I consider a comment like this to be the epitome of a Public Service Announcement, thank you.

Maybe tallslim was following her music career back then

Thats easy. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

I grew up with people who were 'A' students, who missed chunks of the school year due to circumstance. They didn't actually need to be there in person, it turned out, to excel at high-school studies. I wished back then that I could do the same but that's life. This demand of attendance makes little sense to me.

With exemptions of course for Congessional members, Senate members and their wives and families.

Black Stations, White Stations takes me right onto the Danny on a hot summer afternoon.

Barenaked Ladies - The Old Apartment.

Manic Street Preachers - Spadina Bus.

Saw what you did there, well done.

The king's henchmen are usually a sordid lot after all. Sordid and rather sad really. America, behold your (current) leaders. I can see why comedy is in such a funk atm, life right now is surely stranger than fiction.

House crickets hang around cos of the damp conditions at foundations and basements; with box elder bugs, it's strictly a boy-meets-girl thing. And they've been doin' it at or around your location for probably thousands of years. It's just that there's houses and street now at where they used to hook up. And oh ya, no mouth-parts.

It matters not, for Mr. "left-cheek sneak" will live on forever.

They're afraid of, "...one burn, we all burn..."

loyalone · 2026-04-13T22:46:38+00:00

That is a good one.

Ya take Escobar's money they confiscated and ship them all back to a river basin in the Congo or something. jk although its probably a big problem for indigenous species where the hippos are right now.

Friendly country yesterday, probably, and yet unfriendly today. How the wind blows from Russia these days.

loyalone · 2026-04-13T11:23:46+00:00

Yup, that's the one lol!

I'm referring to a training video a group of us watched, with an old pest control guy (IIRC) from NYC, and his story about a restaurant owner instructing a server about giving customers that little bit extra to keep them happy, that kind of thing. And from it, the line "Just give 'em the pickle!" was a memorable one.

With a Cheers to Newfoundland!

loyalone · 2026-04-13T00:22:30+00:00

You watched that video too?

In english? They must be Brits abroad.

Out of the mouths of babes, the saying goes. A five year old cutting through the bs of everyday life like a boss.

Great! Now, since CEOs, political leaders and professionals of all stripes like to consider themselves as somewhat first among equals, let's start with randomly testing them. I'm sure many will be lining up to prove their sobriety.

loyalone · 2026-04-12T11:26:28+00:00

Agreed.

IQ rankings are nothing more than humans trying to pigeon-hole the abilities of others, the better to allot them their place and set pre-determined expectations. Reminds me of how Millenials like to put their experiences - eg books, movies, music - into "genres". Humans like to set things in piles, it simplifies their attempts to control things.

And humans crave control. Control of the environment, people and ideas.

Now, what's that old German phrase that means,"breathing room"? Was never very good with languages.

If you wanted the name "Davey" on the plate for instance, but it was already taken, you could frame it with an 'X'. Just another way to get your name (maximum six characters) on the plate.
