Campbells's Soup is Good Food
Campbells' is donating up to 5 million cans of soup to the hungry. They're already well over a million. One can is donated for each participant in their NFL team popularity poll. All you need to do to increase their donation by a can is go to
this site and vote for your favorite team.
That's pretty cool.

It would be cool except that it wouldn't accept the 'code' I was required to type in. Wonder how many times a day THAT happens...

I had 11/16.
Then again many people go wrong...the other day at the club an old,wierd looking lady said to her friend (looking at me)"is that a man in womens clothing here in the ladies room?".Of course I had to ask my friend A right away if she would like to see my **** and do "it" with me in the stall.
Some people!So my hair has to grow back now and I hate it!!!

Severe Frost Warning
So, we're under a
Severe Frost Warning tonight.
Severe frost? Do they mean that it is an unusually serious and ill tempered frost? How does frost get bad enough to be called
Severe? Are we going to open the paper tomorrow and read reports of
8 Confirmed Dead as Atlanta Struggles Against Severe Frost? It's frost! Not snow, hail or even freezing rain. Frost! Get over it!
And what classification comes after Severe? You know there has to be one. I mean, given the vagaries of weather there is eventually going to be a frost that makes this Severe Frost look kind and playful by comparison. Would it then be a Catastrophically Rude Frost? Perhaps it will be an Unbearably Frosty Frost? God forbid they call it an X-treme Frost.
It boggles the mind.

The Short End of the Stick
What's up with that? I don't know what kind of sticks there are in other necks of the woods but around these parts our sticks are pretty much the same length on either end. I mean, no matter which end you're grabbing, isn't it the same distance to the middle?

You got it a little mixed up. The saying comes from an old Yiddish saying: "The short end of the schtick", which is the first and faster part of a 2 part comedy act, usually involving farce. So getting the short end of the schtick usually meant being not as funny or as interesting as the long end of the schtick.

What is with the Honda Element?
How in the world does a car
like this get built? Did the design team meet and decide that the criteria would be:
- Too small to use as an SUV. No, make that too small to use as a vehicle pretty much period.
- As absolutely dangerous as possible. (Yeah, we can combine a high center of gravity with plastic sidewalls! Yeah, yeah! We'll call them "dent resistant" or something. Sweet!)
- Uglier than an Aztec.
It's like the unholy offspring of a Mini Cooper and a Suzuki Samurai.

Let's piss off the womenfolk
Ladies, you know how when you're out at a popular club and you have to go to the bathroom and you've been waiting in line to get into the damned ladies' room for a half an hour and it hasn't really moved and you've seen about a hundred and fifty guys go in and out of the men's room?
Hahahaha.

Or, alternate B, which is a route I often use:
B) Use the men's room.
Smile, wash your hands as you exit.
Easy stuff. And, at least in Europe, nothing to be arrested over

Exactly my point. And being able to walk into the men's room and up to a urinal or trough is invaluable knowledge.

They were at Madfish Willie's and some of them went around back in the ally behind the dumpster to cop a squat. Sounds like they need to have potty parity enforced upon them by Big Brother asswipes!

Peeing in the sink
Women are better equipped for this than men because their butts stop the backsplash.

well you can always get back a ways and shoot the stream from a distance... but then you run the risk of splattering the mirror.. which if its not yours then it doesnt matter...

Sadly, however, many of us are too short to reach the sink with our tush unless we hop up and actually sit on the edge. At best, the chance of falling in makes you tense up and then... no pee. At worst, the sink is one of those cheapo attached-to-the-wall-with-old-chewing-gum types like they have at... oh, say the stadium, and it comes crashing off the wall in a flood of broken pipes and there you are with your thong around your ankles trying to run away and pull up your jeans at the same time and what the hell are you looking at, lady?
Or so I've been told.

Don't know about sinks, but here's a handy technique when the ladies' room line is around the corner and up the stairs:

I've found it best to just shoot straight down the drain hole. As long as you hit the sides of the pipe before the water level in the bend, it won't splash back. Plus, it is a great way to practice your control so that your snow-writing skills can improve even during the off-season.

Hanlon's Razor /prov./ A corollary of Finagle's Law,
similar to Occam's Razor, that reads "Never attribute to malice
that which can be adequately explained by stupidity." The
derivation of the Hanlon eponym is not definitely known, but a very
similar remark ("You have attributed conditions to villainy that
simply result from stupidity."
appears in "Logic of Empire",
a 1941 story by Robert A. Heinlein, who calls it the `devil theory'
of sociology. Heinlein's popularity in the hacker culture makes
plausible the supposition that `Hanlon' is derived from `Heinlein'
by phonetic corruption. A similar epigram has been attributed to
William James, but Heinlein more probably got the idea from Alfred
Korzybski and other practitioners of General Semantics. Quoted
here because it seems to be a particular favorite of hackers, often
showing up in sig blocks, fortune cookie files and the
login banners of BBS systems and commercial networks. This
probably reflects the hacker's daily experience of environments
created by well-intentioned but short-sighted people. Compare
Sturgeon's Law.
