    April Fools & Showers

    You know what else is distorted around Detroit? The temperatures. Holy crap it's cold up here! Then again, this Sunday in Laredo - 105°F, this Sunday in Detroit - 54°F, so there is that.

    April Fools & Showers

    While I do sleep a lot, and it often appears like I am in there sleeping, more likely I'm just nekkid in there. Notice the primo parking spot? Best place on the lot to get a good satellite TV signal. :D

    April Fools & Showers

    Seem like every time I come to The Yard, John leaves. Not just leaves, but gets on a plane and leaves. I 'm sensing a pattern here.

    Boy Scouts needn't apply

    I had a feeling as I read it that the article was likely biased, and likely with selective facts. I thought that much especially when I read that the BSA had abandoned their "sexual standards" and that the Boy Scouts have a responsibility to protect the "sexual integrity" of its members. I would...

    April Fools & Showers

    I've finally got my Inglés back, or most of it. But I just a través de through Arkansas, so I'm estúpido now. Well, more estúpido than before. Three weeks and three days on the border, lots of sitting, but also lots of running stuff from one border town to another. Nogales, El Paso, Calexico...

    Her words, not mine. Irrelevant, though. Right. Yes. Exactly. Goes to the poster, not the post. ...tea in China. Motives of the poster, not the post. All true, and none of which is part of the topic. A PM would be an excellent place to explore such things. His words, not mine. I don't care...

    Por fin estoy bajando de la frontera! Debo tener mi Inglés vuelta por Dallas. Sólo espero que no empiezo a hablar como un Michigander

    Ducks................

    In that case, don't ever eat french fries cooked in duck fat. Dogs can live their entire lives without eating chocolate and never miss it, but if you ever give them a piece of it then that's all they ever want. Potatoes cooked in duck fat is exactly like that. :D You fry them first at about...

    Ovary.. appendix.. whatever

    I "harranged" RLENT and stated my reasoning long before I mentioned anything about the team I had the conversation with. I stated my reasons quite plainly in posts #48 and #50, and I stand by them. Like I said, I didn't use that conversation to make my case, which would have been hypocritical...

    Offer a solution then. In what way should the actions of members and mods alike be changed?

    Another "Zero Tolerance" Runs Amok

    They're not some kind of swamp cannabis. Mellow out, swamp dood. They originally came from the Malvaceae, or the Mallows family of plants (okra, cotton, kola nut, cacao), specifically the genus Althea Officinalis (healing plant), known as the marsh mallow, marshmallow, or simply mallow. The root...

    They're parked three spaces away from me, and nope, they won't. But whether they do or not is irrelevant, as I'm not using them to defend my position, and their comments echo the same comments that have been made here in the past by newbies and veterans alike.

    I'm sure you aren't. However, there are potential posters who are, two of whom (husband and wife team) referenced this very thread in a conversation on Saturday night. They were sitting in Denny's and I noticed EO on their laptop as I walked by. I asked if they were EO members and they said they...

    I'm a turtle and I drive a Sprinter hauling expedited freight. I think that's hilarious.

    percentage or milage

    I don't know anybody here who has said that's considered GOOD money. I'm pretty sure that what I said was, in the context of driving someone else's Sprinter, that it's "not great, but not bad." And that was also at the worse case of 50 percent deadhead and getting paid 30 cents a mile all miles...
