Ya think Riddick will pull it off this time?

You thought you were gonna get something classic, like "Dancing Queen"? Ha ha!

Thank Gaia.  My physical chemistry teacher once played "Dancing Queen" before a lecture.  I thought I had left this mortal plane and ended up in Ted Kennedy's new digs that day. 

 I'm half-assing this and only have 20 minutes left to post because I stumbled into a date tonight.

Don't let her see your ONT.

Posted by: steevy at January 17, 2011 10:18 PM (uuvDd)

It's good that he has a hobby.

Fingers crossed.

You know the problem with that part of the fight?  Speedy McSpiritman can move crazy fast, but the big spear is just a big spear.  It can't haul ass around at lightning speed.

You right this ONT sucks.  I'm going to pumice my feetsies.

I have a terrible addiction to the Pedi-egg.  Sometimes, I can't stop and I don't just rub away the calluses on my feet, I rub my feet raw. 

hi all
hey Rajiv, how exactly do you "stumble" into a date?
that seems weird

You're walking around the produce section of the grocery store and all of a sudden, you notice that your foot is sticking to the floor.  You look on the bottom of your shoe, and there is a date stuck on the sole.

How are you doin?

hey runningrn what does it mean if your achilles' tendon feels unusually tight?
(on both feet)

Well, crap!  That's not good.  Do you warm up, then stretch, then do your workout, then stretch at the end? 

You might want to apply some moist heat/heating pad on them and take some Ibuprofen (400 mg. with food every 4-6 hours) to get through the acute phase. 

You may need to back off your workouts too.  I hope it's not from your new shoes. 

You guys like my Neanderthal joke?  Where else on the net do you get Neanderthal booger jokes?

Yeah, Yeah. I was gonna tell you it was decent and then thought your doorways were probably no wider than 3 feet.

 You need a cucumber, but she's hot...so, you skip ahead on the list - onions, carrots, garlic...she's giving those things a physical....tomato, mushrooms, Basil and Thyme...what is she looking for?

lettucce, apples, strawberries...if she buys that one I have no chance.

I hear Ace doesn't fart.

Can't.  Hobos will scent you.

Drats, stinky sock!

Chemmy, you'll want to be sure to warm up properly.  You might also find ace wrap compression around your ankles to be helpful if your achilles are swollen at all.  Alternate ice with heat, using heat before you go and do a workout.

If you are doing more hills, sudden increase in mileage or speed, that could be aggravating them too.

I guess that means Osama Bin Ladin is trolling in one of the more obscure threads then.

#73  I'm sure we'll hear soon from Alec Baldwin about how the right wingers are like mobs who throw rocks

Remember how tolerant and peaceful Alec Baldwin sounded on Larry King (?) when he spoke of the desire to stone Henry Hyde and his family to death?

How about how tolerant and peaceful he sounded when he left a message for his own daughter on the phone?  How about that?  Lefties should really be careful about throwing stones when they themselves live in glass houses.

From your link:

Officers found Williams lying in the front yard, smelling of gasoline and not able to speak. Bynes was charged with aggravated assault, but after she got out of jail and Williams was released from the hospital, the couple seems to have reconciled.

Williams told reporters that the whole incident was a big misunderstanding. Bynes told detectives that she saw her boyfriend drop to the ground and roll to put out the flames. She says she left the scene because she thought he wasn't injured.

Theirs was a burning, unquenchable love...

If that's his idea of humor the audience should have stoned him to death.

I have one too.  Microplane makes a wicked one for the hoofies now.  If you have one of those foot baths fill with warm to hot water, Epsom salts, some slice of oranges or lemons and soak you feet.  Slather on lots of lotion...absolute heaven runningrn.

Ooh, that does sound nice!  I love getting my feet rubbed--sometimes I go to those Chinese foot massage places because it feels that good, plus it's only 20 bucks.

