Why is it that older children find me scary, but younger ones don't?

Older children know more?

The traffic congestion in New Jersey is getting ridiculous. I can hardly reach the speed limit anymore.

And when there is no congestion, there is still someone driving 5 to 10 mph under the speed limit like a total asshole, slowing down anyone that actually wants to get to their destination.

Sheep aren't great dancers

Today we went to our local County Show. As usual it was a massive affair with hundreds of stalls, several display arenas in action at once and miles of pathways through the event.

One large stand was about sheep farming for wool. As well as demonstrations of sheep-shearing, they had a stage with eight sheep on display, all from rare breeds. They stood perfectly still while the characteristics of each breed was explained, whether they were best for wool, meat or both, and then came the highlight of the act.

Some pop music was played and each sheep, in turn, danced to the music.

They were useless dancers. I suppose they were good, for sheep, but it took considerable suspension of disbelief to see their movements as dancing.

The 'breakdancing' sheep repeatedly went down on her knees and waggled her head. The ram did 'pelvic thrusts' which could have been imitating intercourse. The 'ballerina' extended first one front leg, then the other, followed by alternate back legs while balancing on the other three legs. One was supposed to be doing the 'moonwalk' but didn't move its feet...

They were rewarded with treats from the presenter and applause from the audience.

But why? Why dancing sheep? Just to prove that sheep are rubbish at dancing?

Strange, that, Ogg. I've seen displays like that round here at a disco. . . .

How am I supposed to work on anything when the phone keeps ringing every two minutes with you asking me something stupid? Shut the fuck up and let me finish my work before you complain about it!

And pay me for fuck's sake!

I stand here crying in the rain and you're too busy holding the umbrella over your own head to pay attention.

One of these days I am going to remember to clean out my air conditioner's filter BEFORE the hottest day of the year...

Alright, I admit it. I've seen Scott Fitzgerald's line from The Last Tycoon quoted a thousand times and I've never really fully understood what is meant by its invocation.

There are no second acts in American lives.

Is it intended to mean that there are no comebacks? If so, it doesn't make any sense.


Anybody care to take a shot at explaining what quoters intend when they cite the line?

I am beginning to realize just how dangerous that "Snapshot" feature on Skype really is...

Stupid dreams about women out of my reach...

Goddamnmotherfuckinghellshit.



I hadn't been stung by a bee since I was who knows how old ( 14? who the fuck knows). So..., what happens when I'm walking back through the glen after my run this afternoon? Right! I get stung on the leg by a mother fucking wasp.


Sonofabitch, that hurt. At least I smashed the fucker.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

Ow. My left leg hurts from the glute through the calf, my right thigh hurts, my left elbow, my right shoulder... I'm surprised my hair doesn't hurt

Damn! My sports physiotherapist has advised me to see the back consultant because my a/s (ankylosing spondilitis) has caused significant movement in my spine curvature in the last couple of weeks.

It had moved 1/2 an inch in five years. It moved 3 inches in 2 weeks.

That is not good.
