I got suckered into the 100 Revolutionary soldiers, they came in a box about as big as a check book box. Each guy was about 1/2 inch tall.

I never delivered Grit nor did I stop a robbery with my pair of Dingo Boots. :thumbdn:

You know what else I got suckered into was the electronic football game. You could get whatever team you wanted and an opponent, then you line them up and turn on the vibrator thing, and your guys move.

Except they never moved where you wanted them to, and that little directional thing on the bottom of the players worked not at all. Then you had to cheat by picking your ball carrier (with the foam football) and move him beyond the defenders so he could score, but he still always went backwards.

Ahhhh, good times

Oh, okay, taco SHELLS go in the oven. I see where you're going now.

I thought you meant the whole (home-made) taco went in there.

Why do different clouds form at different heights in the atmosphere?
A: The characteristics of clouds are dictated by the elements available, including the amount of water vapor, the temperature at that height, the wind, the interplay of other air masses, mountains, etc.

[zombie-a-go-go]

Use clorox bleach :D

I've got some buddies and we all drink bleach
You know we practice what we preach
We're not a drunken bunch of frat-boys
Trashed on beers
Or a stoned bunch of hippies
With no careers
I wanna drink bleach with a Georgia peach

My pals and I all drink Clorox
Or eat Snowy Bleach right out of the box
Teenage suicide rate's shot high
And we understand the reasons why
Bleach does more than whiten socks

Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys, baby?
In a world where ministers murder golf pros
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

Maybe there'll be a party at the beach
We'll ***** about life and chugalug bleach
No one's getting high, and no one's getting drunk
I've got a case of bleach stashed in my trunk
I wanna die with Clorox within reach

I'm very proud of the respect I've earned
And my voice is very deep cause my throat got burned
Bleach keeps you young so I've been told
Cause no one who drinks it lives to get old
Drink it with a chaser was the first thing that I learned

Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys baby?
In a world where midgets run for mayor
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

I had 26 friends in the beginning
But now it seems our numbers are thinning
Some people drive fast, others love to bet
Still others snort coke in a private jet
But drinking bleach is my way of winning

Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys baby?
In a world where welders own our schools
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I'm so bored I'm drinking bleach
I am so bored!
I am so bored!

This probably belongs on the pet peeve thread - but I'd rather put it here first.

I hate when a couple goes into a restaurant and either in a booth or at a table that has two chairs on each side and then proceeds to sit on the same side! What the hell is that??????????

If two girls go to the same booth they don't sit on the same side. If two guys go they don't sit on the same side. Its just stupid - what are you gonna hold hands while your eating morons! You have to be so close that for one freaking meal you can't sit across from each other, you know, so you can look at each other during the conversation??!!

It is so stupid, you sit across from each other to see each other while you talk/eat, generally just the experience of eating out, yet these morons have to sit on the same side cause they just can't be that far apart from each other for one freakin meal!!!

My gawd, it looks so stupid! Morons!!

[RosieRed]

Aww, look at the babies!! So cute!

[westofyou]

What the hell is that??????????

First of all, the boyfriend is just GROSS... Not only is he very unattractive (which he can't help, so it's not his fault), but he lacks personal hygiene skills immensely!! EWWW EWWW EWWW!!! A little less cuddling, cooing, and nibbling, and a little more EATING FOOD, please!!! :mad: My stepsister is almost 26... She should know better!!!

To sum up, I give all these tests a big :thumbdn:I took the ACT twice because there were a couple of other people in my class who were tied with me for high ACT score and i wanted to be #1.

Skunks dig holes in lawns and golf courses, eat garden produce, prey on poultry and waterfowl, damage beehives, den under buildings, are a host for rabies, and spray musk.
To reduce problems with skunks, remove rubbish piles, store garbage and pet foods in sealed cans, seal foundation openings, spray insecticides on lawns to reduce grubs, install fences, or capture skunks with live traps.
Use alkaline hydrogen peroxide or a diluted solution of vinegar to remove skunk odor from pets and clothing.

Won't matter anyway. I was thinking to myself last night, it wouldn't matter if Sparky Anderson started the game thread vs the Cards, we'd still lose.

Ok, how about this one. God made you the lucky one today since you got the day off of work. Maybe that's a sign that you are the "chosen one" today and will reverse the luck of the Reds. Start it up, Rosie!! :thumbup:

[Red Leader]

I still think the Reds are going to lose, though ;) :lol:

That's better Red Leader! (I was really just looking for something like "Hey, this is baseball ... anything can happen!")

