Make A Random Statement About Something Nobody Should Care About

Congratulations Bob on overtaking Indy as our top smiter.

Well, my work here is done. Off to brave my in-laws' house before we skip off to my cousin's party celebrating his conversion to Judaism. Wow, my mother in law first and then a house full of wine-drinking Jewish people. Should be....fun. 

Haud ignota loquor.

Gotta say, Once Upon A Time In The West is pretty cool, but the music constantly seems all wrong for the given scene in which it's being used.................

There were SO many Jews tonight I thought my rosary was gonna catch fire. I kept getting introduced with the encouraging post-script, "And she owns Israeli bonds."

All these older people would then pat my hand and tell me, "Ah, good girl, so buy s'more! I'll text you when our temple has its next bond drive...."

Lots of CPAs, lawyers, doctors, business owners, people more successful than me. I betcha the collective IQ there was 140. I guess if you're picking a religion to join, my cousin is in good company.

It was a fun evening.

True story.

In first grade there was this boy whose name was I think Franklin, and on the first few days of class he kept telling us we were going to get "butt germs" off the seats, and he'd sit with his right leg crooked under him, bent at the knee, and finally the teacher saw this and told him to sit right, and he refused, and she came back and pulled his leg out right so he'd have to sit on his butt but he threw a fit and got out of the desk and said he wasn't going to sit like that or he'd get butt germs. The teacher sent him to the counselor then and he came back the next day with a cushion and was allowed to sit on that cushion the rest of the school year, but Franklin talked non-stop to us about "butt germs" we were supposedly in danger of getting off the bleachers and swings and our desks, and he took his cushion to the library and lunch and everyplace else in school with him. I guess in retrospect he had some sort of Sheldon Cooper-like associative disorder but we all just summed it up by saying he was "mental."

It just occurred to me; Whoever predicted jetpacks & flying cars didn't predict the FAA .....

sweating off 13 pounds is NOT a good thing.

The ethics instructor killed himself this evening and there's something profound in that irony.

[indianasmith]

America is a tough place for ethical people these days.

Guess it was one sensitivity class too many.

Germans pretty much invented the Pretzel, but they do not dip pretzels in mustard (they think that is disgusting).

Maybe this should've been posted in the "facts" thread

I used to be a big fan of Revolution (2012-2014)
In hindsight, one of the things that kinda bugs me, was how most soldiers had to use muzzle load rifles because brass cartridge bullets were hard to come by.
This, of course changed midway through the series, & everybody had machine guns.

So what gets me is, I've seen & read up on a few more Westerns since then, & now I can't help but wonder why they didn't have any Le Mats, Dragoons, Walkers, Tranters, etc.

My new boss offered to come mow and weedeat my lawn for me before my daughter's wedding.

I think he's a keeper!