OMG.  Only in my family.  We got a call a few hours ago, my BIL was taken to the hospital.  Bleeding from the rectum and BP very high.  We have the family keeping us posted.  In the meantime, my husband knows his brother VERY well.  He knows he suffers from hemmorhoids.  So hubby goes online to see if this could be the cause of his brothers rectal bleeding.  I am sitting in the kitchen and all of a sudden I hear my husband laughing, calling me to "come back and see this!".  I go back and he is on a hemmorhoid forum.  I just stand there and look and it him.  Really dear?  A hemmorhoid forum? 

BTW- we're pretty sure thats the problem although the high BP is a concern.  Would appreciate any prayers you guys can muster up.  He's been having some other problems and I love this guy like he was my own brother.  Just heard from SIL and they are still waiting for a doctor to see him.  They have been there for over 3 hours now.

You bet.  I feel your pain (only it's probably not as deep since the Seahawks are so awful in every way, still, it was a very frustrating game!)

Please, someone . . . do we have Spawn of Editor yet?  They were timing contractions when I left last night.

I got an email from him a little while ago.  The contractions didn't last and they are still without baby.  Mrs. Editor emailed me this a.m., and she said she was feeling fine.  So that's kind of a bummer.  It sounded like she had as many as 7 in one hour and that the longest ones were lasting 1 min. 40+ seconds.

That was funny, and it gets at a big gripe I have.  Pitch Black was excellent, plausible/believeable, low-budget scifi.  When I saw this thing, I couldn't believe it.  Why re-think everything like that?  And if you want to do that, get another actor and give the movie another name.  And then you can do two movies.  The re-thought one and something based on the original.

Hey CDR M, I'm fine, how are you?

Damn.  I don't know.  We wanted to go down to the hospital but hubby is still getting over pneumonia and I already had 2 glasses of wine when we got the call, so I didn't want to drive.  We'll know more tomorrow.  I guess it was enough to scare him.  My SIL said he has spotted a little in the past few months.  He said he felt a "lump" in his rectal area.  Thats all I know.  He's been very depressed the past several months.  Since my MIL passed away I'm afraid we haven't been in touch as much as we were.

The contractions didn't last and they are still without baby.

Dammit!  Thanks, running.  I was hoping it would go fast.  Are they talking about inducing or are they gonna give her a few more days? 

And, srsly, if you don't use Kerasal, give it a try.  Amazing stuff.  I would have rhinoceros hooves without it.

He didn't say anything about getting induced. 

Do they sell Kerasal at the drugstore?

(Reuters) - A mysterious syndrome in which men come down with a flu-like illness after an orgasm may be caused by an allergy to semen, Dutch scientists said on Monday. 

Men with the condition, known as post orgasmic illness syndrome or POIS and documented in medical journals since 2002, get flu-like symptoms such as feverishness, runny nose, extreme fatigue and burning eyes immediately after they ejaculate. Symptoms can last for up to week.

They diagnose it with a standard skin prick allergy test (injecting the guy's own semen diluted down).

I doubt it. The right knows the fix is in and the left is doing the fixing. And the media will find it all unnewsworthy.

Made the mistake of watching CSPAN 2. Term-limited Gov Ed Rendell was on a panel on state budget and Congressional politics. He said he almost hired David Boies to raise a constitutional challenge to Senate rules based on the fact that 41 Republican senators "only represented 18% of the population." In short, he thought he might try to have the Constitution declared unconstitutional. Apparently he's never heard of the House of Representatives and the Census or the definition of bicameral. None of the esteemed panel blinked. Uncle Joe on Petticoat Junction was way swifter than this.

If I was employed by CNN I might say "there appears to be no direct evidence that Ed Rendell is a god damned fucking imbecile."

Where's the Tylenol.

I know

Chronicles of Riddick seems like two different movies happening at once. You've got an epic-scale, self-serious, sci-fantasy movie mated to a small-scale Riddick-vs-merc, irreverent,  industrial sci-fi adventure yarn. And at several points they awkwardly intersect. 

I would bet money that the screenplay for a Necromonger movie was hanging around in the slushpile when someone said, "Hey, people really liked that Riddick character in Pitch Black. Do we have something we can port him in?"

