And it was the lifeguard headquarters building, not the lifeguard towers themselves. It probably was as much a waste of money as the stair chair in the Philly home dugout but not quite as rEdiculous as if it were the lifeguard towers.

My old roomate's Shiba Inu puppy ate a brick of hash, a full shishkebob with the stick (and the stick was completely intact--dog couldn't move and the vet gave us the X-Ray to frame) and lots of weed (my roomate was very careless, and after the second time it happened, obviously very stupid). I can't believe the hash didn't kill him. He was just a few pounds and ate so much. He just rode it out. Started off melo and then just conked for like 36 hours.

The lesson's learned. These sorts of convulsive re-arrangements aren't cheap or easy.

And those doing the suing get to learn a lesson as well: Perform more due diligence and bring something a person can't flush via dissolution.

Everybody gains, all richer in character for the experience.

1. I was initially responding to Fugee, who was concerned about the employees.

2. I don't think your argument holds watuh. If the guy is complaining that he can't see the food and you make it so that he can see the food, I can't imagine a court saying, "Doesn't work. He needs to be able to see the food from the exact same angle as the average person with working legs." Then again, I couldn't imagine the court ruling on this one the way they did, so here we are.

Better than the wheelchair-bound sneezing under it out of spite.

Even that doesn't make sense to me. Lifeguard towers in my part of Los Angeles already HAVE ramps.

Don't tell me how to be. Brainy chicks are my specialty.* If dtb hadn't remarried I would have a 50/50 shot with her right now, which is a coin flip closer than Adder's gotten.

*Recognizing here that I'm on the outs with Gwinky. The charm doesn't work 100% of the time.

Sounds enticing right about now. What happened with the shishkebob? Surgical removal?

Not an argument so much as sarcasm about this panel's stupidity.

This from the woman who thinks a guy whose leg hurts from a chronic condition should be allowed to ride a cart on the PGA Tour?
