    Here we fucking go again. Have people not learned anything? 

    I'm not sure who your comment is directed at.  It appears to me that the qualification is basically saying "this policy is not retroactive".

    What's up with the hate-boner for vocal fry? It's how they talk, why do you give a shit about the tones coming out of their mouth more than the words?

    Oh, it's a mindset fully put upon the right by talk radio.  The current theory is that vocal fry equates to mental illness.

    These fuckers will stop at nothing.

  3. She may have great legs, but Carrie Underwood makes worthless music and is highly overrated as a singer.  Zero soul.  Blech.

    (tell us what you really think, jj)

  4. Not that I have anything against smoking brisket, but it's really unnecessary if you're trying to make chili.  I'd start with a basic mix of ground or diced beef (chuck, sirloin, and even brisket if you know a butcher who will grind it for you -- HEB will), and maybe some ground pork.  Screw that up a few times before going all in with the good stuff.

  5. $2.1B for vacations over 20 years.

    $105M per year.

    $288K per day, every day.

     

    Let that sink in.  Right wing nutjobs are currently buying into the theory that Obama had a plan to soak the US government for $288K per day, 365 days per year.  No time off from vacations, $288K PER DAY.

    I weep for America.  Jesus.  Do some math you fools.

  6. Oops . . . just saw this thread.  I grew up in Missouri and wrestled in HS.  I was merely average, never got close to State or anything like that.  Our wrestling coach was the assistant football coach and didn't know anything about wrestling, so all we did was lift weights and listen to him scream at us about "PRIDE".  We were strong as hell, though.  I still have a neck.

    Years later I was shooting the shit at a party with a friend who is an Austin musician of some renown and he mentioned he was state champ of Rhode Island, in a slightly higher weight class than I wrestled.  The beer was flowing so we decided to go a round in the front yard.  I pinned him.  Rhode Island, please.

    Most AP English teachers can suck a dick. A smart kid can knock out their math and science homework in maybe 30 minutes for each class. Social studies might give you some light reading a couple times a week. AP Spanish will give you some vocab or worksheets. Here comes AP English teacher assigning 10 chapters of Wuthering Heights and 3 essays by Thursday. English seemed to have the greatest delta in workload between the honors/AP vs on-level versions of the class. 

    Which HS?  I've seen AP Physics get pretty insane.  Summer assignments on AP English, too, I have to admit.
