  1. Ex, do you mean the circumsized life? After I copped out from the nineth corpse, I returned to the work I had done immediately prior to going in residence, which was telecomm company central office tech, for Western Union Telegraph Company. Based in Phoenix, I was hired mainly to do temporary fill in work in California and Las Vegas. I spent several months in San Diego, and in my youthful naivete, fell in with some fools (other fools, and they happened to work for the same company) who were pushing a pyramid scheme. One of the guys used to like to say, when agreeing with someone to meet later in the day, "ok, let's circumsize our watches." I thought that malaprop was so funny, I have never forgotten it. And anytime anyone invokes the word "synchronize" or its variations, I always think of that time in San Diego.
  2. I think the Bridge Over Troubled Water album was the first one I ever bought (by anybody)... or at least it's the one I liked the most. http://www.artgarfunkel.com Oct 18, 2003 Auburn Hills, Michigan THE PALACE OF AUBURN HILLS On Sale Sept 15 Oct 20, 2003 Cleveland, Ohio GUND ARENA On Sale Sept 15 Oct 22, 2003 Columbus, Ohio SCHOTTENSTEIN CENTER On Sale Sept 15 Oct 24, 2003 Chicago, Illinois UNITED CENTER On Sale Sept 15 Oct 26, 2003 St. Paul, Minnesota: XCEL ENERGY CENTER On Sale Sept 15 Oct 30, 2003 Denver, Colorado PEPSI CENTER On Sale Sept 22 Nov 1, 2003 Seattle, Washington KEY ARENA On Sale Sept 22 Nov 2, 2003 Portland, Oregon ROSE GARDEN ARENA On Sale Sept 22 Nov 5, 2003 San Jose, California HP PAVILLION On Sale Sept 15 Nov 6, 2003 Oakland, California OAKLAND ARENA On Sale Sept 15 Nov 8, 2003 Las Vegas, Nevada MGM GRAND ARENA On Sale Sept 22 Nov 9, 2003 Phoenix, Arizona AMERICA WEST ARENA On Sale Sept 20 Nov 12, 2003 Sacramento, California ARCO ARENA On Sale Sept 15 Nov 14, 2003 Anaheim, California ARROWHEAD POND On Sale Sept 22 Nov 17, 2003 Los Angeles, California STAPLES CENTER On Sale Sept 22 [This message was edited by Rocky on September 10, 2003 at 23:02.]
  3. So, Tommy S, you mean Paula's your real seeester? an what mean ye that it's so much work over in the political forum? why I'VE forgotten more about politics than some of those buzzards will evah know! (not that it would ever do me any good). And wasn't it softball?
  4. Ya know, niKa, my sweet little ol cat, he weighs less than 10 pounds, is as sweet as can be...most of the time. he occasionally gets roudy with us, BUT... when he sees another cat! Look out! He goes ballistic. Out of the blue, the hair stands up and he goes to screetchin like he's a black cat on halloween. So, he stays indoors and other cats stay away. Took him to the vet one time (got him from the county pound) when we were going on vacation. He wasn't as loud as he can get at home, but he was definitely ....ed to have been taken there. He was ....ed when we went to get him, and took a few days to mellow out completely. I hope it helps for you to go sit with yours for transition.
  5. Now, how in the world could Ginger Tea make John Kerry cry? I have no idea, but I do know that someone, probably the aforementioned GT has shown (by the post, above) and incredibly insightful capacity for reflection. What a blessing. Others comments hit the mark too... I like the Cheers analogy. (I'll be Norm).
  6. Honestly Tom, do you really think anyone would get away with "we all played hims on our..." -->
  7. Hey Hey, I'm up late because I'm writing endless pages for my incessant custody litigation. Or that's what it feels like. Simon is up this late, as is SirGuess, and KarmicDebt... alll three are fellow Arizonianites! I wonder if it's something in the air? I took an online college class on newswriting two years ago. it was fun.
  8. Pawtucket decides about the signatures under our names. For moster posters, it's a function of the number of posts. For some, it may be a matter of other aspects of their identity having been observed or ascertained here at the ol' GSC. Remember when you congratulated me on my 200th post? Not that long ago. I guess I 've been hangin out here so frequently I now know the chef. I have no idea about Madison.
  9. Hey niKa, If you get a good deal on a maid, let me know, I need one too. The kids grow pretty fast, eh?
  10. niKa, read something at google news last night that a guy got arrested in Norman for being caught delivering newspapers naked. and if you are interested in further development of the comment you made about some fargin so and so, there is a corner of the cafe here where the discussion is in full bloom. And-go Sun Debbils (local news claims the QB is a bona fide heisman candidate, but they have been known to exaggerate to generate ticket sales).
  11. Yeah, Excie, but since he is a woofer, the real question is DID HE GET NAILED? On the questions posed by our sweet brudder Rev TT, the most vivid recollection I have of that momentus time in our lives is of waiting at the KC airport for a ride... meeting some of you there, and meeting someone who said he was some sort of minister who knew all about how bad Vic and his teachings and operation were. How prophetic. Sigh.
  12. Hey niKa, Do you have the newspaper delivered to your home? I hope not.
  13. Hey karmic, Ya know who has a Vespa? One a yer own Tucsonans... The senator from state legislative district 28. She also has a harley, I think. Oh my oh my oh my, what mouth on that hegotsoap! He should youse it on his mouth.
  14. We missed you too Professor niKa! But we've been having fun too. Mebbe we should have a poll to see how many believe the Caged Bird did it and how many think he got railroaded... I read some a dat stuff. I can just imagine how the media attention was at least a factor in some way.
  15. Geeze Simon, you're pretty good at that feminine side thing. But do you dress the part?
  16. Here I am! ;)--> ;)--> You send me.
  17. Probably the same place they found the fab 5 for Bravo's new show.
  18. Dear Walkaboutfellow: http://www.google.com is a search engine through which you can find the answer to any question you can think of, pert near. A google search based on what the zealous one described, using simply the two words Emporia and murder brings a list of web sites related to those two words. A quick read of that list shows the one Excie pointed out for us.
  19. In the spirit of getoutthevote, symbolic cousin to hegotoats, I vote for larry, curly and moe.
  20. You want pathetic? [This message was edited by Rocky on August 30, 2003 at 12:36.]
  21. Ok, you want pathetic? See next msg. [This message was edited by Rocky on August 30, 2003 at 12:38.]
  22. Hmmm... mistressEx, you ain't the only one reachin! Strangerinthenight, i dunno, Slopping for Jesus is kinda catchy... and I would be most honored to capture the images for the documentary.
  23. Does it count if I used to have a winchester 20-20? (got rid of it before I even met youse guys for the first time)
  24. :D--> Thank you Excie... I'm not worthy... I'm not worthy!
