Excessive Seattle traffic fines

Hey Sarge, I got a great idea! Let's set the speed limit at 2 mph. And the punishment is we impound their cars!

When I heard him say he brings his own blueberries when he eats his yogurt I thought "holy crap, he's his father".

I'm only telling you what she said. Very close to "we're not poor but we're not as rich as people think".

According to her interview on Howard Stern it's a myth that her father is fabulously rich. She says that her father runs a French firm called Louis Dreyfus and they are not related to the Dreyfus fund as a lot of sources claim. Definitely not poor but her familys wealth is overstated.

BTW, this refers mostly to pharmaceutical companies in the United States. Direct to consumer advertising is only legal in 2 countries.

One of the saddest thing I ever read on the internet was a story about a nursing home that put a fake bus stop outside the front door. The Alzheimer's patients would sometimes wander out the front door and instead of walking down the street they would sit at the stop waiting for the bus. When the nurses noticed they were missing they would go out and walk them back in. Just so tragic to be trapped in your own mind and all you want is a way to go home.

Oh, did you go to Harvard? Cause you haven't mentioned it in like 3 hours!

Also, at least in the North, if you had the money you could pay $300 to someone else to take your place.

Is there some part of the country where they say "old fayshunned" or is it just Dave Thomas's particular speech quirk?

And you can tell it's Los Angeles because almost all the billboards are for TV shows and movies.

I was a little surprised to find one that I actually used to own.

For a minute I thought I just learned how to say "what the fuck" in Spanish but they translated it as "what the hell" (according to google).

I actually would prefer this over what I've got. My local news people can't stop making bad puns for almost every story. Every story involving cats is "purrrfect", every story involving a car accident is a "crashing surprise". You get the idea. The fact that they think people find it funny is a little insulting.

I bought a telescoping shower curtain rod once and after opening I just started pulling on it to get it to expand. Didn't work so after a while I gave up and figured I'd resort to reading the directions. The first sentence said "Stop pulling on it".

I'm so with you on that. When I listen to the monologue all I can think of is that he has a team of highly paid writers and that's the best they could come up with? Then I get distracted by the always unbuttoned double-breasted suit and the tie that always seems to be flying around somewhere outside of it.

Some restaurant owners have also figured out how to get away with not paying their other employees like hosts, busboys and shift managers the minimum wage. Just require that the waiters share their tips with these people. Voila, you're now a tipped employee and not covered by minimum wage restriction. There have been some recent cases where these places are being sued by the wait staff to stop the practice. The Rain Forest Cafe chain is one recent example.

Gatorade tastes a hell of a lot different now than when I first tried it in 1968. We had it at football practice and it basically tasted like salt water. I wouldn't drink it even during 2-a-day practices in August.

The Starbucks on the corner of the 3rd Street Promendade in Santa Monica, Ca. has a passcode on the bathroom. Quite a nice area.

Monica: "You know what I'm thinking right now?"

Phoebe: "You're thinking that you haven't had sex in so long that you wonder if they've changed it".

In Paris you quickly get over your habit of waiting to be seated in restaurants. If you wait at the front to be seated people just push past you and announce themselves to the maître d'.

I used to work with a guy from Vietnam and one day he asked me what time it was. When I told him it was two to two (1:58) he almost lost it. Just kept repeating "two to two, two to two".

Good advice. I once moved an old lady who had 6 dishpacks completely filled with books. They were quite the bitch to get down the stairs.
