IlliniKrush Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Jan 8, 2008 -> 05:45 PM) This just happened at work: I just had a really neat racist guy just tell me to please pass on a message to my bosses about removing the “English” or “Spanish” option on the ATM because bi-lingual-ism is destroying America. Apparently it’s a “soft issue” that our programmers should be able to fix. Wow, who knew? Apparently, old racist guy did. I don't see how that is clearly racism.

Mplssoxfan Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Jan 8, 2008 -> 02:08 PM) Yes. I have had several games of Diplomacy that went of for quite a long time. I have a friend who will never play that game with me ever again. I made a friend of mine so mad once by "forgetting" to support a convoy that he didn't speak to me for a couple of months. It really detracted from that particular game for him, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Three days ago I burned the roof of my mouth on a too hot pizza. Eating has sucked for three days. Warm salt water rinse helps a little. Crunchy food does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxy Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Last night my cat bit the hell out of my hand while I was petting her when she saw the dog. I got blood ALL over two towels and my just washed comforter. The dog then threw up repeatedly for the next three hours and the new dog had it flying out the other end. When I went to the doctor this morning because my hand is uber swollen, the prescription he gave me (apparently cat bites get infected a lot) wouldn't get filled because eff'n CVS wouldn't recognize the new carrier of my prescription plan. After two hours fighting with them and MedCo I finally got my damn augmentum. Ugh. Worst day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 WARSAW (Reuters) - A Polish man got the shock of his life when he visited a brothel and spotted his wife among the establishment's employees. Polish tabloid Super Express said the woman had been making some extra money on the side while telling her husband she worked at a store in a nearby town. "I was dumfounded. I thought I was dreaming," the husband told the newspaper Wednesday. The couple, married for 14 years, are now divorcing, the newspaper reported. (Writing by Chris Borowski, Editing by Matthew Jones) The proper response is "looking for YOU!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 And this one from Houston, Man's best friend my ass . . . HOUSTON (Reuters) - A Houston-area man was killed in a hunting accident after his dog stepped on a loaded shotgun in the back of a pick-up truck, triggering a blast that pierced the vehicle and the hunter's leg, a local sheriff said. Perry Price, a 46-year-old math teacher, shot a goose on Saturday then put his gun in the back of the truck where the dog was waiting to retrieve the bird. "I've been in law enforcement 20 years and this is probably the strangest one I've had," said Chambers County Sheriff Joe LaRive. Investigators found paw prints and mud from the dog, a chocolate Labrador retriever named Arthur, on the shotgun, LaRive said. Price was taken to a local hospital, but died from a loss of blood after doctors were unable to revive him.
