Re: walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
 

Month long heat waves with 20 plus old ACs suck too. $400 electric bill for a 1000 sqft house that never really got cool.

Re: walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
 

Did Hank hack your account or do you have heat stroke?

Re: walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
 

That's like my winter monthly heat bills before I replaced my 50+ year-old furnace with a shiny new super efficient one.

It was so cold last night that we had to put a second comforter on the bed. Around 49-50 degrees. Everyone road trip to SF!

Fashion Foopa?
 

Grey leg coverings of some stretchy fabric. I must wear tennis shoes and socks. The shirt is fine.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

do you mean sweatpants, or leg covers over pants? what color is the shirt? it's a package question fringey.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

Stretchy pants, black shirt with pattern. It's on Facebook.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

I may change to black tshirt with silver octopus. I am fine with the tops, which go and are nice.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

isn't it too hot for the shirt? it's July in LA. otherwise fine for events short of semi-formal.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

Where are you going in this outfit? To the opera, formal dinner, or a wedding, not such a good idea. Just hanging around? Wear whatever makes you happy. You've got more important things to do than worry about whether anyone thinks your outfit is sufficiently trendy.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

A doctor and maybe out to dinner.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

Wear what makes you happy. You don't have to dress up for the doctor -- especially for as much money as you are making them!

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

I am just wondering if the pants are generally passable. I am now at the doctor's office in them. And a shirt.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

i wore jeans to the opera, in vienna. is that wrong?

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

As long as there is no camel toe, they are fine for the doctor's office.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

Was it a rock opera?

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

doctor's? no. those are too casual. can you sneak out, get home and change? maybe your mom can run to the store and buy you something more appropriate? you need the doctor to focus on your case, and when you dress too casually you're saying you aren't taking the relationship seriously.

trust me on this one.

That seems weirder than "Jerry Springer: The Opera."

Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

No camel toe and I think she took me seriously. She had some of the history. The lower body garment helped her in testing reflexes and seeing what worked and didn't, e.g. in walking.

Re: Fashion Foopa?
 

Dinner will be in, not out, so nothing to worry about there.

Re: walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
 

Our basement is unfinished and quite creepy. Literally. We also live quite close to Forest Park, so sleeping under the stars is out--the critters (coyotes, deer, skunk, rabbits, raccoons, moles, rats, etc.) are used to having the run of the neighborhood at night.

It's supposed to break tomorrow, and our lovely friends with AC have left us their house key. We were there all afternoon today. We came home just before 8 pm to 88 in the house and 98 outside.

Re: walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
 

Down to 87 out; 86 in on the main floor. Glad my basement isn't creepy. Cheesy, sure. But the occasional big spider aside, not creepy. And still reasonably cool. The family was fully fogged in on the coast all day; weird thang, weather.

Was there ever a doubt?
 

"I would suggest everybody get tested, not random, everybody," he said. "You go team by team. You test everybody three, four times a year and that's about it."

And if a player tests positive for steroids?

"Ban 'em for the whole year," the slugger said.

"I think you clean up the game by the testing," Ortiz said Monday. "I know that if I test positive by using any kind of substance, I know that I'm going to disrespect my family, the game, the fans and everybody, and I don't want to be facing that situation.

"So what would I do? I won't use it, and I'm pretty sure that everybody is on the same page," he said.

That was then. We'll see what he has to say now.*

"Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, the sluggers who propelled the Boston Red Sox to end an 86-year World Series championship drought and to capture another title three years later, were among the roughly 100 Major League Baseball players to test positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003, according to lawyers with knowledge of the results."

That's why they call you Big Papi, indeed.

* Oh wait. We already know: Asked about the 2003 drug test on Thursday in Boston, Ortiz shrugged. “I’m not talking about that anymore,” he said. “I have no comment.”

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

Damn. 100 positives?

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

What ARE you talking about?

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

From TM's article on steroids and baseball players. 100 of them tested positive. That's a lot. They need a modern day Judge Kennesaw Mountain Landis as commissioner rather than Bud Selig.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

That isn't news. That number was published when A-Rod was outed as being on the list, if not before.

These are the results of the 2003 "anonymous" sample testing that was part of the negotiation between the league and the players union over implimenting testing. The results were supposed to be secret, but one can see how the players' didn't have much of an argument against testing after 100 of them, including several of the biggest stars, turned up dirty.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

That was my pick for a boys name for baby no. 2.

All kidding aside, it is a really cool name.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

Yeah, that 5% threshold (or whatever it was) sure blew up on their face. Multiple times.

What I'm wondering is if how if there were 100 positive tests there were basically none since then (yes, a few, I realize). Did the masking agents get better or did players actually stop using PEDs?

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

Probably just switched to HGH.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

Handjob practice! how inventive.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

I feel a young lady is best advised to keep her jaw line fit, even moreso than her arms.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

Plus, gwnc would only get a forefinger/thumb workout with you.


ZING!

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

Oooooooh shit! No you didn't! No. You. Didn't!!!! It's on now, baby. It is so on. Everybody else, keep your heads low. Cuz the shit is gonna start flying in this motherfucking house!

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

at first i thought you were implying that i have a smallish penis, then I feared you were perhaps outing me about the sores, so she wouldn't want to touch it too much, then I realized you might just mean she has man hands.

you should strive to make your prose more evocative of your intended themes.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

Awwwwww yeah, I knew it! I knew it was on! This was what I was talking about. Holy motherfucking shit, Hanky, put the beatdown on him! A to the fucking K! You don't fuck with the motherfucking Hank unless you want to be totally called out on your unevocative prose. Coltrane's gonna be thinking a little bit more about his intended themes before he starts trying that Zing shit on the Hank-monster.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

Have truer words ever been written?


I didn't think so.

Re: Now we know how GWNC got those nice arms
 

It's like Mariah Carey vs. Eminem! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0ykZ...layer_embedded

(Side note: Do not fuck with Eminem.)
