He's now in upper management at a Fortune 500 and she's working on her Masters in Russian Literature. But back in the day they were WAY cool!
That doesn't look like a fat duck to me.
I like the Nike ad with the LeBron and Kobe puppets - the one where Kobe is looking for his THREE championship rings. But Nike took a real chance buying air time with that one. So far so good.
What am I supposed to do with old pills? For example, the oral surgeon wrote me a Rx for Darvon (?) which I filled on my way home last week. I didn't take any of them, so now I have a bottle of 30 of these little mind-benders. Eighteen months ago my Dr. wrote me a Rx for some kind of chill pill after that incident on the plane. He told me to take 1/2 of a pill the next time I flew (a few weeks after going down) because just thinking about what happened could trigger another episode. OK, I did that, realized I didn't need to, and now have a bottle of those, too.
I don't want to keep them around, but what are my options? If I flush them down the toilet a whole lot of fish out in the Pacific are going to be trippin' their way right into Jaw's mouth. I suppose the trash can would work, but even then we're looking at ground water contamination.
Pharmacies should have a buy-back program. Or at least designate the second Saturday of each month Pill Return Day. Like communities have for old paint and the like.
Hey, maybe I should take them down to the Sun City Rec Center. There's a group of old people that always sit at a table over in the corner out by the pool. They wear black spandex and wrap-around shades and smoke funny looking cigarettes. A couple of them have mean lookin' ink. They might pay me a few bucks for these tranks.
Last night we learned that Al does not like thunderstorms. That's not too surprising; a lot of dogs don't like to be inside (confined) during a storm, and he definitely falls in that category.
I LOVE this video! Makes me wish I had my bike back so I could install one of these.

Obama and the Democrats in Congress are working on a "Cash for Clunkers" program that will pay up to $4,500 to anyone who trades in an older, low mileage vehicle to buy a new higher mileage vehicle. The amount you get (it goes straight to the dealer) depends on your old car's age, mileage and the mpg of the car you buy. But I could trade in Stealth Reliabity and get almost anything currently being sold and still qualify for the maximum $4,500. Who but the govt. would pay me that kind of money for a van almost 10 years old with 153,000 miles?
Gotta love this country!
Whadday think? Should Michael Vick be allowed back into the NFL? He gets released to house arrest tomorrow so the issue is on the horizon.
Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see the difference between a guy who makes his living throwing a football and a welder or an insurance salesman. One of the biggest factors in a felon's success after release from prison is their ability to get meaningful work. If an auto mechanic who has served his "debt to society" should be allowed to go back to his profession, why shouldn't a football player? Vick certainly took a hit well beyond his prison sentence. He has filed for bankruptcy (though the judge has rejected his initial plan under Chapter 11) and gone from being a hero on and off the field to the nation's #1 jerk.
I don't understand the basis for denying someone their right to earn a living at their chosen profession if they've done their time and there's no connection between their offense and that profession (e.g. the child molester shouldn't go back to teaching kids). I say let him play.
OK, that second paragraph up above. Should it be "a Rx" or "an Rx"? That depends on how you read Rx. If you see it and say, in your head, Rx - it should be "an." But if you see Rx and read it as "prescription" then it should be "a."
At Pathway last Sunday I pointed out a similar issue. In baseball the abbreviation RBI stands for Run Batted In. If a batter hits a grand slam he gets credited with four Runs Batted In. So why do we say RBI's instead of R'sBI?
Get back to me on that one.

You can feel very safe in flushing your pills down the drain. The wastewater treatment process will completely break down the chemicals into their irreducible components. Most large, urban treatment systems are even capable of dissolving glycols.
Contrary to the advice you may receive, please don't flush the pills down the drain. The attoenys heneral in some states are undergoing a campaign advising folks to grind the pills and place them with coffe grounds or cat litter and dispose in the garbage where they slowly filter in a dump site or, better yet, take them to a pharmacy (some RiteAids take old pills if left in the original container - don't combine them). Fish thank you! CYB
Okay - attorneys general and coffee grounds. Fingers ain't workin' right today.
I vote for letting Pam taking them to work to dump in the bio-hazzard bin so they can go to the incinerator! That way it keeps drinking water safe! IMOHO TT
