Do I amuse you?

The best episode EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It actually took almost 4 hours. The last cars crossed at 9 PM. Took someone I know 1 hour and 45 minutes to get in this morning. That included getting a ride to a nearby BART station, changing trains and walking 6-7 blocks (she works next to the Bridge in SF, in fact a block from Chef Jim's house). The winds have been high, so the crews haven't been up there to work on it. The repairs are about 120 feet above the roadway and he winds have been about 20 mph with gusts to 30. The alternatives are : 1) to take the BART 2) drive up to Richmond, across the Richmond San Rafael Bridge, down through Marin County (past San Quentin) and then over the Golden Gate Bridge into SF or 3) Down the east bay to the San Mateo Bridge (at least 15 miles), across the Bridge (10 miles) and back up the Peninsula to SF

Took over two hours to clear the approaches.

On Labor Day weekend, while schedule construction was being done, a cracked I-bar was found on another part of the Oakland- Bay Bridge. Quickly a bracket was designed, made , and put in place and the bridge opened only an hour behind schedule. Today at 5:30, the bracket made in September and a cable attached to it fell onto the upper deck of the bridge. No one was seriously hurt (just auto glass fragments in eyes) and three vehicles were damaged. They are closing the entire bridge. On Labor Day weekend, the closure was planned and it was a holiday weekend, so there wasn't much trouble. This closure will really cause a cluster **** tonight and tomorrow as about 500,000 cars go over it a day. At least Chef Jim will have a quiet night, as he lives in the shadow of the bridge.

He married the ketchup queen and he served in Vietnam, you know.

Looks like he newest Apple commercial ("Trust Me") is right on the money.

Lotsa bugs. Naked female soldiers in the shower. Next: Eating Raoul

Typical for late October. A few times it snowed when I was trick or treating as a kid.

Definitely Lot 1 pole 5. Ask anyone in Lot 1 where Pinto Ken's Tailgate is. Pinto Ken may be the most devoted fan in the NFL. He has been to every home and away regular season and playoff game since 1994 (now>250). His tailgate attracts over 100 people. Do a bowling ball shot and stay for the ketchup ceremony.

She's 55. Body Heat was half her life ago. Looks good for a 55 year old with arthritis problems. Also probably hasn't had facelifts. Lets see what some of these posters look like when they are 55.

No, I do not. I hate their guts. For people in other places, they are a group (of hundreds) of "cyclists" in SF that once a month in the summer on a Friday after work ride where they want to and totally screw up the traffic. They cross at red lights and then start beating cars when someone almost hits them. They tried to get on the Bay Bridge the wrong way one time. Had the cops out in riot gear to stop that one. Hence the name I call them. The last two words are one, but the swearing filter makes it unintelligible.

Who is he? He's a composer who wrote the theme songs for: The Addams Family, Peticoat Junction, and Green Acres. He also sang the theme for The Addams Family when the producers wouldn't pay for singers. He was 93 -RIP.

Have you run into (not literally) the Critical Mass holes yet?

Which one of the former loons on the board is Delladork?

Why isn't Rick Sanchez in jail? He should be in there for Felony DUI or Manslaughter. At a Dolphins game. he was drunk and hit someone in the lot with his car. The guy was paralyzed and died 8 months later from his injuries.

Said he shot him as he was getting dressed. If I was the guy shot, I would have grabbed my clothes and bolted out of there naked while the step dad was going for the gun.

Lee Harvey, you are a madman. When you stole that cow, and your friend tried to make it with the cow. I want to party with you, cowboy. If the two of us together, forget it.

Soren's Nexus???

This was on CNN today: Dad: Did you hear us calling you” Balloon Boy: Yes Dad: Why didn’t you come out... Balloon Boy: “Because you guys said we did this for the show” Looks like it really was a hoax. After watching the "saucer for a few minutes, I realized that he wasn't in it. On Mythbusters, they looked at the myth of a kid being carried away like a bunch of balloons. They had a 30-40 pound girl , maybe 4-6. It took HUNDREDS of normal helium filled party balloons to raise her inches off the ground. They had to do it in an old hangar.

They turn down Rush based on false libelous statements, while on the same day, they allow Fergie, a crystal meth smoking, pants peeing skank buy into the dolphins. They also let Olberman, the mysogenist (sp?), remain on the air while calling Michelle Malkin "A big mashed-up piece of meat with lipstick on it:"

I love Trudi on that show. She is so weird, I am always rolling on the floor.

Looks like Rush will have even more money to invest. The quotes attributed to him are not true and I think he can sue for slander. If these untrue quotes stop him from buying part of the Rams, he could possibly sue for damages for the millions he would have made from his share of the Rams. Go and bankrupt Jesse and Al, Rush!

When I was in a dorm about 30 years ago, my neighbor (a french student) asked his roommate to tdrive him at 11 PM to the supermarket for some bottled water (only Perrier was available then). The roommate said"Hey Frenchie, this is the United States, we can drink the tap water here." (The water fountain in the hall was just outside their room). No requests after that.

Sunday was Pulaski Day and Monday was Columbus Day. Both got screwed over.
