Trickle down nuggies are a bitch you must conquer, that is if you want to move out of boyhood with a house full of brothers.
And then there are the Nachos and cabs, and the incessant demands to broadcast from any ol’ hellhole. F the per diem, I’d rather be teamed up with Deirdorf
@ Bob-Crotchit:
I am ignorant in the ways of brotherly love and nuggies.
I grew up with sisters stealing clothes out of my closet and mascara out of my purse.
I think I would have preferred brothers.
@ Suki Wong:
Nuggies? Just knocking on the head like there was a skull door. Now the really painful stuff was a Charley Horse or an Indian burn, when it meant nothing even close to a racial slur. Not even sure if it comes close to that, even in this day and age. anyway
I’m certain it beats stealing mascara.
Do you know what it is like living life without waterproof mascara?
It’s difficult, kinda like being a Raiders fan with regular mascara running down your face watching the 49′ers yesterday. And then snapping your sister’s bra for rooting for the wrong team.
I didn’t want sisters!

Gawd, not the tittie-twisters! That brings back so many unpleasant memories. Now I need another rum. Want me to pour you one? Coke or just on ice?
@ Suki Wong:
If I were Alice Cooper, well then, maybe yeah. I notice you’re fixated on other teams than your own. Pump up the volume.
@ Bob-Crotchit:
I know. A sad day here indeed.
We did the best we could with a 3rd string QB.
*sigh*
Give me back my waterproof mascara please.
@ Fritz Katz:
We, well at least I started it, used to administer a playful effect called the Laughing Charlie. Imagine getting a charlie horse and then being tickled.
And then there was the Elephant Drop. Arms coming across your body like an elephants trunk.
Finally, Romney does something conservatives actually like!
Romney gave a woman in need — $50 bucks out of his own pocket. (Unlike Obama who takes money out of your pocket to give to his supporters). It appears the woman was moved by the Holy Spirit of God to contact Romney.
Seems like the Lord put the poor woman through several days of work and time to just get $50 but we don’t know yet how it will all play out.
Wait for the hypocritical leftist media to now accuse Romney of trying to buy black votes with his own money. While they hide the fact that Obama actually has been buying black votes with taxpayer dollars.
I just got done watching “The Shoes of The Fisherman“, starring Anthony Quinn as Pope Kiril I. I had not seen this since I was a young lad.
Now, watching it as an adult, it’s a powerful film indeed. No wonder it was so controversial.
@ Suki Wong:
@ Bob-Crotchit:
Nachos? Somebody say “Nachos?” Brings back many disturbing memories, but I’m in anyway. Hey, Bob, Suki! Scoot over so this old tire butt can join the *pvvvt* (‘scuse me) fun!
@ Bob-Crotchit:
Um, Bob, you got, like, um, what’s that eyeshadow, or, ah. Nevermind.
Love the toga, Suki.
Oh, wait. Sorry. I thought you were Bob and Suki. I’ll leave you two lovebirds alone, sorry for busting in and … Hey Fritz! Macker!
What would have Panetta and Clinton said if the marines had decoreated the Taliban corpses with crosses and rosaries ?
One of these days we’ll all be in a booth together.
Think of the fun and furry fury that will persist. I look forward to it.
Maybe we should do a Superbowl Special. Get back together for some grits and shingles, guffatwas amd cursives.

Maybe Romney can get baptized for them? That’d piss the Liberals off…

@ Guggi:
Yes, the Mormons believe that you can get baptized for other people. There is some bitterness between the Jews and the Mormons because of the Mormon practice when it comes to Jews. I imagine the Mohammedans would be apoplectic, and, thus, so would the Leftists.
I was very surprised that the majority of the user-comments in the newspapers here read: so what ? Not nice but get over it. Usually they would see it as another evidence for the “criminal behavior” of the US-military.

I didn’t know this. I only knew that Mormons can band together other married couples for eternity without their knowledge. Happened to a co-worker of mine (not a Mormon) and she run crazy
when she figured out that her mother-in-law (who is a Mormon) had done this without asking her and her husband (not a Mormon).
@ Guggi:
The believe in retroactively baptising their ancestors into their faith. Which is why they have, hands down, no questions asked, the best genealogical database on the planet. The LDS database is the gold standard in such matters.
So from this video I learn I should be happy with 4 girls and 1 boy!!! May G-d preserve my sanity through the teenage years!
And for all the cruelty of the mother, the commentators don’t seem to have turned out too bad!

m and I asked you about this the other week.
Good Morning Blogmocracy! Today is another
gloriousinglorious day in the Reign of Emperor Barack Hussein I, Pasha of the United States and Defender of theFaithUmmah! There are 295 Days Until the 2012 Presidential Election! Huntsman has dropped out, and he is backing Romney. The Conservative majority is fractured, so Romney is likely to be our nominee. We’ve seen this before. It is what McCain (who beat Romney last time) did. What makes anyone think that Romney will be any more successful than McCain at beating Obama? Yes, Obaam has a record to run on now, and a substantial segment of the population is ready for a change, but Obama is still the FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT, and he is likely to have a war chestr of nearly (or exceeding) a billion dollars to run on. Romney will take all the same votes that McCain got in the last election, but that is a losing hand. I have no confidence that we will have joy in 296 days. Sorry to start the week off on such a downerr, but that is, as unindicted traitor Walter Cronkite used to say, the way it is…@ Guggi:
Must have missed it…

Back in the day, Amoco Oil Co. had a tendency to stock up on Mormans, for some reason. Seemed as good as anybody else to me…
@ Mike C.:
ADDENDUM – In the normal course of business, somebody has to tell me what their religion is, because I sure never ask. Now our fundamentalist jihadi IT guy I could easily spot, of course, especially when he went trotting off about 1 PM with the prayer rug tucked under his arm. Most of us hoped he would kill us last, because he was the best IT guy we had…
my wife works for The Sisters of Mercy[state side]
was reading the policy on over time pay. it states
over time is only payed for the hours worked on a holiday.
since she works third shift will she get payed time and a half
for the whole shift or only the hours actually worked on
the holiday?
@ mawskrat:
I would imagine her holidays are shifted, not split, probably based on the date her shift starts. That’s a normal business procedure.
