[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Trudy, they basically just decided recently (some study?) that OTC cough suppressants don't do jack. So...my Russian coworker would suggest vodka...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy Birthday, Beverly! Wishing you the happiest of days and years. And much pie.

Mom and dad are coming over to keep me company today and get some work done. Dad and I are going to do survey data analysis. Should be fun and interesting. Mom is gonna work on her quilt while we work. Should be good. I'm making yummy dinner to contribute to the day.
Sounds like a lovely way to spend a housebound Sunday, vw. And I am sure that they are getting the better deal with you making dinner.

Ooooh, did I remember yesterday to congratulate Cass on her leap of faith? I meant to...
Thanks!

In WTF news ... Asshat.

Seriously, do they not realize that actual people are not only involved but sitting right there??

Any firm opinions on OTC cough supressants?
They don't work for me and they make me hallucinate. I am of the opinion that they suck.

Frozen vodka or hot sake. I've had good luck with the sake route.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The "no darn good" was our fear. Rats.

Cassie, not for nothin, but it seems to me like restrictor plate racing is not such a good idea and maybe they should just field fewer cars.

Of all the things I can explain, the rules of restrictor plate racing is not one of them... Or the reasoning. Or the why. Or why I wasn't offered the kool-aid at least.

Sheesh... An hour. Why aren't there cars on the track? This is why I never watch these things live at the beginning. I should order me a pizza.

Cars? On a track? And when?

Are you meaning to imply that I am watching a race?

I am merely asking a hypothetical question in regards to the size of the grid when using restrictor plates.

I am offended, sir.

Yeah pizza. And beer too -- just embrace it.

43 cars. Same as always. Well 43 start. Significantly fewer finish.

I don't think I can get the beer delivered. Which is a shame.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Unless your counter is in a place where they allow codeine, like canada, europe, asia, australia...pretty much everywhere but the US.

So are the restrictor plates because of the track? Or do they just like to do some of each?

Oh, and bump drafting seems sorta cool.

Somewhere I saw that what the study actually shows was that it only treats the symptoms, it doesn't actually make the cough any better. Like treating the symptoms is nothing. Must've been a slow news day.
