Don't believe everything you have heard about retirement, it's underrated.

Porter tastes like sock, stout like shoe.

I try to give a full days work, sometimes it takes all week...

If the upward trend of this morning continues, you might be able to retire early! I want balanced hysteria.

I think this morning people's political beliefs and preferences are leaking through somewhat. But with that considered, I find it uplifting that even with all our diverse political thoughts that we have the polite, respectful, and fun conversations that we do here. If there ever were a reason for making P&R a separate, walled (pun intended) section, then we're seeing it today. It vindicates SW's decisions regarding that particular topic. The second thought being if we can coexist and enjoy each others' company as we do despite our political contrasts, then why can't more people behave like us?

Not if we all keep it clean, civil and light.

I like to drink a Mother-in-Law, a combination of Stout and Bitter.

And I want early retirement! Ha!

DOW and S&P are slightly UP for today, Nasdaq only a few points down. Much ado about nothing.

Hear hear! My LPRS (Local Public Radio Station) is no doubt on the left side of life yet the listeners are suggesting all kinds of cool songs - Imagine, etc. This is a new beginning so we might as well get on the train since it is leaving the station with or without us. And I'll echo the positive affirmation for Wheel's leadership. It ain't easy keeping a bunch of picky individuals like us happy.

Looking for a Canadian man looking for a wife...preferably some old coot who made his money in the Yukon and can afford to keep me in bikes.

Porter and Stout were at at one time interchangeable terms for the same styles. Now the general difference is considered to be that Porters are lighter bodied than Stouts, but not necessarily lower in alcohol. The way I look at it, Porters are a drink, Stouts are a meal...

SuzieQ, Health and Human Services, or whatever they are calling HEW these days!

Nice smartass work.

(A young girl of 18 or 19, clearly a first-time voter, skips the line and rushes up to my table.) Me: “I’m sorry, you’ll have to wait. There’s a line.” Voter: “I’m sorry, but it’s important! I need to get my ballot paper back. I voted for the wrong person!” Me: “Alright, give me the spoiled one.” Voter: “I can’t. I put it in the box.” Me: “Then I’m afraid we can’t get it back. The boxes can’t be opened until the end of voting at ten o’clock.” Voter: “But I didn’t know! I don’t want the Conservatives to get in so I voted for [Conservative candidate]. I should have voted for someone else!” Me: “Um, why did you vote for the Conservative?” (The girl turns scarlet and looks utterly miserable.) Voter: “I thought it was like TV where you vote them off!”

I'm always missing a buck by about 24 hours. Which leaves me a day late and a dollar short.

Brakes? What?? OH!! Your car!! I thought you meant with your rifle. I was going to suggest sighting it in. Carry on....

He's too busy with parody threads and bots! SF

That's a religious holiday? I thought it was a democrat woman.

That's good, because it wouldn't be a fitting moral choice for a Forum Administrator. Leave that kind of stuff to lowlifes, and degenerates.

...when the time comes, should I go with Cherry, Alder or Walnut?

To each, his own. I certainly understand addiction issues. It has some parallels to food, too, in that it's not physically addicting, but still can be quite psychologically addicting. Trust your judgement.

Exactly. I'm the type that can get addicted easily. I have a lot of food / sugar issues. I imagine I'd be stoned all the time. Don't forget, I have a greenhouse, I can grow my own.

Asked the guy with a locked door between him and the passengers.....

Why are the flight attendants running away from the passengers?

We don't need no stinking wall.

I am confused. By "Denver" do you mean Toronto or Paris or Amsterdam? Also, are you not scared to be up in a plane with all of the markets crashing and the sky falling and all?

I installed an updated that moves almost every post to P&R for the next week. Life is good.

Don't panic. If you are going long, things will cycle again. I might put off the floor purchase and buy some cheap stocks. You might be rewarded later. Do your homework and proceed with caution.

Here's a guy whose glass is half full!

Things are going on sale, including housing I would assume. If you are going long, it should all work out in the end.

We are in mourning.

I was staying off the internet this morning, I was afraid to look.

That was a cheap plug.

I am glad I have good breaks..and managed to see the cashier

Even if you're the president and chairman of a company that builds and owns ships, I still think it's a bit self-centered to name one of them after yourself. But hey, whatever floats your boat...

I prefer my Guinness with a cloak and a light saber.

Ok, I was close. Hey, I'm an IPA girl!

They started out as one, a "stout porter." I think the porter ended up heartier in one way or another. Neither are traditionally hoppy.

I am glad I have good brakes..and managed to see the damn deer

That's because anyone cheap enough to buy those economy cars, is too broke to have a garage door opener without two legs.

Oh wait, this ain't facebook! So what i will de friend you anyway! Came out pretty cool. I did the chords on the guitar along with the singing then played it back and added the second guitar. Now all I need is a drummer and a real singer. But ya got to sing to keep up with the song. Sounds pretty cool for being all me and my lonesome. Recorded on the little Flip thing so don't be too technical about the sound system.

I liked the guitar video. Who was the awful singer you hired to accompany you?

Gurls Rule....I am voting for me... Smudge will be my VP...DH will be Secretary of State...Airehead will be the Secretary of Defense (nothing gets by those doggies) and Kirby will be the Attorney General because she is wise and fair Roadsue can be in charge of the Department of Education... Am I missing anyone?????

petite, what would you do for a Klondike bar?

My guess is that the first load of US citizens moving to Canuckistan were on the flight. They can smell the fear and despair and are trying to get away. Can you blame them? It would also explain the bear greeting the flight upon landing. Looking for a change of diet.

Both of our Toyota's have it. My prior Toyota had it. I will not get another car without it.
