Thanks. Yeah, it's pitiful. A religion class should be mandatory. See also Religious Literacy by Stephen Prothero.
Maybe students would take it more seriously then 'cause the last religion class I took my classmates were a bunch of dunderheads.

I hope you and your dog feel better soon.

I miss having a dog. Ours passed away back in March. She used to chase bumblebees and yellowjackets. Even after getting stung she'd go back for more. I sure miss that goof.

It's ashamed Scottish Breakfast tea is much harder to get over here. Saw it various places in London, brought some back from Taylor's of Harrogate.

By golly, you're right! I can get English and Irish Breakfast Teas, but not Scottish! Now I have something to get up in arms and blue in the face over. Excuse me, I have to find my kilt and dust my claymore.

Why on earth do they do that? *sigh* Maybe this will teach her, but I doubt it.

I read that yesterday in the AOL news that pops up when I open the internet and wanted to post it but couldn't think of a good place to do so. It appears that I missed the call by JM and you nailed it.

Sometimes my opinions can make people uncomfortable, so I've spoilered this one.

** spoiler omitted **

Speaking of Chick, this is my favorite one out of all of them. Hopefully you catch why it makes me crack up. Heh.

Aztrucomon was here gaming at the beginning of the month, and I was surprised that he had completely forgotten about Jack Chick and about our making fun of Dark Dungeons comic back when we were in school. So I looked it up online and we did a dramatic reading of it in parts. Man, it's been awhile since we laughed that hard. Of course, humorous quotations of it popped up during the Memorial Gameathon at appropriate points.

Excellent! I highly approve.

I remember the day I first saw that tract. My mother handed it to me and told me to read it because she felt D&D was "serious business". If only she could predict what was yet to come.

Pfft... He shakes of that like a dog shakes off water.

The nightmares begins when he thinks about Zardoz

Same here. For the longest time, I was in an apartment and worked all day, so didn't have one. Then I moved in with the missus, and she was allergic. Now she's no longer allergic, but still doesn't like dogs. My plan now is to wait for another 5 years or so, then get the spawn to beg her for one. I just have to be patient.....

This is wrong on so many levels. Surprised I'm the 1st to point that out.

I think it was the buzzing that my dog hated. But then again she'd bark at helicopters and birds as they flew over the yard. Very territorial she was. And she kept the dang bunnies and squirrels out of my gardens! I needs me a new puppy. And no, not some nekkid bulldog.

Dog is much less swollen, and I am up and running again, thank you for asking. I had tea and cereal, woot! The day is definitely improving!

gettin' nosy

What kinda tea? What kinda cereal? I is hungry. :3

Twining's Irish Breakfast Tea (properly done with sugar and milk) and cinnamon Life cereal. Not much of either, but enough.

moves in with Treppa and SP

Hey guys, what's up. I'm here primarily for your tea (sans the sugar as that is heresy) and your cinnamon Life cereal. My wife has prepared a note for you that states I can live here, primarily because it means more Life(both cinnamon and original) cereal for her.

Scarab Sages

runs and hides his box of Life cereal


Almost 8 hours since my last dose of Tylenol! And on a rainy day! But, it has been kinda quiet at work. I'll take it tho!

Scarab Sages

Mmmmmm....Tylenol


Funny cross-marketing idea - (probably been done before)

Show a box of Life cereal on the side of a milk carton. MISSING - My Life

or

Have You Seen Me? (pic of Freehold) I stole your box of Life cereal.

You can get it on Amazon, but not finding it in stores.

BTW, Zen Tara Tea in Maryland hooked me up with two kinds of Kenyan tea. Now there's some strong stuff.

Oh really? Sounds interesting. I'll have to look it up at our local tea store. I prefer tea you can stand a spoon in - straight up. With sugar and cream, it's a meal... I like some of the exotics, too, taste acquired in college. Lapsang souchong and formosa oolong are two faves.


AWRIGHT folks, I'm off for now. Here's hoping I'm able to visit with my mom in peace and quiet without a deluge of rain falling 'pon my head.

Kept trying to do Lapsong Souchang. Just can't take it. It's like drinking smoke...and not the good kind of smoke.


Sitting here eating and reading posts....man it is hard to keep up some days.

So I assume we start complaining to PMG about the double posting the second he gets back, if not sooner.

Lapsang SOUCHONG! Laspang SOUCHONG! Lapsang SOUCHONG!

God, I love that tea. So smokey...

Yeah, it's like drinking the smoke from a grill, only better. I can see why Mairk (or anyone) might have a tough time with it.

And welcome to the house. You'll find the rent very reasonable. Don't mind the dogs or birds. You're going to have quite the bicycle ride to work, though!

Yeah off today...still hard to keep up and soon I shall be out with the kids to take them to scouts. So I am sure 75 or more posts will happen during that time.

I posted as well.


Moff Rimmer: Great pics as usual. Sorry to hear about the extra work. If you are a salaried employee, I'd "highly suggest" you (and your co-workers if you can anonymously arrange it) document your extra hours. There are many labor laws on the books to protect against employers abusing the salary exemption.

The Taig: Congrats yet again on the KQ critter! But curses on you for reminding me of the horrors of blue waffle!

Emperor7: Keep on healing and hanging in there. Happy birthday to your sapling too.

Juju Amberzombie: Awesome work in the Kingmaker maps!

Celestial Healer: Sorry to hear about the accident, but glad you are both physically OK. Unless hacky sickgirl infected you with some plague.

You should start by showing her cute, fuzzy puppies. Nobody can resist puppies. Then they grow up, but by that time, it's too late to take them back.

Same principle as children, sorta.

You should try a ferrocat (felis ferrous) or dire ferrocat (felis ferrous ferocitas) instead. Or a ferroferret (mustela ferrous).


With all the double posting, we should be able to blitz the hell outta this thread.

I thought of that, but I was afraid it'd figure out how to magnetize itself. Then it'll be open to open the fridge door, steal my car keys, and degauss my computers.

Don't worry, if it tries, it'll get stuck to the fridge door, where it will be doomed to an eternity of holding up your Zardoz poster.

Sporadic board bug. Your post will take a loooong time to go up, and will end up doubled. I try to delete the dupes, but missed one because they bracketed somebody else's post (last page).

EDIT: Now *two* pages ago. Nekkid invalidated pointers for TotP
