  1. I don't know about Pokemon cards, because I never had anything to do with Pokemon.

     

    But round about 2000 I was in an antique store and they had these.

    That's the kind of crap that makes you feel old. It's bad enough that they have the toys you played with as a kid. But when they've got the coffee cups you've still got in your cabinet. Dayum.

  2. I am surprised. All these replies, and not one person commented on the sugar in the cornbread recipe.

     

    Normally if there's a thread, on any board I've ever been on, involving cornbread, about the third post somebody will complain about the sugar.

  3. I'm watching the mummy part 2. And one of the good guys' horse he's got this knotted macrame looking thing hanging down in front of his face.

     

    I've seen pictures of Arab horses - not Arabians like we got here but actual horses owned by Arabs over in the desert - with these tassels before.

    Is that just for pretty, or does it have a purpose? Like maybe keeping sand out of the horse's eyes?

  4. I think part of it is they're embarrassed.

     

    "Oh my God, he's asking me questions and they've got a camera on me, oh my God. I'm going to be on YouTube oh my God!!"

     

    And then of course we have the idiot asking questions badly - "what part of 10 is 6.2?"

     

    What the hell does that even mean? Then he rephrases - "percentage wise. What percentage of 10 is 6.2?"

     

    Well stupid, you should have just scratched that off, and not asked her that. Go find somebody else and ask him the question correctly - "6.2 is what percent of 10?"

    This note must be later than when I was a kid.

     

    When I was in the 5th or 6th grade there was a convenience store down at the end of the road, about half a mile. And about halfway between my house and there lived a man in a wheelchair. And he would sit out at the edge of the road until a kid come by, and he would give him some money and send him to the store to bring him back a pack of cigarettes and a loaf of bread and a pack of Bologna. And for running this fair and (ERRAND, get the peanut butter out your ears otto) the man would give you a dime. Never heard of anybody taking his money and not coming back. Christmas that year I went down to the same convenience store where I had been buying cigarettes for this man all summer, and I bought a five pack of Tampa Nugget cigars for my father's Christmas present. I was 11 years old. They had no problem selling me cigarettes and cigars. I didn't need no note.
