The Height of Facebook Wit
« on: September 25, 2011, 09:49:47 PM »
[All due disclaimers about my being well medicated for a spinal injury and thereby slightly less blameworthy for actions]

A colleague of mine posted the news that he was going to be on a tv show, but he couldn't say what.

My post: To Catch a Predator
[He near immediately deleted this response]

Mutual friend suggested in response to my post 'Predator Wrangler'

Colleague then clarified that it would be a dating show.

My Response: Well, technically....

Colleague then deleted the opening post  >:D

I have quite literally been laughing about this all day with only the slightest twinge of heckler's guilt.   :P

Being largely immobile [and unable to focus for long periods of time] my sources of amusement have been quite limited.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

What happened?  Did the ambulance you were chasing stop suddenly?   :lol:

(All joking aside, hope you get to feeling better real soon.)

No interesting story sadly; just very aggravating.  Took a snowboard to the spine a fair number of years back, has been recently aggravated.

Ned, you are suppose to put the snowboard on your feet not on your back.  :P

Well, as my lawsuit clearly illustrated, at the time there was no proper warning or even notice against the practice.  :P

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
