Kissing Cousins (errr, mothers) and Interracial Dating
I dunno. I'm just telling you how I felt, as a boy spending the night at this kids house. Maybe the time for snuggling, is when you don't have another guest sitting there. When you have a guest, there should be some interraction with that person. Yet, this father was just smothering this boy wtih kisses, holding him in his arms, etc. It was just odd to me.— August 31, 2009 3:54 p.m.
Dangerous Bird
The way I am...I was just salivating and not taking my eyes off the boob cake!— August 31, 2009 9:11 a.m.
Critical Crash
Isaac...it's great that you seem to have half a brain. But let me ask you this? Why in the world, are you not telling the other riders: "Hey...we hurt our cause when we don't obey traffic laws?" Instead, you probably do what everyone else does. Just not say anything. I was at a movie today, and this guy was sucking his drink, even after it was empty. This went on for 15 minutes straight, with him occasionally messing with his straw. I had to be the one to tell him to knock it off, because idiots in the world are always afraid to tell someone that they're doing something wrong.— August 31, 2009 2:23 a.m.
The Busby Affair
And monaghan....how can cops "defuse a situation" when people at the party aren't showing ID or answering officers questions? The only thing baffling me in this case, is that the 911 call isn't going to be released, or that the person making it isn't slapped with some kind of fine for making a 911 call for something that is clearly not an emergency. I'm so tired, though, of hearing about the city or police, "settling" lawsuits with losers like these partygoers, who as was stated earlier...didn't realize when you throw a party, inevitably, SOMEONE calls the cops. It happens 90% of the time (I know, i witness this at all the parties I go to). On a side note: just read about that show "To Catch a Predator", and after they aired some adult male showing up at a teen girls house, he ended up killing himself. The family sued the show for $135 million and there was a settlement. I'm guessing the settlement was at least a million bucks. SO...money going to the family of a pedophile. Gotta love this idiotic country we live in!— August 31, 2009 2:16 a.m.
Prison Inmates (Dedicated to Dominick Dunne)
Is he talking about the wonderfully fun softball games they had going in the prison yard ; - )— August 31, 2009 2:05 a.m.
Anyone Going to Street Scene?
The second day of Street Scene was fun. I can't get over the singer of the Silversun Pickups. Dude sounds like a lady (no Aerosmith reference intended). Matt & Kim are simply a blast. The Dead Weather are great live. Still a horrible CD, though. M.I.A. just doesn't do much for me. I left during her set, to go see someone named Shanon ? and the Dap Kings. Amazing, soul singer with a wicked horn section.— August 31, 2009 2:04 a.m.
Kissing Cousins (errr, mothers) and Interracial Dating
Good point, rickey. Although, I think when setting people up on blind dates, there should be no surprises. What would happen if the guy was 7'4" tall? Or if he was 5'5" tall? Or had a really thick accent that was sometimes hard to understand? You just tell the person EVERYTHING. I do agree, storyteller, that the phrase "I hope that's okay" just sounds so awful. As they should have to "apologize" for looking a certain way or being a certain "skin color". Also, no offense about the red-head comment. Didn't know you were one. As I said...I've dated a few that were hot. And, it was always me people were looking at, wondering what in the world they were doing with my sorry a**!— August 31, 2009 2:02 a.m.
Bicyclists and Podiatrists
Anti...I thought about what type of person you are. You're the type that hates Harley's riding by your house because they're loud (as you mentioned once in a post), yet if you had a Harley, you wouldn't give a crap about what others felt about the sound. You're the type of person that has a cat (as you've mentioned many times), yet you probably don't see the problem with neighbors that might complain about cat poop or allergies, or their garden being torn up. You'd say "cats are supposed to be outdoor pets." You're the type of person that probably hates when someone takes their sweet time pulling out of a parking space you want, yet if it's you doing that, you tell the person with you "They can just wait their damn turn!" As you take your sweet time buckling up, pulling something out of the glove compartment, or whatever. People that aren't considerate of others, are the scum of the earth. Until you can explain WHY you would be on the side of bike riders that only wish to create problems for motorists, you're a loser. (and...didn't these riders do this to protest how bad motorists are in regards to the environment? Well...when we sit and idle at a light for 10 minutes as they take their sweet time riding thru intersections, that's a lot worse for the ozone layer than if we were able to drive thru the lights...the way they do!!!)— August 31, 2009 1:58 a.m.
Bicyclists and Podiatrists
Yeah, I thought about the tacks or nails, Ponzi. Hey Antigeek...why are you on THEIR side? For breaking the law, and TRYING to tick people off? Well, if that's their goal, they succeeded. They ticked me off. And I'll tack them off, and they'll get lots of flat tires. Viva La Revenge!— August 30, 2009 8:53 p.m.
Bicyclists and Podiatrists
Cake is great. Gotta love the trumpet, vibraslap, and talking vocal stylings of the band. Yeah, good point, refried. But when people are breaking the law, and for no good reason, well...I feel like breaking things. I might next time press the "walk" sign on the stoplight. And when it's my turn to "walk", I'm just going to go. And I might take a few cyclists down with me. Perhaps with a clothes line move we used to do in football.— August 29, 2009 3:22 p.m.
