Out of control !!! That's exactly what's happened - List the places: Long Island (3), Boston (2), Iowa (1), So Cal (handful), Central PA (1), SD (1), FL (3), NC flats (1), NC hilly (1 - and no pun intended by hilly, that JUST occurred to me) and on and on...apologize for any omissions

I've heard the high school (locker room type) jokes about getting the ruler out. Do high school age/college age types also have references to distance ... if you know what I mean? You know, like "contest style?" I can almost imagine someone came up with that one too. People's imaginations run amok when it comes to anything sexual.

RUDE!

" WALK ON, CHILD "

When you know people's personal foibles, in great detail, better than you do those of your close friends.

Did you notice his name? Philip Winikoff - sounds like Philip Wackinoff Also, does he come on with the tag line: "For you and only for you...." (some of the NY/Northeasterners will get it).

I was thinking about this ALL ALONG! Well, blame it on the 18 or 19 year old that started it, not me!

Yeah, Ceiling Cat looks pretty startled ... or turned on!

Glass block

Redneck Law

Doesn't Ocn live near there? Back to the thread!

Brad Pitt is on the list? Good. I can't stand him. The media packages and force feeds us so many celebrities. Brad Pitt is one of them. The litmus test: would anybody pay any attention to him if he were walking through a shopping mall? Probably not. I told my cousins in Italy he looks more like a gas station jockey than a serious actor. Equal time for the women we are force fed -- Julia Roberts? Paid enough to fund the operations of all the public housing in Atlanta on an annual basis (she comes from one of its suburbs)...that's what we should make her do with all the money she earns. She reminds me of a chick who would have gone to a public high school on the West Side of L.A., smoking cigarettes with her other vapid friends outside of an ice skating rink, waiting outside to go to Bob's Big Boy and smoke some more (that's like a Denny's). Another one is Tom Cruise. He looks like he's frozen in immediate post-pubescence. How am I to take him seriously as a slick law grad in "The Firm" or as a doctor in "Eyes Wide Shut?" He's a joke as well. Is he on the list?

Chargerino, Why aren't you EVER dressed correctly for bad weather? I want to know where your parents are? LOL. Unbelievable. You're making up for all the snow you DIDN'T see in Las Vegas.

Rap is XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX worse. Agreed.

Chill. Chill. Chill.Every once in a while, a "whack(y)" (no pun intended) topic gets on here and we have some fun with it. Remember, you've joined a forum that is about 98 % male (correction: about 80 % male - couldn't resist - I know, I'm an ass). Is it any different from the immaturities and stupid comments that would be carried out by women (and this would be grown women) if they went to see Chippendale dancers? Probably not. Now, if one of us put a crotch shot behind tight underwear as our Avatar, would that be vulgar? Probably so. I guess I don't like the double standard. We're just having fun. Let it go. No need to analyze it.

Copenhagen

There's white trash in Bellevue? Really?

Do most use gel or warming liquid? Scented or unscented? Do people keep a towel nearby or run up and get tissue paper from the bathroom? Do you let "the stuff" land on you or elsewhere? Have you ever shared a hotel room (or dorm room) with somebody for a professional event (just going to college) to have them whack in the middle of the night, they essentially wake you up and then you just stay there FROZEN so that you don't have to acknowledge the issue? I had that happen about 3 years out of college at a hotel in San Diego where I had to share a room with a co-worker. It was awful. I was woken up by it and DID NOT MOVE / OPEN MY EYES / BREATHE. I never said a word nor did I want to interact with this person thereafter.

I would pay a lot more attention to this if I have kids. A friend of mine just had her second kid ... she's an accountant who is on leave from the State of California ... and she went on line and found some in her neighborhood. Since I only have to worry about me, I don't pay much attention to it. If I was a parent, I would be on the lookout.

GO TO BED, DAMMIT !!!

I disagree to the max raised exponentially. Jazz, smooth or otherwise, is mostly what I listen to. It relaxes me. It is also known that the demographics of jazz listeners point to intelligence and accomplishment. But that's not why I listen to it. I think jazz is very slinky and sultry. When I was a little kid, I would see a movie and hear a great soundtrack within. I thought "that stuff sounds good, whatever it is." It might have been someone like Quincy Jones. Then, when I grew up, I would see Quincy Jones in the jazz section. One of my uncles on my Dad's side was in a philarmonic or symphony on the East Coast playing a wind instrument. My nephew (brother's kid) is accomplished at the saxophone. My family seems to like wind instruments. I love jazz. Ease off, Reg. Chill pill coming your way. Too much stress at work?

Sattmeister, you must be joking. Can I entice Imelda Marcos to become a member and post her response to this thread? It might take the site down.
