Working as a barista, I had one customer who would regularly order his lattes at 180 degrees. I always gave the look of "Ok, man, but you're fuckin' crazy." Milk does not like being steamed to that point. It starts rumbling like it's somehow going to explode. I felt nervous just making the damn things, but every time he'd take a big swig of it right as I gave it to him.
I think he just had something to prove.
New York alone, even to someone used to big cities like London, is an extraordinary place to visit, and the West Coast has some absolutely spectacular scenery and great cities.
Seconded. I'm from California, which is (mostly) awesome. Oregon and Washington State are mighty nice as well. I'll forgo my usual vitriol and simply say that I cannot recommend Los Angeles at all. Recently visited New York City for Pete Seeger's 90th birthday concert, expecting to hate the place. My wife and I were astounded at how much we liked it. We weren't there for very long, but we both left thinking, "this is how cities should be run."
Pull over? I know a guy who would just hit the brake and swing his arm wildly behind him. His three kids would come tumbling into his wrath. Ah... for the days when you could drive a van with your kids just running loose in the back.
actually the mexican goverment doesn't have that kind of firepower
That's a crock of shit. I haven't seen that much of Mexico, but I did see cops -not military, POLICE OFFICERS- making their rounds carrying assault rifles. I'm not that much of a gun guy, so I can't say they were M16s for sure, but they were military-grade weapons. That made me nervous.
Of course, I went to Jamaica shortly afterwards, and the police there carried submachine guns. That made me much more nervous. The Mexican cops were prepared to blow the shit out of the thing they were aiming at. The Jamaican cops were ready to fire wildly into a panicked mob.
Huh. I just reread the first book of Sandman yesterday, and it referenced that, and I didn't get the reference. I just assumed it was like the Page 5 Girl from The Weekly World News.
Which was probably inspired by Page 3 from The Sun.
Also, Clear Lake is pretty shitty. They would be hard pressed to fuck it up any worse than it is. Seriously, the only time that lake is ok to swim in is in the middle of the night (so you can't see the water) when you're drunk off your ass (to make your body a hostile environment to all the things that are going to try to grow inside you). And the locals, man, don't get me started.
I have a friend who has been working on "The Bear and the Bow," Pixar's next film, for a couple years now. She couldn't tell me what she was doing until about the time Up was trailered. So yeah, it's a long production cycle. She does concept art and such, so it maybe pushes through the CGI phase pretty quick, but they develop these things over several years.
Feel free to vote for the non-Black candidates and against the Black candidates if you are not African-American. You need not defend your actions in any way. Voting on the basis of skin is quite acceptable by the standards of today's moral values.
Guess I'll vote for the nigger next time, too. I dunno, man. I haven't known many black people in my life, nor wetbacks, camel-jockeys or whatever. Some folks in my situation distrust such people. Fear of the unkown, I guess. Me, I think I understand my fellow white man pretty well, and I know what kind of treacherous assholery we can get up to. Maybe those weird darkies are different by nature. I'll take the unknown evil over the known.
Fuck Gandhi. Duder killed his wife. Penicillin would have likely saved her but he pulled the ol' "she's in God's hands" bitch maneuver. Then when illness came for him, he was on the meds like a dope fiend.
Folks with wee ones, take note. Print up a tshirt that says "world's greatest uncle." Then when you need a little break, have a male buddy take the tyke for a trip to the park or store. You both win!
He's not actually interested in catching them. As long as the Duke boys are a threat, he can use it as political leverage for votes and funding for more law enforcement. If the Duke boys were brought to justice, all that money would have to go to things like education, or fixing the county's numerous washed-out bridges.

Ya know, when I first saw that one, I laughed, but I knew it was a parody because (dun dun dunn...) I had never seen it before.
You are my hero for today. Of course, we're only 14 minutes into today, but it ain't nothin'.

Man... to hell with the meteors, I wanna watch the wet Swedes.
I hope that sign is in Braille !
No, it's in English, the language of Her Majesty's United Kingdom! And if you don't like it, you can go back to where you came from!
offtopic: your wife is a fox who writes nerd books. you are a fortunate man.

Man, have you heard "Zombie Zoo?" Maybe it was on a bet or something, but the dude can write a crappy song.
Hitler was never elected. He was appointed Chancellor by President Hindenburg.
Page 3 of the paper daily has a topless model.

Y'ever beat the shit out of your mom with that cane? 'Cause you probably should.

That depends if it's an African Canadian goose, or a European Canadian goose.
But African Canadian Geese are non-migratory...
Who is that, a French porn star?.
Dibs!

"Saddam, you shifty nigga! They said you was hung!" "And they was right!" I don't think he rode no Blazing Saddle, though.
