My son was keen on them at one time, as I recall.
I'd never heard such tuneless noise.

My friend caught the drumstick thrown by The Damned's drummer Rat Scabies. She was so excited, but her mother just said: "Is it catching?"
:D

Even after more than forty years, my skin still crawls just thinking about this movie.

Doesn't help any either that the theater I saw it in had a rat problem...brave rats that crawled around looking for loose popcorn as soon as the house lights went down. :eek:

Wasn't he a member of the Rat Pack ?

:D
I love that scene in Clueless when Christian comes to pick Cher up to go to a party, very smartly dressed, and the Dad asks if he thinks the death of Sammy Jr. has left a gap in the rat pack. Cher has this gorgeous skimpy dress and her Dad says: "What's that? Underwear?" She says: "No, daddy, a dress." "Who says so?" "Calvin Klein."
:D

Wandering off into mental fantasy:
Dad: "And who is messire Klein ?"


PS. There's a red sky this morning
 
Reminds me of when a friend asks you for a "teensy favour" and wants your answer before revealing it.*



*This has happened to me.

Every person that's ever owned a pickup truck knows that story.

Being asked "You got any plans for the weekend?" usually means they are moving and want help or they just bought a new refrigerator and were too cheap to pay the delivery charge. :rolleyes:

Help me if you can I'm feeling down
and I do appreciate you being round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground...
 
Such a pity it's been wasted

Not totally wasted, but certainly shoved to the back burner for far, far too long.

The sad truth is we've been too busy with such much more important things to spend our money on over here on this side of the pond. You know, stuff like impeaching a President over lying about a blow job, invading countries so the oil industry and military contractors can make an extra couple hundred billion, gifting the Wall Street boys and banking thieves with a whole shit load of virtually blank checks after they raped the public (and the FDIC, FSLIC, FHA, etc) by playing fast-and-loose with everybody's money, and the last seven years of pissing away all sorts of money making sure the government was always in one clusterfuck or another just so THIS President looked like shit at every turn.

If we had dedicated just 5% of the dollars that were flushed down that Iraq toilet to the space program, Neil Armstrong would have lived long enough to see another man take another giant step...onto the surface of Mars!

<dragging my soapbox back to the closet. sorry, but having had the privilege of knowing John Glenn and Neil Armstrong, i tend to get just a little passionate about the space program>

There's a box of tissues just by your head. :D
I was more thinking less of Mars and more on mankind plus, maybe, a decent base on the Moon (a good place for Astronomers, I suspect).

Take that soapbox out more often, JKD.

Amen.

I hate to be a party-pooper, but hasn't THIS President spent most of his term in office invading countries so the oil industry and military contractors can make an extra couple hundred billion, and gifting the Wall Street boys and banking thieves with a whole shit load of virtually blank checks after they raped the public (and the FDIC, FSLIC, FHA, etc)? I think that the Republicans are morons, but THIS President is not about to get a free pass from me.

And let's not forget this.