But now I'm feeling pressure. The "chosen one" is tough to live up to! :eek:

Truth be told, I do too. :MandJ:

[Unassisted]

Skunks dig holes in lawns and golf courses, eat garden produce, prey on poultry and waterfowl, damage beehives, den under buildings, are a host for rabies, and spray musk.
To reduce problems with skunks, remove rubbish piles, store garbage and pet foods in sealed cans, seal foundation openings, spray insecticides on lawns to reduce grubs, install fences, or capture skunks with live traps.
Use alkaline hydrogen peroxide or a diluted solution of vinegar to remove skunk odor from pets and clothing.That's useful. We have skunks in the neighborhood and mysterious holes in the yard. I don't think I want to trap them, though! :danger:

Oh man, that reminds me... once about a thousand years ago I was in the ER. There was some old coot in the curtain next to me. A young Dr walked over to him and this is what I heard through the curtain.

Dr in a soft voice "Mr Dunn (name changed cause I don't remember the real name), that burning you have, it is because you have Gonorrhea.”

Mr Dunn “huh?”

Dr a little louder “you have Gonorrhea.”

Mr Dunn “huh?”

Doc just a little louder “Gonorrhea, you have Gonorrhea.”

Damn dead seamonkeys, what a waste of money I spend on those darn things!

So, now we have hit on food, trash, porn, sea monkeys, driving tests, criminal activities, beer and jack Daniels, almost every 80's TV show, grilling, skunks and now the clap - we might just cover every subject imaginable on this thread.

Well, except for baseball that is, I mean what, are we on a baseball board or something??

To me, that's the beauty of this thread.

No baseball, no politics. Nothing but hanging out with good people and swapping stories with no agenda to promote.

I've made some great friends here at the zone, and this thread is like hanging out at the neighborhood bar, talking about life. Talking about Reds baseball hurts right now. I'd rather hear about Roy's first car, or WOY's cat.

[Super_Barry11]

Boys are evil... And yes, I do mean BOYS, cause this guy is DEFINITELY a BOY!!! One of my best friends just moved back up to Cleveland at my college today (I'm heading up Thurs), and she called me all confused and upset... People kept stopping by her room to tell her how sorry they were and that they'll take her out drinking later. She had no clue why she was getting everyone's sympathy until finally someone revealed the complete truth- her boyfriend of 9 months had arrived on campus yesterday and told everyone that they had broken up over the summer. But my friend had NO CLUE about this development!! :eek: This wasn't just another boyfriend for her... This was her first love and her first, well... Everything!!! :mad: Granted, they didn't see each other over the summer since he's from California and she's from Columbus, plus he went to Air Force boot camp and she was a counselor at a youth camp, but still... A little communication would've been preferable, thanks... :(

[RFS62]

Yeeech!!!!

Why would you have a skunk in your mouth?

[Roy Tucker]

Oh, and our dog caught a full blast from a skunk a year or so back. The vet recommended Dawn dishwashing detergent, hydrogen peroxide, and baking soda. We did that about 50 times in the first night. Man, it was bad.

It took a couple weeks for the overt smell to go away. It took about 6 mos. for it to go away completely. Every time she got wet (and she's a lab and gets wet a lot), the skunk smell would come back.

Brand new skunk on a dog smells like burnt tires. It is something I'd really rather not go through again.

[creek14]

Yeeech!!!!

Gosh and I was just going to make the generalization that all disaster relief guys from NC who have liked the Reds since 1962 are hot. Sexy. Whoa baby. Vavavavoom.

But I won't do that since I don't want to be evil. :mhcky21:

[Super_Barry11]

I know, I'm sorry... I'm just frustrated, that's all... In the past week, 2 of my closest girlfriends have been treated rather badly by guys, and suddenly, without warning, the guy I had just started to date quit talking to me. Out of nowhere!!! I've called him a couple times and left some messages even, but I've heard NOTHING back from him!! This is the same guy who used to call or email me EVERY SINGLE DAY for a month!!! We'd talk for hours almost every day, and now... He's been kidnapped by aliens, evidently... :thumbdn:

Well now, let's not get hasty. Perhaps I should have said SOME generalizations are evil.

Yeah, that's the ticket. SOME of them are evil. While SOME of the others, oh, say, like the one you randomly mentioned, are right on the mark... bullseye.... dead center.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

Hey, SB11..... I've read enough of your stuff to know how genuine you are, and I've heard enough from people I respect, like that exceptional judge of character Creek14 person (see above post) to know that you are a class act.

No doubt about it, the two examples you cited are textbook cases of evil boys. And they all too often find their way to nice girls/women like you.

I just don't want us all painted with the same broad brush because of the insensitive and immature actions of the least common denominator.

[Super_Barry11]

Aww, thanks RFS62... I just hope you weren't offended by my post, which is merely the result of an annoyed, bitter girl!! :MandJ: Sometimes I use this thread as a way to vent, but fear not, I know very well that there are many wonderful (NOT evil) men out there, starting with all the great guys here at RedsZone!! :)

[letsgojunior]

Sorry about that SB - is it possible that he's out of town or something? Normally I'm quite skeptical of these guys and their general motives - but maybe he's out of touch.

