The court system must be a little different in SA. Like, here in the US, you have to assemble a jury with no prior knowledge of the case, right? So, then you bring in an accused murderer with no legs, and tell them he's an olympic track star? :shock: They'd think somebody hired Tommy Flanagan to def...

Oh, WOW! You can SEE them BREATHING!!

They're fuzzy, they're fuzzy, they're fuzzy. . . .

How 'bout a jar of Nordic Flaming Goat Cheese hot sauce for Pegasus wings? *plonk*

I've been claiming for years that Ikea is Swedish for "rancid little meatballs."

But today I heard the EU has announced that the correct translation is "horse d'oeuvres."

i doubt that that was the ONLY reason for it... i'm not sure if i'm correct (prolly not, but...) aren't whale penis's shaped like a corkscrew or some weird shape?? the car company played along with the greenies only because they couldn't get the right fit from the final tanned shape of the leather ...

Hey, if the cousins's parents were like him . . . well, you can see the problem here.

Well, any family that shoots typewriters for sport can't be all bad.

(*clink*clink*clink*clink*clink* - there, I paid the Pun Jar for both of us, out of admiration for your excellent shaggy-dogfish story)

Thanks!

Won't get me to rise to debate. You've got no proof.

Long as we're talking about fish. . . . A lot of younger folks don't remember the mighty Susquehanna atomic carp, but back in the early '80s, the river was full of them between Three Mile Island and Peach Bottom. You could tell people who spent a lot of time fishing for them, because they always had...

Got me a basic Tracfone cell, Samsung T301G slider phone. Lucked out, because I'm about half deaf, and Consumer Reports says this phone has as good voice quality as any mobile phone available. I can hear it fine, which has not been the case with a couple of landline portable phones I've had. Have a ...

Cool - so you can set, clamp, ink, and use a hand roller to test type? Nah, that letterpress stuff took real skill. I keyed galleys for offset printing, first on obsolete IBM variable-space typewriters, later on obsolete photocomp equipment, then on PCs. Now they run a bunch of conversion scripts o...

Does not sound good.

Drank enough screwdrivers my first weekend in college to last me several lifetimes, and have not had another since.
