Good news. Small price to pay to get this corrected. And I think your kids should be the ones washing by hand....

EDIT: My wife made a good point. Kids should know how to wash dishes by hand. First rental will not likely have a dishwasher.

heh. I'm not good at bowling and I never go, but I love it just the same.

See when I was a senior in HS I did a bridge program to the local community college and I had to take a "gym" class.

Yup I took Bowling. And I got an A. Best Gym EVAR.

I like "sports" that go well with beer. Bowling, ping pong, and recently i've taken up golfing. Although golfing is more of a vodka sport in my opinion.

Pool goes well with beer! Though lately it's gone well with car bombs. There's a lady on my team that's going through a divorce. I called her an alcoholic, she responded by buying me more drinks

decent basic article on being corked though some of the writer's other stuff seems to be less well-researched.

Word. I think I average more beers than pins. Bowling sucks

Don't forget to vote for Alyssa. Their website is back up and running. I just used the link in my sig. However, they did let me know that I could not use the same numeric code again. So, I went on to the next one. Now, back to finishing my grades. Actually, back to comments.

The answer is or at least the one I came up with is Afternoon Delight. At least some people haven't forgotten Starland Vocal Band.

Sky rockets in flight!

It's not often I go for a boring meaning when a perfectly dirty one will suffice!

And I'm pretty sure you're right and my thoughts of a Doctor of Letters were waaaaay off base.

Don't leave out darts.

polarbear22 wrote:Don't leave out darts.

Or any sport that can watched on tv.

I hate exams!

PemberDucky wrote:I greatly enjoyed this story.

Ditto that.

I don't play pool. Only because I suck at it. Although I do get my money's worth... I can make the game last for hours.

Darts I like. Something about flinging a dangerous object across the room while drinking that really appeals to me.

random note, but...
after a weekend visit from my folks and my best friend... i'm now out of brandini and them salted chocolate caramel pecans...

time to reload, woot!

How about syllabi? I'm finishing up one right now. And I rather enjoy writing them.

So, anyone else get the new shipping labels from Woot?

Got some non Wine.Woot shipments in today, and it was weird seeing the Woot! on the side of the box and not have the label indicate what was inside (SkittleBots in one, Geodesic BuckyBalls in another) them.

Nice part is they have shipping info on the inside now.


Edit: Those SkittleBots are fast!!!!

ok, so what kind of dishwasher do I want? let me just give you some background..... I can kill any appliance! I am on my 4th or 5th washer in 20 years, my 3rd dryer... you get the picture.... I will NEVER own another Maytag or Kitchenaid again.... My dishwasher now is a Kitchenaid.... I swore I would never buy, but got suckered into it by a great sale and the salesman said they had no problems.... ha ha ha Kenmores extended warranties have gotten ridiculously expensive... HAVE to get the extended warranty for obvious reasons... I just got an LG washer to replace the whirlpool cabrio that died.... so far... no problems,,,,, I will prob. look this week... so looking forward to any thoughts......

I tend to say go for the bottom of line for a good brand with the less electronics the better. Seems like the high end stuff is more prone to breaking.

My friend has sold appliances for 25 years and said the Samsung DMT800RHB is great. All samsung appliances are good she said. That one though its sweet. I'm buying it next year with the kitchen remodel. But in stainless

Naaaa, not so much. Why are you writing syllabi?

Went to a dinner tonight where one of our friends was being honored. It was also a benefit for the community association that was started by our former pastor. I won a liter bottle of Belvedere Vodka and two pretty blue martini glasses!

I'm so burning in hell for posting that image in the Clean Jokes thread ....

So that line way out there has become a circle - and it comes around and bites us in the ass. (;

I think you mean the line waayyyyyy back there. Behind us. Which explains why we keep crossing it over and over.

My landlord is coming over this morning to "inspect" the house. I'm not looking forward to it.
