Driving to work yesterday I passed a cop giving someone in a red toyota a speeding ticket.
Why should someone who does not obey the speed limit be allowed to give someone who does not have the "BankAmericard", a ticket.
Seriously, when is the last time that you saw a cop drive the speed limit? And they are the ones enforcing this little vendetta?

Isn't our English language weird?
I believe the general rule is I before E except after C, right?
What about weird? Or, weight, weir, and weisneheimer?
Should it be I before E except after C and W?
It's amazing that anything ever gets communicated rightly.

Sharing something here....
I was raised by my Grandmother(paternal). She passed away at age 90 in 1999.
Her last 3 weeks on this earth were not comfortable for her. I spent a goodly amount of her last 3 months with her. She told me that she was ready to go. She wanted to go.
About 3 days before she died, we were talking and she...

Having a hard time finding you Seventyfive. Keeps taking me back to the home page and I could not find you in Hookup.
Anyway....
A couple of things got me on this train...
1. I will have been married for 9 years this April. My wife and I have been together for a little over 10 years. I have found myself acting in certain ways simply because that is the way I have always acted given certain situations.
My response is not correct anymore. I am changing, as we all do over time, but I'm acting the same way.
How much of what I do is simply by rote? How do we be awake and alive enough all the time that we engage with our surroundings and not just exist?
2. My father-in-law may have cancer. His white blood count went from 11k, up and up to 60k. They are running tests and have ruled out a lot but don't know exactly what is wrong. He just seems a little different when he talks now. Like things have different importance to them. Why are we not like that all the time?

i am sorry to hear about your father-in-law...i hope for all the best...
people say it's good to take a step back once in a while and look at things...almost like an out of body experience--but just long enough to see where you are in relation to other things, since most of the time we are so tied up in our lives we cannot see the outside...
i am around...here and there...we'll be in touch

I did go on the internet to find the lyrics and I did find this:
Great Green Gobs
Great green gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Chopped-up dirty birdies' feet;
Great green gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts
And me without a spoon.
to the tune of The Old Gray Mare She Ain't What She Used to Be
Somehow, I remember different...

and the lost verses:
French fried eye-balls,
Rolling down a muddy street,
And I forgot my spoon.
...But I got my straw!
Great green gobs of greasy grimey gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat,
Saturated birdy feet,
All wrapped up in
All purpose porpoise pus.
And me without a spoon!
Gee whiz! (but I've got a straw)
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Chopped up dirty birdy feet.
A one pound jar of all purpose porpoise pus
Swimming in pink lemonade.
Scab sandwich, spit on top
Monkey vomit, camel snot
Eagle eye and cookie goo
Made a sandwich just for you.

I remember the line " Chopped-up baby parakeet " instead of chopped-up dirty biries feet ?
Still one of my all time favorite songs . Ahhhh...memories , sweet memories .
Rent Caddyshack . Bill Murrray sings the song while dropping explosives in the gopher's hole .
Who remembers the rest of this childhood song?
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat, Oh what fun to eat....
Anyone?

C'mon....how could I not know?....I used to scream that song at the top of my lungs as a kid....I was a very strange child...How 'bout this one?
the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,
the worms play pinochle on your snout.....
do you know the rest of that one?
hope all is well with you....

I know that everyone has heard the old saying by Anonymous: He who hesitates is lost.
Have you heard this one?
A ship cannot sail on yesterday's wind.
(Who said that? George Wisniewski?)

Yeah , that hesitation thing has come back to haunt me on more than one occasion . I'm still trying to determine when I SHOULD and when I SHOULDN'T hesitate . I usually wind up doing it backwords though . 
jordyn:
yeah i have that second one some where. It's so true in our lives we often hesitate for fear that all will be lost, but i found that even if you jump and miss there often a soft landing.
But as way of qoutes there is this one " when fate closes one door many others open"
what are we to do with contradicting quotes?

My new work situation is a little strange.
My Boss is in a different office. He does not even give me projects to work on.
There is another Manager in my office that gives me projects and who is responsible for me being there but he is not my boss.
Efficient, no?
Anyway, the manager in my office had a birthday and we all went...

Unlike a few people at my job that I could name, I *really* don't like it when 'the fecal matter hits the air distribution device'.

Hey,
Does anyone know why birds decide they want to swoop in front of your car? Long stretch of road. No birds in sight and then they swoop in front of your car.
Happens all the time, doesn't it?
I hit one the other day. Heard the thump, saw the poof of feathers.
Is this just natural selection at work here? Did all the other...

As for the flag of the SG Empire , your suggestion is pretty good . We'll go with that I think . At least for now .

Nah all birds are out to get you, havent you ever seen "Birds"

I had a rental car over the weekend. I drove like a complete ass.
As for your suggestion about the tracking collar's...BRILLIANT!!!! That's why you're the guy in charge of thinking stuff up .