Does anyone on here watch the new Hawaii 5-0? I have a question about the characters.

I do, it's some fun cheese

OK, The Dude, is McGarrett supposed to be the son of the original and is Dan-o too? Also, is Kono really the sexy Asian dude’s cousin or does he call her “cuz” as some sort of island thing?

I've watched it.  Was just about to log off but will stick around if I can help.  At first I thought it pathetic that I might be able to answer a TV question, but it's better than being able to chime in about hemmorhoids.

OK, one of the headlines on MSN is currently “Edwards Probed” you know someone did that on purpose.

OK, The Dude, is McGarrett supposed to be the son of the original and is Dan-o too? Also, is Kono really the sexy Asian dude’s cousin or does he call her “cuz” as some sort of island thing?

The way I understand it, McGarrett is the same McGarrett as the original H-50, although in the new series his father was killed in an early episode.  Dano is the same Dano as the old series too.  Kono and the Asian guy from Lost are cousins on the show.

The only way to get Green in SoCal is to import a million gallons of water from the other western states.

McGarrett is supposed to be the son of the OG McGarrett with a little tinkering in the backstory. No Cann is not an offspring of the OG Dan-O (just another dude named Dan-O). And yes, Kono and Daniel Dae Kim share blood (sister or cousin, I do not know) though cuz is slang pretty much anywhere (usually between blood relitives)

impressed with his studliness.

McGarrett? Yeah, and what the heck is he supposed to be anyway that he can call up the USS Enterprise in the Persian Gulf (which was stupid in itself) and ask for a satellite image? Some sort of hybrid super military cop guy?

So you're still willing to hang out, Mayday, on the hemorrhoids thread?

Yes, I actually lurk around sometimes but don't post too often.  You really do learn a wide variety of useful, useless and downright wierd stuff around here.

They didn't cut off the Central Valley for a city. They cut it off for no reason at all.

Is there anyone else a little cheesed off about the Mexican family who is suing the US because the Border Patrol capped their kid when he was throwing rocks at them across the Rio Grande?  Or is it just me?

It is not just you. So far we have 2 that agree. Hopefully more.

They should shoot the parents in the courtroom

OK, you guys just confused me more. I only watched a couple episodes, one mainly because I saw Kevin Sorbo was a guest star and the minute I saw that I said to myself “he’s the bad guy” and then I had to watch it to the end to prove myself right.

Why does Kevin Sorbo get cast as the bad guy so much now?

Isn't the character is supposed to be a former Navy SEAL

Who said he was calling that Enterprise?

Is your Enterprise in the Persian Gulf too? Or are you just searching for nuclear wessels again so you can save the whales?

McGarrett? Yeah, and what the heck is he supposed to be anyway that he can call up the USS Enterprise in the Persian Gulf (which was stupid in itself) and ask for a satellite image? Some sort of hybrid super military cop guy?

I believe the current McGarett is ex-Special Forces.  Also, he's got a deal with the governor (?) of Hawaii so he gets access to all kinds of stuff (convenient plot device).  The governor is played by the woman who was on both Designing Women and the alcoholic (iirc) first lady on 24.

God, I really do watch too much TV.  But in fairness, the main reason I watch Hawaii 5-0 is because I love the theme song.  Reminds me of my dear departed father who watched the original show way back when.

Posted by: Holger at January 18, 2011 12:14 AM (YxGud)

wouldn't really call him a inactive SEAL, more of a SEAL doing a civvy taskforce job

The Enterprise from the evil universe where Spock has a beard is stealing our oil to use in the future.

That's in our mission statement.

Mission accomplished!

Also PGiS, I think Holger is right, McGarett is a former SEAL.

Posted by: kbdabear at January 18, 2011 12:16 AM (vdfwz)

I stand corrected <sarc>

That's why Obama talks about locally grown produce. Not stuff grown in CA and shipped all over. So the easterners can have the fun of no fruit after October until May, just like in Colonial times.

Like that's healty with those dressings with 45000 grams of fat soaking them.

Pair that with a 'coffee' that has 3500 calories and you have your weeks food in one meal.

