My local rock station on the radio switched formats in the middle of the day on Friday. They are right now playing christmas music with an add on the station to join us after the holiday season for our new easy listening format. They have no Dj's right now. Just music and a few adds. Christmas music duiring the day and hard rock at night. No Alice Cooper, No Bob & Tom.

That sucks. It should happen next week for us.

I'm personally sick of the "clever" alternate names like Burger Thing and Taco Hell that people like to use. Yeah, it was kinda funny 10 years ago!

And yet some, like FedEx or IHOP became so popular that they suplanted the actual names of the buisnesses. In the case of the two I mentioned, the companies even apropriated the names for themselves.

I grew up around Marines. I learned words that vene make sailors blush.

A sailor and a marine walk into the head. After relieving themselves, the sailor walks over and starts washing his hands. The marine heads for the door.

The sailor lets out a sigh of disgust and says, "In the Navy, they teach us to wash our hands after using the head."

The marine smirks and replies over his shoulder, "In the Marines, they teach us not to pee all over our hands."

Christmas trees are obviously religious - they have "Christ" right in their name.

Duh.

An admiral, a marine general and an Air Force general were arguing over who had the bravest troops. Finally the admiral decides to settle this so he calls a sailor over. " I want you to climb to the top of the base flagpole and then jump off," the admiral says. The sailor salutes and they all watch as he climbs to the top of the flagpole and jumps off. "That's nothing," the Marine general says, "watch this." He calls a a Marine over and says, "I want you to climb to the top of the flight tower and jump off." The Marine salutes and is soon falling off the control tower. The Air Force general just smiles. "That's nothing," he says as he waves an airman over. "I want you to climb to the top of the radio tower over there and jump off," the general says. The airman salutes and says "with all due respect sir, go to hell." Th general dismeisses tha airman and says "gentlemen, that is real courage."

LOL, Jack. I've been doing my best to avoid any writing weighed down by its own fear and ignorance. Thus I haven't read any of my own lately.

Mairkurion, Thanks for the kind words. :) Ed's getting over a really lousy case of flu and I have a rotator cuff torn every which way. That's what I get for saving orphans in my down time. Superheroism just doesn't seem worth it since the spandex stopped fitting right. People just laugh when they see me leap into danger. You won't have Superfluous Man to kick around anymore.

Mairkurion {tm} (Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber), Wed, Nov 4, 2009, 02:19 PM

I hope no one takes my teasing as anti-vegan posts. I'm just glad all the fruits and nuts of the world are leaving many more innocent creatures for me to chew on before we make all their habitats uninhabitable and then I have to sit with Rone on Tofu Day.

Seriously though, Rone, sorry to hear about the injury. Dang. Double dang. :(

Thanks. I've always bounced back from injuries. This one? No such luck.

I mentioned awhile ago getting a case of podcaster shoulder almost in jest, but just such a repetitive stress injury may be partially to blame. That and a lot of irresponsibly heavy lifting past the initial signs I was damaged. What an anemic way to hurt oneself. <G>

I don't believe you! Everyone knows that there's only one fruit cake per country, and it keeps getting passed around from family to family.
