I have three favorites, and that's one of them. The other two are pecan pie and tira misu.

Present company excepted, Craigslist is the last resort of the scum of the earth. For every normal person posting at Craigslist, there are probably ten lunatics, sociopaths, and/or scammers trying to make a dishonest buck. It's a 99.9% waste of time, in my opinion.

I'm having a snow day too. But I hate snow. I want to live on a beach on a Caribbean island, in a shanty with a coconut tree out front.

Hey, no hostility here, no questioning your mental prowess, and no speculation about why you would start a thread like this. Just an observation that you're coming off as an immature, shallow snob and your reputation will suffer if you keep it up. And if you can't see why, then I really can't...

Nah, I don't think so. I don't even remember why some of these things are funny.

I might have misunderstood mammers' situation. My experience with people who want to study art is a little different. A lot of times they're people who are into it for the pure joy of creating something, and it bothers them to have to worry about the mundane "commercial" aspect of their trade...

This thing has got to be at least eighteen years old! A venerable classic.

This is just my opinion: If you want to go to college, great. It's a good idea to get a degree in something, just for the greater lifetime earning potential if nothing else. If you want to be an artist, that's great too. But don't go to college to become an artist. It's not necessary. To...

Political parties back then weren't anything like what they are today, but can you imagine what this would be like today? The President and Vice President being from different parties? It'd be nuts! Imagine Gore as W's VP! Or McCain as Obama's!

That was my favorite part too.

I never warmed up to American Dad, still hate it. And it's hard to imagine Cleveland carrying his own show, but you never know.

"I find that the sexiest part of a woman is the boobies."

I'm 33.

Another interesting note about the language: It's more closely related to Hungarian than to any of the Scandinavian languages. And Hungarian evolved from the language spoken by the descendants of Genghis Khan. So you could credibly call Finnish an Asian language. What, you mean the Finnish...

Finland, Finland, Finland, The country where I want to be, Pony trekking or camping, Or just watching TV. Finland, Finland, Finland. It's the country for me. You're so near to Russia, So far from Japan, Quite a long way from Cairo, Lots of miles from Vietnam. Finland, Finland, Finland, The...

I've never seen that before. I'll definitely be sending that link to a few people. Hilarious.

Again, thanks to baldadonis for organizing this whole thing. It was good to put some faces to the names I see here. Looking forward to the next munch.

Yeah, that was fun. Some of the people I met were travtick, nyte, Slacker, Bride of Dracula and her husband, Jimmyboy, Mike (whose screenname I can't remember, it'll come to me), and apologies to anyone else I forgot. Thanks to Dave for organizing the whole thing, and looking forward to seeing...

Find the right woman, get married, settle down, be a good father, etc. Go on a couple of long sailing voyages. I'd like to go island-hopping in the Caribbean for about six months. That'll be practice for the big one - the Pacific. I'd want to hit Rapa Nui (Easter Island), Bora Bora, Tahiti...

Every technology comes with a price. We lost a little romance then they started laying telegraph cable. We lost a little more when the telephone replaced the telegraph. And when they invented the answering machine. And when cellphones replaced landlines. And when texting replaced speaking...
