Doesn't she look proud to be wearing the crown?
That she manages to retain so much dignity while wearing that getup is a tribute to the nobility of the breed.

Hmmm. Would she be more of a freak to admit that she took the picture long before I had my avatar, or to admit that, inspired by my avatar, she ran out and bought a pink princess costume for her dog. Well, no need to enter the realm of the metaphysical. On two points we can all agree: 1) dtb = freak; 2) my avatar still reigns supreme over nearly everyone.

Tea Believed to Boost Body's Defenses
By PAUL RECER, AP Science Writer

WASHINGTON - An ordinary cup of tea may be a powerful infection fighter, a study suggests. Researchers report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (news - web sites) that they have found in tea a chemical that boosts the body's defense fivefold against disease.

They said the chemical primes immune system cells to attack bacteria, viruses and fungi and could, perhaps, be turned into a disease-fighting drug someday.

I have asked several directly, and they tell me that, while it is insulting to be considered a secretary when you think of yourself as a legal professional, the candy and flowers and resaurant trips are nice. The shorter, more direct answer is, this is one of those situations where you can offend someone no matter what you do.

For those of us who can only dream of being near someone as cool as you, will you provide any information about the source of your avatar? Do you know that cat?

I had a white cat as a child and my mother just reminded me about how distressed my father was when I named him Frosty. I was eight and he was really never called that, it was just his given name. He was also too macho to ever be caught wearing a pink hat and a cape.

What you mean to say is that he was insufficiently secure about his sexuality to wear a pink hat and cape. Sad.

I would do it today, since if you do it tomorrow it will be pretty clear you forgot and are trying to make up.

Traditional heterosexual acts
 
This is probably for the politics board, but it'd be much more fun to talk about here.

"I have no problem with homosexuality — I have a problem with homosexual acts, as I would with acts of other, what I would consider to be, acts outside of traditional heterosexual relationships," Rick Santorum said during an interview taped April 7 in his Senate office.

I think it would be helpful if he went sex act by sex act and let us know if it were ok. I fear that many of us may be engaging in non-Republican sex acts. We're probably all on safe ground engaging in missionary (or is that mercenary?) position intercourse, but after that, who knows? I assume that any and all back-door action is totally out now, which impacts at least two of us here on the FB. Probably three-ways are out, too. What about blow jobs, though? I'd hate to be blowing someone and find out that I'm engaging in an act outside traditional heterosexual relationship, though it's been a pretty traditional part of all of my heterosexual relationships.

leagleaze 04-23-2003 12:47 PM

I get a sense he wouldn't be ok with me going down on another woman.

But he wouldn't mind if I sucked a guy's cock.

Or maybe I have it backward.


Or maybe that is his problem. I mean maybe he isn't very good at oral sex, and as a result, he is envious of those of us who are good at it.

Clearly anal sex is out, cause you know, eww.

My list of players I hate is short, but my hatred is intense (please forgive my spelling):

Bossy (I still hate him the most)
Messier (hated him until Gretzky left, liked him afterwards...even as a Ranger)
Tikkanen (I hate him a lot, too. I'm glad he has no cartlidge in his knees.)
Kasparitus
Claude Lemieux
Konstantinov (I hate him, but I do feel sorry for him because of the accident.)
Barnaby
Niedermeyer
Scott Stevens
Tikkanen is one of my all time favorites. I almost had a Tikkanen jersey custom ordered.

Ron Hextall has to be my all-time most hated player. Followed closely by ["Beat your wife"] Denis Potvin and ["Buy a Porsche Smitty"] Billy Smith. Roy is running close.

I've forgiven Mike Bossy since his sister was my poolside cocktail waitress in Maui.

I'd rather be in that sort of situation than be leading a blow-job celibate lifestyle and find out that I have Senator Santorum's approval.

Oh, and on a different subject altogether, I heart Ray Bourque.

Santorum's such a nit. The only difference between Republican and Democratic sex is that the Republicans pick mistresses who have the sense and tact to keep their mouths shut when they're contacted by the National Enquirer. I'm sure Republicans are just as likely to cavort kinkily with bimbos or to stick a cigar someplace extremely unappealing as Democrats.

For the Senator, I'd assume a traditional heterosexual sex act is one where the woman does not have an orgasm.

I guess he would be condemning Siegfried & Roy then?

The Preamble covers it " in order to form a more perfect union . . . ")

As does 1st Amendment (Congress shall make no law . . . prohibiting the right of people to assemble"

Amendment 19 states that a person "shall not be denied . . . sex"

Of course, the drafters helped out Congress as well. See 16th Amendment ("Congress shall have the power to lay"). See also 17th Amendment ("when vacancies happen . . . people fill the vacanicies").

There you go. Have at it.

How to post a picture
 
If you want to post a picture do the following. Right click on the picture. Click on properties. Copy the link you will see in there. Come back to the board, click on IMG, right click, and paste the address you copied in there

If you don't want to do that just type the IMG blocks

I can't show you that because it wouldn't show up but put a block around either side of IMG before the link and put a block around either side of /IMG after it.


Except you would use [ ]

It looks like this

(IMG) http://linkgoeshere (/IMG)

Be sure to use the / after the link or it won't work.

The unedited AP transcript of his interview is quite, um, entertaining. It contains this memorable quote from the AP reporter:


“I'm sorry, I didn't think I was going to talk about ‘man on dog’ [NTTAWWT] with a United States senator, it's sort of freaking me out.”

Too bad there was no reference to "man on cat" so that threads would converge.

Sounds like something Maggie said after sharing a few lines of blow at Studio 54 with Liza, Mick, Bianca, and Andy.

Apropos of nothing, why does Gommorah get off so easy these days? All we hear about are the sins of Sodom. (which weren't really "sodomy" so much as a lack of hospitality to angels, but that's a different story...)

leagleaze 04-23-2003 02:16 PM

It gets off (heh) easily because the point is to draw a connection between sodomy, or more specifically homosexual sex and the end of society as we know it.

The name Sodom of course makes people think of sodomy, they don't remember it was a sin of inhospitality they think it was because people were having anal sex with each other.

They also always forget that sodomy includes oral sex.

Three-way? Only on consecutive nights. It was, however, incestuous, if that helps. Gen. 19:30-38.

Of course, as with the Sodom story, it's an ancient way of dissing your enemies in your diary. As a result, at times the Torah reads like a spiteful story being written in a remote corner of the schoolyard by a nine-year-old kid who keeps getting beaten up by all the cool kids, and who has no other outlet for frustration. "And then a dog had sex with a donkey, and what came out was Jonathan Ledermeyer, who everybody totally hates behind his back and calls 'Horse-face.' And later, a snake had sex with a pig, and Julia Melloni was born, and that's why to this day Julia is a total retard who won't let me play with her Gameboy Advance, and all of her brothers are total perverts and her parents are poor."
