Whoa! William Shatner comes over to your house to watch television?

Nope rain wasn't the problem here in the city, it was the wind tore the park by my house to shreds knocked over powerlines and light poles, it was nasty they nearly had more the half the island without power.GAAAAAHHHHH DAMN YOU HURRICANE IGOR!!!!!!!! So ends my 36 hours without power or running water. Stupid ass hurricane in newfoundland.I was wondering how you were doing with the hurricane. Glad to see you made it on the other side. Any minis wash overboard?
Glad you're OK. I wondered how badly you would be affected by the storm.
Morning all! (((hugs)))
Jeremy, glad to hear you are ok. Sometimes no power can be fun! :D
Time to run. I want to get to work early to eat breakfast and enjoy my coffee warm. :D
How high's the water, Mama?
Two feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Papa?
She said, "Two feet high and risin'"
We can make it to the road in a homemade boat
'Cause that's the only thing we got left that'll float
It's already over, all the wheat and the oats
Two feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Mama?
Three feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Papa?
She said, "It's three feet high and risin'"
Well, the hives are gone, I've lost my bees
The chickens are sleepin' in the willow trees
Cow's in water up past her knees
Three feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Mama?
Four feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Papa?
She said, "It's four feet high and risin'"
Hey, come look through the window pane
The bus is comin', gonna take us to the train
Looks like we'll be blessed with a little more rain
Four feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Mama?
Five feet high and risin'
How high's the water, Papa?
She said, "It's five feet high and risin'"
Well, the rails are washed out north of town
We gotta head for higher ground
We can't come back till the water goes down
Five feet high and risin'
Well, it's five feet high and risin'

As a temporary fix, build a pole out of your minis to use that to hoist the power lines. They'll smile upon you as saviour. It'd be good for your karma. Maybe the child rearing won't be so bad if you cash in those hero points now.
Can I flag people for being d@#!#!~s?I'm sorry about The Lady in the Water...
Now apologise for Signs, The Village etc.
I was taking a shower this morning and wondered why the water pressure was so low. Same with brushing my teeth. Thought I was just too tired and didn't know the difference.
The lil lady said the same thing this morning and that the toilet water is kicking up from the sewer. Ugggghhhh.... Thank goodness we got a case of bottled water for the contractors on Tuesday. Note to self: don't make the kool-aid: it's unfit to drink.
So, since I can't post this in the Temple/Sacred Prostitutes thread, I think I'll just post it here and enrich the already rich:
Huh. Sad that something once so desired and respected is now nothing more than a street walker.
How is this sad? I'd say this is more of a culture clash than a fall from grace.
Now apologise for Signs, The Village etc.Can I flag people for being d@#!#!~s?I'm sorry about The Lady in the Water...
Hey, I liked Signs.
So the wife's company, which still has yet to pay her retention bonus, had a "safety" meeting yesterday.
This was too funny not to share.
Not one but rather two employees were let go from the school bus company. Both were drivers of the mini or short buses. The reason these, blessings upon our collective gene pools were let go you may ask? Well it was for driving the school bus through the drive though at a couple of fast food stores. Wait you may say that isn't a big deal we drive our minivan through there all the time. Well these wonderful examples of human intellect failed to realize that the bus is actually a foot and a half taller then the mini van chassis that they are made from. I bet you can already see where this is going can't you? Yep old Ronald McDonald lost an arm. Not once, no you would think after hearing about it the first time the second driver would have parked and walked in. No Ronald lost another arm too. And the best part? Brand spanking new 2010 buses; one of which has already been totaled because they backed up and hit the awning a second time and did so much damage it was not repairable.
Hey, I liked Signs.Now apologise for Signs, The Village etc.Can I flag people for being d@#!#!~s?I'm sorry about The Lady in the Water...
I liked them both. That being said you could see the "plot twist" a mile off. Lady in the water was boring, but I think part of it was the actors. The one that really got me though, that damned plant movie. I am so glad I just waisted my time and not my money.

I'm also glad they pointed out the quiet religious warfare issue, which I would have posted on if they article missed it.

Don't they have some kind of screening? Like, if you shine a light in the candidate's eyes, do they stop breathing? That might be a good test to start. :)

But Lady in the Water was sooooo meta. I told you there was a plot twist, but it wasn't the one I led you to believe it was.
Geeen-e-yus!
Hey, I liked Signs.Now apologise for Signs, The Village etc.Can I flag people for being d@#!#!~s?I'm sorry about The Lady in the Water...
So did I. My woman is like the girl in that movie; she has drinking glasses all over the house. Hopefully it doesn't conclude in the same fashion here.

Not to disparage the passengers for which those buses are intentionally purposed for (I've even done some time on them) ... but this is not only ironic ... but funny as hell! Thank you for the giggles.

