my first carpentry truism I learned was when my dad and Mr Lons Bush were building our house. I was about 6.

Mr Bush told me "Once you cut a board too short, it doesn't matter how many more times you cut it - it will still be too short. Always be careful with the first cut."


I was about 12, went to the hardware store with Dad to get some material. Dad was in the screw aisle when someone walked up to help, "what are you looking for?" Dad, "I'm looking for wood screws". Guy, "how long you need 'em". Dad, "Pretty long time."
Clicked in here expecting a totally different contest. Am very disappoint.

Well, I believe in the soul... the cock...the pussy... the small of a woman's back... the hangin' curveball... high fiber... good scotch... that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent overrated crap... I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a Constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. Goodnight.

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius,
Commander of the Armies of the North,
General of the Felix Legions,
Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius,
Father to a murdered son,
Husband to a murdered wife,
And I will have my vengeance -- in this life or the next.


quote:

Fratres! [Brothers!] Three weeks from now I will be harvesting my crops. Imagine where you will be, and it will be so. Hold the line! Stay with me! If you find yourself alone, riding in green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled, for you are in Elysium, and you're already dead! Brothers, what we do in life... echoes in eternity.


quote:

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and good will shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Just off the top of my head.
When I got my drivers license at age 15 I was 5-3. I got made fun of because I was 5-3 and wore a size 10 shoe. Looked like I was on skis. When I graduated high school I was 5-9. Sophomore year of college I peaked out at 6-3.

Agreed. I can't think of a more worthless baseball stat than LOB.

UCLA will have that #1 ranking tested this weekend. They play Tennessee, A&M, and Mississippi State.

agree they're both garbage but I just never saw Joe partying with Epstein.


Did you see Joe sniffing a little girl's hair? Or grabbing a little girl's nipple? Or the creepy picture of him with the babysitter? Or read any of his daughter's journal entries? But at least he wasn't seen in pictures partying with Epstein, right? :cool:
quote:

I do think AI should replace officiating for sports, especially football referees and baseball umpires.


The fact that baseball (college and major league) has the technology to never miss a ball or a strike, without slowing the game down at all, and refuses to use it, makes me irrationally angry. :confused:

I'm not a fan of his music, or that genre in general, but this is simply not true.

Turner likes to whine to its employees about their super tight margins every year while fricking them on raises and bonuses. Only to turn around and announce record revenues


99.9% of Turner's employees are billed through a client. Although they are paid by Turner, it is through the client. Although it is possible for Turner to give one of those employees a raise without the client increasing that person's rate, it is extremely rare. So to say that Turner is fricking them on raises and bonuses is not accurate. The client must agree to the increase and approve it.

They most definitely got a new fryer, because this one is dead.
