The plane has come to a complete stop on the runway and : "I just wanted to tell you both good luck.  We're all counting on you."

Such an absolute classic. "Looks like i picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue!" 

Here in Norway you can reserve yourself against telemarketers. And it works! I never get calls from telemarketers. I get a text every now and then, though.

It is not possible to reserve against opinion pollers, though. But they call me very rarely for some reason.

I'm on the DO NOT CALL List, which (In the U.S.) is supposed to prevent them from calling, but Robo Callers and Cell Phone scammers still get through sometimes, ...(and charities and surveys are allowed I think) and since they're usually spoofing the numbers on your caller ID,  It's hard to turn them in.  Also they made it really hard to turn them in,  rather than just a few questions, they make you fill out way too much paperwork (online paperwork,  if you will)...I've already complained that no one is going to waste their day answering more than a few questions,  Like time of day, phone number they called from, and what they said,..Stop asking a bunch of other crap and go get these guys!!

Hey, I remember when they passed the CAN-SPAM act of 2003.  That worked great, didn't it?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAN-SPAM_Act_of_2003

An unknowingly infected person rides subway train, then when the infected person realizes he is infected, he must use a time machine to go back and ask everyone on the subway platforms and train to write down their names, addresses, and phone numbers.

No, that's not how it works. They're only asking for contact info of people you know personally, whom you've had extended close personal interaction with.

Now...Say you go around licking people's elbows, or getting excitedly into tickle fights with strangers, or playing thumb wars in front of 10,000 people, (maybe more)...Next thing ya know,  say you develop some symptoms...Now it's probably just allergies from putting guinea pigs up to your eyes even though you know you're allergic, or a cold from rubbing up against your hot female cousin while she strummed your banjo the other night at the hoedown...On second thought, You know, whatever I was saying,  I think I'll stop here;   Wouldn't want this to get silly...

Goes ahead of what?

Goes ahead of what?

It's just harder to find a rhyme for "vegetable".

Try legume, that might be easier.

Perfume, "the room", exhume, resume, etc.

Beans, the musical food. The more you eat, the more you're rude.

Beans, timebombs of fun. First you eat, then later they run.

Beans, the lava in you. Once they erupt, it smells more like poo.

Beans, musical legumes, the more you eat, the worse the fumes.

Happy Birthday, Larry! Thanks for all the great games. I'm proud to have almost all of them in my collection, complete in the box, although I still need to pick up Brain Games.

Air-Sea Battle!

After Activision he went back to Atari as a manager.

Flying by? This is the longest winter I can remember.

| What Joe said!

I saw that the tourist board in the Canary Islands is running a GoT inspired campaign called "Winter is not coming", complete with a windsurfing Daenerys Targaryen lookalike.

The best thing about being 44 is that you were around when Atari released the 2600. Hell, you were around when Fairchild released the Channel F! That gives you unrelinquishable street cred. Happy birthday.

Tombstone's right! And Happy Birthday! We're all in the same boat as far as mortality's concerned...Don't sweat it...

Thank you all.

I'm enjoying it myself! We had a mad snowstorm in May but I think it'll be close to 80 today! Anyway I really like Wyoming's weather in general, but even sweating up a storm mowing lawns or getting rained on..I was ready for Summer!

To each his/her own though,...It's funny it seems like you have 3 days of perfect weather, then it's either too hot, too cold, too wet, or too windy...

A few days ago it was like March, cold and windy. Tomorrow it'll be like August, hot like PMS hot flash. I want normal Summer!!

^ I'm quick reader Flojo,...But I tend to skip words...Lessee you said you live in a crack house?

It goes to 11? Why not make 10 be the highest and just go to there?

But this goes to 11!

It's about time you got here, Star Fox!

I like foxes a lot. They're like little dog cats, but smart. And they live in garbage, which I can relate to.

^ lol! That was the best thing I've read all day.

I've only seen a fox in the wild once. Very cool looking creature.

That's OK! I think carlsson ate 'em all ... So,...Do we tell him about the thing?...wait Wait, Not yet!

Burp.

That was fun. Let's do it again? Who do we kick out next time? LOL! I'll bring the cookies!

Roadrunner, stop starting shit! TIGuy, stop continuing shit!

ShitList++;

Sorry sir, won't happen again Sir. I think.

CRAB CAKES!!!

So what did you have? Sometimes I'm half full with those fantastic biscuits before the entree arrives. :-)

I had the Seaside shrimp trio with mashed potatoes and broccoli as my sides. I had one of the biscuits. I didn't want to fill up on those.

It cost $20.99 so not too expensive.

They spawned the term "scaredy-cat" for a reason, although I know there are exceptions.

The scaredy cats are easily startled, but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers.

Them cats travel single file to hide their numbers...Hey wouldn't that make them easy targets?

Just have to get through today and then I can enjoy "longer" nights

Winter is on the way.

Thank god.

Time flies. I hate those little bugs. But seriously it's an interesting phenomenon that most people experience time moving faster as they get older.

I want a pool.

We've already hit 85 in the last couple days.

Maybe it is his wife with a rolling pin ala Saturday morning cartoons?

so basically you walked 4 miles?

Way to go! I'm a Heart attack and Diabetes waiting to happen. I'll have to start exercising soon also, and YES, slowly also!!!

With my winnings I'll buy AX a better car!

I'd like to buy a vowel.

I would buy more video games.

I agree you should just learn how to do it, it is really easy.

DeOxit is your friend.

And, people could make fun of your video game playing the same way.

Fewer things are sweeter than the tears of Cowboys fans.

I heard that 1 in 3 people have to deal with shingles at some point in their life...(I could be wrong, I'm quoting a commercial from memory)...Also usually it's just one episode...(though it could be more)

Whew, shingles are some nasty scary stuff. My housemate got them on his legs a few years back and they made his life pretty miserable for a while. Hope it clears up soon for you!

Thanks for all the well wishes.

I'll have you know that the money I used to buy myself chocolate peanut butter eggs is real; they wouldn't accept Monopoly money.

We get completely absorbed into this holiday trend. We pass paper notes back and forth like in school.

There seems to be some pent-up frustration in this thread.  Must be a lot of single guys on AA...

??

To the Great White North, eh!

I think ...though I may be wrong....Atarian7 just quoted one of the great cult albums of all time and didn't even know it ...haha...
