

The bartender dusts off a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him.

The second says, "I'd like the best beer in the world. Give me 'The King of Beers.' One Budweiser please."

The bartender gives him one.

Another guy says, "I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water; give me a Coors."

The bartender gives him one.

The guy from Guiness sits down as he orders a Coke. The bartender is a bit taken aback, but gives him what he ordered.

The other presidents look over at him and ask, "Why aren't you drinking a Guiness?"