Yeah. It was bad.

The only bright side to that movie was Zooey Deschanel.
<3<3<3sigh.... Zooey<3<3<3

ROTFL!!!
The jokes that came out of that movie...especially
Dude:
Lion: WTF? Did you seriously just do that?
Other Lion: What? Is he crazy? Didn't he hear what those other guys did to that idiot human who messed with us the first time?
Lion: I know. I think he's just trying to get on that...yewtoob? youhoob? That thing their cubs talk about all the time. I'm not going rise to the bai-
Dude:
Lion: F%%% this.
Oher Lion: I hear they taste like really greasy pork. Let me in on this.
I know the Katt Williams sketch was funnier, but still...GOLDEN
That said...
Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooood morning FAWLTY HOUSE!!!!!
GREAT night on the second job last night. Funny people, good conversation. I think it was because we were getting the last of the just-off-of-work crowd, so people were interested in actually talking instead of just being jerks. Then again, I might have just gotten lucky on that angle...
Going to see if I'm playing D&D tonight or not. I'm completely unsure. I'm also giving thought to dropping in on the guys on Monday and seeing if I can pick up my rakshasa/snake tiefling character up. I think I'll do that if tonight is a wash.
That's about it for me. I think the day will be boring as heck. Here's hoping it is so I can get some writing done- the Paladins of Freehold need to be finished off.

It's funny and it isn't. I've had to drive vehicles that were unsually sized before(both times it was a surprise to me), and it takes a second to realize that no, you aren't in a regular sized vehicle and can't do regular sized things like hit up a drive thru. Still, I didn't go around ripping off Ronnie's arms...TWICE.

<3<3<3sigh.... Zooey<3<3<3
But she looked bored and disinterested in the movie too. It could be because she had to try to generate chemistry with Marky "how is it I'm still getting roles in Hollywood films" Mark.

That was my wife's biggest problem with the film. I tried to use the famed War of the Worlds out, but she didn't buy it.

Yeah, War of the Worlds had the excuse that they couldn't know everything about us before they invaded. Whereas if you're an alien race bent on invasion, and have a severe "allergy" to water, wouldn't you write off Earth right away? And they'd have to stay away from Seattle, Brazil and any other place with a rainforest nearby... Or a really humid climate.
I mean, I'm no military genius, but why would you invade a world where even the atmosphere could hurt you? (I'm looking at YOU, Avatar.)

To be fair, if they were severely allergic to it to the point of death, chances are it does not show up in their ecosystem. Most people know enough not to go swimming in pools of battery acid. However, we do not have a massive lake of it that occurs naturally that everyone avoid. Also, despite the fact that we are a planet that is mostly water, we do not live in the areas covered by water- maybe they were attempting the same? I agree water was a weak weakness, he should have gone with something a little more esoteric, but I think that they didn't know the effect it would have on them.
As for Avatar...that's a little more dicey. Humans KNOW what's dangerous and should have avoided the planet or simply massdrivered the blue peeps into oblivion.

Morning folks. Hope today goes well for everyone. I just want my work day to be over since tonight is Fringe premier night! WOOHOO!!! And I think I'll also watch s*~& My Dad Says with William Shatner.Whoa! William Shatner comes over to your house to watch television?
:)
That's right! And after the show we usually go out to local bars to pick up chicks. But we don't drink, because last time he got so bad he started accusing dudes of being "spying Klingon bastards" and kicking the s#%! out of them.

SWEET! I've been ignored. Oddly enough, I didn't even consider it one of my more hostile posts. Heck, I even like the guy most of the time.Eh?
Papa-DRB, in the latest Hero Lab thread.
|
|
I'm not saying it's a lot of rain or anything, but Lowe's is running low on cubits of wood and there's a couple of folks running around gathering animals two by two.
Also, I drove by the office of my insurance agent at lunch and noticed that the parking lot surrounding the building is now a 2' deep lake.
Oh, how I'm missing the mountains I grew up in. Because, y'know, there's HIGH LAND. Unlike Minnesota where the "mountain" peaks at 250'.

Yeah, that's why I tend to stay away from those sections. To many folks who are waaaayyy to sensitive. Still, I can imagine I've made an ignore list or 5, as well, which is fine by me.

Yea I just went to lunch and it was coming down pretty good. AS long as I can get home tonight everything should be good at least my house is on a small hill.:)

Wow, Shatner is still bad ass after all these years!
Wow!!! What an nice find. I picked up a copy of H. G. Wells The Outline of History, Volumes I & II for $11. Granted, they were missing the dust jackets and very slightly dinged up, but they are still in good shape.
So, where'd Wolfthulhu and Justin Franklin go? I haven't seen either of them in weeks.
Taig, if you keep blocking us how will you know all of the nasty things we are saying about you behind your back.:)
