  1. Farther upthread there was a mention of people being dumb.
  2. As your attorney I advise you to rehab a banana boat and refit it for passenger service. You could carry a dozen+ passengers AND a load of Chiquita bananas because you yourself are the doctor the Man requires to have on board for such a case.
  3. Yeah, a friend used to say I was living like Hemingway. I thought he was complimenting me. I just now realize he meant I was a drunk.
  4. Not super-familiar, but will give it my best: Ohio: I would eat White Castle and join a club who work on model train sets. Michigan: I would do my Han Solo Mexican Border Smuggling, except with something in Canada. Or that I'd take that thing to Canada. Illinois: Listen to inlaws gripe about cold and wind. No wait, that'd be me. Ride actual trains. Wisconsin: I would get free beer from people when mentioning my dad played high school ball catching Bart Starr passes. Would gradually start talking like an elf, like they do. Minnesoooota, Dakotas, etc: No. Just no. Yeah maybe. Probably no.
  5. I spent a relatively mild winter in France, and the lack of light had me holed up in cafes staying drunk just to be around warmth and people. If I'd been farther east in Poland, I'd have needed an IV.
  6. Time spent on recon is never wasted. Walking is the Fountain of Youth. I should walk more.
  7. When I last worked in a convenience store, we'd play "spot the smoker" as people pulled up. Gray-skinned hunchbacks with pissed-off expressions = 95% hit rate. On Broke Friday it was "Lemme git summa them Basics."
  8. And kick cigarettes, and you can afford a nice clean house in Colima a short bus ride from the beach. Not to mention you can stop planning your day dodging into convenience stores all cramped over like a wounded lich-king who's suffering from a preventable crisis while croaking out "Gimme a carton of them Marlboro Reds" with a growly vocal affect like you're trying out for a speaking part on a Sons of Anarchy remake, mannnn.
  9. I see me and Barney leaning up against the alley wall, sharing the paper bag bottle like best of friends.
  10. He actually seems pretty decent as an announcer. Maybe he has a future outside of politics. He speaks well, doesn't look any a whole lot weirder than anybody else on TV, and the teens love him.
  11. I know I kinda snarked about it upthread, but I admire anybody trying to get in better shape. That said, 100 pushups at a time without getting VA benefits? I mean, sure, do it once to prove you can, but your non-18-year-old joints might prefer 4 sets of 25 or somesuch. [I never completed or started training in physical therapy.]
  12. It had to happen. So that you learned. Me my missed moment was not meeting and hanging out with a friend-of-friend's folksinger daughter 5 minutes before she hit it big on college radio. Suzanne Vega. That was back when I was a cute young tadpole not an old toad. Doot doot doot doot, doot da doot doot, doot dot doot doot doot da doot doot.