[RFS62]

Not offended at all, SB.

I've got a 23 year old son who just got married, and I'm very proud of how he's stepped up to his responsibilities and turned from a boy into a man.

I always believed he had it in him, but seeing it happen has warmed my heart in ways I've never imagined.

He's a far better man at his age than I was.

And I know that all the trials and trevails that you young women go through with idiot boys are only making you stronger, preparing you for the day when you meet a true man who is worthy of your intelligence, your personality, your grace.

Your physical beauty is the icing on the cake. The things that last, the things that matter.... those things that make a difference when the chips are down and times are rough, the times that we ALL go through in our journey through life.... don't lose sight of you base values, and never lose faith in the goodness inherent in men and women just because you come across a few bad apples along the way.

[Super_Barry11]

Sorry about that SB - is it possible that he's out of town or something? Normally I'm quite skeptical of these guys and their general motives - but maybe he's out of touch.

Good thought, but he has to work, so he can't go on a vacation or anything. He went to high school with my best college friend and lives down the road from her, so she's seen him a few times this week and told me that he isn't acting weird or seeing another girl. He did mention to her that he couldn't go on our date this weekend since he has to work, but she didn't think it was odd until she mentioned that fact to me and I had no clue about the change of plans!! I really don't know what to think... He was telling both me and all of his friends at home how much he liked me, but now it's like he flipped a switch and I don't even exist anymore!! :confused:

[Larkin Fan]

Sorry to hear about all of this, Super_Barry. It really bothers me when some guys act that way, because it gives the rest of us a bad name. I'm a guy obviously, but I'll never understand that actions of some. It's just important to remember that not all of us are that way and that one day you will find a guy that will treat you the right way and will make you forget all of the bad experiences you've had. :)

And listen to RFS62. He's the king of all advice. :)

[RFS62]

ditto what LF says.

My dad gave me the best advice when it came to girls and dating. "No matter the result, return them in better shape than you found them."

Believe it or not, there are decent, quality guys out there that care. Now I just need to convince myself that all girls don't go for the jerks.

[RFS62]

Ya know, this thread reminds me of the inscription on the Statue of Liberty....

"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

or pharaphrased....

Give us your tired of the constant sniveling on the baseball side,
your huddled posters yearning to breathe free,
the wretched refuse of your game threads.
Send these, the postless, moderator tossed to me,
I lift my thread beside the non-judgemental door of fellowship among all Reds fans, great and small.


:gac:

[Super_Barry11]

Now I just need to convince myself that all girls don't go for the jerks.

Yeah, many girls do have that nasty habit of falling for the jerks... I have to say that if a guy's a jerk deep down inside, I am out of there!! If you include this last boy of mine, I've dated a "grand total" of 3 guys, and the first 2 of them were absolute sweethearts without a hint of jerk in them. I'm puzzled about this last one, though, since my best friend has known him since they were in diapers and he's always treated girls very well and with the utmost respect in the past.

[RosieRed]

<Rosie gets serious>

Okay, in light of all the boy talk in the last couple posts, I just want to clarify, for RFS62 if no one else, that I do not think all boys/men are evil. I know I've made a few posts along those lines. However, I am friends with a lot of guys, and I wouldn't surround myself with jerks.

BUT when it comes to dating or having a more-than-friends relationship with a guy, well ... let's just say I have trust issues, and rightfully so. I also have pretty high standards. I've been around enough to know what kind of man would suit me; he ain't easy to find, and I'm not about to "settle"! :)

That said, it doesn't really matter anyway, because I'm not looking for him any time soon.

Now, onto this post:

My dad gave me the best advice when it came to girls and dating. "No matter the result, return them in better shape than you found them."

Believe it or not, there are decent, quality guys out there that care. Now I just need to convince myself that all girls don't go for the jerks.

Paintmered, I don't really understand that advice. Is it just another way of saying "treat people well"? Cause I'm sure this isn't what it means, but I've read it a couple times and I can't help but think it implies something along the lines of women need to be fixed. (And who exactly are you "returning" them to?)

Yeah, okay, I'm showing my inner feminist. I admit it. :)

But I will validate the second part of your post. Not all women go for jerks, I promise you. Nothing turns me off faster than a guy acting like a jerk.

</Rosie gets back to unseriousness>

[Puffy]

I have nothing to add to any of this, but I haven't posted in a couple of pages and I didn't wanna be left out.

My father gave me some advice too, and I'd like to share it with you. One day while I was raking the yard, right after my apparent acceptance to Princeton, he said "Joel (which is funny, cause its not my name and I didn't apply to Princeton), Joel, sometimes you gotta say What the Heck"

And thats been my philosophy with women since then!
