M Darcy, where in Germany? I was there 1968-72, my dad was AIr Force I remember Nixon resigning because it was the summer between freshman and sophomore year of college.. we sat in the dorm lounge to watch the news (nobody had their own TV, you damn spoiled kids...) I followed Watergate like it was Days of our Lives. We were so happy to see the rat bastard go.

hate to be "that guy", but the Chevette didn't exist in 1968 My first car cost $2000. I paid for it ALL BY MYSELF and no one cosigned the load. My parents would have laughed their heads off if I'd asked them to buy it. BF would have as well

When JJ asked when the dog was inside smirk face said "when we let him in" (ack, what happened to the buttons?? they seem to be disappearing intermittently in the reply box) I always wonder why such people bother to have a dog, if they aren't going to interact with it? Smirky McDouchebag is a person whose ass cannot be kicked enough.

You probably didn't see being pregnant as the crowning achievement of your life and the only thing of value you as a woman can produce. And also that being pregnant enhanced your husband's manly standing in the community, which you as a submissive wife are duty bound to support

Apparently there are people who are in a twist because the Duggars aren't back on TV, what with them being wholesome Christians and all... I guess it takes all kinds. What I find fascinating about Lenny, beyond the fact that a $10 an hour intern could have found his skeletons in about 5 minutes, is that he is a very Orwelllian nonperson to FN. It is as if he never existed. Have they ever rerun those shows?

But that mold is only there because she couldn't be in the place to clean...it grows REALLY FAST. Like, right before your eyes That girl is a P-I-G pig

The exact thought occurred to me as well.

And was the band...CCR?

Re: car selling on Craigslist--Jalopnik is quite enlightening on the subject, as they usually are for things automotive http://carbuying.jalopnik.com/how-to-avoid-craigslists-rampant-sight-unseen-purchase-1707158966 http://carbuying.jalopnik.com/curbstoning-how-not-to-fall-for-this-one-common-craigs-1683448736

It made me think of Love in a Cold Climate, which I adore. I wish PBS would rerun the original BBC series made from the Nancy Mitford book From Wikipedia: "Fanny, Louisa, and their children are living at Alconleigh, along with Matthew, Sadie, Emily, Davey, "the Bolter," and her new lover Juan (whom Uncle Matthew calls "Gewan")"

Oh GOD, three years in the military! Practically George Patton. It's an odd number of years though--if he was drafted (he looked like he could have been in during VIetnam) he'd have been in a year; if he enlisted it's either 2 or 4 years depending on which service IIRC. My dad was an Air Force lifer--28 years. He doesn't make nearly that big of a deal of his service, although he is a bit OCD about the flag (he always takes it down at night). The other guy was an ass though. Flying the flag upside down because of the 2000 presidential election? I'm OK with that. Because your HOA objected to your gnome display (or whatever his beef was)? That is just being needlessly douchy

So...don't prosecute crime because God will judge? I just don't see it. You're applying a standard much differently to the Duggars than to the average pedophile or bank robber--has nothing to do with "this generation". Just being "sorry" doesn't suffice, even though they are theoretically Christian (I kinda think Christ wouldn't be in the fan club either since they don't seem to be truly repentant for anything except losing their show and their bully pulpit).

I envision this as a game of mad lib dropdowns The plaintiff is suing the defendant for a dog bite/not paying a loan/false arrest/crashing into their car/pain and suffering/unpaid rent The defendant is countering that there was no agreement/it never happened/it was a gift/the dog was just playing/it was all his/her fault because he/she/their dog started it The parties live in California/Minnesota/a trailer park/a van by the river/a room they rented from craigslist

Ack . You're making me defend Alex My grandmother who hailed from the state of Kansas always called the river the Ark kansas. The state was Arkansas.

maybe it's like one of those houses where 3 people and a dog were killed in their sleep.

the car guys agree with you and mock all Camry buyers as driving "appliances"

OK: who thinks he will research where TLC does its banking, and put his money there?

You KNOW he'll pay you back when he gets his taxes

I don't think that's material. Lots of people who commit crimes are truly sincerely sorry, yet they still are punished by the judicial system. Completely appropriately, I might add. Praying the perv away seems to be their answer. Fine for them, not for society.

People in the 50s dressed up to ride planes and go to baseball games A different world.

NOBODY beats the Wizard. NOBODY

Yes. And no.

If there is a God, he's in some thoroughly awful place. Perhaps getting some counseling by cleaning septic tanks without gloves

I came up with Canterbury quickly and figured "that's so easy, they'll all get it" Apparently not. You just never know

And that, kids, is why they're going on Fox instead of CNN or ABC. Or Al Jazeera. Or BBC. Or ZDR. Or PBS I'd love to see Katie Couric have a go at these dimwits. First she's all sweet and friendly, then KILL
