dissent. dtb is a lady.

what a lady may do has changed over the years, surely. a lady today may be quite drunk in public, she might even flash people and have sexual relations in public, and with virtual strangers. she can, without losing her ladylike bearing, curse loudly as she stumbles down the street.

but i am afraid, even today a lady still would not wedge a pole that far upwardly between her buttocks cheeks, at least on a crowded subway car. that is not dtb.

Thank you, kind sir. I will say, sometimes the thong isn't sitting just right, and it's really unladylike to stick one's fingers up one's butt in public. Better to just rub up, if you know what I mean.

this reminds me of the best bit from the gervais podcasts.

paraphrased and probably shortened:

Karl: I think it would be good to have me head transplanted onto some other bloke's body. That way if someone says I'm fat I can say it isn't me fault.

Steven: Hmmm, but then if you wank, that'd make you gay, no, because it'd be another man's cock and balls.

Karl: No, because it wouldn't be me hands either.

So it is hip to like Gervais (despite Hank), yet unhip to like Kevin Smith. Hm.

Some additional insights on birds, jet engines, and their dysfunctional relationships from journalist and flying enthusiast James Fallows:

Quote:
And birds? Birds are a much more serious worry for people flying airplanes than you would think, no matter the size of the plane. Obviously it's bad for the bird when it hits a hard metal or composite structure at hundreds of miles an hour. But it's surprisingly bad for the plane too. This detail in a recent NYT story rang true to me: "The impact of a 12 pound bird hitting a plane traveling at 150 miles per hour is equal to that of a 1,000 pound weight dropped from a height of 10 feet, according to experts on bird strikes."

Coastal airports are often near water; most airports are surrounded by a lot of grass; the combination means that flocks of birds often assemble where they can do themselves and the airplanes real harm. At an airport in Maryland I once aborted a takeoff in a small propeller plane -- the only time I've had to do so -- because, out of nowhere, dozens of Canada geese suddenly appeared in front of me. It's all too common, when approaching airports near water, to have to concentrate on flocks of seagulls (or crows, even away from water) in hopes that they will, by the very last instant, get out of the way and allow you to land.

And ditching in water? This is something that very few amateur or professional pilots have ever practiced for real.

To deal with an extremely serious problem -- failure of both engines, at least as now reported; to consider various options (on to Teterboro? back to LGA? what about the water?) while the plane is inevitably descending and each passing second narrows your choices; to decide on and commit to a course of action; and then to carry it out flawlessly .. all this deserves admiration, study, and thanks. So, yes, he's a hero. And one of several who emerged that day.
Uh, carry on.

I was on a plane once that hit a bunch of birds during takeoff. About an hour before we were to arrive at our destination, the pilot came on and told us that we hit the birds (there was a noise during takeoff, but nothing catastrophic sounding) and that they had no way of knowing whether the birds damaged the landing gear. So we would be descending like a normal landing, but if the landing gear were to fail to deploy on descent, we would be doing a fly-by and waiting for the (ready and waiting emergency personnel) to foam down the runway for an emergency landing. Happily the landing gear deployed on take one and we didn't have to go with plan B. There were a lot of firetrucks, ambulances, etc. waiting or us when we got to the airport. Quite a welcome.

Jet engine companies fire twenty pound frozen turkeys into their engines. I believe the standard is to remain operational after two. a flock? no chance.

edit: I've seen better videos of the tests, but this is sort of cool

NYT:

Quote:
Just seconds after the first officer of US Airways Flight 1549, leaving La Guardia Airport and bound for Charlotte, N.C., pointed the nose of his jet into the sky, he noticed that there were birds on the right side — “in a perfect line formation.”

The plane’s captain, who had been busy watching the cockpit instruments, managing the radios and looking at charts, then looked up.

The windscreen, he told investigators, was filled with birds. The plane, at roughly 3,000 feet, was going at least 250 miles an hour. The captain’s first instinct, he said, was to duck.

Seconds later, flight attendants aboard the plane reported hearing a thud or a thump — a sound they had never heard before. The engines went quiet. And the plane’s captain, Chesley B. Sullenberger III, smelled something.

“Burning birds,” he told investigators.

Obama first challenge to stand up for what is right
 
so Obama is getting his kids a Labradoodle, but people are pushing a "rescue dog". To me a rescue dogs means some older dog.

I think his girls deserve a puppy. They've waited all these years to get a dog, and a puppy is special. Shelters have puppies, but probably not a designer breed like that. I hope he says, "My kids' childhood isn't getting compromised to male a statement." Or maybe he can have one planted at a shelter and take that.

It's possible he could find a Labradoodle puppy at a shelter but it's a long shot. Could be a Christmas present that didn't work out, sudden transfer/move to somewhere you can't bring a dog, raid on a puppy mill....

I'm all for getting pets from the shelter but when allergies are an issue, you can't always go that route. I agree that his girls deserve a puppy. A plant would probably backfire on him so best to be straight up on it.

ETA: It looks like a Winnipeg shelter has a litter of puppies rescued from a puppy mill and wants to offer one to the Obamas.

I don't know whether they "deserve" a puppy, but getting a puppy is admittedly an entirely different proposition from getting a dog, with its own costs and benefits. And it's been a while since I had a dog of my own, but I think precious few trainers would recommend that a busy family with kids and lots of travel in their future who are first-time dog owners should get a rescue purebred. A mutt puppy would be the sweet spot -- a dog that might otherwise be unwanted but is less likely to have a purebred's genetic flaws. Puppy experience; less of the purebred's downsides.

I think a Labradoodle is a designer mutt. No idea whether it's in the sweet spot, but the name makes me TUALBIMM.
