" IMO, Bill Clinton would have never got to where he got had it not been for Hillary pulling those reigns."

Reigns?? The typist is obviously not a "horse person"!

An expression of condolence:

Sorry for your lost.

... with hoards of children in the car.

I had a vision of a car packed to the roof with kids of all sizes.

You're roof might cost more than your house.

Default Up for debate

From a local 'paper story on a railroad accident:


" ... he wants residents to know that no one is suppose to be near the railroad tracks."
...
"Nobody is suppose to be on them. They actually have on either side that it is railroad property and nobody is suppose to be on them at any given time."
...
"They need to go down to one of the vehicle crossing and cross there."


I'm used to hearing/reading "supposed to" instead of "suppose to" in this context. Sometimes the 'paper delivers comedy - although I'm not sure that's the intent.

You have to start somewhere thought and it's obviously a gold mind.

That mind may actually be composed of base metals...

If you want a few chuckles, go to the goodwill.com auction site. If you know anything at all about tools, look at the "Tools" listing. Currently there are 14 pages of tools at various Goodwill stores around the country. Many of those people have no idea what they are talking about!
For instance, on listing towards the end of the current bunch is for "A lot of vintage rotary tools". The only "rotary" tool I saw in the lot was the head of an old butter churn. No jar, just the head and paddles. There is a bit from a bridle, a couple of sickles, a draw knife, what looks like a soldering iron for use with a blowtorch, and other gadgets.
In another listing not long ago, they called an old reciprocating/advancing valve lapping tool a "reciprocating snake"!
It is fun reading the listings, and now and then I find a real treasure!

sorry i wouldn't wait for no tag to remove he killed my dog, that be a dead alligator.

That is where they live at. Sad that the dog got lose and attacked but it's nature. Like it or love it, it is what it is.

Glad it was't a child.

I'd be interested in know whether the fog was on a leash.
- an alligator killed a pet dog in Hilton Head, SC. These comments are from the local newspaper's facebook page.

This video of an illegal Airport Hanger Rave from 1989 could perplex you for all of eternity.
