Seeing talk of high temps: Here in Philly we got into the mid-90s today with unusually high humidity. Then some clouds and rain moved in this evening to cool stuff down.

What's it like down there now?

Beayutiful riding weather. As it is year-round in the Great State of Texas. A veritable biker paradise.

Hell, got rained on comin home last night and didn't care a bit.

A trial or burden, maybe- and that's a longshot, and that would be from life, not necessarily God. But a punishment? Not just no, Hell No.

And yes, I would have probably giggled at your grandpa singing the witch doctor song in church. And I was an acolyte.

This was a LONG time ago. The Episcopal church was a different place back then.

Among the categories of employees who are not included in the state coverage are . . . workers mainly engaged in the range production of livestock (but only if they are being paid a salary that is equivalent to 40 times the minimum wage per week).

(Emphasis mine.)

What do you think this means?

Edit: "State coverage" refers to minimum wage, not something else.

I think it means: Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.

Spoiler:
Actually, I think it means that if your annual income is 40 x minimum wage per week. For whatever reason, agricultural employees are often not covered by government programs/min. wages/whatever and it's been like that at least since the New Deal. I don't know why.

EDIT: Fixed my quote and added musical link.

For people of a like mind alone:
@Doodlebug: I know! I kinda wish Oregon would decide to come out on the forefront. They've reversed on all the good things farmers do, so they might as well start on some of the bad things.

People need to own up to their prudishness. It's not necessarily a bad thing, and thinking someone is somehow lacking in intimate company, morals or ethics because they enjoy viewing fantasy bombshells with impossible breasts on their books isn't necessarily a good thing.
I don't recall the OP of that thread saying anything like that and yet you have all these "high-minded" people making snide remarks about him and his beliefs. Some people need to grow up.
What beliefs did he even express? That some pictures were inappropriate for *his* kids? Sheesh. Somebody needs to take a board with a nail to that thread. Way to make a welcome wagon.
I'd agree more if his kids showed up at home sneaking that stuff into the house. However, he's the one who is buying it and wants to bring his kids and family into something that he feels has too much cheesecake-y content. I also think the situation would be different if he didn't want his wife and kids to play this game and felt he had to hide the books around the house or something- there's an OLD Dragon Magazine letter to the editor to that effect. I think his situation is more than bit weird, but then again, I don't have kids.
He loves the game and wants to share it with his family but has reservations about the art. How is that weird?
I dunno. Something in the way the protestation was put forth. It's hard for me to put into words.

Momentary fear that somebody was going to take your boobs away? I had that once. What a pain it is to get rid of a body after you've broken the neck.

Yeah, but this is more than different. Maybe The Reformed Episcopal Church? I think we shipped most of the Calvinists off thataway in the 19th century.

BTW, where is that Really Important Post of yours referenced before? I can't find it.

Beer and country music often go well together.

Well I think that some of the art straddles the "line" yet I have not seen any that crosses that said line. If my children were younger I might have an issue with it. I do keep some of my dragon magazines and any Heavy Metal magazines away from my youngest. My oldest is not 15 and sees worse when out with his friends than anything ever printed by Paizo.

As usual CJ, thank you for your thoughts.

So, I just ran out to the convenience store for a pack of cigarettes.

"Good evening," I said to the attendant, "Could I have a pack of Marlboro Lights."

He said something indecipherable..."selling skinners."

"Huh?" I asked.

"Pedophiles," he replied.

"Uh..............................I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Wow. You're real intelligent."

Now, my initial impulse was to punch him in the face, but I have learned to distrust my instinct for violence. However, the more I think about it, the more I think I was insulted for no reason.

Can anyone help me figure out what the hell just happened? Something about Marlboro Lights I don't know? Or should I have punched him in the face?

of course it might have been in the initial mumbling you did not hear, so that was not correct of me, forgive and forget. Little Spaz isn't worth your time.
