If they did it to each other, why is either of them getting charged? If I were the judge, I'd say "You both carried out the sentence on each other. Stop wasting my time, case dismissed." |

| Olympic rings |
[May. 12th, 2008|10:37 pm] |
As originally conceived, the five Olympic rings (N. and S. America combined in one ring) were supposed to have five colors such that each color is represented in each world flag. (Red, yellow, blue, green, black.) The one exception that comes to mind is Qatar, which is brown and white. Perhaps it's time to add a sixth ring to distinguish between the Americas, and make it Qatari brown.
Why the post? Wondering if any of you can think of another flag without any of those five colors. (Translation note: "color" = colour for those of you not from this country. Which I think is zero of you.) |

Playing with a group of fellow blind veterans enrolled in a Veterans Affairs health care system program, Dunham's volunteer assistant lined him up with the ball, handed him a 9-iron and stepped back.
Dunham swung through the ball, hit it squarely and it landed softly on the green, taking one hop before nestling into the bottom of the cup.
Dunham's group erupted into a cacophony of cheers and high-fives.
Question: How would they know? (And also, how do blind people high-five?) |

Don't send me an e-mail on the 16th saying you weren't able to get payment from me when I can check my balance and see that on the 15th, the exact amount of the payment you require was deducted from the account. Something right criminal there. |

dream moral #2: if you mispronounce a word as important as "route", i will be much more inclined to let the deranged sex predator catch you, and i'll just escape with my other friends through the window (because according to Clue, we had to break the window, not use the door, and second window from the left), and he and i will head outside and have some drinks and catch up with people from high school. (oh, and the police car right there didn't care i was breaking the window. as i said, Clue told me to do it. why Clue? who knows.)
p.s. this is yet another dream with a non-working elevator. (this one had six doors to close, and then was a manual chain pull - we were trying to hide in the women's restroom, which apparently required an elevator, and didn't take the other elevator into the hotel itself. the chain stopped pulling and the elevator sank back to the first floor, and we opened the door and got out just ahead of the predator.) i don't hate elevators. why do my dreams? and why do my dreams also seem to hate hotels? |

best movie of '07: sweeney todd
best state clinched [drove all highways] of '07: delaware (RI is second)
best license plate of '07: i am ALPSRDS. look for me wherever fine driving is found.
worst sickness of '07: i've had the same symptoms twice in the last three months. it'd been over a year before that. blah.
best new friend of '07: let's see, who's reading this? i'll go with ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) cassius614 since, well, she's 12 kinds of awesome. (she also gets best Jeopardy winner of '07 and best college entry of '07 by going to Harvard)
worst sports team of '07: depending on your definition of worst, either Knicks for having no players and no coach, or Patriots for being the first team to be caught cheating - and then running the table. guys, i'd be careful... you'll just be caught again soon.
worst sports player of '07: no contest, *arry *onds
best vacation of '07: Montreal. oh hoh hoh. poutines.

best new friend of '08: no one reading this yet. i will tentatively say "sam."
worst sports team of '08: probably still the knicks. honorable mention bruins for being the only boston sports team not blatantly beating everyone else.
worst sports player of '08: again, *arry *onds. he's not gone yet.
best vacation of '08: Hawaii (i don't think Montreal revisited can beat that) |

| Informal meme time |
[Nov. 22nd, 2007|10:27 am] |
Pass this one around.. I will be flattered to see it in your journal!
Take Facebook, or Myspace, or any other networking site with a birthday calendar. Figure out the number of friends in each month with birthdays, and post here:
Lowest month: Sept., Nov. (4)
Second lowest: Oct. (5)
Highest month: July (16)
Second highest: June (12)
Why do I want this meme spread? I wonder if it will show that people are most sexually active in the fall and least active in the winter? Or if my friends are somehow skewed from the truth? |

Torre turned down a $5 million, 1 year deal with performance bonuses that would make it worth much more than that. He just accepted 3 years at $13 million, no bonuses. 13/3 = 4,333,333.33 per year. Mr. Torre? 4.33 < 5. |

Dear Friend,
You might find it difficult to remember me. Though, it is indeed, a long time. I am much delighted and privileged to contact you again, after such a long time. It takes God fears to remember old friends and at the same time, to show gratification to them, despite circumstances that made things, not worked out as we projected then.
I take this liberty to inform you that, the transaction we were pursuing together finally worked out by God's infinite mercy. I decided to contact you to let you know that I have conscience as a human being and it is only God in His wisdom that knows why it did not work out for us in the first place.
Meanwhile, I must inform you that, I am now on holiday in Australia with my family. I just arrived yesterday Night and checked inn, in a hotel and decided to go down to the hotel business centre to mail you. Now, with my sincere heart, I released a total sum of USD750,000.00 as cashier check with my secretary in Republic du Benin.
Therefore, contact my secretary now on.
NAME: Mr. Hubert Soglo
EMAIL: hubertsoglo@yahoo.fr
Yours Truly,
Ahmed Abdulmalik
Time to claim my money. Bye, America! |

Ever wonder why if you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding? How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat? It appears to be a delicious play on "Them 'at eats t'most pudding gets t'most meat", a Yorkshire saying among poor families who could afford little meat, but could fill themselves with the cooked batter that is Yorkshire pudding.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yorkshire_pudding
Pink Floyd appears to be turning society on its head, and I'm sure I could go much deeper into this, but the revelation appeared that they were not talking about dessert pudding, but rather this particular one. So, how bout you guys think and get back to me? |

I usually don't post anymore, but I HAVE to make an exception. On Fuji cameras, it starts putting your images in folder 100_FUJI. When you get to 999_FUJI and pic DSCF9999, your camera shuts down. That's it, it can't reset itself. There's a way to do so within the file settings, but anyone who knows me knows my screen is broken. I was up to DSCF9840 or so, and getting nervous, when I had an idea. I copied an image to the camera, labelled it DSCF9998, and took one photo. Then tried to take another - no good. OK, that means I would have to configure my settings to roll over automatically.... OR, it means that whatever I label a photo, my camera will remember that. So I tried labelling one DSCF0002 and copied it over, and sure enough, the next photo came out DSCF0003. I am true genius! :D |
