  1. Tried it when I was a teen. Please, everyone try your hardest to quit all tobacco. My father smoked cigarettes from the age of 14 to 34. Switched to pipes and cigars. smoked those until 53. Had a "silent heart attack" and a TIA at 53. Was out of work for 3 months. Quit cold turkey then. At 59 diagnosed with lung cancer -was coughing up blood. First words after the diagnosis were "Son of a B word, I should have never started smoking". Lived for about 18 more months (age 60). Don't want to see anyone else go through that.
  2. Any organ meats Lima beans
  3. I never got anything in the mail. Not the reminder, form or followup postcard, and I am in the same place as 2000. Today iw sa at the library and a Census person was there. Got the form. There is no way I missed it in the mail. Didn't give my name or phone #., but filled out the rest.
  4. Today in Charlotte at a Q&A with workers at a battery plant, the Messiah gave a 17 minute, 2,500 word answer to a woman who asked "Whether it was a wise decision to add more taxes to us with the health care package". http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2010/0...0-word-res.html Castro used to give hours long speeches. The One has a way to go to catch up to his idol.
  5. Blow up doll?
  6. I wish I had his $. He's made millions. Git 'R Done!
  7. This thread is approaching 3.5 territory. Not near it, but it is approaching it. pBills, are you Holcomb's Arm???
  8. I don't know his politics, but his opponent in a primary would use his anti-Bills comments from his work on Boston radio against him.
  9. He had two hot women fighting over him, he doesn't need to hold a presser.
  10. Go back to "organizing" for Tony Soprano and handing out purple SEIU t-shirts
  11. I drove from Hartford to Silicon Valley in 1995. Had a rental truck and towed my car. Got on the road just before sunrise and drove until about 45 min before sunset. Picked a destination and made a reservation for that evening. Wyoming has a lot of exits on 80, but most are just two dirt roads going north and south to the horizon. Ended up staying in Buffalo (mom's house), middle of Illinois (locked the keys in the truck), Omaha, Laramie, Salt Lake City, and Reno.
  12. Increase the class sizes . When I was in HS (peak of the baby boom), we had about 30 kids/class. Much better education than now.
  13. He does live in SF.
  14. To stop unnecessary posts, when you visit the DMZ, the table where the talks were held is right on the border. You can walk around the table and therefore set foot in NK.
  15. The fertilized egg has a a unique genome, unlike any other organism on earth. It carries on the requirements for life. We went over this years ago. If you want, I'll pull out my basic bio book textbook again and recite them. Just have to wait till Monday, as I am going to listen to the Sabres-Ottawa game now and have fun this weekend. Now back to the douchebag, Ed Schultz
  16. They surprised me. I was wondering why we went about 13 miles to a restaurant when there were a lot closer than that. Turns out my girlfriend met us there!
  17. I share a birthday (not the same years) with: Danica Patrick Debi Thomas, U.S., figure skater, 1988 Olympics bronze Tom Glavine Sarah Jessica Parker Haywood Nelson ( Dwayne-What's Happening-Hey Hey Hey) Mary Gross- SNL Nick Lowe (Cruel to Be Kind) Elton John Bonnie Bedelia (wife in first two Die Hard movies) Frank Oz (Yoda, Miss Piggy) Paul Michael Glaser (Starsky) Aretha Franklin Hoyt Axton (actor/ singer (Gremlins) and songwriter (Joy to the World)) Gloria Steinem-feminist James A. Lovell Howard Cosell
  18. The Post Office hires aliens (terrestrial and extraterrestrial).
  19. The reason for the high prescription drug costs in the US is the price controls in other countries. The drug companies can't by law charge more there. They have to get the money for R&D for new drugs from someplace. Price controls here = no new drugs. Want to lower our costs? Get the other countries to remove their controls.
  20. Thanks all! Friends are taking me out to dinner today. My on-again, off-again girlfriend is taking me out Saturday. (She lives about 35 miles away and works farther, so today isn't possible). Once past a certain point, only the decade ones are significant.
  21. Love how they drew Sara Jessica Parker.
  22. Get a life. I didn't even realize I said that several times.
  23. I saw her one time as I was channel surfing and wondered who she reminded me of. I thought a while and then it hit me- a teenage Fred Savage. Of course if you have a thing for a teenage Fred Savage, that's your business. Whatever floats your boat.
  24. Here's her column on it: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=131541 Another great one. Sure to get the lib's panties in a bunch.
  25. Have to allow all those ACORN people to vote dontcha know.
