...I spent most of the day stripping off the olde, sad paint from a not the best, but certainly better than average Atala bicycle. Because it's Italian, and sort of 80's in age and livery, I was thinking about trying one of those "fishnet"/"onion bag" paint jobs on it, because I can ( I think). Anyway, I wanted to google up some images for other examples of the style for color variations, and other approaches that are one color, not a front to rear fade. So I input "italian bicycle fishnet paint" into a Google image search, and up pops my pictures from over in the bikes and gear forum. Right at the top, #1 and #2. So I guess this is what it feels like when you "make it" for your 15 minutes of fame on the internet.Once again, I'd like to thank my mother, and my teachers, and all the little people who work in support roles on these big productions who made this possible. @Redfacedwalrus , a big ol' "S'up ?" to you down there in the basement.6 points

On my way home this morning from McDonald's, I noticed all the hard working squirrels up at daybreak scurrying about preparing for their Sunday. Squirrels are industrious and conservative. Family oriented, they teach the young squirrels early to be self sufficient. I've never seen my family of squirrels disrespecting Sunday by working in their little yards. Instead, you do see them gathering together in the big oak tree to worship then congregate after at the picnic tables for the Sunday meal. Sunday evenings are spent on the porch enjoying each other's company, listening to classical music, and visiting family members from across town. Mom squirrels usually prepare small pies while the young squirrels play tag and the teenage squirrels court each other in the gardens. Squirrels do not put up tents in the yard and demand free aspirin and viagra. Squirrels are early to bed, early to rise, and keep their nests clean and tidy. Father squirrels come home from work and do not keep female squirrels in condos for immoral purposes. Hippie squirrels are rare and shunned by squirrel society. I like squirrels.5 points

Nope. There was enough anger in the room. Wade got them separated. He held Remi. I held Romeo . Ryan got Rascal. Martha threw away the bones. Romeo started it by acting like Serena and stealing all the bones and putting them on his stool. Remi was the tennis official Rascal was Wilbur5 points

I initially thought I was only replacing the women's side of the camp outhouse floor. Then we found out the men's side was bad. HoSmudge said I'm doing that one too. At first I didn't want to, but I'm glad I got to work on both sides. I got the spacing equal on the men's side. The floor actually feels better because of it too. I'm proud to say the only thing HoSmudge did besides advise was to set up the middle posts for the toenailing. HoSmudge let me pick out the tiles. I thought it would be neat to have a wood theme. It was neat until I had to match up the patter. Whoops. The women's side was ready for tile, so I tackled that. The men's side had a trick or two for me, but I got that done also. I think hey are both real nice, solid. Now I'm toying with the idea of a small trim around the edges.4 points

Sorry young lady, you had your ass handed to you in set one and had a temper tantrum that destroyed the rest of your match. Sexism had nothing to do with your loss. The call from a male umpire doesn't mean he is sexist.4 points

It's distasteful to refer to a woman in this way and to call her a bitch as well. Criticise her behaviour if you will, but to use these terms in such a way is disrespectful to women and that includes the women on this forum.4 points

The forum is up in arms over the subject. Notice it still divides along party lines which is rather odd. I just saw Serena the squirrel exit the woods and head toward the feeder. I think I will surprise her and bash her over the head with my 9 iron. No, I can't do that.4 points

Good luck. BTW, you could buy our home that is listed. I guarantee that there are two types of squirrels that live there. We have ground squirrels and tree squirrels.4 points

Good luck. If thT falls through move to NY nod buy my current house. I will leave the lovely French lace window panels, the Victorian settle in the front room, and one Airedale.4 points

Please....please....don't be mean.......give this insignificant individual his little moment in the sun. I ask you....who with any heart at all...could deny him that? Must I always be the conscience of this forum? People are going to see me as one of those "Better than thou" individuals.... and that's not fair.4 points

Realtor says I do not have a prayer but I believe in miracles. It's a lovely house that I have linked to here in the Cafe. I am offering 95% of asking price but requesting all windows be changed to Pella french casements, front door converted to Dutch door, and a Sunbrella automatic retractable awning be installed over the uncovered deck. I want the fabric to be cotton with flowery Victorian roses. It does not have a pool but the yard is almost twice the size of the Airwick cottage grounds. The house is not up to Wilbur standards but is nicer than most hippie shacks and has a much nicer kitchen than Wheels.3 points

I like people who experiment with food. It is how I discovered that sesame seeds are an awesome pizza topping, and how Cheese developed his swiss cake roll milkshake.3 points

I believe there is nothing wrong with sweet and salty as a flavour option. The young lady had perfect form in the dip and no drip action and took a polite size bite. She is a classy woman not an unimaginative, "ranch dip", trollop reporter.3 points

This is untrue. Squirrels are mostly of Anglican descent and protestant. The squirrels use complex mathematical algorithms and formulas to hide their nuts from the thieving liberal raccoons and European squirrels.3 points

We had a peregrine falcon hanging around our bird feeders yesterday. It found one quick meal. A squirrel was also at the bird feeder. The falcon and the squirrel didn't seem to worry about each other. I know that peregrine falcons diet is mostly birds; however, you have to give the squirrel some bad-ass points for being so close to something as fast as the falcon with such sharp claws. One place that I lived as a child had two walnut trees in the back yard. Squirrels were very common there.3 points

It’s been seven years since 17 Amish families left my neighborhood and moved to New York State. We finally have squirrels in our neighborhood. (We call them tree rats). I now have black walnut trees growing everywhere. The squirrels can’t remember where they burry their nuts.3 points

The advantage of a converted delivery van style camper is it's all-in-one: no trailer to drag about and a compact camping style. The disadvantage of a converted delivery van style camper is it's all-in-one: once you set it up and then have to drive anywhere - the store, visit friends, a trail head to far away to bike to - you have to pack up or stow your living space/gear to move the vehicle and then set it up again when you return to your campsite. Wisdom. I've 'ridden the short bus' most of my life. It's a great way to go.3 points

True story. I got suspended for 1 day in high school for defending McEnroe in my history class. I'm not positive, but I think I called Borg a whore. Things would get pretty animated when we'd discuss tennis at my school.2 points

Interesting point about McEnroe. One talking head said that women are considered hysterical and he was just considered win focused. I hate to see anyone act like a poor sport.2 points
