  1. has doomlet hacked your account?
  2. I've always called em "rock bars"
  3. I'd hang a poster with the Seven Tenets of the Satanic Church right next to the 10 commandments. Honestly, these don't sound so bad: I One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason. II The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions. III One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone. IV The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own. V Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs. VI People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused. VII Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
  4. Saw Jaws at the old drive-in on Ben White. Hard to rank, but definitely in my top five favorite movies.
  5. Dreadlocks just found out the meaning of "When keeping it real goes wrong."
  6. I agree to all this 100% However....... I celebrate anything that makes that carpetbagging, weasel-faced, smarmy little bitch look like a dipshit.
  7. well that is shocking. OK, well, not that shocking
  8. This is true for all ant species. This fact is not "according to Dr. Debbie Castle." And there is a hot tip for the day: If you are allergic to fire ant stings, carry an epipen. So what else is bullshit, bad science, or shitty journalism in that article?
  9. Poll is bullshit. "Meteor" or "Giant Sinkhole" is not an option.
  10. Who knew trade deals could be so hard?
  11. Of course. He's also going after Columbia because they didn't buy land from him back in the 80s (90s?) when they wanted to expand their campus/open a satellite campus in lower Manhattan. He's also going after Harvard because they didn't accept his cyber-genius son.
  12. Virgin, Emirates any asian airline if you suffer from yellow fever
  13. "Contrails" is a contraction of "condensation trails". They are formed by water vapor in the jet engines' exhaust hitting cold air and condensing around particulate contaminants also in the exhaust. A contrail is literally a long, thin, man-made cloud. If they want to ban contrails, then they either need to ban exhaust from jet engines, or ban cold air at high altitudes. If they are going to ban either of those, I hope it isn't until after a few weeks have passed, as I'm flying to NO in a week.
  14. In your eagerness, you obviously missed the "British Airways" part of the "British Airways" flight attendant. They got some battle axes working on BA.
  15. Maybe they'll all be deported and we won't have to worry about them anymore.
  16. Which ever axis stupidity is on will have to use a logarithmic scale.
  17. What do they have against windows?
  18. who knew it could be so hard?
  19. I have a friend with a small plane. I've ridden in it probably 10 times in 20 years or so. We're both nearing 60, and I've begun to wonder what I would do if he had a massive coronary suddenly I mean if that happened in a car, I could steer from the passenger seat, shift to Neutral, maybe use the emergency brake to slow down.
  20. I think I could handle the cold. The 24 hours of darkness in the winter might get old though.
  21. Not sure where to post this. I wonder if Greenland accepts American seeking asylum? https://www.newsweek.com/greenland-trump-permit-extraction-2075673 Greenland Signs Lucrative Minerals Deal with Europe in Blow to Trump Greenland has sparked international attention since President Trump expressed his interest in acquiring the Arctic island rich in minerals, oil and natural gas. Greenland's Mineral Resources Minister Naaja Nathanielsen said that U.S. interest in the island has not resulted in any investment and the deal signals that business dialog with European partners was progressing more quickly.
  22. Maybe she meant 24 hours in a single year? fixy
