Re: Congratulations Slave and Catrin!!!

Heh. (video behind cut)

Quote:
There isn’t anything particularly entertaining about this clip, but it’s what passes for drama in the NBA. In last night’s Suns-Rockets game (Houston won 94-82), the Suns’ Matt Barnes took a cheap shot at Rafer Alston when his screen became more of a shove. Alston charged Barnes, Steve Nash came into the fray, Nash was pushed to the floor by Tracy McGrady, then McGrady was pushed to the floor by Shaq. No one is big enough to push Shaq to the floor, so that was pretty much that. Barnes and Alston were ejected, seven techs were handed out, and the game continued.

A lot of people are crediting the coaches and refs for keeping this under control, but I’d like to think that the soothing influence of Ron Artest had something to do with it as well.

Edited to thank Chevy for being funny where I failed to be.
Thanks, GWNC! You're too kind.

Given the context, perhaps "abject anus" would be more accurate. Alliteration and all.

Hello, darlings. I've miss you all (well, almost all).

What's new?

Babycakes!! It's good to see you back.

I'm back to being a wage slave. Food and shelter are fun. What's new with you.

Even if you don't think you're the jealous type, you might have your moments. Or the person you're dating might have moments like those. Especially while dating, you want him/her to only hear what YOU want him/her to hear from you directly because there could be other misunderstandings as well. I see no benefit. Same goes for having work colleagues on there. Just say no. I do love the Book, though and have friends from all walks of life there.
Hmmph.

Also, I may know a good source for previously used SSNs, if you are ever in the market.
Prison and credit records guaranteed good?

You're standing right now with 57 Senators from our 50 states. And there are over 255 more Congressmen from the House. That's 312 hardcore members. 2,534.5, counting democratic delegates. And 66,361,433 more, not organized, but ready to fight. 66,363,967.5 soldiers.

Now there ain't but 214 Republican Senators and Reps in the whole town, can you dig it? Can you dig it? CAAAAAN YOOOOOU DIG IIIIIIIIT?

Thuurrgreeeeed!!! Come out and plaaa----ayyy

p.s. Yeah, I know, I'm wonking. Suck it, Bitch. That's why they call it wonking.

Carry on.

That's why for my entire life, I have dressed like it was 1961.

No. She was the "recovered" coke addict who swore she wasn't sneaking off to score.
