I would be there right now.

My 5 year old son came up with a new joke (at least he claims to have made it up on his own).

What croaks but doesn't hop?

A: A one-legged frog

The oxy thing was the first time I ever felt a flicker of compassion for Rush Limbaugh

I love the irony that the ACLU came to his defense.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

ION, the Daily Puppy.

Weimaraners are SUCH beautiful dogs. (Though the GwtW names -- just a leeeeetle bit cheesy.)

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

We should get better mileage in this thread.

I thought that was a myth! Or at least I didn't think there was an appreciable difference between 55 and 60.

Half an hour, and I am in burrito land.

I was in burrito land earlier this week. It is a very tasty place.

Weimaraners are SUCH beautiful dogs.

Agreed, but they are just a tad spooky looking too. I think it's the eyes.

Punishingly Intricate

Turned out he wasn't on coke. Oops. (eta: some folks did the intervention thing)

What was it??!!

And, how embarassing for the interventionists!

All the buffista babies & kids in costumes are killing me. So freaking cute!

This was me on H'ween.

I went as my friend Johnny Zebra who was supposed to come as the guitarist in my band and, evidently, if he did that another friend was going to come as me. But Johnny Zebra couldn't make it so I didn't get to see what dressing up as me would mean. I'm really curious though.

Behaving like me that night would have meant drinking all the Jack & Gingers and being Inappropriate.

It probably is! I was just speaking for The Man.

Although, for big bulky Hank (1987 FJ60 Land Cruiser), there is a huge difference in mpg between say, 50, and 70. Drops like a stone.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What was it??!!

I guess nothing at all. (Just his personality - very social and outgoing, and bad with money.)

But years later he started doing meth....
