  1. ?.. Yeah what's up with that! I found that when I'm using a public urinal and another "Male" walks up to the open urinal next to me instead of an empty vessel a few down I will start to make small talk and they usually can't wait to finish up and get away. Sometimes leaving without washing their hands..?
  2. Vague instructions can often get one frustrated.
  3. Now is the time to post sir Jeremy, you have the floor and our undivided attention, well for as long as we can hold it.
  4. Actor Ronald Reagan was the 40th American President who's party affiliation was Republican although he was raised in a Strict Democratic household.
  5. Pantyhose makes a great paint strainer.
  6. Tires are on a boat are useless unless it's a tug or an Amphibious Vehicle.
  7. Attitude was in full force yesterday while I tried to "pull" three 8" diameter poles up and out of the ground only using the shake the BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH out of it and man powered bear hug grip method, thankfully they weren't set in concrete. (Not an irk nor a pleasure)
  8. circumvented situations on a road trip that could've ended badly are usually followed by either foul language and hand gestures.
  9. Gee if you didn't live so far away I'd be willing to ride by to see if you have discarded any model kits.. ? all joking aside its a pretty neat idea and everyone benefits.
  10. Times traveled by UFOs, wormholes and cosmic forces are all at play in these things you speak of Mr. Bill, at least that's what the History Channel says.
  11. graffiti was originally known as cave paintings..
  12. Album cover art and other illustrations by Frank Frazetta can be found not only hanging on walls but as tattoos.
  13. "Mother of a trucker was found at a roadside rest area late Wednesday night by Park Rangers when doing their rounds" announced the news reporter on scene.
  14. Job? I seemed to remember having one or two of them at one time.
  15. Great that means i'm not the only one with painting disappointments even though I sprayed lacquer for 30 years on cabinet components.

  17. Mistakes although annoying and agitating they are essential in learning.
  18. Stitches and needles are used during a surgery or knitting a sweater, I prefer the sweater!
  19. You can never park far enough from morons... They're like magnets, one always deems it necessary to park with you.. from my observations over the years it seems that it's the the behemoth individuals that roll out of the tiniest cars, always makes me chuckle..
  20. We have similar rules and guidelines here like your "Listed" status. They are referred to as a Historical site or a Landmark. Those structures have special guidelines that must followed to the tee to insure the preservation of historical accuracy when repairs or replacements are made to any portion of those structures. Not all communities have an HOA.. Each Home Owners Association has a set of bylaws/rules that apply to each property equally under the scope of the HOA. There's no opting out and there's yearly dues that must be paid. If you don't pay and fall in the rears they can place a lean on your home which must be settles before they ok the sale of your home. You must sign an agreement when buying a home under an HOA. At this time they supply you with a copy of the bylaws. An HOA usually has board members made up of individuals who own and live in the community. These members are voted in annually during a special meeting. An HOA can be a good thing IF you get board members who are not busy Buddies, know it alls or just downright pain in the arses. I was on our HOA architectural board for 2 years.. Never again. People acted as if you owed them a rubber stamp on their request even if was obviously against the bylaws.. Can't wait to be out from under their thumb! Just know you're lucky you all don't have them..
