Why wouldn't you? Haven't you heard. There's freaks out here on the net!
But seriously, I mostly hide myself cuz I don't like e-grams, and half the time when I'm logged in here, I'm not really logged in. I just haven't logged out.
that's right, THX1138 isn't going to obey authority like a good little republican. he was very disrespectful to the police officer too. he must hate cops.
Oh.... my.... God... ok so I watched that trading spouses thing with that big fact psycho lady.... can we say creepy??? " I'm a God warrior, I rebuke this in the name of the lord" blah blah blah, lady, go eat a Twinkie and simmer down. I mean, don't get me wrong, I sure as hell ain't one to talk, I'm fat, and damn it, I like Twinkies, but geeze Louise, not only is she crazy, but she's controlling, possessive, and God only knows what ever else. I seriously thought she was going to have a heart attack!!! :chagrin:
Oh, yeah I got the ticket, and I really pissed him off.
He threatened to have me towed.
Basically I said, "You can't have me towed, you can only give me a ticket here, and even if you could, my wife will be out in a minute and I'll be gone, so just give me my ticket, and move along and harass someone else".
Once after a snow storm my car wouldn't start. I called my son who came over and was in the process of jumping it when a cop stopped and started writing me a ticket. I told her, can't you see I'm going to be moving it in a few minutes? She said the tow truck was going to be along in a few minutes and I was in violation of the storm parking law.
The tow truck didn't show up until the next day and I went down and paid my ticket under protest. Wasn't going to make a big fuss over $15, but I let them know what I thought anyway.
They're are not all pricks. I deserved one out at Lake Harriet and he let me go even after writing it. I think that was because I had backup with me. Don't mess with the CC I told him. We have THX. I'm sure you've heard of him. And he's on our side damn it! :eyeroll: :wink:
I also didn't get one parked downtown when running into the library when I couldn't find a spot during that last clue. Life is fair sometimes.
I did, however, have to go to court to fight a handicap parking ticket. I managed a building in WSP and parked in that same spot every night because it was after hours and those signs are only in affect during business hours of the building they occupy and I always parked there well after they closed. They threw it out immediately. That's after I waited all day to be seen after all the other cases. That's always fun anyway. I like watching other people get all upset and nervous over minor tickets like it's the end of their life or something. :chagrin:
I'm dead tired cuz I got to watch almost every hour of this final table... I missed about 1 hour because I went to dinner myself.
I'm so sorry I'm not going to post all the details tonight...I'm deadtired after this LONG game last night...went til 2AM vegas time...(4am here) and ofcourse I never slept past 5am.
I got up this morning and played in a tourny myslf and missed the payout by 1 spot.....was fun thou...was a 60person tourny I was in......I'm really happy with my poker game and I learned more in 17hours of watching the worlds best pros and getting he chance to sit with Mike's brother for most of the tourny to hear his ideas and thoughts on almost every hand.
oh and this will air on Dec. 24th...so I guess I'm going to be like jake and be on tv.
Hey Guys - I happen to LIKE fruitcake. I make one every year and then soak it in brandy so you get drunk from it too. THX avatar makes me hungry every time I see it.
Have ya'll gotten chain letters before? a couple of years ago I got a fruitcake one but it was different - you got this cake wrapped in tinfoil - and you had to put it in your freezer and then the next year mail it to someone else - it had a sheet with a list of people who had it before me and I think I was 27 on the list. I was dumb enough to unwrap it and the damn thing still looked edible (altho rather hard)
makes me wonder what all the premade companies put in there.
My 4rth grade teacher lost an uncle on the Edmund Fitzgerald. Glad they finally found out exactly what happened that night. Hope it provided some closure for those families. Just sad.
But seriously, I mostly hide myself cuz I don't like e-grams, and half the time when I'm logged in here, I'm not really logged in. I just haven't logged out.
For example, my real name is not THX 1138. Hell, it's not even JT, but I won't tell you here what my real name is.
I was trying to make people believe your real name is Tim.
Now you blew it.
Like a true 'fruitcake'.
I'll call you later and we can figure out when we can go fight them.
these chips are dry.
A quote from Scribe
::digs hole, jumps in, burys self:: :lipsealed:
::notices Tim in same hole and give quiet ^5::
he compared him to a renta-cop at the mall....
and we were forced to sit through his lecture about how "parking enforcement cops are real cops too"
and that "even my dad was a parking enforcement officer over 50 years ago!"
I'm sorry to hear that, officer... can I go now?
 :cool:
Im still waiting for a new TV show to pop up on NBC one of these times, titled "Law & Order: Parking Violations Unit"
I told him to give me the ticket because I was picking someone up, and I wasn't going around the block again.
He threatened to have me towed.
Basically I said, "You can't have me towed, you can only give me a ticket here, and even if you could, my wife will be out in a minute and I'll be gone, so just give me my ticket, and move along and harass someone else".
The tow truck didn't show up until the next day and I went down and paid my ticket under protest. Wasn't going to make a big fuss over $15, but I let them know what I thought anyway.
That what happened to Timmers the other day, and why I got into it with the parking cop.
atleast with meatloaf, you can save it with ketchup....
fruitcake is unable to be saved....it sucks, and theres nothing anyone can do about it...
and as long as you're in the vehicle it can't be towed anyway.
They're are not all pricks. I deserved one out at Lake Harriet and he let me go even after writing it. I think that was because I had backup with me. Don't mess with the CC I told him. We have THX. I'm sure you've heard of him. And he's on our side damn it! :eyeroll: :wink:

I love it even more when it's not my money...
Otherwise, I suck so bad at it, I'd never show my face at any kind of poker tournament.
Basically the only way to win that is to befriend a cooler crew member.
Fruitcake has sugar. Meat-log does not.