OK, thanks for your help. I checked Wikipedia and yes, McGarrett is Navy SEAL. And the son of the original. Also, the governor is played by Jean Smart. And, they started out updating the theme song but got a negative reaction so went back to the original.

I shouldÂ’ve known he was supposed to be a Navy SEAL, he is awfully dreamyÂ…

Given everything else he seemingly has the ability to do on the show (at least in the two episodes I watched) then I imagine he probably can.

Yes it is. Probably worth it for that alone.

The Dude, itÂ’s pretty much a standard in any film class (or used to be who knows what they teach now), so if you are into owning movies like that, then yes, it is worth buying.

I keep looking at Kino's blu-ray release but just haven't bought it.

the most dangerous time is the few minutes just after the breakage when the mercury vapor is released into the air while you are reading the cleanup procedure.

That is both funny and true. A  lot of people I know—really smart people—didnÂ’t know that those bulbs require special clean-up if you break them. They also didnÂ’t know it requires special disposal.  We just got a postcard in the mail listing all the places to take the bulbs to recycle them.

Love how much these bulbs are costing us—how much did that mailing cost? And how much is the disposal of the bulbs costing? And at some point won’t companies get tired of doing it for free and start charging?

Seven million dollars.

Posted by: Oldcat at January 17, 2011 11:28 PM (CN+Qv)

Really?

Wow!

I would do almost anything to get paid Seven Million Dollars for my pert summarizing skills!  This is at least a 3 year contract, right?

I've been entertaining some offers from the former Czech Republic that offer free trips to Amsterdam but you take the cake!

Not to mention that mercury exposure causes insanity.

I like the Untouchables version of the baby carriage scene.

OK, now I think I may be insane, it was the Untouchables that had it, right?

If they do that, people will just throw them in the regular trash.

The entire curly bulb being forced on us is nothing but a bad joke. There was not a damn thing wrong with the old incandescent bulb. I have been stockpiling them for the future. I wonder how many lawyers are going to get rich with the class actions suits  filed for poor unexpecting curly bulb users getting sick while cleaning up broken curly bulbs.

Among other things.

Sounds like the perfect set up for a future class-action lawsuit.  Which makes sense, environuts and trial lawyers play for the same team.  I think this is what's called "vertical integration."

What is it with liberals and their veneration of totalitarian regimes? 

Posted by: Kratos (Ghost of Sparta) at January 18, 2011 01:03 AM (c0A3e)

Its because those regimes do what they would like to do if they had the power and the courage and the ability to do. I used to say that you can't talk to a liberal for ten minutes before the guns come out. All their dreams have coercion at the base, for other people at least.

There's nothing tidy about liberal policies or minds. Have to disagree there.

 think it's because the liberal mind likes things tidy, and democracy can be so messy. Recall the old saying about Mussolini making the trains run on time.

It's conceit.  It runs deep in the liberal psyche.  To a man, none of them believe that they will be anything other than policy-makers and ruling/political class, themselves.

Hubris and Conceit.  The Liberals have both in spades.

Posted by: Otis Criblecoblis at January 18, 2011 01:19 AM (fjoLg)

The messy part is that they don't get their way that way. Its not the mess, its the opposition they don't like. Messy things like graft in stimulus expenditures never seem to raise their ire. Its a feature, not a bug.

If Liberals liked tidiness, in any way, they would have to reverse themselves when their policies blow up in their face sometime. Instead, they always want more ot the same, as long as the same means more power for them

Its no reflection on anyone but himself. What's even more amusing is that its also totally fake, because of all our presidents he's the one with the most bloated self image.

He does it intentionally, to harm the US.  He's shitting all over the Presidency in order to kill it.

Have you ever read Alfred Bester's short story "The Men Who Murdered Mohammed?"  The principle in that story applies in this case.

The U.S. has not bought into his scam because of “Democracy” and now China has got to be the worldÂ’s savior.  What two large CO2 countries refused to apply CO2 limits? Let me see wasnÂ’t that China and India?  Hanson belongs in jail.
